Date women from United States / Alabama, 64 year old

Date a soulmate from Alabama, United States. Intelligent conversation sparks my interest.
I am an athletic and creative woman. I enjoy great conversations,.meeting new people and learning about them...spontaneous...while independent I still want a loving relationship.
I like spending time in the outdoors hiking or walking. I've backpacked in the Eastern Sierras; run in some fantastic places over the years and dived in some of the warmest waters on the planet. Open to new experiences and like spontaneous trips.
Looking to meet a LOCAL guy who is athletic and even better if he were more NPR than Fox News --we would mesh well....alternative interests and politics are fine...tolerance is the key to share life without changing another's views. I would welcome a long term relationship should that develop but having a good friendship and great communication is essential. Have three adult children all very creative and successful.
I'd like to fall in love again and am enjoying my life which I see as an unfolding adventure...can you tell that I have an upbeat view? I am a late blooming artist, finally enjoying my passion. I enjoy painting and that whole wonderful experience of creating. I also enjoy designing jewelry, spending time outdoors, entertaining, spontaneous road trips and working on home projects..cooking and love spending time painting with my grandsons. As an artist I have my own business which is incredibly satisfying. I eat healthy, work out to stay fit...hiking, swimming and walking. Former long distance runner....back to hitting the track for fitness but don't think I have any more marathons in me...how did I ever complete that distance??? I enjoy dancing and music....but most of all any creative effort.
Have had the great opportunity to travel and live in many interesting places in Europe as a child and 8 years in the Marshall Islands (kwajalein) as an adult so I love the opportunity of travel.

Meet someone special from Alabama, United States. After years as a national-magazine editor, writer, and entrepreneur, I finally finished my last year of college, graduating from UAB last December. I'm now at a crossroads but one thing I know: Although I've been single for a long time, I would like to share my life with someone intelligent, stimulating, and ready for a relationship.
Hmmm … what do I do for fun? I enjoy people and parties, good conversation, listening to NPR and music (especially blues and old-time rock 'n' roll), dancing (ballroom, boogie, Cajun and zydeco), anything nature- or garden-related, cooking, entertaining, doing crafts projects, hiking, and whitewater rafting. Also, concerts, theater, movies, museums, college football (Alabama) games, art shows, flea markets, and off-the-beaten-path places. Lowe’s and Home Depot are favorite haunts because I’m a hands-on remodeler. I can also browse in bookstores for hours.
Born and brought up in Alabama, I have also lived in Germany (2 yrs), Georgia (1 yr) and Iowa (12 yrs). I've traveled to numerous countries too. I enjoy hiking in the mountains and walking on the beach—both soothe my soul! My two grown daughters are married; I also have two precious grandsons who live in London, England.
I value integrity, kindness, and a positive outlook. One of my favorite quotes is from Woody Allen: “Ninety percent of life is just showing up.” I’m pretty sure he meant that if we make a sincere effort to show up, then life itself takes care of the rest. So I try to show up, giving my all to everything I do. I work very hard but I love to cut loose and laugh—and everything is more fun when there’s someone to share it. I have an empathetic and generous spirit (which may explain my liberal politics!) but a wicked sense of humor might pop up at any time. I'm a Southern girl, traditional when it comes to male/female roles and ladylike to all appearances. Still, you know how Steel Magnolias can be …we are just full of surprises!
About you: I hesitate to be too specific here because I like to leave room for happy accidents in love as well as in life, not letting overly strict criteria limit the possibilities. But if I were to write a description of my ideal match, it would be something like this: You have a style of your own, with ambition and a core belief in yourself and your abilities. You’re well-groomed, a gentleman with good manners, and I’m proud to be at your side. The traits that attract me are intelligence, gumption, and that amazing twinkle in your eyes. If you’re the man for me, you’ll know how to banter and play with words yet share deep conversations because you listen. You are strong enough to stay in touch with your emotions. You are passionate, you like to dance or are willing to learn, you enjoy shared activities—cooking together, for instance—and you participate in life rather than watch it go by. You’re probably a father. You have honesty, integrity, and innate kindness and consideration for others. You go the extra mile. You have a feisty spirit and a great sense of humor but a gentle soul. Whether or not you adhere to organized religion, you live consciously and are open to the idea of Divine guidance. When we meet each other, it won’t really be an accident. You’ll take good, health-conscious care of yourself so we’ll have more time together. A confident woman doesn’t frighten you because you can hold your own. We'll respect and nurture each other.
Does this description sound like you? Good! It may take a while for me to let my guard down, but if you win me over, you’ll find that I am with you all the way—totally loyal, your personal cheerleader, and the best friend/companion/lover you’ll ever have.
By the way, I donРІР‚в„ўt go out with married men or men who are only separated, and I don't respond to winks. I also don't see much point in corresponding if you live a long way away. I wish you well, but I'm probably not the one for you. Aside from these, please write to me and letРІР‚в„ўs see what we have in common.

