Date women from United States / Alabama / Roanoke, 63 year old

Date a soulmate from Alabama, United States. I enjoy being with an honest person that is true to self and to others..no big put on or show off. I enjoy dining out and going for scenic drives, occasionally stopping to smell the roses. I love God and know he's close by my side because I've been thru some trying times in the past few years. I try to "Do unto others" as I would like to be treated. I retired from a local hospital after 32 years so I feel my life has been quite successful. Respect, truthfulness, kindness and happiness are important to me.

Meet someone special from Alabama, United States. I agree with the Buffett song "If We Couldn't Laugh, We Would All Go Insane". Being able to laugh at ourselves and the humor of everyday life is what keeps it all in perspective. As a high school teacher, I spend a great deal of time (maybe too much)with teenagers who keep me young at heart and in mind...if not in body. While they often drive me to distraction, they give me hope for the future. I know that time is too precious to stress over the little things. I will leave that job to others who want it. I think and feel years younger than my driver's license says...but then who's counting? I am attracted by honesty, integrity, fidelity, and romance. I enjoy reading, gardening, camping, the mountains, the beach, my own backyard, old movies that leave you teary, sports in person, all music, and good friends. I am happy at home curled up with a good book or in a noisy bar with good friends. I find that most things bring rewards if we take the time to notice. My three children, one grandson and one granddaughter, are the joys of my life, but they have lives of their own to follow as I do. I would like to see if there is someone out there who would like to join me in the adventure.I would enjoy meeting someone who looks at life honestly and enjoys the simple pleasures as well as the big rewards. Someone who has outgrown the need to play games and can see what is real and lasting. I still believe in the possibility of true love and happily ever after. I embrace this dream that I have seen in others- who knows? It might be real.
