Woman. 51 years old. Zodiac sign: Aries.
Looking for: man. In age: 48-58
I am interested in dating a confident man who enjoys the company of a confident fun loving woman. Would love to meet someone who makes me laugh and laughs at themselves. A sense of humor is a big bonus and positive mental attitude a must. I enjoy all types of music and open to anything that involves a little adventure. Recently relocated from NY. I am looking forward to creating a new and exciting next Chapter! I love to travel and can be incredibly spontaneous when it means getting away to some place new and different. I enjoy being around friends and family but also enjoy a quiet romantic night at home. I can be sexy, sporty or elegant whatever the occasion calls for. I enjoy all seasons but really love the warm weather. I'm a career woman but looking forward to the Beach Life! I'm a girly girl but love to watch sports too. March Madness is one of my fav times of year. The ideal first date would be a casual meet for a cold drink or a morning coffee.

I love thunderstorms and the wind howling and the desert and deep woods. I like to watch sports with a man who knows a lot about them and likes even better, to play them. I love to dance and pray and get my hands in the dirt. I love action movies, old westerns, Shakespeare and slap-stick comedies. I love to see what is just around the bend and be in my jammies by 8. I am cheerful at 5am sans caffeine. I love the sound of a motorcycle reving up under an overpass just because and the deep voice of a man whispering in my ear for the same reason. I prize humility, courage, loyalty, perseverance in a man as I do in myself. I love a man with arms like an anvil and fists like a sledgehammer. And the wisdom to know when to use them and when to count to ten.My father and my son are the two men I have loved and respected most and when I was encouraged by a trusted friend to list 20 attributes I was looking for in someone, I found as I compiled it, that it was a composite of them. Here it is: 1. Between 6'1" and 6'5" in height. 2. Dark blonde hair. 3. Green eyes. 4. Athletically built and a life-long devotee of physical training. 5. Intelligent AND wise (they are not the same!). 6. Well-spoken and well-read. 7. In possession of a quick wit and enjoying poking fun at himself the most. 8. Gifted musically - able to play at least two ***, one of them being either the piano, the guitar, or the bagpipes. 9. Hard-working, personally frugal, but generous to those less fortunate.10.11. A Boy Scout.12. Clean in body - abstaining from all tobacco and recreational drug use. A rare intake of alcohol. 13. A warrior - skilled in a variety of weapons.14. A supporter of Israel.15. Devoted to his mother and courteous towards the female members of the family.16. Gentle and kind to animals and children.17. A man among men -18. Reverent - a fervent love for God encompassing body, mind, and spirit. 19. Faithful - able to withstand temptation, honoring his own integrity.20. Love me in word and deed. I took this list to my father, along with the profiles of the 30 men I thought most commendable. Though he was undergoing radiation and enduring much pain, his ***'s mind was as sharp as ever. He narrowed it down to just three.As I helped my father from his wheelchair to his bed, this man leaped up and lifted him effortlessly, but in doing so, his bounded hair became undone and cascaded over my father's face. And the man who was so "old school", who got his hair trimmed every two weeks, reached up and combed his fingers through the long tendrils and said, "It is so beautiful, Tom. Don't ever cut it." Then my father motioned for me to put a CD on, one of his favorites - "Wild Horses". When it was finished, he took Tom's hand and with tears streaming, softly said, "I have played this for her. Now, you will play it."Two weeks later my father died and joined my son. I was alone now in the world and the man with the beautiful hair had compassion on me and took me under his wing. He is in possession of many, perhaps most of these qualities. Odysseus was not the first, nor the last man to have his ship turned about... ; )But I will say this - every now and then, as I do the dishes, he gets out his guitar and plays "Wild Horses".And most of the time, "Nothing Else Matters..." It's message is one I keep remembering as I wait on Odysseus, the one who would be Anam Cara...to me.KINDNESSBefore you know what kindness really isyou must lose things, feel the future dissolve in a momentlike salt in a weakened broth.What you held in your hand,what you counted and carefully saved,all this must go so you knowhow desolate the landscape can bebetween the regions of kindness.Before you learn the tender gravity of kindness,you must travel where the Indian in a white poncholies dead by the side of the road.You must see how this could be you, how he too was someonewho journeyed through the night with plansand the simple breath that kept him alive.Before you know kindness as the deepest thing inside,you must know sorrow as the other deepest thing.You must wake up with sorrow.You must speak to it till your voicecatches the thread of all sorrowsand you see the size of the cloth.Then it is only kindness that makes any sense anymore, only kindness that ties your shoesand sends you out into the day to mail letters and purchase bread,only kindness that raises its headfrom the crowd of the world to sayIt is I you have been looking for,and then goes with you everywherelike a shadow or a friend. Well, I do like creativity and adventure... ; )

Since the passing of my husband I have become interested in several different things. I enjoy dancing and just going out for a drink (not even one every six months). At any time of the day I would love to take a ride on the back of a motorcycle, short or long drives, it does not matter to me. I enjoy going to the movies or curling up on the couch for a TV show (NCIS or CSI). However, I do enjoy home life as well. A night in works just as well, just sitting around talking up into the night. I love to shop, however, spending money is not my thing, I enjoy window shopping more than anything. My goals at this point in my life is to have a long term relationship with someone that shares my interest. Just as well, I am as comfortable in jeans as I am in dress clothes. I have a very firm foundation in every other aspects of my life, expect in this. I am under five feet tall, and have calf length brown hair. Those two facts makes me unique and as well as gets alot of attention. And of course, there is no one else like me. I really enjoy music and notjust one style or type. From rock to the TSO as well as county. On my first date with someone new I would like it to be like this. I would like to meet for a cup of coffee or a nice dinner, at a quite little place where we can sit and talk to get to know each other.
