Date someone special from San Diego, United States. I retired recently and just finished traveling for the last 2 years (US, Europe, South America). Now I am ready to settle in somewhere.
I am happy, well-balanced, confident, and playful. 5’6”, 115 lbs.
I'd love to meet a man who shares at least some of these traits with me: attractive, bright, emotionally available, fun, affectionate, good sense of humor, giving, energetic, and willing to do a wide variety of activities. I do best with positive upbeat types who like to laugh.
Some of the things I enjoy doing are the following:
Dining out, movies, plays, dancing, musical events, outdoor festivals, traveling, and various forms of outdoor exercise (i.e. bicycling, swimming, walking, kayaking). Other interests include photography, architecture, museums, book stores, and boating. I love to dance (ballroom, country western, tango, salsa, etc), but it is not a requirement that my partner dance.
I am excited about life. I have traveled throughout much of the world.
I have had several different careers.
I have a Ph.D. in psychology.
I read best sellers, fiction and non-fiction. I like almost every movie that is any good at all. My all-time favorite is Galaxy Quest. I enjoy a huge range of music (there are some exceptions, like rap). I like most food (but tend to only eat healthy food). Darn! That sadly eliminates most food.
My family. I have 3 fabulously amazing grown children (of course I am totally unbiased).
What I think about: social issues and how I can make things better in my life and in the world, history, science, the people in my life, and finding a wonderful man to share my life with.
Contact me if you are looking for a bright, attractive, outgoing woman, and are at least somewhat like me.
I am looking for someone fit and active. I like to hike, bike, travel, etc. and want a partner who can do these things with me.
The photos are current (all within the last 2 years). I seem to be aging very slowly.
Meet a soulmate from San Diego, United States. I am originally from Philadelphia, PA and moved to Hawaii when I was 25. I now live in San Diego, CA where I work as a Senior Executive Assistant for a large Dental Clinic. I have two wonderful children who are both in their 20s and are out of the house. I am a widow of 13 years and an empty nester. Since I devoted those single years to my children, there was little time left to date. Now, it's my turn! I exercise every day (gym, weights, treadmill, etc) and participate in as many 5Ks around the county as I can. I am still working and enjoy my job immensely. I love to travel back to Hawaii whenever I can and am hoping to go to Europe within the next few years. I'm a techie at heart - but only know enough to make me dangerous. I am a very sensual woman!
I am looking for an honest, caring, sensitive and loving man who has a good sense of humor and loves to laugh, and has a thirst for life. He should be a good listener and be willing to try new things. Life is short - let's get together! and explore new things. I love to go to the movies, dinner or just enjoy the sunset with a nice glass of wine!
Date a woman from San Diego, United States. I am a simple romantic, where the life of a nomad resides irreverently and with timeless vitality somewhere deep within the recesses of my heart. I have trekked in Nepal; photographed elephants in Kenya; flown in a helicopter over the Great Wall of China; sailed up the Nile and snorkeled in crocodile waters off the northern coast of Queensland, Australia.
I value simple pleasures: the New York Times with a great cup of coffee; stimulating conversations; English gardens; solitary time; running with the wind; attending opera in New York City; exploring the Natural History museum and for reading and writing (a budding playwright in progress (or so she thinks (little smile))).
I seek and desire companionship with someone who loves the outdoors for walking, hiking and for swimming in moonlight. The realm of my kingdom is the universe and I seek the companionship from someone who is not strangled by the mundane and pedestrian aspects of life, but who has embraced their free spirit to discover the bliss of life. In plain talk: I seek to discover your specialness through a sequel of conversations manifesting eventually into an amazingly brilliant friendship with a man of high integrity and of solid character. A man possessed with a spirit of enthusiasm and with a genuine kindness of heart. I am a solitary person by nature; however, I am quite loquacious when challenged by my curiosity. I am not possessive, but respectful of your need to live a life as fully and consciously in the moment. "You're better than you know ~ don't settle for the little dream." I seek a joyful spirit to complement my own.
Aside: My photographs represent a juxtaposition of scenarios: Greece/50th birthday; elephants photographed on safari; a budding young woman and finally, the remaining collage of photographs taken over these past five years. Alas, "Twinkle", my Scottish Terrier!

Date a soulmate from California, United States. I’m a vibrant and active woman who enjoys going out and getting the most out of life. I look and act much younger than my age. I don’t judge a man by his age…all I ask is that he loves being active and has the energy to keep up with me.
IРІР‚в„ўd like to find a man who shares some of my interests, but can introduce me to new activities to love, too. It would be really great if you like tennis as much as I do and can give me a run for my money. It seems like IРІР‚в„ўm out of the house doing something every day and would love to have a fun-loving partner by my side.
I donРІР‚в„ўt have a particular physical type that I go for in a man. My major requirements are that my match not smoke, not be an alcoholic and not be a couch potato. ThatРІР‚в„ўs not too much to ask is it? On the positive side of things, I like a smart and funny man who can make me laugh and carry on an intelligent conversation. IРІР‚в„ўve got a great circle of friends and want someone who is comfortable and outgoing in social settings.
IРІР‚в„ўm a very kind, caring and loving person and want those same qualities in my match. If you have a good heart and are ready to share a great life together, then letРІР‚в„ўs talk!

