Meet a woman from Hayward, United States. I'm a very independent woman and hope to find an independent man, someone who has his own life just as I have mine. I'm an atractive and well-educated woman who has no use for men who a rude or overbearing or illiterate. My ideal mate would be a college professor, working or retired, with a kind and loving attitude. Someone non-judgmental who can put up with and is not threatened by a strong woman. My friends, male or female will tell you that I am good company, always ready with interesting and witty conversation. What I am looking for is a relationship with occasional dates and maybe romance will develop but I'm not specifically looking for romance. I have no intention to change my life for a man and would never expect a man to change his life for me.
I'm a grandmother to two great grand daugters, ages 7 and 2, and their Golden Retriever. I live with 4 cats and am an animal activist who has been known to march with a sign to protest against animal cruelty.
I'm busy with my own paralegal enterprise and work as many hours as I need to or want to. I work for and by myself and make my own schedule. I belong to several groups related to my passions: atheism, grandmotherhood, animal activism, and the Democratic party. I would not consider a man who is in any way religious or Republican or even calling himself conservative. My life is very full but if there is a man who interests me, I can make time and room for him in my life. But not in my house! I was married for 20 years and in a 16 year serious relationship but now I relish living alone in my little cottage in Hayward.
