Date men and women from United States / Arizona / Benson, 55 year old

Date people from Benson, United States. Hope your 12 brings you happiness, good fortune, and someone to love.
Life is what you make it - I try to make mine and those around me a good place to be, so I always have a smile handy to give away.
IРІР‚в„ўm intelligent and can converse on most subjects. I have an appetite to learn new things. So if there is something that interests you IРІР‚в„ўm a great student. I like to see things from other points of view. Show me yours.
I have an artistic side, I write and have been published, I draw, never mastered the paint brush, but pencils and pens do pretty much what I wish them to.
I was born in Tucson, yes IРІР‚в„ўm one of the rare natives of the area. I have lived in other parts of the country. I spent 12 years in Montana, 2 in New Mexico, 1 in California and have traveled most of the Western States, part of Canada and Mexico. I came home about 19 years ago and havenРІР‚в„ўt left since, except for small trips here and there. There is nothing quite as enthralling as the lightening storms of summer. I love the smell of damp soil and wet creosote spiced with mesquite.
I like most outdoor activities. My mailbox is about 1/4 mile from my front door. I look forward to my afternoon walk to it. There is usually something interesting to explore along the way.
I'm in good shape, can't do a decathlon, but I'm healthy. I do work out at least twice a week and try for 2-3 but sometimes things just wonРІР‚в„ўt allow it. I can still look good in a pair of tight jeans and boots or an evening gown and heels. I fit well into any crowd, but if you're looking for an arm decoration keep looking.
IРІР‚в„ўm not a fluffy female, I don't paint my toes, or take hours to get ready to go somewhere. But that doesn't mean I don't like lace, soft caresses and a kiss for no reason.
I have no children, my exes are somewhere but not involved in my life anymore, so I have very little baggage, except for the toiletries bag I keep packed for fun little jaunts every now and then.
Now about you; IРІР‚в„ўm looking for a friend, a companion, a lover, a mate. Someone to share ideas and plans, to laugh with, play with, share the quiet times just being together. A passionate man with strong hands and a kind heart. Someone that enjoys a cold beer on a hot afternoon. Or a cup of hot tea before a fire on a cold, rainy winter day while we cuddle and watch an old movie. If you like holding hands while we walk to the door of a restaurant, letting me snuggle against you in the theatre, giving me a bite of your desert at dinner, you're the man I'm looking for. I want a man willing to build a relationship based on mutual respect and interests. Looks really don't figure into the formula. I have no shopping list I need to fill. Just have good personal hygene, be in decent physical shape and have a good sense of humor; just be who you are.
And of course we must have chemistry. There must be magic, that emotional prestidigitation that preserves the wonder of it all, that sets the sunsets on fire.

Meet men and women from Benson, United States. I am an attractive, fit, fun loving gal. I love to listen to live music, dance (mostly country and classicrock) and spend time near the water. I am a vegetarian and an animal lover. I love to laugh and have a great sense of humor.

Date a soulmate from Benson, United States. Describe myself huh? Well I think I am constantly evolving and growing into a better human being or at least I would like to think that. I am far from perfect and would not want someone who is, that would be to hard to live with. I am a compassionate and understanding person who believes in honesty always, and would want that in a partner. I enjoy a wide variety of activities from camping, swimming, walking, reading, curling up on the couch with a good movie. I love to travel and would like to have someone to join my journeys be they just around the corner or a week away. I want someone who is confident in what they want and where they are going at this stage of our lives. Whatever path we take good luck in your search and may God Bless your journey.
I just wanted to add this since it seems to be a reaccuring thing on these dating web sites, and that is we seem to have lost the ability to be polite or courteous. I have noticed that when you are not interested you cant seem to send a short not to say thank you but no. Someone takes the time to send you a short message or flirt but we cant take the 10 seconds out of our busy day to reply. Not everyone will be interested in you or have that moment when you say wow I would like to know them better but I think we all could respond to them. Sorry for the rant but I think computers are becoming the downfall to common courtesy. Again good luck in your journeys and may we all find the happiness we are looking for.
