Date women from United States / California / Lompoc, 56 year old

Date a soulmate from California, United States. I am a very independent woman. I take care of myself not only by going to the gym 3 to 4 times a week but by eating healthy. I love cooking, love to try new dishes. I love dancing, wish I can find someone that can dance with me...salsa is my favorite music to dance. I love life, family, values, integrity. I'm a faithful, funny at times and easygoing person. I admire and respect honesty. I love the beach, the sound of the waves, the smell of the ocean... its therapeutic to me. I enjoy simple things as enjoying a good latte, walking at the park holding hands, watching a family video, baking brownies...Miss tight hugs and slow and tender kisses. I am very affectionate.
My perfect match would be someone that is happy, enjoys life, takes care of himself, physically active, someone that has good eating habits, please no smokers!! financially independent, someone with values, with a good sense of humor, that makes me laugh. And finally someone like me... craving to love and to be loved.
To me Chemistry is very important, I would say it is crucial. I truly believe that a relationship is built first on friendship and the rest is easy. If I ever meet that special person I will spoil him with lots of attention, love and respect and I would like to be treated the same way.
(Please do not send me messages without your picture! Thank you!)

Meet someone special from California, United States. I've lived in CA most of my life, and that has helped form my preference for being outdoors, whether it be sport or work or just a walk on the beach, so I am very close to nature, and natural ways of being; honesty and truth, simple things that connote elegance, pleasurable environments. I tend to believe that we create our own place in this world, and I find the desire and need to share it with someone like-minded. I love to laugh, sing, dance, and also meditate, read and write. I'm enigmatic in that I must have company about 50% of the time, but then I absolutely need quiet time, alone or with someone next to me, where I don't necessarily have to have a conversation. I like movies, dining out, fun cooking in, good books by classic authors and contemporary new writers. I am independent and strong, determined and firm about decision-making, yet gentle, kind, and caring. I like learning new things and experiencing that with others, probably as a result of my teaching career. I'm hoping to find someone near me but am willing to engage in a long-distance relationship with someone worthy. I expect the most from myself and therefore in someone I meet, and hopefully I haven't set the bar too high, but I seek quality here...whatever that turns out to be in a match. I pray to find someone here, and it might just be you...
