Date women from United States / Arizona, 55 year old

Date someone special from Arizona, United States. A little bit about who I am. It has been said that I'm dynamite in a small package. I have a strong will to succeed in life and achieve my personal and professional goals. My competitive nature has allowed me to complete the Suzuki rock 'n' roll marathon (I'm not a regular runner) and the 3-day 60 mile Breast Cancer walk. I don't put on airs and expect honesty in return. I'm comfortable in my own skin and expect the same from others - life is too short for games. I'm comfortable in jeans or a little black dress.
I enjoy outdoor activities including hikes/walks (Sabino Canyon or Mt. Lemmon); going to the Lake, or camping (in the cooler months). In the fall, I enjoy UofA games, Sunday Football, dancing, reading, etc.
I have raised a wonderful daughter, who is grown and now has a family of her own. I'm at a point in my life where starting a family is no longer an option.
I grew up in New York and Tucson - I'm the second oldest of five kids. We all live in Arizona and have remained close throughout the years.
Passionate about dogs especially goldens. I'm involved with an organization that provides pet therapy to at risk children.
I'm looking for someone to be my life partner and grow old with. My ideal time spent together would be taking a hike or walk in Sabino Canyon or Mt. Lemmon; having a nice meal with a good glass of wine (either dining out or cooking at home), or meeting for coffee. Looking for new experiences and adventures - are you ready?

Meet a soulmate from Arizona, United States. hi,
former USMC, former mechanic, motor transport. now into writing historical fiction, and fantasy.
love science fiction movies, older movies over the newer. appreciate the character development, and story. movies should take you away to another time and place. i do love any good movie, new or old.
in a relationship i want to be appreciated, for being me. friends first share in common interests, and topics of conversations. if it does not work out both accept it and part as friends.
body type, i was always considered skinny. now i am considered slim, or average, i feel not at my best, working on it. doing yoga, and tai-chi, for stretching and toning.
working to over come obstacles that life has placed in my path. looking for distraction, of myself. i want to go places, see mountains of ice and green. i will always need mountains around me. the desert is my ancestry, over 100 yrs in az. but my heart needs cold and ice, my eyes need green. i miss the rain and thunder storms of my childhood the enormous hot rain drops, the loud crack and crashes of thunder, the torrential down pours that fill the washes and rivers that exist only when it rains. they call it monsoon season on the tv news. trouble is all the monsoon stopped with the name. they want the weeds gone, but that is what holds the ground together preventing the massive wall of dust. i think the earth needs care that it is crying for. i love the wilderness, where animals run free, living off the land. as a girl i was not allowed to hunt, i learned to cook, sew. well i sew to mend, not the greatest but i can fix, and mend to keep that favorite item from being tossed out, i can follow a pattern ot create my own. i made a batman costume for my son when he was 5yrs, (grown now) complete with gloves, cape cowl, and boots, and belt. good likeness, and a venom suit later at age 10.
i am looking for someone who likes to exercise, care for health, and fitness. cares for nature and the wilderness, the desert in bloom after a good summer rain. i want to go places, try new things, with in reason too extreme may not be my cup of tea. love to repell, but have a bit of intimidation of the first step. i am willing to try, just bear with me if if i hesitate a bit.
always looking for fellow marines, esp desert storm, my time was 81-94.

Date a woman from Arizona, United States. Hello, thanks for dropping by. My name is Grace, a recent transplant from Seattle. It was a necessary move. You could go for weeks without seeing the sun and I was starting to rust from all the rain. I feel better and smile more now that I'm in the sun. Other bonuses of the beautiful state of Arizona are the stars, moon and the beautiful sunsets. My favorite hobby is photography and this a great place to work on it. I enjoy laughing with my teenage daughter and spending time with her, and she still enjoys spending time with me, however, she is venturing on to school in another state. I am now officially an empty nester! I am very happy with my life as it is now, but would love to share, enhance and enrich it with a man that is in the same place. I'm looking for someone to be my partner, confidant, friend, my go to guy. A LTR. I'd love to enlarge my family, with yours.
I love helping others and making people smile. I volunteer for a local hospice, which is very rewarding. I like to give back because I truly care about people. I have enjoyed the last few years getting reacquainted with myself, and setttling into my new home. The "baggage" has been packed away and I'd like to meet a nice guy! Some one who is real and wants to enjoy a quality relationship. If you cook, pick up after yourself and put the toilet seat down, your half way to meeting a really nice lady. I am looking for a guy that lives by the golden rule in all areas of his life. Someone who believes that respect, trust, thoughtfullness, compassion and consideration, are the key to a lasting relationship. If you have a witty sense of humor, enjoy quiet evenings at home or a night at the theater and like to give flowers for no reason at all, other than to say I care, than your the guy I'm looking for.
My friends say I am thoughtful, sincere, caring, energetic and fun to be with. I'm a down to earth kind of gal and I don't do drama! I am a homebody that loves to travel. Although it has been a few years since I have been out of the US, the Greek Isles are now at the top of my bucket list. I crossed off the hot air balloon ride when I moved here. I am always open for an adventure.

