Woman. 50 years old. Zodiac sign: Aries.
Looking for: man. In age: 47-57
I have a lot of energy, so I like to keep myself busy. Owning my own farm, raising two older children, and working with kids all day, keeps me busy! Growing up on a farm has taught me hard work. But I am never too busy to enjoy myself. I love being outside as much as possible. In the winter, I like walking, ice fishing, snow mobiling and snow shoeing. In the summer, I like to work on fixing up my property, water sports, fishing, walking, gardening, etc. All year, I work out at the gym. Because I am a teacher, I have all summer off. I have plenty of time to do these things and more!I am never too busy to hang out with my friends, family, and dates. I enjoy eating out, shopping, pit stops at a few watering holes, movies, traveling, etc, with them. Most Sunday mornings are for attending church (if I am not too tired from the week-end).There never seems to be enough time in a day to do all the things I want to do!!! When going out for a first date, I would probably like to have coffee or maybe even dinner. It is easier to get to know a person when you are somewhere that you can have conversation.

I am a hopeless romantic looking for sparks, chemistry, etc. Having that magnetic connection is my only criteria…it’s either present when two people meet or it’s not. I am not looking to rush in to anything more than establishing a friendship to get to know one another. For me, half the fun is the anticipation of what could be once that spark is *** about me and what I am hoping to find in a man…So me, this is hard. I do not like to shine the light on myself and avoid being in the public spotlight whenever possible. That said, I can adapt to almost any situation…from public speaking to welcoming compliments when required. People that are close to me would say I am loyal and committed to those I love. Honesty, trust, and generosity are values I live by and seek in others.I consider myself a handful…hence the “brave man” caveat. I have high expectations…I’m ambitious, independent, active, and make the most out of every day, situation, opportunity, etc. I’ve been known to get too absorbed (okay, self-absorbed) with work or doing menial tasks. I benefit from being around someone who is able to distract me with humor and spontaneity. I have a strong personality…I can hold my own when needed. I do best with men who are easygoing, but who can also put me in my place. Though I don’t necessarily like to be told what to do or hear the word no, it’s kind of a turn-on in a twisted sort of way. I’ll stop there. At this point in my life, I am ready to throw caution to the wind. I have ditched my checklist of what to look for in a man and *** opted to follow my heart (and yes I feel stupid saying that as I’ve always made decisions with my head…over thinking things and being way too cautious).…did I mention I’ Qualities I admire in a man include a sense of humor, good taste without being pompous, someone who values a dollar but doesn’t lose sleep over money spent…I don’t do cheap, but respect a man who is practical and who lives within his means. I appreciate someone who enjoys the finer things in life though comes across as low-key and casual…a man who’ Ideally, a person that has the tendency to be calm and collective in tense situations, treats people kindly (never rude), avoids taking life or self too seriously, and has the ability to laugh in uncomfortable/tough situations. I know that’s a tall order…I did mention high expectations somewhere in this write-up. So the other half of the equation is the ability to be flexible, open-minded and forgiving……being able to make amends and overall keeping ones ego and heart in check.Yup, there’s more…a guy who is independent. Someone who enjoys alone time just as much as being together. And when together, doesn’t mind being spoiled just a bit. I am not one to talk on the phone at great lengths but appreciate a man who can communicate. Oh and someone who is liberal enough to allow me to pick up a tab or take charge from time to time…you fill in the dots. Though I consider myself tolerant and open-minded, there are a few traits that I wouldn’t be able to overlook…racism/prejudice, superiority complex, over inflated egos, substance abuse, cruelty, dishonesty, and promiscuity. I feel I should provide some sort of disclaimer so here it goes…I am not looking for financial security (nor to support someone), a husband (though not opposed), or a father for my son (he’s got one)…Just sparks. I like to keep it simple…enjoying a meal and good conversation together while drinking a bit more wine than either of us should.

Woman. 48 years old. Zodiac sign: Sagittarius.
Looking for: man. In age: 45-55
I’d like to meet an intellectually stimulating gentleman who’s honest, has good communication skills and possess a good sense of humor. An appreciation of the arts, good food, wine, travel, exercise and scuba diving is also desirable. (willing to work on the scuba part, and not a deal breaker)I’m an independent self career woman, (worked my way through college) with liberal views. I enjoy cooking, throwing dinner parties and bringing friends together. I've belonged to the same gourmet club for 19 years. To balance out the eating I work out regularly, but am not a work out fanatic. I run, lift weights and do yoga, and recently signed up with a personal trainer. Eating healthy and exercise are important to my lifestyle.I also love to travel and explore new places. I’m always looking for the next scuba adventure, Wakatobi, Maldives and Australia are on my short list. I’ I’d love to tackle Asia and the Middle East as well. My ultimate goal is to retire on the beach some where warm. I recently bought a piece of beach front property and am 1 step closer to making that happen. I'd like to split my time between the beach and the US.I attend theater and concerts on a fairly regular basis, love to dance and appreciate a variety of different types of music from classical to CeLo, although not a huge opera fan. I embrace technology but am not a geek, still using my 4G iPhone and will probably never own a reading device. There is just something about the smell of a real book, and how would you know where the good parts are without the dog eared pages? If you are looking for that special woman who can climb a mountain and then put on a ball gown all in the same day, (I’ve actually read this on dating sites before) I’m definitely not your gal. Women don’t actually carry ball gowns in their backpack. However, I do clean up pretty good, am easy going and believe what you put out in the universe is what you get back. I'm also really good with kids if you happen to have any of them. If any of this matches with what you are looking for, please drop me an *** dates are always really hard when you meet on a dating site. I prefer to skip the interogation/interview on first date and prefer for a natural dialog about one's self. I don't drink coffee so I prefer getting to know one another over a glass of wine or a bite to eat. The summer opens up more possibilities, a walk around one of the lakes is always nice.
