Date women from United States / Arizona / Phoenix, 46 year old

Date someone special from Phoenix, United States. I do date and I have dated inter-racially, so that's not an issue for me. I'm NOT here "just looking", I'm "SERIOUSLY SEEKING" a long term relationship and race doesn't matter. I am a very genuine and nonjudgemental person. But I've let good enough be good enough for long enough.
SEXY, SASSY, CLASSY AND YES, SOMETIMES JAZZY!!! LIVE, LAUGH AND LOVE!!!
YES, I LOVE P. D. A AND SO SHOULD MY PARTNER, THERE IS NOTHING TO BE ASHAMED OR EMBARRASSED ABOUT!
Old fashioned, considerate, optimistic, kind, secure, stable, generous, thoughtful, spontaneous, tender, modest, intense, strong willed and opinionated. I can compromise, bend without breaking and agree to disagree. While laughing and having fun doing it, with my great sense of humor! I have dated and enjoy dating interracially for the past few years. It wasn't out of curiosity or a test. Since I am open minded, I'll keep my options open. You never know what you might miss out on. Not into the bar scene. But I do enjoy going out for dinners, dancing and drinks. I love the great outdoors, traveling, sight seeing, fairs, picnics, parades and all types of festivals, (especially the cultural ones). I LOVE to travel, I'm not a world traveler but would love to be someday! I know what I want and who I want in my life. Very happy with where I've been and what I've become. And I will not just settle for anything. I surround myself with positive people and positive inspirations. I'm confident not conceited. I enjoy life to the fullest and all it has to offer. Each day is a true gift and each experience is a present. And I am more than ready, willing and able to enjoy this point in my life. I love to love and to be loved in return. I've let good enough be good enough for long enough!
If you are interested and serious. Then you know what to do next.
I HAVE A PASSPORT THAT'S WAITING TO BE USED. YOU MUST LOVE TO TRAVEL, LAUGH AND HAVE FUN, IT'S A REQUIREMENT :~)
Is a woman's lips one of the first things a man notices?
A man that is ready to commit to things that really matter. Someone to share my lifes stories with. Smooth, soft, gentle and relaxing with a great heart, mind, spirit and soul. I do know what I expect to find in a man and a relationship, regardless of who you are. RESPECT, MORALS, VALUES, HONESTY, DEDICATION, TRUST, ETHICS and SELF RESPECT are just the beginning. I'm in search of MENTAL STIMULATION. A man that's able to make love to me MENTALLY as well as PHYSICALLY! One that's secure with himself. And knows what he wants out of life. He has the ambition and drive to get it. Someone that's not serious all the time. But can be when needed. Good quality communication skills. Be willing to forgive me when I make a mistake. Because we all do. No one is perfect. I am seriously seeking a long term, committed, exclusive and fulfilling relationship and possibly more if it goes that way. Friends are great and wonderful. And I have enough of them. But at 3 or 4 in the morning when I'm feeling frisky, I'm reaching over looking for my man not a friend. A man that wants and knows how to appreciate a genuine, hot, silky, sensual, sexy, dark and lovely sistah'. We can waste so much time looking for the right or perfect person. Why not try creating the right and perfect environment first. And the person will come. And by the way, I don't have time to play the endless game of exchanging interest/ flirts or msg/email tag. If you're serious then make a move and a contact. It's one thing to be older but there's no need to look it or act it. Please be young at heart.
PHYSICAL ATTRACTION/CHEMISTRY AND MATURITY IS A "MUST HAVE". Sorry but I am NOT attracted to heavier/over weight men. Nor am I attracted to/or interested in much older men. PLEASE BE YOUNG AT HEART. I'm not vain or shallow and I'm not trying to offend anyone. It's my PERSONAL PREFERENCES and we all have them.
Distance is not a issue for me. If it is for you, please don't contact me.

Meet a soulmate from Phoenix, United States. This should read: Preowned, Precertified, 1 owner, Handles like a dream, extended warranty bumper to bumper guarantee! Car Fax available upon request. “ LOL”
I do not have a type. I love a man to be a man and chemistry is key I know within minutes. I think people should SHOW you who they are not TELL you who they are!
Things about me: I am a very affectionate, attentive woman and must have the same. I am a true romantic in every sense of the word, I love PDA, holding hands, simple things and ways to show each other each day you are excited about someone.
I am looking for smarts, a driven personality, someone with spunk, sarcastic! Someone that can have fun, laugh and has energy!
Did I mention I love to kiss and it a HUGE thing that you be a good kisser? This is a Dealbreaker no joke!
I LOVE SPORTS.... hanging out, casual dining, bbq, travel, a good martini, to laugh out loud often and at myself often! I love my jeans but with heels. I love being a women, acting like one, and looking like one I take care of myself too. The only fake thing on or about me are my finger nails. I am happy in my baseball hats watching my sports and chillin. I am very easy to get to know and to be with, and I am a very social creature.
I live in the SE Valley in Ahwtaukee so I am near Chandler, Tempe, Mesa etc.
I have an almost 16yr old daughter a Sophmore in High School who is a A/B student and a delight to be with each and every day a true sweetheart! She has started driving holy cow I am not ready for that at all.
I refuse to settle so many people do I will not do it again. I want the whole package and I will wait for it too. Life is too short to have a glass half empty instead of half full I already have a full glass everyday just missing someone to drink it with me! I am a giver and pleaser I simply want the same back instead of someone taking out of my cup it seems reasonable to me just sayin.
My Pics are all 2012 I am usually in them with my daughter so I removed her and gave full body and head shots. Please play fair I am the ONLY person showing up looking like mine. I am disappointed and yet my dates are NOT this not fair at all!! (I know this practice go both ways) but this is lost on me it is a total waste of time, and effort. I am being upfront on what I want/like/look the same in return would be appreciated greatly :)
Lastly politics are huge these days and it is also about your core values as well. Everyone in Washington should be sent home packing all of them they are a disgrace period! That said I am not a liberal nor like this President. If you are either we would not make a good match. Sorry agree or not "it is what it is" I say it now to be very clear about my values. BTW I never say I am a right winger nor a Republican I am an Independent that hates this administration and Presidency!
Thank you for reading my profile I wish you luck as well! Char

