I am comfortable in almost any social situation and make new connections with genuine people instantly. I love to engage in meaningful conversations with informed people who are passionate about their beliefs whether I agree with them or not.I hope you feel the same. I love dogs and have had everything from a German Shepard (growing up), to Black Labs, to a 7 pound Poodle/Maltese/Pomeranian mix. Cats are a ton of fun too. I love music and am trying to teach myself how to play the guitar. I just need a muse to motivate me ;-) I love to laugh with other's and don't mind making fun of myself from time-to-time. Any of my friends will tell you i have a terrific sense of humor. I have a great relationship with my Son (18 year old )excellent students and accomplished lacrosse players. I am secure enough in who I am to be an open book. Ask me anything. I am a good listener and try to live by the principles in human relations I learned many years ago by reading books by Dale Carnegie. Timeless stuff! As you might have guessed by looking at my photos, I love the outdoors. Skiing, hiking, etc. What am I looking for? I would like to find someone to enjoy the rest of my life with. Although physical attraction and chemistry are important, I am a seeking an intelligent lady whom I can connect with on many levels. Intimacy is impossible without good communication. Right? Ideally I would like my partner to enjoy the same activities I engage in. A sense of humor and the ability to no take yourself too seriously is a must.