Meet someone special from United States. I am twice divorced and ready to live the rest of my life with a smile and new adventures wherever I can find them. I just bought my first Harley-Davidson and look forward to taking classes and doing some repairs before becoming the operator instead of the passenger. I spend every other weekend with my 10 year old grand daughter. I plan to travel to London to meet my cousin who I've been communicating with since childhood. I have an open heart, an open mind and love to laugh. I've been through some devastating experiences making me grateful for all that is good in my life.

Date a soulmate from United States. See if there is any chemistry and take it from there. Not looking for a one night stand or marriage at this time, but hey anything is possible.
I prefer my men to be honest and sincere. On the other websites I been I found way to many men who enjoyed hurting and playing with women's feeling.
So like I said before I'm just checking this out to see if there are any gentlemen left in the crazy mixed up place.

Meet a woman from United States. I am a fun, outgoing woman looking to share the world with a man who is willing to be a supportive and caring partner -not just a physical companion- who likes to laugh and it is passionate about life and what it has to offer. I love photography, exploring places, foreign movies, good wine, good food, world cultures, and motorcycles!. At this point I am not looking for a long term commitment, I am looking for friendship but who knows, if the right person comes along this may change.

. I enjoy a life filled with good fortune, good health, and great friends. I'm kind of a free-spirit type now living full time in beautiful Sedona. Happy, optimistic, energetic, intelligent, adventurous, independent, and creative are words that I believe fairly describe me. I enjoy cooking beautiful, healthy meals and sharing them with friends. I enjoy wine and fine dining, almost as much as I enjoy grilling at home and listening to Pandora radio.
I'm retired and love it, although I am exploring some volunteer work opportunities. This great period of my life is filled with hikes, cooking, reading, yoga and exercise, and various creative pursuits. I would really enjoy finding a like-minded man to share my life. I have been fortunate in my two primary relationships (one for 22 years, one for 10 years), and those relationships ended amicably. As I have grown up (yikes!), I find that my tastes and my needs have evolved also. At this point, the qualities I cherish most in a relationship are emotional intimacy, laughter, respect, wit, curiosity, generosity of spirit, and the ability to share one's love freely and with affection. What does that all mean? I don't know...it sounds more complicated than it feels. My partner is someone who is kind, intelligent, confident, tolerant and ready to grow past the casual dating scene into something more meaningful and less transient. Although I am quite independent, I love chivalrous, masculine men - I know it is a bit of a paradox, but that is the way I feel.
Shall I be honest and tell you a few of my "lesser" attributes? I'm mechanically-challenged, and can't tell jokes without starting with the punch line first. I am pretty short (not freaky short, about 5'5") and have to stand on my tip toes at times to hug tall people and reach for things in upper cabinets. When I feel intensely about a subject, I don't hesitate to share that intensity. I have a short fuse for insincere and phony people, or for that matter, for people who cling to insincere and phony people because they think it enhances their public image or self-esteem. I basically avoid people who are racially prejudiced, thoughtless, unkind for no reason, and/or ill-mannered. I admit to being very visual, and feel that interpersonal chemistry is an indispensable asset to any loving relationship. Classic handsome "good looks" matter far less to me than what is inside a man.
I have been on this site very briefly over the last year and a half, and have met a couple of men, one of whom I dated for a while, but the relationship was challenged by geographic and emotional distance, and other obstacles. Although I can be shy, I'd like to try Match again and would enjoy making new friends in the process.

