Date men and women from United States / Alabama / Birmingham, 50 year old - page 6

Date people from United States. High energy. Outgoing. Outspoken and usually Out and about. Casual by nature, but comfortable at the ball by nurture. Translation: Can come home from camping, shower, get dressed up and head out to a party, or vice versa. Sort of a Renaissance woman I suppose. I'm independent and strong and like that in a man. That doesn't mean I don't need to lean on you and it doesn't mean you don't need to lean on me. It's a balance that relies heavily on respect and trust, both given and earned. I appreciate having the door opened for me, it shows you're a gentleman. But, I don't mind opening it for myself.
Between crying and laughing when life dumps on you, I choose laughing. Love adventures and spent my time before kids on many. Was a ski instructor, traveled Europe solo 3 times (once on a bike, but didn't skip the museums,) climbed Denali on my honeymoon (not recommended!) Hope to get back to all that someday. For now, I take my kids on adventures. We climb, bike, camp, etc. (Why isn't climbing listed in the Match sports?)
You are more likely to find me at Home Depot than shopping for shoes. Better with a circular saw than a spatula, but learning to grill out. You liking to cook? Give that man a star! You cook, I'll clean. Like to work on the house or in the yard when not off adventuring.
Optimistic by nature, but my humor is sarcastic. I try to find the bright side of a bad situation (though I can't find anything fun about doing laundry!) I'm not shy (you probably figured that out by now though :-) Since kids are brutally honest, I asked mine to describe me. Crazy came up a lot. Not in the bad "Mommy Dearest" or "Sybil" sort of way. Crazy as in spontaneous and ready to have fun and not worry about what the world thinks. Here's the list: Hard-working, wonderful, amazing, loving, kind, and crazy (time #1), crazy (first billing with this kid!) positive, funny, determined. Of course they probably are biased and If you get to meet them, you can ask for the negative words they'd use so you'll have a fair chance to run.
Don't know what to make of the plethora of profiles here that espouse honesty. I don't find that people are very honest these days, but I still try to start out trusting. I'm curious if there's a site where all the dishonest ones go! Also, I don't really think there is anyone who doesn't love walking on the beach, sitting by a fireplace, etc, with the one you love. Key element there is "with the one you love" everything is better! If you don't like those things, you are likely not going to be here! (That other site must be a pretty dismal place! LIars and hermits!)
I believe in God. My faith has grown when I've been hit with some horrendous situations in life. I've also gotten pretty mad at the Man upstairs and asked him to just leave me alone. Luckily he's a really, really forgiving guy (or at least I hope so!)
If you don't know the definition of integrity, don't bother. Honesty is not an optional trait as I am most definitely honest to a fault and so expect that of others. I've been told by friends that if they were stuck on a desert island, they'd want me with them. I'm fiercely loyal. I stick up for the underdog, speak out against wrongs and try to make them right. I'm not one to sit still, except maybe at the beach. If you have kids I see that as a plus, not a minus. If you think you can keep up, that's a good place to start.
Not shallow, but I generally don't respond to those without photos, it just adds another step. I don't really understand the purpose of being on here and delaying knowing what the other person looks like. Makes sense for some, just not me.
I appreciate/understand those who might hesitate due to my "status," but that's a financial necessity for right now, not an indiction of emotional indecision.

Date people from Alabama, United States. My friends would probably describe me as a happy person - I had a very happy childhood and I think that carried over into adulthood. I hate drama and strife - life is just too short to try to deal with that. I want a companion that will enjoy spending time with me, but also has their own friends and interests, and is OK with having time away from each other occasionally.
I enjoy traveling, whether it is a major trip or just a quick weekend trip to the mountains or the beach. I am active in a couple of organizations, enjoy my job and always find time to read a good book. I love to work in my yard as long as it doesn't involved using the lawn mower. I like to cook, but don't seem to have time to do it that often. I hate housework, love shopping, am financially responsible and enjoy hanging out at the local airport, swapping airplane stories. ( Don't be fooled by the airplane stuff, I love red roses, girly clothes, romantic novels and fast sports cars...)

Meet a woman from Alabama, United States. At the risk of sounding conceited, I would love to introduce you to a very wonderful woman. I truly believe that I am a unique and special person. I know that I have so much to offer to someone who is looking to make a real connection, and willing to go beyond the superficial banter that is commonplace on these dating sites. I have tried several sites, including this one, some off and on several times, and I have yet to meet someone of real substance. I am not interested in collecting "cyber friends". What I am interested in is starting a real conversation that is adult and genuine, then if the chemistry is there, progressing to something deeper. I am a very mutilayered woman. I can be a buddy, a friend, a companion, and more. If you are truly searching for something real, then take the plunge to get to know me. I promise. You will not be disappointed.
Having said all that, there are a couple comments I would like to add in order to avoid wasting anyone's precious time. First, I am limiting my search to my local area, and secondly, I will not respond to anyone who has not posted a profile picture.
