Date women from United States / California / Perris, 43 year old

Date a woman from United States. When people first meet me, they consider me the typical girl-next-door. I tend to be on the shy side with a a prospective date, and yet I can talk to anyone in line at the grocery store. IРІР‚в„ўm confident in my career as a high school teacher; IРІР‚в„ўve even led teacher training meetings. Why am I so shy with an attractive man? I canРІР‚в„ўt really say.
I donРІР‚в„ўt need a man to make me complete, but I am hoping to find a man to spend the rest of my life with. He would be active, love to travel and enjoy exploring new areas, music, art, cultures and foods. Saturdays would be spent hiking near a lake, wine tasting, on a picnic on the beach, or singing karaoke with friends and a pizza. Sunday mornings would be spent reading with breakfast in bed. Vacations would be like long weekends set in Hawaii, Oregon, Washington, Europe or some place new. This life is spent in a calm, drama free relationship. There is no need to yell or fight. Between us there are intellectual discussions about a book, issue or movie. Opinions are respected.
I am a romantic at heart. I am interested in a long-term, romantic relationship. I have a laid back, easy-going personality. I love a lot of different things including the arts and camping. I am very busy with my professional career as an English teacher and taking online classes, but it does not mean I wonРІР‚в„ўt have time for that special someone. I have non-traditional ideals about a lot of things. I have fun living life to its fullest.
Things that I find make a good match for me:
1. Intelligence
2. Humorous/Sarcastic
3. Goal oriented (That includes having a career.)
4. Easy going
5. Explorer of life
6. Kind
7. You live with in 1 hour of Perris, CA
A few notes: I like men around my age or a little older, 40-50 years old. I'm friendly, so I usually answer my emails. I can't handle being around cigarette smoke; I'm allergic and asthmatic. I do not want children; I raised two great kids already. I don't mind if you have kids, but I am not willing to become their mom. I do not want a long distance relationship. There is no need for you to be offended if I let you know that I'm not interested. I won't get offended if you aren't interested in me. I find that it's best to be honest from the start.
