Woman. 40 years old. Zodiac sign: Taurus.
Looking for: man. In age: 37-47
love to laugh, dance around my kitchen barefoot, play in the rain and listen to good music, especially if it's live! Good friends, good food, good wine (or beer depending on the mood), good conversation. Honestly? I want pretty much what everyone wants: to date someone and see where it leads, hopefully with the end result of a loving, healthy, happy relationship. If nothing else, maybe we find the love our life or a best friend... or both.My dad tells me that the guy I choose to be with is in for a handful and that I'll always keep the guy on his toes. I am pretty sure he meant it lovingly as he said it with a smile! Family is very important to me so if you want to date me, be prepared for me to talk about them a lot. I was raised in the center of ACC basketball country so that is a big part of my life. I also have a love of golf. I have played golf with my dad since I was 4 so it'd be nice if you're a sports lover! I am compassionate, empathetic, gentle, funny - so I've been told - and pretty much a happy-go-lucky girl. I believe that everyone we meet in life is a teacher and a student, always something to teach as well as learn. I also am pretty free-spirited and a bit of a hippie girl at heart. I love life and do what I can to live it to the fullest. I've never met a challenge I back down from. I'm laid back and independent, goofy and happy, serious when I need to be, loving and loyal. I would like someone to see and appreciate that. IMy ideal guy would be open to and enjoy all these things, as well as passionate, fun, playful, supportive, great sense of humor with an even temper and maybe even a tad bit of a romantic. It'd be really perfect to meet/date someone who is independent, happy, stable, gentle, kind, smart, funny and attentive. The rest is just bonus! Be open to what could happen, not clingy and certainly not pushy.Please don't tell me you think I'm beautiful... I don't want to be wooed with that. Don't get me wrong. It's nice to hear, but I rather you have a real conversation with me. I rather be wow'd with your intelligence, not pretty words or**** behavior. Get to know me. There's much more to me than blonde hair and blue eyes. It needs to be said that my school schedule is very important as I am near the end of finishing my Bachelor of Arts in Public Relations/Social Science (double major) that I have worked very hard for. I also have plans to earn my MLA when that is completed.Dog lover a must! I have 2 dogs that are very important to meFair warning: I'm very strong willed, but also soft-hearted. I have always been the woman that takes care of everyone. I had to be strong. I can hold my own, but I would like to share my life with someone special who understands me and allows me to understand them. And takes care of me when I need it, too!Remember, there's a huge difference in want and need... I'm very happy with who I am in this world. I don't need a relationship, but I would like to have someone permanent and dependable in my life. I look forward to hearing from you and seeing what happens! Cheers! Ideal would be a picnic at the park at sunset

I can be a little shy and reserved at first, but before long I'll be joking and laughing up a storm. You'll find I am a good listener, honest communicator, supportive friend, and I surround myself with people who are as well.I'm driven by intellectual pursuits and my career, but I also enjoy being active, working out at least 3 times a week (mostly Zumba). Nothing is more important than friends and family.- the neighborhood festivals, the restaurants, the theatre, the virtual absence of snow! What's not to like? (Don't say "the traffic"!)In my free time I enjoy watching movies, tv, and live theater, Zumba, Pilates, swimming, trying new restaurants, going to baseball games, playing trivia games, cooking, golfing, and reading. Favorite bands - Ben Folds (Five), Weezer, 10,***Maniacs, Matt Nathanson and the like. Also gotta love the classics like The Beatles and Stevie Wonder!Movies - Mob movies and comedies! The Godfather and Anchorman are both brilliant in their own rights!TV -Sports - Baseball and basketball for watching. (Go, Cubs, go!) For doing it's cycling, hiking, and swimming. My ideal match will share most of my interests, broaden my horizons with additional interests, and challenge me intellectually. He'll appreciate that I'm independent, successful and grounded because he is, too. We'll have both witty banter and serious talks as we get to know each other. Ok, I've thrown a lot out there - probably too much - so I'll leave you with this:Overall, my friends describe me as being smart, funny and compassionate. If that's the type of person you're looking for, write to me! The actual activity of the first date could be lots of things - bar trivia, baseball game, museum visit, bowling, etc. What's important that it allows for conversation but also provides an activity to take off any pressure. If we're a good match, we'll have fun doing just about anything!

Woman. 39 years old. Zodiac sign: Pisces.

I'm a very liberal, open-minded native Washingtonian looking to meet new people to date. I'm a psychotherapist in private practice, so if you aren't psychologically-minded and self-reflective, don't bother contacting me (sorry if that sounds really harsh). I'm incredibly independent, caring, and loyal. I believe in being authentic and genuine as much as is humanly possible, so I usually tell it like it is. I am also ridiculously organized and never forget a birthday ;-)Although I consider myself an intellectual, I also have a place in my heart for reality TV and silly pop culture.Having spent my entire life at a local private school, I have been blessed to know many of my best friends since elementary school. I am incredibly close to my family and consider my sister one of my best friends. I truly believe that happiness/joy starts from the inside out so I spend a lot of time working on myself. I'm tempted to write something on here about only wanting to connect with guys who've had some experience in therapy/counseling, but I realize that's a bit much!! If you aren't interested in knowing yourself more fully, then you're not the person for me. If you're a guy who thinks men shouldn't talk about or show their feelings, we aren't a good match. I'm looking for someone who is comfortable with himself and can show love and affection for the people around him.For me, life is about being present in the moment, taking (small) risks, and being vulnerable with the people who have earned the right to see that vulnerability. I try to have as many belly laughs as possible and consider a good day one that involves ice cream!I love yoga, the gym, photography, beaches, Target (said only with a French accent), all things purple, and bear hugs. I believe that the true judge of a man's character is how he treats those who can do nothing for him.I love going to the movies, trying new restaurants, going to a football/hockey/ baseball game, people watching, drinking wine, walks on the canal, visiting the monuments at night, and laughing until my stomach hurts.I like guys who are optimistic yet jaded, self-deprecating yet confident, funny yet thoughtful. I like guys who want to talk politics and pop culture. I like guys who are curious and ask thoughtful questions. I like guys who love football but don't spend 20 Sundays a year caring about every single game just because they have a fantasy team. I like guys who love their moms but aren't momma's boys. I like guys can be vulnerable without being overly needy. I like guys who aren't threatened by an intelligent, confident woman. Tanzania, and Ghana. Although I am dying to see other parts of the world (Thailand, South Africa) I've never met a Caribbean island I didn't love. I've climbed Mt. I like getting dressed up, but I like the feeling of getting into my pj's at the end of the night just as much. I like being with people and being alone.Motherhood is the hardest thing I've everdone and the most important. It has humbled me with its challenges and its joys. I try to push myself to take small steps outside my comfort zone in order to grow and learn more about myself and the people around me. Sometimes I stumble but I rarely regret having tried. I truly do believe that it is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all. My greatest fear in life is that I will be 80 years old kicking myself that I didn't slow down, breathe, and just "be." I am a former-perfectionist who now focuses on whether I showed up with courage, not how well I did or didn't do. I truly hope I can *** value in my children above all else.My friends describe me as loyal, dependable, sarcastic, passionate, funny, strong, sweet, and feisty. I know I gesticulate too much when I talk and am overly confident about my skills on the dance floor. I know I try to surround myself with people with whom I can be my full self. I am incredibly passionate about social justice and truly believe that "injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere."If you're still reading my profile, Mazel Tov! If my psycho-babble doesn't seem like babble, then I'd love to hear from you! Coffee, drinks, or a nosh!
