Date women from United States / Arizona / Phoenix, 55 year old

Date someone special from Phoenix, United States. hi,
former USMC, former mechanic, motor transport. now into writing historical fiction, and fantasy.
love science fiction movies, older movies over the newer. appreciate the character development, and story. movies should take you away to another time and place. i do love any good movie, new or old.
in a relationship i want to be appreciated, for being me. friends first share in common interests, and topics of conversations. if it does not work out both accept it and part as friends.
body type, i was always considered skinny. now i am considered slim, or average, i feel not at my best, working on it. doing yoga, and tai-chi, for stretching and toning.
working to over come obstacles that life has placed in my path. looking for distraction, of myself. i want to go places, see mountains of ice and green. i will always need mountains around me. the desert is my ancestry, over 100 yrs in az. but my heart needs cold and ice, my eyes need green. i miss the rain and thunder storms of my childhood the enormous hot rain drops, the loud crack and crashes of thunder, the torrential down pours that fill the washes and rivers that exist only when it rains. they call it monsoon season on the tv news. trouble is all the monsoon stopped with the name. they want the weeds gone, but that is what holds the ground together preventing the massive wall of dust. i think the earth needs care that it is crying for. i love the wilderness, where animals run free, living off the land. as a girl i was not allowed to hunt, i learned to cook, sew. well i sew to mend, not the greatest but i can fix, and mend to keep that favorite item from being tossed out, i can follow a pattern ot create my own. i made a batman costume for my son when he was 5yrs, (grown now) complete with gloves, cape cowl, and boots, and belt. good likeness, and a venom suit later at age 10.
i am looking for someone who likes to exercise, care for health, and fitness. cares for nature and the wilderness, the desert in bloom after a good summer rain. i want to go places, try new things, with in reason too extreme may not be my cup of tea. love to repell, but have a bit of intimidation of the first step. i am willing to try, just bear with me if if i hesitate a bit.
always looking for fellow marines, esp desert storm, my time was 81-94.

Meet a soulmate from Phoenix, United States. Low maintenance, down-to-earth, inventor wannabe. I'm easily entertained, but not an airhead. Pizza, beer and a movie are preferred over fine dining and the opera. Don't mind dirty work, and I won't complain that I broke a nail. Love the rain and gloomy days. Best shopping is done at yard sales, thrift stores, Home Depot, and Cabela's.
Looking for an man who has an opinion, and can make his own decisions. Good sense of humor required. Must be clean but not disinfected; at home with a hammer as well as a pool cue or fishing rod. Love to snuggle but please give me space too. Must be devoted and faithful, I will return same. Good kissers welcomed here.
I am passionate as well as compassionate. Like to explore new places, always learning something about everything. I'm not a good cook, but I eat what I make. Never had any complaints. I'm into eating healthy so not many would probably enjoy my new creations in the kitchen. A man who can cook and likes it would be great. I'll do the dishes.

I prefer younger men, and longer hair, but am open to seeing the error of my ways if the right man happens to come into my life. Facial hair is admired if kept in check. Sorry, no bald men please. Nothing personal, it just doesn't appeal to me. We all have our likes and dislikes. I am a plus-sized woman, but not obese. The man I'm looking for should know what that means and what to expect. I don't want to spend the rest of my life with the lights out. Although at the rate I'm going, I should be pretty average sized next year. I go to the gym 3 days a week, doing cardio and machines, and it's feeling good.
Give me a holler if you like my profile. I'm trying to get some more recent photos to post so you can see what I really look like. The one I'm using was taken by me with my antique cellphone. Looking forward to hearing from you. Maybe we can go out for a beer.

Date a woman from Phoenix, United States. I am one that lives to share and loves to laugh. I love spending time with those I love doing just about anything. I love art, music, travel, some sporting events, camping, day trips, exploring, museums, festivals and DIY and teamwork. I appeciate the little things in life like a kind word, smile, a joke, and yes, much like a Hallmark..sunrises, sunsets and a walk in the park. lol. Humor and integrity are important to me. I'm not so shallow I care about your financial portfolio, toys or even shoe size although I'm certain you must be proud. lol. It is friendship is most important to me.

