About Me

“What should I do about the wild and the tame? The wild heart that wants to be free, and the tame heart that wants to come home. I want to be held. I don't want you to come too close. I want you to scoop me up and bring me home at nights. I don't want to tell you where I am. I want to keep a place among the rocks where no one can find me. I want to be with you.” Jeanette Winterson Handful...searching for someone with big hands....Someone willing to take their hands off the handlebars of life.... and whose world does not drop off at the edge of town...A few important details to consider before contacting me...Some things I have learned are... not to concern myself with most of the worlds problems...It is my opinion that If each of us would take a GENUINE interest in our PERSONAL worlds we would eventually individually and THEN collectively impact the world entirely.....Is that enough ly's?Do Not Misunderstand....My patriotism is unrivaled....LOVE our Country & RESPECT our flag...Believe we owe a LIFEtime debt to every Soldier & Sailor...I have a wall in my home with the word "Remember"...Below it hangs a Picture of "The Wall".... many images of our flag... and the POW bracelet I wore for almost 40 years now framed respectfully in a shadowbox...All Gave Some...Some Gave All....Salute!That the hotter things are...the faster they cool off...Education & Job Titles do not improve your chances for Love...It is your character that defines you...not your career......put zero importance on material things...so, If you Search for someone with a bunch of "stuff" to represent their "worth" or level of success....wrong girl...Beauty can sometimes be a curse....someday...we will all grow old & ugly...in comparison to our younger years...do not let your mirror deceive you...No One "Knows Exactly how you feel" EVER...That a good dog can cure almost any hurt....and singing out loud makes everything better....That If you "fib" about little things...You will Lie about what is important ...If you are not a man of your word....you are not a man....in my opinion...I will willingly return the consideration....Because...I have been careless with a heart....and in turn my heart was broken....now I am Prudent....I still make pictures out of clouds...and wonder what I'll be when I grow up...I would rather know the feeling of the run to 1st base***times than the slide into Home Once.Sometimes you have to swear like a Pirate...Without Fear there would be no Courage....I prefer Campfires over Candlelight...Consideration over Flowers...Actions over Apology'sAnd Affection over Everything!Can't Golf...but willing to drive the Golf cart....Love to fish....I hold the secret citation for "The Large Mouth Limb Fish"....Most comfortable in Jeans & a PonyTail....but willing to be persuaded.... Would Love to learn Guitar & the Timbales...Willing to RE Learn Love....I have been unmarried for almost 32 years....I don't need anyone to take care of me....I am at peace with who I have become...I am comfortable alone....I wish that could change.... I wait for someone who reaches for my hand *** who devours me with his stare....tames me with his touch....and entices me with his Integrity...And likes to kiss...A LOT!Some favorite quotes...."Let me tell you somethin' You already know...; Rainbows...It's a very mean & nasty place & I don't care how tough you are...it will beat you to your knees & keep you there permanently If you let it...You...me...nobody...is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't about how hard you hit....It's about how hard you can GET hit... & keep movin' forward...how much you can take....& keep movin' forward...That's how winnin' is done".... ~~Who I'm searching for.....~~"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat". ~~, "Man in the Arena" Speech given April 23, ***Who I'm searching for....~The man in the Arena~ Define Date....There seems to be some confusion...

    Woman. 53 years old. Zodiac sign: Capricorn.

    Looking for: man. In age: 50-60

    Looking for a man to share the adventure of life~big dreams and daily routine. Educated, intelligent, sincere and self motivated, driven to learn and grow. I believe in mutual respect, communication and honesty. An affectionate, positive man, with an adventurous spirit. Ethnicity is not important, values and moral are. A masculine man as I am a feminine woman and I love the difference. Its that elusive chemistry… a great smile, warm heart, strong hands, a sexy voice, melt my heart. I am energetic, sexy, petite, optimistic, sweet and romantic, a creative person in my work and in life. I dance~salsa and jazz~a lot. As I exercise and am a healthy eater I prefer a man who does the same. I hope to explore Asia. Though a long relaxing weekend in the Caribbean on the beach is also heaven. Please enjoy overseas travel as well.Enjoy movies, long walks, playing pool, dancing. My AM coffee . Enjoy Latin music, R & B, World beats, Classic country, Contemporary, Arias. Learning languages. My cats. Cooking for two or a party. Quiet relaxing nights at home cuddling, out on the town dressed up, passionate kissing.If my words ring true, please say hello in a letter. I don't look at the "wants to meet you" click. No picture = no response. No exceptions. A date that would allow for us to get to know each other.

    Woman. 51 years old. Zodiac sign: Pisces.

    Looking for: man. In age: 48-58

    ABOUT ME: Independent; smart; professional; pretty; friendly; silly; loves to laugh; is passionate about dance; appreciates most music, including tango, big band, classic rock, bluegrass, jazz, and blues; good listener and friend; classy but also down-to-earth; simple, complex, but not complicated (figure that one out!); easily amused; enjoys a good cup of coffee, NPR, and podcasts; sometimes watches too much TV and is willing to admit it in a dating profile; likes to try new things, and is something of a dabbler; not into sports; not especially outdoorsy, though thoroughly enjoys those occasions when I do do that stuff (and laughs whenever I or others say "do do"); knows how to use commas and semi-colons correctly. "My photographs don't do me justice - they just look like me!"; you have an easy, natural charm; you know how to have a TWO-way conversation with a woman; you are nonjudgmental and kind; you are handsome, but not necessarily in a conventional way; you are intelligent, compassionate, and self-aware; you have integrity and patience; you have a silly side and laugh easily; you are able and willing to support yourself, and you do, though I have little interest in what kind of car you drive or what your bank balance is. You are a good and generous friend. You are not jealous, raging, or possessive; you have the courage to be honest even when it's uncomfortable and makes you feel vulnerable.If you choose to reply, answer this question: What does delight mean to you? (and NOT the opposite of de-dark; that one's mine!) Coffee or tea, a shared dessert, and easy conversation.

    Woman. 51 years old. Zodiac sign: Sagittarius.

    Looking for: man. In age: 48-58

    I’m looking for someone who has a great sense of humor, is intelligent, nice, honest and independent. I feel I have the same qualities and want the same in a mate. I’d like to find someone who is secure with themselves and can have a healthy relationship with no drama or jealously.I am pretty reserved and at times that comes across as disinterest. I don't beat around the bush & won't hesitate to speak up. After I get to know someone though, you can't shut me up. :-) I like to do just about anything. Like to learn/try new things. I'd like to learn to paddle board. Not sure where around here you'd do that, but it looks like fun! Not much on the bar scene or dancing. Don't think I'd ever want to jump out of an airplane, but I'd be happy waiting on the ground with the ice cold beer if you do! Haha!! I get along with pretty much anyone. I'm hoping to find someone who will make me laugh, someone who just thinking about them makes me smile. My soul mate. I still believe it can happen.
