Date men and women from United States / Alabama / Leeds, 49 year old

Date men and women from Leeds, United States. late 40s guy recently divorced looking for a friend, companion for possible long term relationship, marriage.. I have 1 nine year old son. I love spending time with him. I also play guitar, write music, practice kung fu(when I can). I do love smoking my More 120s and am looking for a lady who enjoys 120s as well. I think it shows grace, style and character when a woman smokes 120s... I love taking walks, reading, going out to dinner, watching movies. My main hobby is playing guitar. I've been playing for 30 years, have taught guitar some and recorded some demos, and appeared on some artists CD's. At this stage of my life, I don't play in bands anymore but content with writing, recording music for a self release CD.
I'm sincere, and genuine. I'm not into head games or hurting anyone. I'd love spending quiet evenings with her, getting to know her, making her feel special. Would love watching a good movie with her or taking her out to dinner. Watching college football(Go BAMA!) I love all sports. Although I don't play them anymore, I'm always up for a game of football, basketball or baseball...

Meet men and women from Leeds, United States. Melanie Persons Sands - ahh, not quite as romantic as Shoshanna; maybe I'll just change my name entirely. In the meantime, thas is who I'm is, that is how you'll find me, and that is the Only way you will find me, friends!
And here is what is on my mind today, Sunday, October 16, 2011.....
I am Emotional, Passionate, Articulate, Loving, Witty, Needy, and Honest.... I love music, movies, conversation, and Not talking.... I like being close physically, and time apart.... I want to know Why.... I am nobody's fool, but I am a fool for love.... I love structure, and an occasional surprise.... I love the smell of flowers and dog's feet (not necessarily at the same time).... I am a homebody, love order and neatness, especially if you created it.... I enjoy cooking And eating out; I do not eat cheese (except mozzarella), sour cream or guacamole, but I love Mexican food.... I am allergic to cats, perfume, chemicals of virtually all kinds, grass, trees, pollen, and dirt. I can smell cigarette smoke in the car in front of me at a red light. I can also smell a lie from 20 yards away. I am not wearing the body that belongs to me, but I'm trying to learn to appreciate some of the curves that came as a bonus with it. Maybe when I embrace it Fully, I can then let it go. I am an ardent lover of Peace, and quiet, music turned up loud in the car, and singing loudly with it, freedom of spirit, kindness, empathy and kissing. I talk too much, too freely, and will tell you every tiny detail if you let me. I am indecisive because I see everything in shades of gray, but appreciate those who just Do It. I will have your back; you can have mine. I don't need you to tell me what is wrong with me, I already know. I value stability, responsibility, self-sacrifice, generosity, common sense, imagination, security, reliability, kindness, empathy, and the sincere desire to please. I think the male species as a whole was a wonderfully complex creation and celebrate the fact that men and women were made Differently for perfectly good reasons.
I am very much a girl; highly sensitive, appreciative of all things positive - attitude, feedback... If I could clone the love of my life, you would make me smile at the mere sight of you (even if I just chewed you out for 15 minutes on the phone), make me laugh from the pure joy of simply hearing your voice, and I would Already miss you, even before you left the room. You have to have strong arms to hold me when I cry, and never be too proud to tell me you're sorry - when you are sorry! Speaking of which, liars, cheaters, game-playing fools - don't even Try. TIRED is an understatement, and I do not have time for any of it. I am seeking PEACE going forward after my divorce, if you have anger issues, please keep the line moving.
I am a big bone-ded woman (see Sista Big Bones music video by Anthony Hamilton), so if you're looking for a "slender, athletic" type, keep looking. The head shots I choose because they are the most flattering (yes, they are current), and remind me of my lighter days, but I have a feeling they, standing on their own, may not reflect me in my FULL glory, if you will and generally do not accurately represent the fact that Sometimes I have three chins. LOL - .well, that just weeded out 90% of you.
For now, all of this being new after being married 27 years, I am just looking forward to casual interaction, slowly getting to know you. There will be nothing "fast" about me, so if you are looking for a "good time" I am neither the Place nor the person to entertain you. I am not desperate for a date, or a man, or a friend with benefits; I am simply interested in meeting new people, and making new friends during this period of transition in my life.
