Woman. 46 years old. Zodiac sign: Virgo.
Looking for: man. In age: 43-53
Initially looking for chemistry and friendship that has the potential to evolve into a lasting relationship. I believe that communication, patience, respect, honesty and mutual interests are important. It's important to me for someone to have most weekends available. I work in a preschool so I'm off every weekend. I'm blessed to have great friends and family to spend time with. I enjoy being in the suburbs where nature is more prevalent but do appreciate what the city has to offer as far as museums, restaurants, theatre on a limited basis.Family is very important to me, so if you have kids you must truly love them and they should be a part of your life. I'm attracted to a guy that is chivalrous and grounded/stable.If you have kids, that's great! Just make sure you have time to date.Truly looking for that one special guy to grow older and wiser with.

Seems one out of three guys are looking for a "partner in crime." (I guess the other guys commit their crimes on their own.) If partner in crime suggests a woman who indulges occasional calculated risks for the fun of it, sure, I fit the bill. About me - the string of adjectives approach: confident, upbeat, sporty, active, adventurous, direct, mischievous, extroverted, honest (including internet dating), loyal, intelligent, well-read, passionate, compassionate, sensual, witty, funny - if you like my brand, and sociable.My flaws (a couple!) are that I tend to be late and, like many New Yorkers, I try to do too many things. I am trying not to become too sarcastic, but you should still expect a heavy dose of irony. Trying to become less reactive to that passive-aggressive person on the subway.I am good at clever humor in conversation, but I'm lousy at telling a joke. Sometimes I'm laughing so hard in the telling, I can't get the joke out. This requires in the listener some patience and complete disregard of the truism that humor is about timing. It helps that laughing is contagious.I'm looking to date guys who have the potential for a long-term relationship. I do not have kids, and don't necessarily want them. I am open to adoption, however, as well as dating guys who have kids. I value people who have integrity and care about the state of the world, but who have not lost their sense of humor and playfulness. I am self-aware and reflective, but I try not to get too caught up on the relentless self-improvement trip compelled by contemporary culture. I try not to forget my humanity or that of others, and try to remember our imperfections and flaws can lead to insights, delightful quirks, spiritual growth, compassion, and some damn funny cartoons.I am active and fit, neither slim nor fat. But I will say that, well, "baby got back," in the immortal words of rapper Sir Mix-A-Lot. (Oh, yeah, I love dance music, even with terrible lyrics (are there any other kind!))I love the ocean, in any weather, even winter. Fire Island is heaven on earth. I own a fishing rod, a surf caster. I can tell a blue fish from a striped bass, a fluke from a flounder, not just on my plate. I can bring home the bacon, fry it up in a pan. Just not at the same time. And, oh yeah, sometimes I try to be vegetarian. Wait, where was I going with this . . .I have a spiritual path, but not much of a practice. I aspire to meditate regularly.I enjoy physical activity and much prefer playing sports to being a spectator. But I really enjoy watching tennis - all the grand slam events - and the occasional basebaIl game with a hot dog and beer. I tune in during the basketball playoffs. But if following sports teams (or internet video games/gaming) consumes most of your free time and emotional energy, I'm not interested. I love ballroom dancing, especially because it takes me out of my head and puts me in the present moment in the way that only the intense concentration required to move many different parts of your body, at the same time, through space, to the beat of the music, without looking ridiculous, can do. I don't need you to take dance lessons, although that would be great, but I hope you would be supportive of my dancing with other partners. I am pretty good at tennis. I occasionally jog, cycle, and roller blade. I wish I could kayak and hike more often.- fantastic.)I tend to be attracted to men who are smart (and, usually, well-educated, although one can be the former, but not the latter); physically active (but not the motorized kind); socially/politically aware and engaged; courteous; enjoy flirting; well-mannered; who may not be stylish or metro-sexual, but pay some attention to appearance; and confident. One of my parents is French and the other from the South, so heavy on the manners and those cultures have affected my view of how men and woman relate to each other.While I can write down an "ideal" match on a piece of paper, I've often crumpled it up and tossed it in the waste basket. Before getting to the first date, about the first *** think that any respectful *** what you found interesting in my profile or why we might connect deserves a response, even if I decide I'm not interested. But, even though you are way cute, I won't respond if you want me to play Mrs.e., you are married).None of us should take lack of interest personally out here in cyberspace. That said, I would add that I am favorably impressed by profiles that reflect effort.;The medium is the message." As for the first date, I look like my photos, which were all taken within the last three years. If you do too, we should not have trouble finding each other in a public place. I don't expect an adventure or bolt of lightning, just a coffee or drink some place where I can hear you or a stroll some place pleasant. After the first date, I'm not into heavy *** texting (and I don't do IM/chat) to exchange more information about each other. I'm old fashioned: F2F.

I love sunny days, great conversation and the feel of the sun on my face. The beach is my favorite place to be any time of year. I like men that if they have kids are great dads. Nothing say more about a person then how they treat those closest to them. Kindness, honesty and humor are what i am seeking in others. I will be those things with whoever i meet. BTW I am 50 my profile is wrong. I was raised how you treat others matter more then what you have in life and i teach my child the same. i am a bbw and as much as i wish that could change over night it can't so if that bothers you i understand. i try not to judge others but we all judge. i prefer smart men with a quick wit. I wish you good luck fishing. Have a wonderful day and a life full of dreams and possibilites. A nice time great conversation with someone who you would like to see again. the where a date takes place shouldnt matter as long as you can see each other and have time to chat.
