Yes, I match the photo...while the hairsytles might change, the person inside does not! Truly a real lady, somewhat traditional, wants to meet someone that appreciates a candlelit atmosphere, great conversation, soul touching and those wonderful tingles...and yes, reality is that we all lead busy lives and can only dream of finding that one special person that we believe we can spend a majority of our time with. (better yet if it turns out to be something more)

What's important for me in a partner is someone that is respectful, has high self-esteem, is financially secure and someone who has character (sense of humor), wit and is a good conversationalist. Would also like non-smoker and minimal drinker. I have high standards, am sensible, and desire the same of you. Are you someone who hasn't given up on romance? I come with no baggage (yes, we all have a past) and would want the same of you.

There's always something you can find to do....from simple chores to those 'just because' getaways. Do you play cribbage? Not many do.....lol! I am open to new (your) ideas. I take care of myself and have recently focused on the Wii Fit/Nintendo for my exercise! And yes I still like to take walks, clean the house, and any other activity than to just sit on the couch!! I like trying new restaurants, movies, or ?? I watch very little TV - although HGTV and CNN are top channels. Just because I don't drink alcohol doesn't mean I won't go to a bar, but I'm just not into the late night/hang out at the bar scene any more.

Here is how to win me over - just be yourself and the rest should all work if the chemistry is right.

Something very informal - keep it public and keep it simple!
