Date women from United States / Alabama / Pinson, 49 year old

Date a woman from United States. I am a very outgoing person that loves spending time with friends and family and meeting new people. For the past 15 years I have dedicated my life to my two daughters and put my social/personal life on hold. They are grown and have their own lives now and Mom is ready to start living her life!
I believe you have to be friends first and then everything else will fall into place. My daughters say that I am too picky but that isn't really the case. I want that instant chemistry that you get butterflies when you first meet someone. I'm not looking for perfection because I'm not perfect but just want to meet someone that is perfect for me. I would much rather be alone than be with the wrong person.
I am a very caring and compassionate person sometimes to a fault doing things for others and putting myself last. I believe in helping others when you can and God will bless you in the process.
I can be a hopeless romantic and want to believe that fairy tales do come true. I would like to meet someone that will enrich my life and someone that brings a smile to my face everytime I see them. Someone that you can't wait to see again and that you can't get enough of. Don't get me wrong, I love my "Me" time and don't want to spend every single minute with anyone. I am independent and don't want a "needy" man. He must have his own interests and i have mine but that we can also make time for each other and look forward to the next time.
If I wink at you and you're not interested, then thats ok too. I believe that God has a plan for me and if I meet the one that I am supposed to be with then that will be great. If not, then I hope I meet some really great friends along the way.
Thanks for taking the time to read my profile and I wish each and every one of you the very best!
