About Me

Ideally, I'd like to meet someone fantastic, get to know him without pressure, eventually discover that we're both crazy about each other, and walk off into the sunset with him. ;-) Fortunately, I have a solid game plan until that happens! Intrigued? Please read on. I love hanging out with friends wherever they happen to gather. I love boating so much that I'm willing to suffer through applying and reapplying the sunscreen. I love conversations that slowly wind around you like a soft, comfortable blanket and lull you into talking until the small hours of the morning. I love dinner with friends where we have "save the world" discussions in raised voices punctuated with our hands banging, like gavels, on the table. I love road trips. I love going to piano bars to sing along with the performers... Even in an especially zealous fit of logical angst, I KNOW the world of human choice is paved in a kaleidoscope of grey rather than black and white. As much as I can embrace rules and structure, you will not like me if your glasses show you a black and white view of life. Trust me. What I'm working on in my life: Learning to accept help from good friends as I realize that I cannot, in fact, shoulder everything by myself. Feeling incredibly thankful for where I am, whom I know and like and love, and what I have and do not have. Wondering why people brag that they are brutally honest. What could possibly be laudable about being "brutally" anything? How about compassionately honest. That's what I want to be--and that's the kind of person I'd like to be around. Giving myself permission to stop feeling like I need to prove some random things to some random people. Giving myself permission to stop over-thinking everything. Travel. "And now that you don't have to be perfect, you can be good." John Steinbeck I'm really good at the following : Giving bad news to people, strangers and friends alike. I'm excellent on the phone, and I have a knack for helping people hear the news, process things, and gear up to make a plan. Being logical, making lists, explaining things, helping people push through the emotion in something in order to figure out how to cope or how to fix it. This means I'm less good at sitting with you in your pain. I want to fix it. I want you not to hurt. I want to make sure you're happy, even though I know it isn't my job. I'm working on being better at this, but I think it's important flaw to admit to potential romantic partners :-). Please drop me a note if the following are true: You're confident in your ability to get things done. You have a healthy curiosity for learning new things and going to new places. You find your life can be busy to the point of chaos, and you've realized you kind of like it that way. You're happy with yourself--what you've done and where you've been. You're excited about the future, but you'd like to find someone with whom you can share the fun. You don't just *enjoy* physical intimacy with a partner ***you *need* it to have a successful relationship. Or run over to my house to taste the perfect scone. Or grab an impromptu meal or coffee or movie or hike. A couple of important notes are as follows : I do not have children, and I am not interested in raising any as a mother. I'm thrilled with the idea of being friend and mentor, and possibly an eventual step-mother, but if you want someone with whom you can have more children, I am not she. If this is a problem, then you may want to refrain from contacting me. Coffee and conversation without any pressure. Do not contact me if you do not have a photo posted on your profile. I've found a shocking number of men on this site are married and cheating. If you do not have a photo, you'll need to have an excellent reason and a method of proving it :-)

    I try my best to be good at a variety of different things rather than exerting all of my energy towards one aspect of my life. Search for energetic person, who hasn’t yet got tired of fun.

    I am looking for a friend first to do fun things with and would be open to a relationship if the chemistry is just right I'm at a point in my life where I want to meet people who are real, authentic.Would like to meet someone who is cheerful and positive, with a zest for life. Someone who takes care of himself and values family,Nothing beats cuddling on the couch and watching a good movie!I am comfortable being single but feel it would be even better to meet someone to share my life with. I feel I have a lot to offer. :)Thanks for taking the time to read my profile and good luck! I won't likely reply to a profile without a picture. Sorry! Je parles aussi le francais ! We can decide together...

    I'll keep this simple... I'm looking for someone to spend some time with on occasion and if we're lucky it will develop into something special for both of us over time. I'm in no rush, just want to get it right this time.I'm serious about making a effort towards something great... I really do want to knock it out of the ball park the next time. I don't think that is too much to ask and I'm willing to wait for the right person. My current life keeps me busy and I do like my independence. Great things don't happen overnight, so I expect you to be patient and honest as things move forward.I'm looking for someone whose life is settled and has little baggage(kids are completely acceptable). Ideally I think that the right man would bring to the table some of the same things that I have to offer... Good luck on your search! Please provide a pic if one is not on your profile.. no pic, no reply. Me - I'd have a hot tea... you - perhaps a coffee or another beverage... nice casual setting. Good conversation. The realization that conversation in person is nicer now that we've gotten to know one another on the phone/computer - but not looking for a pen pal. Meeting as soon as we know we have a connection is important to move forward. Laughter is a must. Hoping that all goes well - we'd share a warm hug and agree that seeing each other again would be something to look forward to!
