Date women from United States / California / Eureka - page 6

Date someone special from Eureka, United States. My mother wanted me to be a teacher. I was always fascinated with children, their smiling faces, and how much they like to learn. But, now that IРІР‚в„ўm retired from the classroom, IРІР‚в„ўm fascinated with free time and how fast I can fill it.
IРІР‚в„ўm looking for a warm, creative gentleman with a good sense of humor and a clever mind. . . someone who likes to laugh. I want a good friend with a deep, inner integrity like my grandfather used to have; a quiet, imperceptible confidence, and a good sense of focus and direction. In the beginning, I like the slow train to intimacy. ThereРІР‚в„ўs only one beginning to a relationship and I want to savor it. A man who moves too fast isn't attractive to me. There's nothing as enticing as delayed gratification while you figure someone out. I want a loving, monogamous relationship with a man my age, someone who understands the unique experiences of our generation. And I love dimples.
I am an open-minded liberal, believe in personal freedom for all, and I gravitate toward people who think like me. Religious conservatives can give me the willies. I donРІР‚в„ўt seek out clairvoyants or gurus. I donРІР‚в„ўt meditate. I concentrate. I imagine two previously unrelated ideas in successful combination. I envision the final result and work toward it. I love the mystery of life and figuring out the puzzles and problems it brings. I donРІР‚в„ўt drink alcohol but I will enjoy an occasional brownie. I am a happy girl.
I rarely party or go out at night because being at home is fun. I love projects. Exercise is a part of my life, as is eating well. I grow my own vegetables and fruits in a garden I lovingly tend. Sometimes eBay auctions beckon me to bid. And I will shop at Amazon for Kindle books to read while riding my stationary bike. Now reading The Power of One (fiction). I love Basia and harmonize with her when no oneРІР‚в„ўs around. I like Shameless, The Good Wife, and sometimes Piers Morgan on tv. Netflix movies are great. And I enjoy restoring my little Victorian and flea market finds. You can see beautiful sunsets on Humboldt Bay from my kitchen window.

Meet someone special from California, United States. Looking for an energetic, warm, loving, mature woman? I have worked as a school psychologist, counselor, child advocate and now work with disabled adults and teach classes for people dealing with chronic conditions. I facilitate a group at the Aldzheimer's Center for caretakers. I enjoy a warm fire, soft music and friendly conversation. I like being outdoors, gardening, enjoying natural environs. I camped for years and love the redwoods especially, but am thinking a cabin or R.V. might be more comfortable now. World travel is fun, but I am more of a homebody than a world traveler, like country life more than city, love living on the north coast. I like to be around rivers and lakes more than ocean as I historically get seasick. I do not golf (sorry) but might like to learn and do not enjoy watching sports on T.V. Family is very important to me. My exercise is limited by my work week (and ambition), but I enjoy walking and camping and the stationary bike and laps at the health club, the hot tub and massages. I do not smoke (anything), have no addictions and have never tried recreational drugs. I am in good health, am seldom sick, like to eat healthily, with lots of veggies and fruits, but have a weakness for dark chocolate and a glass of wine. Probably my favorite dish is shrimp scampi. I enjoy piano, classical and easy listening music, 60's music (of course), occassional country.I like the occassional movie, usually DVDs. I do not have cable TV. I currently have two cats and a medium-size rescue dog . I am debt-free but not wealthy. I like going to basketball games and baseball or football if it isn't too cold out!
I am looking for a long term relationship with a man who shares similar feelings for nature and healthy living, is an environmentalist at heart, is willing to share in all aspects of a partnership. I would like to find someone who is a friend as well as a lover, kind, affectionate, a good listener, a reader, not addicted to watching T.V. sports, not a couch potato or a computer potato either. Honesty and a sense of humor is a must, someone who has his own interests but wants to spend time with me as well. Hoping to find someone who would enjoy sharing the activities on my (or his) 'bucket list.' I am looking for a person who will be comfortable, fun and affectionate . I am not looking to be joined at the hip, but it would be important to spend time together enjoying mutual interests. I want to get to know someone well before commiting to something more. Smokers (of anything) do not interest me. My guy would like cats, since I come with. Smokers or recreational drug users need not respond. I do not necessarily want to remarry, but who knows (and if he knows, he should tell me!).
I have been separated for five years now and I need to get on with my life. I have traveled with my daughters to Germany, Austria, Greece, Italy, England and Japan. My favorite places were hiking Cinque Terre and the Tuscany region of Italy. We hosteled and hiked quite a bit, and only did one 'tour.' I often drive the 101 to the bay area to see my daughter, who is married. When my divorce is final, I will probably downsize and move south to be nearer my first grandchild, due in August. Latest vacation was to Grand Teton and Yellowstone with my youngest daughter.
I like to read. Latest books were Play Dead, Getting the Love You Want, Is It Alzheimer's?, Stupid White Men, Broken , Deep Green Resistance. I liked The Healing of America, What We Leave Behind and Tall Trees or Wild Trees.
This feels really strange - like an advertisment. I realize everyone comes with some sort of baggage, but no one wants to have very many negative surprises. Hopefully we will all find someone who has honestly portrayed themselves. Some of my pictures are old, but I am usually the one taking the pictures (my excuse). Good luck in finding a kindred soul within range. They are out there

