Date someone special from Pasadena, United States. The journey, not the arrival matters. I see travel as a metaphor for life and have been fortunate to make many trips over the years. While in Europe over the holidays, I found having the world at my feet was a good time to ponder this "second act" of my life. I did prepare for this trip, but the happiest moments often came when I stumbled onto one thing in pursuit of another. I have the luxury of choosing how to spend this time of my life: I am looking for someone who has that same level of freedom and is willing and excited to explore these impromptu moments with me.
Staying physically healthy is important to me, and I hope it's important to you as well. While I love to dress up, you will usually find me in my jeans, but I will most likely also be wearing a pretty scarf. Taking care of myself has allowed me to enjoy walking all over the cities I visited. I regularly take yoga and Pilates and try to get in belly dancing classes as often as possible. One of the best parts of my day is spending time with my Westie, Emma. So far she only has two coats (which has taken great restraint on my part!) I do hope you have a good throwing arm as Emma requires at least 30 minutes of fetch in the evening and I could use a willing partner as we combine playing with Emma while sharing a good glass of wine. Emma has me well trained!
I love the sunshine, warm weather, the beach, and in general, living in SOCAL. I was reminded during my winter adventure in Europe, just how important the sun is to me. I hadn't forgotten the fact of the cold, but the opportunity arose, I dressed warmly, and had a terrific time!
I must say, that Paris in the spring or fall is magical and I would love to return with a partner who is playful and free spirited. Someone who will tolerate my attempt at French songs as we walk along the Seine, and wander the streets amd alleys, and sip our coffee or wine at a little sidewalk cafe. I love French and take lessions, though I am far from fluent.
While I love to travel, I enjoy being at home as well. I recently sold my home in Porter Ranch and purchased a craftsman in Pasadena. I am ready for that second act! While out and about I enjoy poking in shops, bookstores, going out to lunch, going to the threatre or a musuem. I relax at home by eating a simple meal, reading, listening to music, practicing French, or turning on the TV...all under Emma's watchful eye. I'd love to find someone to share these activities with...well, the French isn't necessary! You just need to tolerate my pursuit!
I have a group of trustworth, bright, and good natured friends whom I treasure. I have three sons I adore who live out of state. I focus on maintaining a great relationship with each of them. I hope you have these kinds of special friends and family, as well, that enrich you life. While it's not important that we share all interests, there are certain values and qualities that are very important to me. I am a Christian who struggles with the complexities of the faith while I am respectful of other tradtions. I am an educated person with an advanced degree and I enjoy giving back by volunteering in my profession. I want to be with someone who also has the same spirit of giving back. I value personal responsility in a God centered world. I am a fiscal conservative, but have more moderate social views. I will not be with someone who smokes or has an addiction of any kind. You need to be slow to anger and hopefully easy going.
I am looking for someone who is commitment minded, who sees a relationshop as mutual support rather than care giving. My wish is to spend my life with a special man that believes that every day is so much richer when it is shared with someone you love. "We live in a wonderful world that is full of beauty, charm and adventure. There is no end to the adventures we can have if we seek them with our eyes wide open."
Meet a soulmate from Pasadena, United States. I'm a sixty-something accomplished loving woman who works as an intuitive, nutritionist, acting coach, speaker and author. I consider myself truly unique, stylish, pretty, sexy and smart. I'm looking for the guy my guides have told me I knew in my last life. I have no idea what age, looks, sensibilities he has in this lifetime. Can you be he?
I'm looking for someone who can say "I see you" (as in AVATAR) and supports and loves me as much as I do him. Romance is great but an open mind and keen intellect is more important to me at this stage of my life. And I've always dreamed of getting in the kitchen and cooking with my mate; since I was once a chef, I've always been in there alone. Optional but desired.
Since I'm an expatriot New Yorker, I love theatre, concerts, opera, ballet, movies and museums. But I'm not one to only sit and watch. For example, I sing MESSIAH in the choir every year and just deadlifted 105# and overhead-pressed 60 today. My life is very filled with work, friends and fun. I'm also building both my businesses which takes a bit of my time. I just started teaching acting again. And, of course, there's the eZine, blogs and my monthly column, Art and Soul, that I write for Now Casting. My passions also run to good restaurants and fine wine. And I'm open to things new that pique my interest.
Oh, and did I mention that I just restored my 1983 280ZX. RED!

Date a soulmate from California, United States. I'm a teacher who would like to retire, but in this economy can't. I would like to spend more time with the horses and dogs. So I'm looking for a friend or friends mostly to have fun, carry on a conversation, go to a movie, and/or just hangout.
Meet a woman from California, United States. Family and friends are most important to me. Since my husband passed away of cancer over 10 years ago, I have not dated much. I would LOVE to find that special someone with whom I could laugh, giggle, hold hands; and, share secret thoughts and intimate feelings for the rest of my life. I totally enjoyed being married in the past, however... in the last 10 years, I have become more independent. I am low maintenance.
Since I am involved with raising money for youth music programs, I would hope my partner would also be involved or at least support me. There are fundraisers and events connected with the organization and I would love to have an escort at times. I LOVE TO DANCE; AND, A PARTNER WOULD BE A NICE TOUCH. I do not expect my perfect match to be with me at all times. I would hope my perfect match would have important interests of his own that I could either be with him or at least support.
I'm not interested in dating for the sake of just dating.

. Do you like dark eyes and an inquiring mind? A woman, who, although she has learned to plant her own garden, still appreciates receiving a bouquet of flowers... Although, I was born and bred on the east coast (the Boston area), I have spent most of my adult life in Southern California. The blending of "the best of both of these worlds" has created a unique combination of "New England Reserve" and "West Coast Free Spirit"... Well traveled, eclectic in most things... Lakers' Fan....Special skill; I'm a whiz with a racing form! Sophisticated, but not jaded... If you have survived "mid-life crisis" without taking yourself too seriously... Have a quick wit and a young spirit... and insist on celebrating life... I want you....A best friend, confidant and playmate would be heaven sent. I work too much and need to learn to play! Although, I can be very strong in my business relationships, I am an incurable romantic in my personal relationships. I appreciate a man who is self confident and comforable within himself. We don't have to like all of the same things, we just have to like each other! It's all about chemistry, isn't it!
