Date men and women from California, United States. Well, first of all, I want to let you know that I am a cancer fighter, however I will NOT let cancer define who I am and what I want out of life. The ultimate goal is to be a survivor no matter what the odds and to meet a special someone that is willing to bring a litte added joy into my life. Now that being said, I am a very intimate woman both emotionally and physically in a relationship. I am looking for the real thing called "love" the love that begins with the eyes moves to the mind and if it's right, resides in the heart. Family values, christian values and life long friends are very important to me. I have raised two wonderful sons, now have five small grand children. You must like and enjoy children. I'm searching for that special someone to share the rest of my life to be filled with passion, love, respect and romance. I love to cook, read, ride bikes, hike, cross country ski, the theater, and travel that unknown path of life, attend hockey games, dance and have moonlight dinners on a beach or mountain top. The man of my dreams must be my best friend. Someone I can trust and feel secure with, that respects and loves the woman in his life. A man with morals and christian beliefs. A man that isn't afraid to be intimate and emotionally supportive with his woman. A man that enjoyes taking his woman to far away romatic places, a walk in the park, a stroll on the beach or just relax at home with a good pizza working on a jig-saw-puzzle. As a couple we must also have mutual respect for each others space, ideas, opinions and open communication. To me, having those qualities are so very important in sustaining a loving releationship. Now, who would like to be my best friend and special someone???

Date a soulmate from Arcata, United States. My friends would describe me as helpful and loyal. Cute animals make me smile and a beautiful clear sunny day is a most wonderful thing! I am grateful for so many things. I think being truely grateful is a key element in life. My special friend would be honest and have a sweet heart and an open mind. I have an extreamley social job. As a bartender for over 20 years at the same place I know hundreds of people and have many friends. After a day on the job I almost always come home and relax by myself and enjoy some quiet time with my dog. I am pretty comfortable by myself, which makes me wonder why I'm doing this, but it would be nice to have a special someone in my life. I am passionate about not hurting others, trying your best to help our planet, although I am not a radical. Helping starts with the individual. And, of course, I'm passionate about animals.

Meet people from California, United States. I'm kind, generous, creative, smart, thoughtful, skilled in many areas, sometimes funny. I make mistakes, and I'm willing to own up to them and talk through whatever dischord might be caused. I've been clean and sober a long time, I like being free of mind altering substances. I love my animals, and others as well, and am mostly vegetarian (ethical omnivore!). I try to live a 'green' life...recycling, composting, solar array for electricity, etc. I do many of my own home repairs and find plumbing quite satisfying. I like walking with my dogs. I'm a ceramic artist, and love making all kinds of art.
I was a teacher for many years, and enjoyed spending my day with my students. Didn't much like the bureaucracy (sp?), and still don't much care for it.
I love to watch movies, both at home and in the theatre. Big Netflix fan. I'm a Center Arts season ticket holder. I have really enjoyed theatre in Ashland as part of a get away weekend. Have loved rafting on the Trinity, but haven't done it for a while due to lack of company.
I'm enjoying swimming and aquarobics until the rain lets up, when I can start walking again.
I love the redwoods and living on the north coast. We have the best of everything I love most in the world!
I'm a very independent woman who is looking for a friend/partner who knows himself well, who is able to be introspective (and preferably has worked through some of the baggage life gives us whether we want it or not!), who might like to try some new things, who has well rounded interests and a varied skill set.
I have always wanted to take the ferry to Alaska up the inside strait, and would love to see the Grand Canyon. I have travelled some in my life, and although I have the interest to travel, airports and some airlines are such a nightmare today that I kind of doubt that I'll be flying anymore.
Date people from United States. The quailty that defines me most is that I am NICE. I'm kind and do my best to make others comfortable. I am happy and optomistic(or I wouldn't be on this site), and imagine tomorrow will be a move to a better future. I don't like conflict, but think it is essential to be able to discuss openly our differences, find some middle ground and move on. I'm creative, now working on my magnum opus garden. It would be wonderful to find someone who at least enjoyed this place. My brother once told me, when I gave birth to twins, "you always did like to do things just a little bit better than everyone else" I guess thats me, too.
Travel to foreign lands has long been a favorite pastime. It would be nice to find someone who also likes to travel when funds allow. Drives in the country are also nice. Someone who enjoys the world of books would be a plus, Movies too.
Mostly, I hope to find someone who is interested in other people, someone who picks up where we left off, who remembers the book I gave him 2 years ago, and comments on how fitting a present it was for him...someone who makes the connection.
Working with people 4 days a week sometimes leaves me tired and full. Someone who is able to entertain himself at times seems essential. I tend to the serious but also love to make people laugh. Someone with a sence of humor (someone who can spell would be handy too)!!
My ideal match is someone who feels he is doing something that is personally meaningful with his life. He is happy to be living this short time we have in this carnation, on our beautiful planet, in this paradise we call Humboldt.. Is this in any YOU? If it is, I'd like to hear from you):
My idea of a first date would be to meet for tea/coffee and talk, talk, talk. Seeing a face, a smile, getting to know YOU would be nice.

I belong to two walking groups, one that walks weekly and whose members have become good friends. I exercise regularly, and I sing in a community choir, which is loads of fun (I mostly lip sync). Walking/hiking, seeing plays/ musical productions/ concerts/ movies and reading are some of my interests. My own marriage was strong but after almost ten years as a widow, I'm not feeling that I need to be married again. I would be interested in someone who shares some of my interests and enjoys being fairly active.
