Date women from United States / California / Placentia, 42 year old

Date someone special from Placentia, United States. I am simplistic; however a classy and ambitious lady. I am basically a happy, carefree, the sky is the limit kind of a girl. This on line thing is a first. I am still trying to understand what guys want in a woman. I love to laugh and I love to go for the star. I want that prince charming. I know he is out there. I am originally from the Caribbean islands. I love the beach, and I like be silly and be myself. When you get to meet me I will further tell you my story.
The guy that I am looking for should be someone strong, funny, kind, caring, happy and employed. I am looking for the one!

Meet a woman from Placentia, United States. I am a very feminine Latina, who loves to have fun, who doesn't? I was raised in South America, and love my culture and everything it entails. I was raised by a mother who was always made up, even to stay home, so I try to look good most of the time, hair and make up done and usually perfectly manicured. Although I consider myself a strong independent woman, I like to be treated like a princess. I am looking for a strong, well established, professional man who can love, and protect me (CAVEWOMAN) and grow old by my side.
The YIN to my YANG. My best friend. My balance. My soulmate. A man who has my back as much as I have his. A man who is not intimidated by PDAs, yet I know everything has a right time and place. My ideal guy has to be someone I look up to, someone I can admire, and be proud of. However, not to be so consumed in his work, that he forgets I exist. Someone who can surprise me with flowers, just because, and who can plan a romantic getaway for us, all on his own (go figure)
Playing it by ear is ok from time to time, yet, I'm all about planning. A man who brings out the best in me and understands me, to where we can compliment each other to the fullest without losing each of our identities.
A good human being, who understands how important my children are to me. Even though my oldest two are adults and practically live their own independent lives, they'll always be my babies. (When my doctor said to push, I didn't think it would take twenty some years to push them out!! LOL )
It's my 14yr old girl who gets most of my attention, and will continue to do so, until she's all grown up. She's my last chance at being a parent, and I wanna live it to the fullest.
Traveling is up there on my list as well as learning about different religions and cultures. I am very big on my heritage and was raised with the mentality of men and women having different roles. I know mine, and enjoy cooking and taking care of my family. That doesn't mean I like being a slave, but don't mind catering to my man. Although, I think few things could be sexier than a man who can cook!
I can have as much fun eating at a taco stand in Tijuana, as having Sunday brunch at Shutters, so I don't consider myself high maintenance (wink), even though I enjoy the finer things in life.
Most of all, I want a healthy, happy, fully devoted and commited relationship and to feel fulfilled. I refuse to be anyone's passtime, so no games pleeeez!
I know meeting my other half could be done here, so if you're just looking for casual sex (which I've heard this site is stellar at), don't waste your time writing to me. NOT INTERESTED!
I've ben waiting for fate to bring me my soulmate, but perhaps it needs a little hand, so here it is!!
ps: I am not used to and don't like chasing men, so don't be shy and make the first move ;)
