Date women from United States / Alabama / Piedmont - page 5

Date someone special from Piedmont, United States. I IGNORE all winks but if you send me an email I will respond.
I am a Swedish professional with a quick wit, keen intellect and a strong intellectual curiosity to understand myself and people around me. I am often told that I am vivacious, assertive, exude a strong positive energy and have an easy laugh.
I make sure that I sweat daily. I love pushing my body as it makes me feel completely alive. I am a slow but avid runner and have completed several full and half marathons with hopefully many more to come. I go to the gym every weekday morning doing cardio, strength training and spinning. I also train with a run club, downhill ski (have season pass) and enjoy strenuous long hikes. I would love to meet someone who just like me enjoys pushing their physical limits and does it with a huge smile on their face.
I am a curvy and muscular size 16 and am extremely comfortable in my own skin.But if you are seeking a slender woman I am not your cup of tea, I lead a very active lifestyle but am also at peace with the concept of growing old and plan to do so with curiosity, excitement and style.
I am addicted to NPR and audio books (not very Buddhist I know ;)). I rarely miss This American Life, Fresh Air, and Says You. I love board games and spending an evening with friends over dinner and a game of rummicub. My sense of humor is more cerebral than slapstick and I love love love double entendres. Making each other laugh is to me key in creating a lasting relationship. Jon Stewart and David Sedaris best represents my kind of humor but I also secretly get a kick out of Kathy Griffin.
I am looking for an intellectual, professional, emotional, and spiritual peer. We both live active lives but are looking for significantly more than an activity partner. We want a deeply intimate connection with our partner and are comfortable acknowledging that experiences and every day life gets richer if shared with someone you love. We are both more attracted to interdependence than independence in relationships.
I am attracted to extrovert men with a strong presence and I believe that the mind is the most important sexual organ. You are a confident, passionate and open minded lover who is kind and enjoy courting and making your woman feel special. I am very physical and enjoy vanilla and distinctly un-vanilla displays of affection. I do not have any of my own but would strongly welcome a man with children despite the challenges that this might initially pose and like to think I would be a positive addition in a childs life.
My spiritual practice is all about being mindful and present in the here and now; especially when things are challenging. By choice I do not drink alcohol but don't mind a bit if my partner does as long as it is in moderation. Any type of recreational drugs, however, is a deal breaker as I would love for my partner to also be committed to being fully present.
We both have a “can-do” attitude towards life and more often than not see things through the lens of the "glass half-full”. Our personalities tend to be reflective rather than reactive and we remain calm in the face of adversity. We both find people who loose their temper, are passive aggressive or turn in to a turtle under pressure quite unattractive. We both agree that relationships tend to brake down when you stop being interested in understanding your partner and instead just focus on being right. Together we will build an exceptional and purposeful life where we bring out the best in each other and create a relationship based on acceptance, intimacy, honesty, laughter and passion.
I am a one-man-woman and come from a country where there isn't even a word for dating exclusively. In Sweden, if you ask someone for a date, it means you are not seeing anyone else and that is what you will get from me. If you are at a stage where you want to just casually date or "play the field" rather than focus on getting to know one person at I ask that you pass me by.

I love to help the poor and go for an underdog. I have done wheels on meals and now doing mentoring program for last year of high school to help them get through college. Would anyone like to join me? Dogs are my favorite animal so is animal planet. I enjoy going to a movie at night or a play. On a nice day may take a drive to the beach or to Carmel for fun. My ideal vacation is to go travel around the world, meet all kinds of people and enjoy eating good food. I would love to have you join me.

Date someone special from Piedmont, United States. I am a fortunate woman w/a warm, vibrant, outgoing personality. I am hoping to find a man who is strong of heart: not afraid to express gratitude, sensitivity, tenderness, and compassion at the appropriate moments.. I have no desire to replicate "marriage" in a new friendship. Now, I need something different. Marriage was a good way to raise 3 educated, and productive kids to be proud of. The grandchildren are happy as well. A man who is fearless and desires a dynamic relationship between two complete adults who have learned something about themselves does excite me.
I am passionate about art, music, theatre, dance, organic food, history and many kinds of music Music. Outings to Berkeley Rep and other cultural events are a regular past time.
For me cultural diversity is not an abstract or politically correct idea-I live it. Several trips to Spain (grandfather) showed how thick family blood can be despite two generations of estrangement. Panama and the canal with indigenous people living close by : what a contradiction of realities. In Spring 2011- 16 days in Israel only left me wanting more. Travel is important- it's education.
Subtitles don't bother me. I love foreign films from just about anywhere. Almost any form of acoustic jazz makes me feel at home.- Charlie Parker, Coltrane, Gillespie.
Any accomplished man who seeks my companionship truly loves women, food, music, travel, books, and all humanity. Decisive, vital , confident men of any age turn me on. While modest and humble, he is secure and proud of his accomplishments: primarily as a family man, in his work and as a mensche in the world. Integrity in his relationships is the bottom line. It's exciting to be with a man who loves his work but also one who can create a home for himself as a single person. Civil, sincere communication is paramount. Hidden agendas only sabotage chances for a genuine, adult meaningful relationship. A sense of humor is necessary just to get through life. All this sets the stage for whatever we wish to create together including fun, friendship, family, good times and nothing but, from here on in. So, he-man with your heart in your hand, where are you?

I was raised on the East Coast but it wasn't until I moved to Californai that I have evolved through love's turmoils and now have the understanding required to maintain a loving and committed relationship.

I am successfual and I am seeking an introduction to a man who is also successful on many levels. A good sense of humor is a must, evidenced by the ability to laugh at himself and me when needed. I work hard and play hard, but know when, and how, to relax. I enjoy home as much as I enjoy outside activities.

I keep fit through regular excercise and practicing YOGA. I can play doubles tennis and am considering golf lessons and/or dance lessons. My parents were ballroom dancers (as a hobby) and I learned to dance from them.

On the more personal side: I'm warm, gracious, non-judgemental, classy and graceful. My interests are singing (I am in a German chorus and a church choir), listening to opera, and classical music in general. I love to swim, dance, and ski. I live in the woods and love nature. A man who can make me laugh and be my best friend. I genuinely like men. Really my ideal match is a man who I fall in love with, but I can't describe that, can I? Drop me a note if you think we may connect. I am interested in a committed, long-term relationship.

. Ode to a Bare-Faced Kiss:
If a goal to love's a kiss
"Twixt two pairs o' cheeks and lips,
Is it considered amiss
To expect that touch to be fair,
That BOTH lips and cheeks be bare,
Free of mask of manly hair?
If love would be blind
To what only the eyes can find,
Then touching of like minds
Increases with such a kiss
Or caress from mister to miss
Skin to skin--to me, that's bliss!
Last Romance?
We shall dance with words
and fly like birds
Borrowed feathers display'd
As summer's geen doth fade,
Be reborn anew into the blue
of never-ending sky.
We shall dance with words
and fly like birds,
On clouds of mist and white
through autumn's silver night
To rest at dawn on a winter lawn,
And there we'll dreamless lie.
We shall dance with words
and fly like birds,
And sing a golden call
Each to t'other enthrall,
One final chance--Be pierced by love's lance
As we breathe our last sigh.
Above are kisskat67's thoughts on finding the perfect imperfect match--who can know the magic that may exist in reality if all we know at the beginning is only 2-dimensional, a photograph and a self- or other-written summation of a life path taken? This process is all about taking a new, uncharted flight to a mutual blissful place of peace together. My hand of friendship is extended, waiting to
be enfolded by yours.