Please, no players. Looking for an open, honest, caring, fun... well, you get the picture, same thing everyone is looking for in a partner. Walks on the beach, movies, theatre, driving up the coast... yep, same thing everyone writes, so are you the one that likes to drive or be driven and enjoy the view?
What about the cars??? Well, I noticed that most men have pictures of cars in thier profile, so, I thought I'd add a few. See any you like? Me too!! In case you're wondering, I don't own a Porche or sailboat - but I'm still nice.
Pictures and words do not tell the story, what you say and do mean more.

Date a woman from United States. I am an attractive, fun loving lady who always has a big smile for everyone.
Things I enjoy are swimming, bike riding and working out at the gym.
I try to live a healthy lifestyle. I was a fitness trainer at one time..
I would like to fall in love with a gentleman who enjoys international travel and exploring interesting places.. I want a gentleman who is confident in himself, who I would love so much and be proud of.
The man I would love should be kind, generous of heart, thoughtful, trusting and affectionate..
Someone who can make me laugh and views the lighter side of life is very important..
I love a man who has great conversation and is open to discussing differents topics.
I would hope he would love and respect all God's creatures like I do.
It is hard to put my life in so few words...
Life is such a Grand Adventure..I am hoping to find a man I can love always and share the good times and bad with.
. Ok, It's time to jump back into the search for my "Mr. Right". Although I am happy with my life as it is, I believe that a partner and special friend would be an added blessing.
I believe in positive thoughts and positive energy. And along that line, I believe that Thoughts become things and I try to choose the good ones.
Family and friends are very important to me as well as service to others. Nothing makes me happier than to be able to help someone else. To help people and bring joy to their lives really makes me feel good. To find Mr Right and have us able to add value to each other's lives would really be awesome.
With the right person, I believe that the colors of the rainbow would be much brighter to behold. The special dinner would taste better. The movie would be more entertaining. And life in general would take on that special glow.
If you are looking for a lady who is slightly old fashioned and definitely a lady, then maybe I am your "Ms Right".
. OK, I'm ready! No more work! No more worries about time or money. Now an even number sounds even better than an odd. I'm ready to share good times, good people and the richness of life with the right man. Through joy and sadness I've been independently self-sufficient for a long time and although I will hopefully always be able to take good care of myself, I wouldn't mind a little help here and there from someone who makes it all even better just by being himself and being present. I'd love to find someone with whom traveling would be more exciting, exploration more adventurous and staying home more comfortable and serene. After many years of rewarding work with troubled kids, I am fortunate to feel fulfilled. My life has been purposeful and rich, filled with outstanding people and rare, inspiring experiences. My students have gifted me the feeling that despite not having any children of my own, I will leave this beautiful mixed-up world a better place (many many happy healthy years from now, alavai).
. Please read what I have written before you contact me, and please do not send a wink.
The most attractive traits I find in a man are that he is healthy, confident, consistent, compassionate and experienced, with a wonderful sense of humor and a high sense of self-esteem. I believe that integrity, kindness and respect speak volumes about the depth of character of a person, whether man or woman. Good manners and courtesy are very sexy attributes, in my opinion, as are intelligence, curiosity about the world, and a romantic spirit. I admire a man who knows how to treat his lady in public and in private. He loves dogs, values kindness, and understands the art of balancing strength and gentleness. He is professionally successful, financially secure, a good listener and a wonderful communicator.
Although I place the most importance on a man's inner qualities, we are all visual beings, and I believe that the chemistry between a man and a woman is derived from a varied and interesting combination of all the senses. All of my photos were taken within the past two years, some as recently as November 2010. I feel that it is fair that you also have current photos posted. I am thoughtful of the needs of others but also take very good care of myself. My positive outlook and sense of values have seen me through great adversity, and I have also experienced a lot of joy in my life. I love being a feminine woman, keep myself in great shape at 5'5", and a healthy size 6, and I was genetically fortunate to inherit my Dad's blue eyes and my Mom's legs.
I enjoy live performance theatre, musical concerts of many genres, travel to other cultures, and any form of people-watching. I love to read, both fiction and non-fiction, and always have a book in progress on the bedside table, which I prefer over most TV, unless itРІР‚в„ўs a fascinating documentary, a Padres or Chargers game, or a really good movie. I am a lifelong animal lover, and consider that living with a dog is necessary for optimum emotional health. My work has always been important to me, and I am self-employed. Along with interesting locations in the U.S. and Mexico, I have been fortunate to have some fascinating jobs and great mentors in my life, providing valuable opportunities for intellectual, spiritual and personal growth.
I love to laugh, but I'm serious about meeting the wonderful man with whom I will share the rest of my life. I have a full, happy and busy life, and am definitely not just looking for a date. I have spent time, thought and honesty in writing my Profile information, and I really appreciate reading Profiles by men who have done the same.
At the beginning of my Profile description, I asked that you read what I have written before contacting me. That is because I will not respond to you if you send me a wink, which will indicate to me that you have just looked at my photos, but have not actually taken the time to read my Profile information. If you are interested in hearing from me, please be thoughtful, and take the time to say a few words about yourself when you contact me.
If you've read to this point, I appreciate your interest, and hope that you discover someone very special who will add great happiness to your life.
