About Me

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.

    I\'m a little old fashioned, sentimental and sweet. I like cooking, small gatherings, local art and wine festivals. I need the right person to build a life with, someone to rely on.

    I love to laugh and have been told I have a very wicked sense of humor. I am very involved in the VFW Auxiliary and Operation Support Our Troops. I feel very strongly about supporting our Troops. I love to watch movies and enjoy reading. I enjoy traveling...even roadtrips. Even though I am happy to chill at home, I do like to get out and do things. I am not into games...say what you mean and mean what you say. First date is all about getting to know one another and to hopefully do it in a relaxed and easy atmosphere.

    Hi! I'm a hard working, usually responsible, deep thinking, self analyzing, artistic person. I have pets and plants that keep me grounded. My daughters are grown and living elsewhere, although I will drop everything when they call. My yard is now taking a lot of my time-could use assistance. lol I have a great sense of humor, am a bit opinionated and persevere through tough times. I try to see the best in people and remain optimistic despite life's twists and turns.Traveling is one of my favorite activities. I have European roots and have been to Europe and India. I enjoy dinner, dancing, the beach, movies and live theatre. We can take in a museum or walk through a state park. I want to work on fitness this year and need some guidance in this department. .My church and faith are important to me.; heavy metal or rap makes me crazy and Marley makes me lazy, but other than that anything goes.-type shows, classical, bluegrass or country and want to upgrade to smaller venues with talented Indie artists. I enjoy movies-usually action, romantic comedies, dramas or sci-fi-not horror. Many cuisines are appealing to me, including Italian, Seafood, Mexican or traditional Southern fare, but I especially like restaurants that cook better than I do. I'll even sample your cooking, bring wine and do the dishes. I've never been to a comedy club, but love to laugh so would probably enjoy that.Most gentlemen are into outdoor activities. The arts and sports don't usually mix, but my association with band allows me to follow the plays of football and basketball. I also would like to see the Hurricanes in action or a Panthers game. I'm scared to get involved with golf, because I'd probably become obsessed-have never held a club. I windsurfed once and loved it, even though I got wet a lot. I also love to feel the breeze on a boat and would enjoy kayaking-just haven't had the time or equipment. I'll walk pretty much anywhere in the sunlight, but wouldn't go rock climbing or rappelling. I love snow but have never been skiing or skating. If you don't mind a tight hug, I'd ride a motorcycle. I would love to ride horses but I do not care for NASCAR, hunting or tractor pulls. To me, a relationship involves mutual respect, truly caring about the other person and romance. I can appreciate friendship or being swept off my feet, but for the long haul, a relationship needs both. I'm looking for someone honest, funny, romantic and intelligent. Someone with kind eyes and a genuine smile.) I may have to check which ACC team you pull for...-If I showed you my dark side, would you run away? OOps, not supposed to go too deep on these profiles...I lean toward the liberal side but teach my students patriotic values. I figure we're here (on earth, not the site) to make a difference, learn new things and build up others while following the golden rule. Do you still have dreams? Want adventures? I'd like to continue on life's journey in tandem. Then walk around downtown to see the veteran's memorial park. If conversation is still moving along, have an ale at Huske Hardware or a chardonnay at Pierro's. Then follow up with coffee, etc. afterwards to be still and talk.If life were a movie, I'd follow you through the labyrinth of a beautiful forest until we got to the center of the maze where you had set up a nice meal with candles and wine.
