Woman. 54 years old. Zodiac sign: Pisces.
Looking for: man. In age: 51-61
I am a woman, a mother, and successful career professional who is in love with life, the warmth of the sun on my skin, and the beauty of nature. I maxed out my retirement at my job with 34 years of creditable service and I retired as of July 1, ***. While I do think I can adjust to this new lifestyle, I expect it to be temporary and do intend to return to work until my youngest son is through college. For now I'm decompressing, having some fun, doing some house projects (yes, I'm quite handy for a lady) and eventually I'll seek employment again. I'm not a lady who sits idle, so for me busy is good and my guy needs to be able to keep up the pace.I thrive on soaking up the sun, love digging in the dirt to see what flowers I can grow or landscaping project I can undertake. I enjoy live music, sports, almost anything that takes me outside, arts, traveling, family time, fine dining, casual entertaining, the beach and the mountains. The beach recharges me and time at my mountain house provides down time, fresh air and is always a nice weekend get away. In ***I was introduced to the fun of couples dancing and came to enjoy East & West Coast Swing, and a few other dances. If you enjoy couples dancing, you get bonus points and if you love swing, then double points for you, as I really do want to dance regularly again.Having lost loved ones, I know how fragile life can be. I value life, family, honesty, health. I try to be positive, make the most of each moment, eat healthy, exercise and work hard at everything I do. I made the switch to a vegetarian diet June ***. I value both organic and vegan diets, but am far from those diets at this point. I have no expectations of a vegetarian partner, but I do want a partner who will encourage me to exercise as I continue my journey to a healthier lifestyle. I work hard to remain at my ideal weight, am far from perfect and don't seek perfection, but I'm not attracted to men who are over weight. Therefore, I seek a slim, toned or athletic individual, not someone significantly over weight.I am emotionally and financially stable, so I don't "need" but do "want" a relationship. The quality man I seek should be of similar age, and understand that with a 17 year old son, I am first a mom. While dating, I hope to meet someone with whom I can eventually build a trusting relationship with a view toward an eventual long term exclusive relationship. That having been said, I seek a man who is happy, makes me laugh, values nutrition, health, shares values, pleasures, respects me and is a true gentleman. I want my partner to know how to dress when we go out, to know and use manners, open doors for me and his reassuring arm on me should give me that, "I am his his lady" feeling. Don't be mistaken, he should have enough bad boy in him to cause me to smile and shake my head in amazement at times. A beginning with physical attraction, common interests, friendship, laughter, respect and trust should be a great foundation for a solid friendship and potential relationship. My children include a married daughter, a son age 21 and a son age 17, who have always been the center of my world. My daughter graduated college, works and gave our family a beautiful child Nov ***. My oldest son is a Senior at UGA this fall (Go Dawgs!) and my youngest son is a Junior in high school. As I reflect, their childhood days have passed at lightening speed. I'm enjoying the last couple of years with a son still home, yet beginning to consider and embrace the many transitions ahead, this new phase of life....retirement, returning to the work force for a second but brief career, and the youngest son eventually leaving the nest.I am a woman with many skills,enjoy order, a well maintained yard and home. I'm comfortable in jeans/shorts and a "T", but also have an assortment of little black dresses, heels and jewelry to dress up and join you on the town. I love concerts, dancing, live music, or a quiet evening at home with my man sharing a beer by the pool or a bottle of wine as we make dinner. I want to meet my new best friend, and eventual long term partner. We are not all going to have that essential chemistry or be partners, but I will try to respond to those who contact me, for everyone deserves words and acknowledgement.I never planned to grow old alone and I still don't; However, I won't settle, so this search seems to be long and ongoing. Thanks for reading my profile. God's speed on your journey and may good health and happiness be abundant in your life as we each search for that one person who may become our life partner. "It is a funny thing about life; if you refuse to accept anything but the best you very often get it". ~W. A coffee shop in the morning, a restaurant for lunch, an appetizer, a beer, a glass of wine, dinner, a frozen yogurt or a walk in the park. Anything goes as long as it affords both the opportunity to determine if we each wish to spend additional time together. Following us meeting, if we wish to see one another again, a first date could be anything we mutually decide. Surprise me and make a suggestion!

I am a very sweet, affectionate, and caring girl that is looking for the "right" relationship. Typically, I have a smile on my face, as I tend to see the humor in most situations. I married my first true love and it lasted 23 years. I am not a player or looking for someone to take me out to dinner each night -just seeking a long-term monogamous relationship with someone who is fun, loving, and affectionate. I'm an independent, normal, and sane lady looking for the same in a gentleman. Surely, there are a few of those out there. :) I am a very logical and level-headed person, so I'm pretty low maintenance. My ex and I get along and we work well together when dealing with issues that affect the kids. My children are 17 and 22, so perhaps I should have just said my daughter. She's a senior in high school and pretty self-sufficient. I enjoy just about anything with the right person. I grew up 15 minutes from the beach, so that's a favorite, but I love exploring the mountains as well. I lead a pretty active life and like it that way, so if you're a total couch potato, I don't think we'll make a good match. I'm a very young 52 year old - from the way I look to the way I act. My faith is important to me and I hope your faith is important to you. It's the basis for any good relationship. I faithfully attend 12 Stone Church and usher each week. Country and Contemporary Christian music are my favorites, but I enjoy rock and other types of music as well. If you drink to excess or are a drug user, please pass me by. I've watched that train wreck before and it is heartbreaking.If you think we may be a match, I would love to hear from you, but if not, I truly hope you find what you're looking for. :) A walk in a well populated park is always nice. Best case scenario is that there is great conversation and chemistry. It's a win-win because even if it doesn't work out, we'll get some fresh air and exercise. -or-Lunch or coffee (or dinner if we're feeling it) in a quaint location

I have been very busy raising my 5 children since the untimely death of their father. Don' t push the delete button too quickly, three of them have graduated college with very fulfilling careers and families, one is a senior in college and the only boy is in high school. I guess it is time for me to meet someone so I am waiting for a shift to take place and hoping to meet someone special.
