Date women from United States / California / Reseda, 51 year old

Date a soulmate from California, United States. I am happy, confident and independent, but not a feminist. I DO appreciate and expect someone opening the door for me. =)
I dedicate a lot of personal and professional time working with animals (I have two dogs and three cats … don’t worry, I’m not the “crazy cat lady” … LOL). It’s a noisy home at times … but it’s always a clean, pleasant and happy place to be.
Working out and being active are important to me. IРІР‚в„ўm not into watching a lot of TV, but I do enjoy a good movie, watching the news and some positive, fun reality TV shows. IРІР‚в„ўd rather be outdoors then watching TV, thatРІР‚в„ўs for sure.
I enjoy hiking, sailing, diving, gardening, walks on the beach, riding horses, camping, kickboxing, practicing Krav Maga and crossfit workouts.
Age does not bother me at all. IРІР‚в„ўm proud to be 51. Age is a state of mind. IРІР‚в„ўll always be young and playful.
IРІР‚в„ўm very caring and supportive, but if I think you are wrong I will tell you and I hope that you would do the same for me.
I can be formal and dress-up, but I love being down-to-earth and cuddle up in front of a fireplace with a glass of wine.
I work with the rich and famous as well as the poorest (as a volunteer) … what matters the most to me, it’s who you are as a person. That impresses me.
IРІР‚в„ўm currently separated and in a process of divorcing. My ex-husband and I just grew apart over the years. He retired early in life and was ready to move to a remote island (sounds like a joke, but itРІР‚в„ўs true). I love what I do for a living and IРІР‚в„ўm not ready to permanently live on an island, so we decided to separate. DonРІР‚в„ўt worry, weРІР‚в„ўre free of drama. =)
IРІР‚в„ўve done some great traveling in the past (Italy, France, Thailand, Tahiti, Hawaii, Alaska, South America, etc.) and would love to travel some more with someone IРІР‚в„ўm comfortable with.
IРІР‚в„ўm looking for a partner, someone who is thoughtful and I can be comfortable with; and someone who I can laugh and be silly with.
I don’t necessary have a “type”, but my ideal match will be a man with great depth of character – compassionate, honest, trustworthy, positive, kind and funny. Someone who is physically active, loves the outdoor and it’s young at heart. He’s driven and motivated in his career. Someone I’m proud to be with.
Laughter is important.
We will be the best of friends, have many things in common and yet be free to have our own independent interests.
I have a busy schedule, but I have plenty of room in my life for a great compassionate man who enjoys his life.
IРІР‚в„ўm emotionally available and I want someone else who is too. I don't mind a little baggage. At our age, it would be weird if we didn't have some, but please donРІР‚в„ўt bring crazy ex-s into the mix. ThatРІР‚в„ўs a huge turn off for me.
I’m not looking for something serious right away, I’m very happy and comfortable being by myself … so I’m going to take my time getting to know you. If we can grow into something more serious, great … if not, it’ll be fun to get to know one another and have great laughs together. =)
