Meet a woman from California, United States. I'm an energetic, classy, youthful 67 YO retired RN who loves my family, the outdoors, gardening, cooking, sports, reading, art, learning etc.
I have taken time to read a number of profiles-(Male). I am very impressed and excited with the level of introspection I've read. Not being condescending in the least, I also loved the honesty, the awareness of mutual and self needs and the open and articulate way these have been expressed. I am a "giver", frequently much more than 50%. Although this has been intentional, often necessary and lovingly given, I would like to be more equally involved with a special person to whom I could share caring, validation, honesty, affection, respect, smiles, openness, dedication, love and a lot of fun. I respect my body holistically: try to eat healthy, get plenty of exercise, rest, search for and select that which I find esthetically pleasing. I love fashion, age appropriate, but feel as comfortable in jeans or gardening clothes as I do in a cocktail dress. ( I do love to "dress up"). When I turned 66' I cut off my long blonde locks. Why? I felt I no longer wanted, needed that attention & validation I received from them.
I was raised a self-sufficient country girl by the coast of Maine, I learned to garden, cook, sew, etc. and to know and respect the value and joy of nature. I'm captivated by the wine country and all it has to offer. I have found being self-supporting very exciting and rewarding and very important. For me, creatvity in some form is necessary. Retired 30 year runner, but aerobics is still a must. After being in the Air Force Nurse Corps during the V.N. War,(please respect that political policy at that time was not an option for me) I helped raise my son & three step children, nursed in various places & moved to Ca. in 1993. Although I'd love to travel more, California will probally remain my home. I am appreciative of others' needs, desires, wants,opinions etc. am validating of these and enjoy the same. I feel being sensitive & empathetic with others is necessary. Honesty & transparency are very important.
Since the above information sounds rather stiff and impersonal, I want to clarify that: although I do have a high standard for personal behavior, I am very approachable. I enjoy being very spontaneous with affection, love to respond to a quick wit, and am very playful. Regardless of the task at hand, I feel and find that "making it fun" is extremely effective. Accepting and appreciating other's views, opinions, etc. Is vital for understanding others. But I do resist further conversation with someone who feels that they "must convert me to their way of thinking". I do feel complete acceptance of another is essential and totally worth the effort.
I have an endless amount of love to give to the "right gentleman".

Date men and women from California, United States. Making things is a delight for me.........A home, a garden, dinner, experiences, gifts, making people laugh. And seeing the world, adding to the fabric of life's experiences and sights. Riding my bike, throwing the frisbee for my dog, swimming, hiking, and rolling a suitcase through exotic airports are my favorite "sports". I love parties, and having friends over for dinner, groups of diverse and interesting people to laugh and share ideas with. Any movie, theater, or music performance is always a treat, and I love being involved with the art world in all it's forms.
All of this is better when you have someone to share it with. A person who is curious, interested in new ideas and experiences, who likes cultural activities and who enjoys people, would be the one I would hope to meet. Someone who has been successful in their life and who wants to share that with others, who appreciates and embraces diversity - that person you hope to sit next to at a dinner party - he would be "the perfect partner" that Jimmy Buffet sings about.
Coming from the world of fashion and interior design, I hope to meet a person who appreciates the communication that those offer - having beauty around you - that someone I would enjoy. And one who has love and appreciation for animals and what they add to our lives. All these good things to see and enjoy are out there waiting to be experienced. Together.

Meet someone special from California, United States. As you can tell from my brief profile, I am not used to talking about myself all at once. However as I build relationships I really enjoy the discovery of commonalities within that relationship - how one topic leads to another and gradually builds a solid foundation. Here are some "starter" topics on which to build as we get to know each other.
I was born and raised in England, but have lived in California for many years. I have recently retired from corporate life in the Silicon Valley and am ready for the next phase of my life.
I love the sunshine and being out of doors; perhaps a holdover from the unpredictable English weather of my youth! I enjoy walking/hiking, reading, music, art, watching most sports and travel to name a few things.
I am quite independent with (I have been told) an opinion on most things and I am looking for someone who has a similar outlook on life and who doesn't pretend to be what he is not.

Date people from California, United States. I am grateful to be interested in a lot of topics, issues, and people. My friends describe me as informed, enthusiastic, creative, inspired and motivational. I know I have a lot of feminine qualities to bring to a relationship and am looking for a man who compliments this with his own interests, capabilities, and humor for an exciting, long-term relationship. I am a health nut, so I enjoy people who put that as a priority. I am proudest of the variety of careers and interests I have followed and continue to explore. I love owning my home, keeping it fun and ready for entertaining. These are qualities I would love to share with a like-minded student of life.
