About Me

Thanks for stopping by and reading my profile! How do I describe myself? Independent, confident, cheerful, outgoing, honest, conscientious, generous, positive, sporty, humorous, somewhat ambitious, adventurous, direct and genuine. My family and friends are important to me and I enjoy spending as much time as possible with them. I am very active and exercise is a big part of my life. It keeps me healthy, young in mind, body and spirit and sane! For activities, I enjoy many outdoor sports like hiking, cross-country skiing, swimming, running (although currently injured) snowshoeing, etc. Indoors, it's the gym ***x/week. I also enjoy attending or watching sporting events. As much as I love being active, I also enjoy relaxing at home catching up on "stuff", watching movies, reading, cooking for others, whatever! I like to have fun and love to make people laugh, never taking life too seriously, though I do have a serious side when necessary. Most importantly, I'm an honest, fun, trustworthy, and a straight forward gal. I'd like to share life's future journey with the right person...definitely one of my favorite spots to play and explore when not working or doing things locally. I'd enjoy spending time with someone who has similar interests although I'm open to new adventures and experiences! All my photos are recent, with the oldest being two years. Lastly, I do believe that friendship and chemistry must exist between two people for a relationship to be successful. Friendship is the foundation of a lasting relationship and is important before taking the relationship to the next level. If we go out and find friendship and chemistry is lacking, we gave it a try, hopefully enjoyed each others company and had some fun! Thanks for reading and good luck with your search! My first date would be something simple, like a cup of coffee or a drink. It's a good way to get to know each other, without pressure or expense and will hopefully determine if there might be a second date! If we find chemistry is lacking, hopefully we enjoyed each other's company and had some fun!

    Enter with caution!!!....Grrrrrrrrrrrrr....Only respond if you are respectful, ambitious and tenacious in your endeavors, love family, and take care of yourself in all areas of your life! life is good if you get how precious it is! My partner will be able to roll with the punches... have confidence but don't be a jerk! I'm looking for that smile... oh that smile... Relationships are life, I value my long standing friendships and love my family dearly. SMILE...the imagination is so intriguing, is he a safe place to be? is he able to listen but he does not need to fix everything? I handle most on my own and will if needed, I work hard and believe me when I say I "PLAY" hard! Oh, alittle secret about myself I love to lay on a man's chest as he strokes my lion's mane. Let's banter about life's important issues but not get too carried away. I'm attracted to spontaneous, intelligent, independent, creative and confident men! I will express the way I feel about my partner and he will know he has my attention! He will also know I "Have his back" as this comes with "Trust" I have this wild sassy side it will take a very secure man to be with me.....the question is...can he handle it? Be a bit of a bad boy? But......You must be a really good Man! oh, my did I lose a few...lol? a little FYI guys from my perspective, character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved!It is not the easy or convenient life for which I search but life lived to the edge of all I can be! First dates are interesting in so many ways. My thoughts are relax and enjoy the conversation! what could be more fun than meeting new people as everyone has life's experiences to share.......May the best man win!

    Woman. 54 years old. Zodiac sign: Scorpio.

    Looking for: man. In age: 51-61

    I am a woman of simple needs and desires, who would love to form a relationship with someone who can treat a woman with respect and appreciation. I will bring friendship, fun, and engaging conversation to a relationship, and I am looking for a companion with similar interests. I am an educator so it goes without saying that I adore children and enjoy helping others. I am very creative, can make almost anything by hand, and I love to learn new things. Summer is my favorite season because everything is alive and beautiful, and there is so much to do, especially since there are festivals every weekend. I love to sit on a quiet pier and fish and can filet what I catch! I am active and I try to get out and run a few times a week to keep stress at bay and to center myself. And, I try to get in a few 5K runs per year just to keep myself motivated. I am not into the bar scene, but I do enjoy a good pub burger and microbrew occasionally. The night life does not appeal to me, but rather quiet evenings at home or walking around town just to enjoy the night time solace are what I enjoy most.**********************************************REVISION: PLEASE READ*********************************************************************************** Hello again, and thank you for making an attempt to find a real connection. After writing my first intro, I felt I really didn’t say what I wanted to convey about myself and my goal for entering the online dating scene. I was a bit hesitant with this format, as we all can say ANYTHING online, but the face-to-face thing, I have discovered, is quite different. First, and foremost, I am looking for a friend, and I am hoping you will become my best friend. I came out of a long term relationship and learned a lot about myself, my needs, and my desires. I am not looking for short term, roll-in-the hay type encounters. So, if that is your intention, I am not for you. I am looking for an active participant in my life, and that may include the rest of my life, if we make the connection that so many of us want so badly, but I have values and love and respect for each other comes first. I am not a fan of winter, but I do love those quiet evenings when all you can hear is the gentle sound of giant flakes coming down… I run a couple of times a week and strive to be in the “10,***steps a day” club. I took up running four years ago- bucket list thing-and find running to be a great stress reliever and I believe we all should eat healthy and stay active. I recently graduated from college-another bucket list thing-and I believe it is important to continue to learn as long as you can. It keeps you young, sharp, and well, engaged in the world. I work in kindergarten and I can color up a storm, and often come home with glitter littering my hair. I never run out of hugs, nor patience, and education is my passion and purpose in life. I am a simple, down-to-earth person. No drama, no mask, I am what I am, and I will not play games or try to give you a false impression. Like everyone, honesty and open conversation is key to a healthy, happy relationship. I am tired of doing things alone and seriously, life is meant to be shared. I want to be appreciated for what I bring to a relationship, as a compliment to you, not a competition to show I am better than you. I want you to teach me your loves in life, and I want to teach you mine. Resourcefulness is part of what I am. I know how to do many things on my own, and if I don’t know how to do something, I will figure it out eventually. However, the one thing I have trouble with is finding a person who has the same values and desires as I do. I am quite adaptable to many situations, and appearance is secondary to personality and moral standards. Simply stated, you treat people how you would like to be treated. We all have faults, and a certain amount of history (or baggage), but life is all about second chances, learning from our mistakes (hopefully), and being able to hike up our pants and move forward and be abetter person for the lesson learned. If you read through my intro, and you really feel like I am what you have been looking for in life, then by all means, please contact me. If you are only attracted to my face, well, I can guarantee that part of me will change as the years go on. However, my spirit and soul will always be a constant: warm, kind, and caring. Always. The best first date should be meeting at a public place where we can talk. A screaming bar scene is not as effective as a walk along the shore or through a park, or at corner pub/coffee shop table, in my opinion.