Date a woman from Phoenix, United States. I LOVE meeting new people**
**ONLY people that have healthy relationship skills, who are honest, have a positive attitude, manners, are reciprocal, non judgmental and in terms of dating potential: desire a relationship. I AM NOT open to "hook ups". I do not go to bars to meet men.**
What makes me unique is that Im extremely young and playful at heart - yet grounded and stable as an adult should be. :) Im giving and loving; yet Im not a doormat. I stand up to people. I like communicative, honest, funny, emotionally healthy/ mature, and genuine guys who are demonstrative and affectionate.
Others would describe me as being energetic, happy 99% of the time, firey, fun, and flirty. I hear alot that Im a "guy's girl" - down to earth comfortable in jean shorts, a wife beater no makeup yet am very girly, interested in fashion and ROCK the little black dress like no other.
I'd just like a nice guy, someone easy to talk to and LAUGH with, someone I can explore the world with, look over and smile at, hold hands with... someone who just GETS ME.
*Footnote* PLEASE DO NOT WASTE MY TIME if you are a dishonest person.
If you've ever been called dishonest, lied, cheated, misrepresented yourself, play games, have too many women, are a player chauvinist or arrogant, judgmental, picky, have a chip on your shoulder, dont know how to relax and go with the flow, unforgiving etc. (they all go hand in hand) I dont want to play mommy or psychologist to someone that doesnt get it, so here's my one piece of advice: Get off match, grow up and do some serious self help before you infect the rest of us with your toxicity.
As we speak, Im creating my own psychological exam for you to PASS, I'd also like 3 references - your MOM does not count! : ) before I give you my number. :)
Its funny how LONG my profile has gotten with my list of things I DONT WANT after having been on the site for a little while.
I joined match because I work alot and dont get out much, but would like to actually DATE A NICE, HONEST GUY.

Meet someone special from Arizona, United States. I am curious, kind, healthy and independent. I value character, integrity, warmth, the golden rule in all its manifestations.
I love outdoor activities, and can't get enough fresh air out of it. I miss redwood trees, river, ocean ...
The time I enjoy the most is a good conversation which stimulates my mind, With the right person, I can be silly. I can laugh, giggle like a child .... I always have open mind to learn new things. I grew up and lived in big cities. Small things in life make me happy. I am a down-to-earth person. Life is journey, not the destination. With the common goals and dreams, the journey makes the life together challenge, meaningful and fun.
I am seeking a man who can be my friend, lover and partner. I hope to meet one warm and wonderful man who has the magic combination of brain and kindness. One who is independent, intelligent, and friendly ......for companionship, for love, for adventures, and quiet moments.... Successful relationships are built on a foundation of trust, mutual respect, communication, and the ability to compromise differences.
I have a daughter who is working on her medical career. Nothing can make a parent prouder than watching her own child growing as an independent, successful, caring and loving person.
What you read and see is the genuine me. Most of my pictures were taken in May, 2012. Life is too much fun to enjoy, instead of wasting time playing games.
Work like you don't need the money.
Sing like no one is listening.
Love like you have never been hurt.

Date a soulmate from Arizona, United States. I have five kids who I spend a lot of time with and I also have thirteen grandkids that I adore and spoil. I am looking for someone that makes me laugh but knows when to be serious. I am looking for someone that is self sufficient, enjoys life and is ready to settle down with that special person.

Meet a woman from Arizona, United States. Do you eat to live or live to eat? I live to eat! Great food and great conversation... Does it get any better than that? I look for honesty, respect and integrity in a person. Laughter is a must and not taking life too seriously! I'm a great friend to those around me.

