I would love for someone to seek the person inside and discover the real me, love the outdoors, like to try new things, open, upfront, very honest, truthful & always looking on the bright side in a dark room. Don't want any gameplaying. If you just want to be friends then say so, just be honest please. Am not the kind to be with a married man & have an affair as I have had that happen to me and it's not nice, just hurts. I would take pleasure in an in person physical meeting with someone and not just chat through the computer instant messaging or phone. Also, if things turn serious then I would stay in a one with one relationship and embrace that future. Not the type to rush anything, not hard up or in a hurry (kinda picky preferences with whom I desire to date now that I'm older). I like an old fashion relationship, slow & steady to make sure we would be on the same trail on the road of life. Looking for someone: open, kind, trustworthy, honest, fun, can make me smile & laugh, can give respect, communicates & enjoys nature as much as I do. I get pleasure in spoiling as well as to be spoiled in more ways than one & not necessarily financially. Preferably a non-smoker and no drugs either. Someone I can treat the same way as they treat me. Would eventually like the benefit of a long term one with one commitment, not just date. If things were to get serious I would accept someone with their own children (even a part-time parent) and love to be included in activities with them but can't have anymore myself. My children are young adults & live on their own. I'm a strong woman but not overbearing. Confident in myself & know what I do & don't want. Nature & animal lover. Enjoy a varity of activities especilally outdoors. Not much for exercise machines but would rather go for a nice walk in a park or on a hike where there are sites to see & a destination to travel. Funloving, caring, cheerful, giving, outgoing, like to try new things. Get pleasure from all types of music, movies & going out enjoying public activities as well as staying in and appreciate each other's company close & private . In addition to working I also run a non-profit rescue kennel for husky dogs & husky mixes. I have twelve dogs right now & adopted out 7 during the past two years. If I ever think of moving again it would need to be where there is snow so I can run the dogs on dogsled. If you've never tried it it is great fun & a good workout! I also own five cats. Can you tell I'm a huge animal lover? If you have read all this & I haven't scared you off & you are interested in any way then write a few lines in an e-mail & I will respond. If I contact you first then please let me know if you are interested or not, because if you're not or have found someone else already then I know to leave things alone. I have contacted several first & they just ignore any contact & I feel that is just plain rude. Just because this is a website & contacting through a computer doesn't mean one should be rude. As I mentioned, I treat one as I wish to be treated, & vice-versa: I'll treat one as they treat me. Otherwise thanks for looking & good luck in your search of whatever or whoever it is you are looking for.
