Love is composed of a Single Soul inhabiting Two Bodies.:)
The Hardest thing in life is to find Someone who knows all your flaws/differences/mistakes and still see the Best in You..Life is about being honest and sharing your happiness with others. I am an East Coast (CT) transplant, but i'm a CA beach gurl. I'm still very much looking for that special connection with a like-minded, like-soul, like-spirited gentleman that transcend time to share special moments with.
I'm not looking for someone to Complete me; hoping to meet someone who will desire and accept me Completely.:) I'm not into the partying/bar/club scenes. I prefer dining out, cultural events, and health fitness outings most.:)
Please pass me by if you're a gamer/player/ or scammer not from CA or from the US; thanks. Authenticity and honesty are a must.
Sometimes it takes awhile to find the right person, but the right person is always worth the wait and i'm willing to wait for that special person. Looking for a happy, healthy, long-lasting, non-drama, non-stress, non-game relationship.:)I'd like to find a gentleman who shares a passion for adventures, travel, food, sports, cultures, architectures, and the arts:) Life is short, so do what makes you happy. Be with those who make you smile. Laugh as much as you breathe, and love as long as you live.. and that's Me..
I was married for 20 yrs, divorced for 7 yrs. I have 2 great kids (22 , 20). They both are attending college. I'm so proud of my kids. I love the feeling of being in love and truly miss being in a healthy relationship. I wish to have my 'last first date' and get off this site but i'm not in any rush because i want you to get to know me from the inside first. I have learned to embrace and appreciate my own imperfections and hoping that i'll meet the other imperfect man who's 'perfect' for me. Someone who'll accept me for who i'm as i'd of him.
Chemistry and Communication are very important to me, and so is Loyalty. I'm honest and loyal to a fault.
My friends and family would describe me as normal with a modern bohemian twist, spunky, sincere, kind, unpretentious, caring, empathetic, passionate, and have a big heart. I like to laugh a lot, life is short..:) I like to go to funky, retro and artsy cities/beaches to visit/ppl watch/sample local food beverages. My interests varied from eating healthy, keeping a fit/balanced life, and making happiness a priority in life. A Healthy life is a Happy Life and vice versa.My wish is to find a gentleman with values/integrity/humor/depth/character/intelligenc
e who can appreciate current events, local/world news, and each others' company in a healthy,monogamous relationship.I hope to join my Match in exploring different local and afar places together. I'm hopeful for a match who is both a Challenge and a Friend to my mind since i enjoyed all intelligent and humorous discussions..:)
I'm a one-man woman (20 yrs marr) and miss the holding hands, and being able to say loving words to that one special person in my life. i want to find a heart that will love me at my worst and arms that will hold me at my weakest and i'll do the same for you. I'm looking for a caring, funny, romantic man whom i have chemistry with.
Since my kids are grown, i can possibly be free to relocate anywhere 'tropical warm' with the right match too....:)

Date a soulmate from Granite Bay, United States. Ok... I think my fish may not be in this pool, but if you are, let me know, because I think I am cutting bait. In the course of working on a project tonight, I just finished talking with a gentleman who lost his wife of many years recently, and it was so clearly evident how much he loved her. That is what I would love to have and love to give. I have done the giving, and it's not something any one person can do on their own. There needs to be two, both willing and both doing. Spiritually, I believe there needs to be three.
I am very down to earth, honest, adventerous, compassionate, responsible, friendly with a dry sense of humor and open hearted. Although opposites may attract, I am looking for someone pretty similar at least where values are concerned. Actually, the possibilities of what the future holds for me as a single person with no limits intrigues me, but there is growing part of me that wants to find someone very special to share these experiences and expand my life through being a part of his. Right now, I love, love, love being a mom , but with an older teen, I am having increasingly more time on my own. I know the sad day when he leaves for college will come sooner than I would like, so I am starting the transition into my next phase in life. I just know for now I would like to meet some one to start a friendship with during the times my teen is spreading his wings (i.e. driving to activities on his own). Someone who has a meaningful life, who is fun to be with, likes to learn new things, and is open to new friendships. Most of the details about interests are not that important to me. Oh, and I would love a ballroom dancing partner to practice the steps my son and I have been learning. If we have interests in common (I love racquetsports, photography, hiking, animals, skiing, hanging out with my friends, playing music with and listening to others play, eating good food and am a pretty decent cook by necessity, discussing interesting books and ideas, volunteering to help others, gardening, running, biking, looking at and trying to do art, etc.) then great, we can share some of these interests together. If not, maybe we can share something new with each other.
Among my "musts" for me to believe we won't be setting ourselves up for heartbreak down the road... someone who is honest, has integrity, shares my faith or is actively pursuing truth, is free from addictions, and is able to participate in a reciprocal relationship. I notice a lot of people are focused primarily on having fun. That's a wonderful part of life, but not my primary focus. I volunteer to help girls recover from exploitation, so anyone really into erotica will not be a match for me. It's a tough topic and having fun and a good laugh does help me balance it all out. Right now, I get a ton of laughs with my son and enjoy some good friends, but would love to have someone with whom I can enjoy doing things every now and then, currently, and increasingly more in the future.
P.S. If you previously caught my typo.... "animals skiing" with no comma, I have not figured that one out yet, but would love to know if someone out there has. Running with me is pretty much the highlight of my dog's day, so I can only imagine what she would think of skiing with me! Our new cat, well, I think he would probably just give me a piece of his mind the whole way down...
