About Me

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.

    I am looking for that certain chemistry that goes beyond words,the physical has to be there but without the right chemistry the physical fades fast.I'm am driven and love what I do, so hopefully someone with the same drive and passion. Being creative in my work life as well as my social life, also having a sense of humor about it all, and never taking myself or life to seriously.....being able to laugh is mandatory.I strive to live a healthy and overall well balanced life style between eating well working out and keeping it all in perspective.The rest will have to wait until we meet. Relaxed simple, grab a drink at a neighborhood bar, cafe.The most important thing is the company not the place.

    Passionate about life and what makes people tick! Love all kinds of people, and curious about many things in life. Love to travel, play golf, and just explore what life has to offer! Too many passions to list... come find out .... open book here!Looking for a person with character, integrity, humor and the ability to laugh at one self!Because you and I love to travel! We don't need to splurge on expensive accommodations, just being together swimming, boating or snow shoeing by day, and cuddling up at night is what really matters! I appreciate a man who is honest and authentic, who by nature knows his strengths as well as areas of opportunity. Confidence is a turn on for me!

    Beauty is in every form of creation no matter what you look like, no matter what size your body, its the size of your heart which defines your beauty. ~Ariaa Jaeger ‘A beautiful woman pleases the eyes, a good woman pleases the heart; the one is a jewel, the other a treasure’.~NapoleonOver 40, secure with who I am, looking for the same. Not looking to fix anyone, nor be fixed. If we can't accept each other the way we are, we most likely are not for each other. I desire someone who communicates well-my intellectual equal. I love a good debate. However, I desire someone who understands the art of compromise. It is okay to have our own opinions and agree to disagree, but let's not to go to bed mad. Life is too short. ******If you are looking for a one-night stand, LOOK ELSEWHERE.********* If you are married, thanks, but no thanks. Family is extremely important to me. I am the youngest of three. I have two children at home. They are my priority AND I make time to date. I LOVE Vikings football. I love the smell of a campfire. I love to listen to the fire crackle while star gazing, talking and having a couple beverages. (I am a Malbec/Vodka fan, but hot chocolate and water work too!) I write poetry when so inspired, some of it is decent, some not so much. My musical tastes are varied; I like new Country Music (whether you are a fan or not- I love action movies, chick flicks, just about any genre. While I think the internet is a good tool for introduction, I do not believe it is a replacement for good old-fashioned face to face conversation. I intend to put time and effort into getting to know you. I expect the same. If you're up for some excellent conversation, love to laugh, can handle a little sarcasm/quick wit and the company of a great lady, drop me a line. No pressure. Let's meet and talk; from there we can decide if we would like to have a real date.
