Date women from United States / California / Placentia, 57 year old

Date a soulmate from California, United States. I'd like to meet someone who enjoys life and can have fun doing most anything. I appreciate seeing their quiet confidence. I'm very nurturing and quite protective of the feelings of those I'm close to.
I have great relationships with each of my two sons, who currently live out of state. I grew up in the San Fernando Valley, where my Mom and Step-Dad still live.
I enjoy being around intelligent, calm, and thoughtful people who can laugh! I seem to be able to find humor in most any situation. I still have a childlike wonder and excitement about life in general. The littlest things can make me happy.
I like to walk on my lunch hour and swim in the evenings (during the warmer months). Of course, listening to K-Earth 101 and songs that I actually know the words to, helps me to walk/swim to the beat (MUCH more fun that way).
I like sharing in other people's interests and learning anything new. I have a very curious mind.
Qualities that don't go over very well with me are impatience and rudeness. I love the quote "Be patient with those who may not understand". I have never been into drama, and don't really know how to "play games". I am always honest, but polite in how I get my point across.
I am respectful and loyal, and truly know that my special guy is out there. I look forward to meeting him!