Date a woman from Alabama, United States. Happily retired after a successful career in nursing, worked enough, now ready to enjoy single life without work obligations. My 27 YO son is the light of my life for we have a great time together visiting anywhere we can find vintage items. I expect he will get into a serious relationship not allowing for as much time with his Mamma. He has told me what I know is true. "Mom, you need to get a life."
He is the accomplish I am most proud of.
My friends see me as a fun, witty, creative and easy to be around. I smile at babies, human and animal, especially puppies.
Mom is in a long term care facility here in
Birmingham. Since I am now an only child, Mom is my responsibility which I accept happily. On Sundays I lead the hymn singing at the nursing home. The residents love me and I love them.
I laugh out loud at a lot of things, especially corney jokes and myself. I sing out loud with the radio but not always the correct words, which my son finds especially funny.
My fellow high school alumni have stayed in touch all these years. We are a close group who "get together" frequently for entertainment and emotional support.
Soooo, why am I joining a dating service? I have few occasions to meet men who enjoy the same thing I do. Hopefully this will provide opportunities to find someone who is spontaneous, likes to travel, enjoys family, antiquing and walking in the mountains.
Actually, I cannot accurately describe myself or my desires for the remainder of my life. My suggestion is to meet me, see if I meet some of your expectations then maybe we can go from there.

Date someone special from United States. I am an easy going person who do not like a like a lot of drama. I am looking for someone who would treat me like a lady, I am a busy person but would take some time out to be with that special person in my life. I would not want to be the only one who wants a friendship. I would appreciate it also if he does the calling more so than me which would tell me that he is interested and I should not all of the work. He has to be worhty of my time and his as not to play games or give me false hope when he is not going to take the relationship or friendship to the next level. He has to plan things too for the both of us instead of me all of the time. When he needs his space, tell me so I can have some time to be alone too without someone around me every second, that would smother me. I like to go out with some of my friends sometimes, so there would be no need for boredom with each other. I like going to the movies and dining out every now and then. I love to talk but also knows when to be quiet too. He also has to be understanding when things do not go his way. Sometimes we might have to agree to disagree but no violence. Treat me the way you want to be treated.

. OK, I know my picture looks like a 64 year old gray-haired retiree, but in my mind, I'm a 29 year old, fun-loving, outdoorsy best friend. (Also, I somehow thought I was a lot better looking than these photos.) Well, what is a girl to do??
OK, where to begin....I have been a widow for almost 3 years. My husband was in the defense industry and we lived in the Washington, D.C. area for many years before retiring and moving south. I was a Medical Administrator. I raised two beautiful daughters who are both music teachers! My youngest lives in Arlington, Virginia and is expecting her first, and my first grandchild!, so I will be visiting in Northern Virginia quite a lot.
I have the wisdom gained from a life well-lived while still appreciating life's hilarious ironies. I am healthy, active and outgoing while also enjoying my quiet times alone at home. I love the outdoors and tending to my plants and pets, taking my Doberman on great walks, walking the nature trails in the woods behind my house or just meditating on my deck. Some days I am a shy flower, some days a proud lioness. Almost daily, I marvel at my good fortune and incredible luck in having been born in the middle of the 20th century in the United States of America to professional parents who understood the value of discipline, education and the importance of family. Out of all the humans ever born, how and why did I get so lucky?!
I would enjoy meeting someone who would appreciate and respect an intelligent companion and enjoy great conversation, is affectionate and has great self-confidence. I am easy to get along with and I would enjoy someone who can laugh at themselves and doesn't take life too seriously.
I love to spend the morning reading the paper, drinking coffee and watching the "Today Show" (gotta love retirement!) and doing the daily crossword and sudoku. Seeing all the latest movies is one of my favorite activities. I am most comfortable in old jeans, but I love to dress up for a special performance or other occasion. I am proud of the life I have built for myself and would love to have the opportunity to get to know a congenial and worldly companion.

. Life makes me smile, I love nature and enjoy watching the animals doing what they do best. I love to fish, garden, target practice, antiques, flea markets, walks on the beach and trips to no where.

Everyone you meet comes with baggage. Find someone who loves you enough to help you unpack. ~ Anonymous Drama is a part of life....this is not a fairy tale where you live happily ever after,this is real life and there is Drama..lol I sure wish Men or Women didn't have Drama but they all do in one way or another.
A big turn off for me is when I am put second or third to what is important in your life.If a relationship is going to work ...you both have to become first to each other.You will come first in my life.I am NOT referring to your KIDS.
With no disrespect,I only date in my race.