Meet someone special from Arizona, United States. I am here looking for my last love. I am not a serial dater and prefer to take time to get to know just one person.
I am a registered nurse and work hard. Born and raised in Indiana with Midwest values. I believe we all make things way too complicated. It really canРІР‚в„ўt be this hard right??? :) I prefer to look at things in a positive manner and try to smile even when I donРІР‚в„ўt feel like it. :)I am not looking for someone to take care of me, but someone that is there for me as I will be for them.
I have two grown children, 3 grandchildren and one big Golden Retriever :)
I have a sick sense of humor which can be somewhat dry at times. But hey makes me giggle! :)I am independent and have a mind of my own :)but I am easy going and can go with the flow. I am a giver until I think I am being taken advantage of then thatРІР‚в„ўs all she wrote
I would love to find the one that I am meant to spend the rest of my life with. Are you out there? :)

Date a soulmate from Arizona, United States. I love being 55. I feel like the best years are still ahead. That keeps me curious, postitive, and open to new places and people. I'm new to online dating, but so far so good!
If you have your sights set on a "trophy" girlfriend or if you don't like women of a certain size, please look at my picture again - Nope! I have many charms, but alas! a size 2 figure is not one of them. I am of course working on self improvement in many aspects of life including fitness, but I am who I am...and I am not looking for George Clooney or Chuck Norris. . . It's perfectly fine with me if you are also less than perfect ... I'm open-minded! (although not so tolerant about smoking cigars or drinking too much).
Eventually I hope to find a new life partner, but for now, I'm seeking a good friendship that might grow -- a companion in some new adventures would be perfect! My priorities at this point in my life are to build a future that includes many wonderful friends, and to enjoy every day to the fullest, whether it's a day at work, at home, or in some tropical paradise -- every day is precious.
I have such a wide range of interests it sounds absolutely silly to list them -- suffice it to say, I enjoy learning about most things, and nothing really bores me. I would love to learn about what makes your heart speed up. For me, that's animals, music, natural science, history, and laughter.
I love ideas and the people who think about ideas. I like to read, listen to news features, or watch tv that challenges me with new ideas. People who can grasp and explain to me how a thing works are amazing to me, whether it's a game, a technology or a black hole. I love to have lively conversations about ... anything!
I really believe laughter is great medicine and maybe a fountain of youth. I laugh out loud when I'm watching Jon Stewart's The Daily Show or the Colbert Report, for example, and I love funny movies and stand-up comedy. I like to take life less seriously, and make my friends smile. After all, no one gets out alive.
I llike to browse bookstores, and sip coffee at a local patio eatery on a cool morning. I have been known to bring a dog with me, so if that sounds weird to you - try it, you might like it :)
I love to be outdoors, and in scenic, wild places, but I'm not big on sleeping on the ground or forced marches. I would like to spend more time on the water and have a dream of learning to sail. Love a good road trip, and the sounds of travel -- highways, airports, train stations - exhilarate me.
My favorite nearby get- away is San Diego or closer to home, Sedona or the Rim country -- I get itchy feet sometimes and would love to revisit New England and the Pacific Northwest, or the Caribbean. I always hope I'll get back to Europe because I never got enough of Paris, and never made it to Italy. I enjoy movies and wish I had time to see them all. I love music and I listen to everything - Muddy Waters, Lady Gaga, the Rolling Stones,, Mozart, and Alan Jackson. I love to listen to live music in a small club, on the lawn at a local festival, or at Symphony Hall. It's like nothing else.
To me, it's magic when it rains hard in the desert, and I have been known to get up in the middle of the night to watch a big wild lightening storm roll in. I crave jumping into the pool after a hot day out and about. I am a sandals and sneakers girl, but I can get dolled up for the right event too. I love merlot and champagne, but root beer floats and Sam Adams are awesome, too. I take my job seriously, but it's not my life. Some days I just enjoy being a homebody, playing with my little spoiled-rotten dogs and burying my nose in a good book, or working on some craft or knitting/crochet.
Want to see if I could be your special companion? Send me a message! Either way, thanks for taking time to read my profile

Date a woman from United States. At this moment I have decided to exit this venue. For some reason I cannot get off of every site that posts my profile. Good luck with your search. I hope this uses 200 characters. Nope not yet, maybe now