Meet a woman from California, United States. I would like to meet a nice, honest, gentle man who would like to share common interests and live life to it's fullest. There are many things that I enjoy doing. Houseboating on Trinity Lake is of great interest to me. In summer, I spend time at the lake with friends and family, boating, waterskiing, and fishing. I like to travel to far away places and see new things. Last year, my daughter and I RV'd to South Dakota to see Mt. Rushmore. It was breath-taking! I was able to take my adorable little Havenese dog, Bailee, with us. My family is a big part of my life and I enjoy spending time with them. My favorite holiday is Christmas. I enjoy plays, concerts, walking and dancing. Recently, I have learned to play golf (sort of). It's a tough game to learn and I need a lot more practice. I guess it's never too late to do the things we enjoy.

Date someone special from United States. Hi!
So, yes, I am looking for a soulmate. I am a happy, well adjusted, reasonably intelligent woman, independent, but open minded and respectful of the opinion of others. I am honest, sincere, somewhat shy until I get to know someone. I have a full time job in the medical billing dept. of a large group of internal medicine specialists. It's a great job, but I will be retiring by the end of next year, maybe sooner. I'm looking forward to doing some traveling and just enjoying life without the stress of working all the time. It would be so much more pleasant to enjoy the good things in life if I had someone to share experiences with. I am looking for someone who is honest, trustworthy, gentle, kind, compassionate, loving and fun! I feel I have much to bring to a relationship and would put my heart and soul into making the right man happy and being there for him through the good times and the bad ones too and would expect him to do the same. Relationships are built on trust, faith, love, friendship, and truth for starters. It takes two devoted people to make it work. I'm willing to try. How about you? Are you interested?

Meet a soulmate from United States. If I had my "druthers," my beloved and I would have discovered each other years ago. Together, we would have built an interesting and relaxed history. We would be at ease with each other, knowing what makes us laugh together, what we like to do, and where we like to go. In short, we would be comfortable together.
However, life did not happen that way -- yet. I am continually hopeful that it is not too late, but am apprehensive all the same.
For many years, I had a career centered on making conditions better for rural families, and for small, local businesses. My work commanded the major portion of my time and energies, and I loved it. I got to travel across the country as well as become intimately acquainted with rural Oregon. I’d still be working if I had not quit in order to take care of my ailing mother, and to help my brother-in-law with my ailing sister. But with me, family is paramount. Even if I sometimes long for the “good old days,” I would not – and realistically could not – change a thing.
Today, I live in a small studio built for me by my son and have a seven-year-old cockapoo who was rescued after being released to a kill-shelter (an oxymoron, if I ever heard one) by a notorious puppymill. She is a sweet little thing and, in the scant two years I have had her, has developed into an individual with a mind of her own. Together we walk at least a mile a day and have several routes we both agree on: Old Town along the waterfront; Halverson Park with a bay shore trail that goes under the bay bridge; Sequoia Park with redwood trees, a steep hill and zoo noises; and, of course, the beach when the tide is right – most likely nearby as the doggie is anxious for her daily walk. I don’t know which of us benefits more – the dog whose muscle tone continues to improve after being locked up in a kennel for the better part of five years or me who applies the exercise to staving off osteoporosis.
My idea of a good relationship is one in which the potential partners present and share real and honest attitudes, behaviors and beliefs from the beginning. When this happens, I believe the relationship can be strong enough to withstand any negatives that are bound to get in the way. And, no matter who we are or what age, there are bound to be obstacles of one kind or another.

Date someone special from Eureka, United States. Quiet but fun loving Very good natured. Loves to cook but also dine out. I love music, almost all kinds. Like animals but not really in the house.
