Date women from United States / California / Walnut, 64 year old

Date a soulmate from California, United States. I am loyal and trustworthy,a good friend. I am basically a quiet person until I get to know you one on one. I like telling jokes but I'm not very good at it. But I appreciate and love a person who can make me laugh. They complement my serious side.
I am still working full time and my job is very intense. I sort of thrive on the intenseness but sometimes it is a lot to take. I like working as a team player, though and seeing big projects completed with great success.
Although I am pretty independent, I would like to have that "special" connection to someone again.
Family is very important to me. I grew up in a very close family with lots of love and connectioin..
Being a hopeless romantic with my kids grown and settling into their own lives and the dynamics of my extended family changing, it is "my time" to venture out, challenge the limits and meet new people.
The truth is that everyone of us has kwirks and foibles of their own that they have to deal with. What is important is to respect each other, to encourage each other to strengthen where there are weaknesses without compromising your own strong traits. That way both parties are happy. Are you ready for this too?
The someone I am looking for will have some mutual interests and passions but also be diverse enough that they have their own separate interests to pursue. For instance, I am not into exercise and outdoor sports but still wouldn't mind a partner who is. I want that special someone to connect with.
I am old-fashioned enough to want the man to make the first move.
The pictures I have are of my me, my sons, my daughter-in-law and my cat. I really like dogs but feel I am not home enough to give a dog the attention and care it would need.
I was born in Long Beach, grew up in Westiminster and, even though economy etc. is worse now than ever, I can't picture myself moving out of California.

ThatРІР‚в„ўs what my friends might call me. I enjoy entertaining in my home. My parents were in the restaurant business, so I would say hospitality is one of my gifts, I love making people feel welcome and special. I have also enjoy giving tea parties and at church, IРІР‚в„ўm usually the go-to person to decorate for special events. IРІР‚в„ўm an Evangelical Christian and very active in my church and a variety of ministries. I believe life should be about loving and serving Him. I am looking for the special person to share the love of Christ. Other ways people would describe me are loyal, honest and I have a high sense of morals and integrity. IРІР‚в„ўm also a natural leader, although I like to complete tasks behind the scenes.
I enjoy easy bike rides, kayaking, and hikes. I am not into winning a marathon - just enjoying the moment. On weekends, I try to take my dogs on a hike or event to get exercise. I have been part of music teams on a variety of ministries. Music is an important part of my life. I love all arts and culture, as well as trying new adventures.
The perfect match for me would have to be a Christian that loves the Lord and wants to put the Lord first in their lives. You are honest, have a high sense of integrity, loyal and faithful. To me, what is most important is what is in your heart. Compassion, a sense of happiness about life, and good family values are all important to me. You are self-confident, stable in your life and donРІР‚в„ўt need someone to complete you, but would like a friend and maybe more to compliment your life and activities. You are somewhat active, loving to get out and about, finding new adventures or maybe just going for a walk. I find creative, artistic men very attractive! Oh, and you must love dogs and cats! If youРІР‚в„ўre up for a new adventure and would like to start by having a cup of coffee and some conversation, email me.