. I work hard and play hard. I enjoy travel and am looking for someone that has some time to do so and the means to do it well because I can too. I hope to find someone that takes a bad situation and laughs while finding ways to fix it. I like to dance, go to the gym or hike.I also enjoy music all types and seeing anything at a club or concert is good. I like anything close to or on water...hope you do too. I also like to be passionate and romantic. I do enjoy the historic value of where I go so usually try to find out about the place including food and drink that they are well known for. I go to movies and read romance novels. I like good conversation and lots of laughs. I hope to find someone that likes to cook and can cook with me. Nice kisses and walks on the beach, sailing or listening to the water laping on the shore as seeing sunrise or sunset would be nice. I am hoping to find some one fun yet sophisticated and would prefer to be in charge but not domineering....lol well in some things yes. I want some one that does have a kind heart and and is truethful. About my kids.....they are older so more of a room mate situation than raising kids....with that said I do have a grandchild that stays a couple of nights a week under full responsibility of my son. I hope to build friendship first but chemistry needs to be there. I am looking for my prince charming and he won't be disappointed. My job is very demanding and I am close with my family.My father is 83 and lives on his own but if he lands in the hospital as some elderly people do. My schedule at times can be crazy so please be patient.

. I have raised two daughters to be amazing independent women and they are both married to wonderful men. I've been busy working these last few years and raising my youngest daughter so now that she's gone, I'm ready to spend time doing what I like to do. I have a great balance between work and family so now it's time for me.
I am independent, confident and a romantic at heart. I like holding hands, putting my arm around you as we walk along or stop for a quick kiss and a hug. I am not afraid to show affection in public but don't worry, nothing over the top. I'm looking for a man that isn't afraid to be as affectionate toward me as I am toward him.
I want to explore new places, experience new adventures, travel and cuddle in my man's arms at the end of each day.. I LOVE to have fun and consequently have fun doing most anything especially when I'm with my best friend. Is that you?
I am divorced but I don't have any ex's messing around in my life and no drama. I do not like drama. PLEASE make sue you are completely over your last relationship so that we have a good chance at a healthy relationship. I don't want to be your rebound and I promise you, you're not mine. I'm emotionally available and ready to move along into a relationship if you're the right man for me and I'm the right woman for you.
I'm honest, trustworthy, a good friend to others (so I'm told) and I treat people with respect. I'm looking for the same character traits in the man in my life.
I'm an early riser and work out in the morning to get my day going. I know that if I wait until the end of the day (without motivation) I won't make it to the gym or for that run. BUT if I had someone to work out with, I'd probably switch it up!
I am up to speed on most topics from politics to puppies so let's have a stimulating conversation! Some of the things going on these days just makes me wonder........
I have a wonderful family, great job, and unbelievable friends. I have just one piece missing in my life and that's meeting the right man to share it with.
Anyway, if you like what I've written so far, I'd love to hear from you!

We are both about learning and growing together and celebrate our differences. My favorite part about being in an awesome relationship is . . . just getting to be me, a woman with dreams, desires and loves being in the arms of her man.

. i am looking for someone who cares about the earth...who gets that we are stewards....someone who loves to work with their hands and likes to play in the dirt....loves to laugh and has a clear moral compass...no control freaks,lord knows i have had enough of that. i desire mutual respect for each others talents and gifts and compassion and understanding for our differences...i am a left handed,left leaning, artistic person.....if you are on this site looking for games and hook-ups leave me out...i am looking for genuine and real....i can take bumps alone the way and am always open to learn....

. Me...A nice, positive, upbeat, self-confidant gal that thrives on excitement adventure. Nothing better then a good laugh to put things into perspective. I'm energetic, spontaneous and enjoy being active as well as spending down time at home or in my garden. My family, pets and friends are the most important parts of my life.
Being a good listener/conversationalist, I genuinely like all types of people, am straight forward and shoot from the hip. I've been accused of being a funny, caring and intelligent lady that possesses a lot of common sense...but heck, you can't always believe what people say! :-))
I'm healthy of body, mind and spirit. Feel that I have a great sense of style, am a hard worker, have had several businesses throughout my career, place compassion/empathy, kindness, passion/romance at the top of my list. I volunteer in my community and believe in giving back by offering my time to those who need it.
I believe that I live my life with the following quote in mind: "Life's a journey, the idea is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting "hot damn... what a ride!" If you don't have passion in everything you do, why do it? How do you truly experience live life to it's fullest without it?
I'd like to start off dating and see where the road may lead. Who knows, maybe the right frog will come along, we'll kiss, sparks will fly and together ride off into the sunset. Nice thought don't you think?