. The key to a wonderful relationship is communication. Also, integrity, which trumps everything else. If you are not honest and true, it doesn't matter how many other attributes you have. I love having fun! I have been told that I make fun, funner ( I know that's not a word, but I like it). I DO NOT do drama well, so if you have lots of that to share, please pass me by.
I love to cook and it would be great if you did too. I'm physically fit, exercise often and care about my health.
I have two grown daughters and a close family. We often get together and play cards and have a blast. I see what others see as major road blocks as a minor in life.
A word about my faith. I'm not religious, I love my culture, so I would say I'm more spiritual.
I'm looking for a man that is secure with himself, loves to laugh and takes care of women the way he wants to be treated. I will always do the same. Being with YOU anywhere we would make it fun! I know the saying, " life is too short" gets old, but I believe it and live it...meaning that, I work hard and play hard....
My photo's are up to date, why wouldn't they be????? I have met up with others that post pictures that are a joke.
I'm looking forward to a fun, honest, open communication,uninhibited love where eternity is not enough!
Lots more to say and share with the right match. I hope it's you!

. I'm an optimistic person with pretty eyes looking for a kind and professionally established man who is able to smile a lot and have fun.
I'm grateful for my loving Dad who enjoyed dialoguing with me and always valued my opinions. I'm looking for a man who is confident but also egalitarian; who opens the car door for me but also values my inner-strength as a person.
I'm hoping to attract a person who has the courage to choose love in life. And, with luck, he's handsome, intelligent, and fun.

. I am the new and improved 55! They just don't make them the same anymore : ) even I find it hard to believe always thought at this age your all washed up... hell No! Just getting started ..I just sold my Physical Therapy practice and now I work there and I don't have the stress of owning .. It was a great experience I've learned so much. But now I want to be free to do what I want and I want to have fun, and lots of it! I want to meet my match and give it my all... Be best friends and better lovers. Life is what you make of it and I want it to be a special journey. I can move where ever I want now and that is such a great feeling..
I treat others the way I want to be treated each and every day. I believe that I am a person who is a great friend and an even better partner as I am loyal as the day is long always thinking about others and how can I make their day better... More than that.. I think about how lucky I am every day and what I have... not wonder about what I don't have... I do very much admire a man who is "a man of his word".... I am looking for Movie Love... “the One”! Oh, ill know it when I meet him trust me...
First off a bit of a disclaimer: I am not much of a hiker kind of gal, did way more than my fair share with a boy scout leader dad and 3 brothers if I was hiking to a lush waterfall in Maui then yes I am a hiker ! : ) also not into laying out in the sun (I tan indoors) did that growing up in Southern Calif, hey itРІР‚в„ўs a way of life back there sun fun beaches, pools. I'm very lucky to have great skin, not going to test my luck ; )
“Bar hopping” is not my thing at all! if it's yours I am not your match....If you want a: girly girl who loves to stay in and just be together make some dinner and hang out ( yes I cook and very well thank you ) I’m that girl.
I am neither moody or selfish, same happy person every day
ItРІР‚в„ўs all about the chemistry here and that is the bottom line! And I am really a super nice person who is easy going to a fault!!!! Never want to hurt anyone but I get mail from guys that clearly are not my type. So now I have decided to get specific...
I am a “say it like it is” kind of gal anyway, and there are things I Need from a guy and here they are:
First he has to be attractive ( hey if others consider you attractive you most likely are, unless itРІР‚в„ўs your family Well then well clouded judgment is probably likely) oops sorry don't mean to offend : ) he has to have a good body ( not Mr. Olympus needed ) And jacked up teeth I can't do it sorry...please if your hiding a mouth of yellow or missing teeth, crooked ....just know it won't work for me and no use meeting me, as I have great teeth and I do because it's a big huge deal to me.... Just like my skin I take great care it's why I look so young.
Successful Yes! Not how much money you earn, more like “how you conduct your life” A fun person with a fun attitude and affectionate a must...Relationship phobic please stay away! I need devotion, here is a good one: Interest in my world, my life, my past my future.
I am looking for a man who will stick! Be Happy most of all be Real. K.
