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 like the outdoors,hiking,waterfalls,bowling,playing cards, open to watching most sports and participating in a few. I enjoy cooking, watching t.v., dancing, social drinking,making people happy, just hanging out, road trips,holding hands, most anything. I am a very accepting person, I appreciate nature and learning new things. I enjoy country music,rock,blues,just about anything but rap. I accept people for who they are, not their income. I am spontaneous and playful, I am a positive person.I am raising my 12 year old grandson and NOT looking for help in any way, I take great care of him on my own, I have my own income,NOT looking for a 1 night stand or to be "friends" with benefits.Not looking for Mr.Perfect....just perfect for me :) I think the 1st date should be informal and comfortable, a place to talk and get to know each other, its not just about the money spent on the date, but getting to know each other.

Looking for: man. In age: 52-62
I am interested in adventures. I love to dance to most anything with a melody, eat, cook, play.I am a voracious gardener, and love the sun. You can find me at the gym often. I am happy socializing with groups of delightful people and I also like time alone. My friends would describe me as passionate, outgoing, funny, intelligent, hard working, high energy and empathic. Family is important to me. Both yours and mine. Im a pretty happy girl, I love my life, my job, my friends, all Im missing is my partner in crime. My daughter tells me not having a picture is "creepy". So I got pictures. If you see me out and about, I appreciate a smile and a nod, but please dont approach me in person first. It feels toooo wide open. Thanks xo Looking to spend a bit of time having a drink, a walk, a hike, a bike ride, a boat ride, paddling a canoe, go dancing? ice cream cone place, a patio, share a meal. Life is short, we should do what makes us happy. Please no interviews at Timmys, this is not a job application. lol