Date someone special from United States. I moved to Arizona from Chicago in 2010 and I really am enjoying the desert. I love the sunny days, blue skies and outdoor activities. Change is good, and I'm happy to be here! But, one thing is missing: someone to enjoy the amazing sunsets with me!
If you are a smart, charming, handsome guy who can tell a good joke, enjoys golf and mountain biking, knows good wine and has the desire and time to travel, we should hang out. Be sure you have a valid passport; my last stamp count was 43 countries/commonwealths (thank you QE2) and there's a bucket list calling my name. I'm an entrepreneur, and work hard so I can take time off to enjoy the good things in life.
I'm a Midwestern girl at heart. I grew up in small central Illinois town where we didn't lock our doors and knew all our neighbors. I enjoy going home to waterski, hang out on the boat and jet-ski with my extended family on our little lake. I have a dear friend who lives in Aspen so I go to Colorado skiing as much as I can to ski, hike or ride horses with her. When I am not on the run, you will find me on South Mountain or at Lifetime in a spinning class.
The lessons you learn as a kid stay with you forever, so I hope you have great manners, self confidence and you understand what it means to "pay it forward". Don't carry around old baggage, it doesn't travel well into the future. Trust and honesty are very important character traits, imperative to a relationship, and dishonesty is a deal breaker for me. (So honestly list your age and height, and have the decency to include a recent photo in your profile. No photo, no response, sorry dude!)
I've been told I have a happy smile, am an eternal optimist, and a good friend. I am looking for a partner who is drama-free and ready for a relationship. Do you play well with the other kids in the sandbox?
My mantra for 2012: Smile. Life is good. No drama, please.
I quit saving the "good wine" for a special occasion- life is short, so let's pop that cork!

Date a woman from United States. My name is Melodie and I am single after 21 years. I've been on my own for two years and i'm ready to check out some single men in my area. I have 3 young sons so my time is limited but I feel like I have enough time alone to try and find someone compatible. You would need to be busy with your own life and come to appreciate the time that we do spend together.
I am no health nut (though I should be), I cook, eat and drink beer on Friday nights. I run after kids all day so jean and tennis shoes are what I wear but I love my cowboy boots when the time is right. Can you say low maintenance? I wouldn't change a thing. I'm happy, I love life and I look forward to what the future holds. It can only get better when I find you...
You are confident, funny, love to laugh, love to talk, you are affectionate and wear a smile on your face in the morning when you wake up. I love a morning person.

. I am a wonderful woman, mother, friend, and lover. I love to laugh out loud. I love to have strong arms wrapped around me. And have a great time at whatever I am doing. The man I am looking for must be secure in who he is. Definetly no complainers please. Funny helps too. Don't take life so seriously. Sincere in his intentions.
My friends would describe me as a great friend, funny, sweet, with not much filter when it comes to the truth.
I love to go camping, Sedona is my favorite place to go.
I am looking for a fun guy to spend time with and just laugh and have a great time.

. The important thing about me...I try to give more to life and the world than I take. That might be the most important thing about me. I am easy-going but still driven; I love to laugh, but am focused when I need to be; I am loyal almost to a fault; I move FAST...I don't mean metaphorically, like in relationships...I mean literally: I am the first one ready to go and I walk fast and move fast and people often think I am in a hurry or stressed out, when I'm not. It's just that my natural pace is quicker than most people's. It's served me well in life...I can do in one day what it takes my friends days-and-days to do. And they'll admit it.
Some serious stuff: I am a mother, teacher, writer, runner, friend, and volunteer...those are the important roles, anyway, and I am passionate about each of them. I am stable, generally serene, but still very inspired by life.
My kids are 17 and 19, and they are pretty self-sufficient and wonderful. I am very active in my community and at the school where I teach. I run every day and have done so since I was 12. I have had the same best friend since I was 14, which I only include because I think it shows some degree of loyalty on my part.
I am looking for someone who can add something positive to my already happy life, someone who can make me laugh (which sounds cliche, but it's really not), someone who can handle that I often see the world a bit differently than most people I know--which has also served me well in life. It's made a unique teacher to my students, and it's made me a fairly successful blogger, which you'd never know from what I am writing here, because I find this mode of writing to me intimidating.
Some disclaimers:
I am not interested in having more kids, so if that's what you want, please move on. I don't think I am interested in dating someone from out of state, but I am not sure on that one (i seem to get a ton of "winks" from out-of-state men). I don't drink, and I don't care too much if you do, but the chances are that if your photos show you with booze, I'm probably going to pass.

. New to all this...so all I can say about me, is Im an east coast girl, transplanted to AZ for 14 years and I so miss the water. I much prefer the atlantic over the pacific but heck beggers can be choosey. So some how, some day need to get a bit closer to the beach.
Im a realist...and basically what you see is what you get. One of the best ways for me to descibe myself is, I am who I am, nothing more or less and nothing pretenious. However, if I am being truthful....I can appear a bit tough on the surface, but sometimes the best candy has a hard outer shell!
I do not fit many molds, if any at all, which I think is a good thing. I maintain a small circle which is just they way I am...However I also like going out and can work a room filled with anyone. In otherwords, Im comfortable enough in my skin, to be comfortable around anyone and actually be sincere.
No time for games, life is too short and we must enjoy it and make the best of what time we have.
As you can see I have curly hair, but I wear it straight more than not.
Nuf said for now.
