*You can find me in the forums*

I am feminine with visible tattoos and facial piercings.
You will find me good-natured and very low key with a cheesy sense of humor and quick to smile. (The other day my friend and I passed a liquor store ’Wine and Spirits’ - I said, “Look Nadine, we can get drunk and see ghosts” I chuckled and she gave me an eye roll but it makes me smile whenever I think of it.)

I am balanced, grounded and easy in my dealings. As an extroverted-introvert I am a contradiction of sorts. On one hand, I am light-hearted and love to laugh - on the other; I am very much a deep thinker. I live my life by a positive code of ethics -striving for peace and harmony. I am a great believer in 'maitri'. (Loving kindness towards oneself)

I have one 13 year old and welcome your children. We are avid animal lovers and have one dog. I love to horse back ride but do not get to go as often as I would like.

I am a non-smoker but have no issues with light smokers, Cigar Aficionado or pipe smokers. I am a light social drinker and enjoy an occasional glass of wine or martini.

My favorite movie genre is drama but enjoy silent films, foreign, classics, suspense… well, most anything other than Sci-Fi and gore.

My musical taste is eclectic. I love old R&B, Soul, 80’s Pop, Classic Rock, and old country: Johnny Cash, Hank Williams, Patsy Cline etc. but my heart lies with Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Michael Buble, Peter Cincotti and the like.

Spending time in nature is important to me. I enjoy leisurely walks, camping, gardening, lying in the hammock etc. I feel most at peace near the ocean and try to visit a few times a year. During the warmer months you may find me at the lake having a picnic, swimming or just relaxing.

You will find me at the gym several days a week doing body pump, yoga and an occasional Pilate’s class.

A few things I would like to experience in the not so distant future are: travel internationally, go on a cruise, hang glide and travel in a hot air balloon.

My spiritual beliefs are a melting pot of: Buddhism, Hinduism, metaphysics and nature based. I maintain spiritual growth through self-reflection and meditation.

It is most unfortunate we are unable to pick several options under the 'I Am Looking For' category, as I am seeking a friend (we should be friends first and foremost), an activity partner (a workout partner would be nice, love to swim, etc.) I enjoy hanging out (love movies), it all begins with an email and talking, eh, dating is great, and hopefully, ultimately, ending as a long-term relationship. I am here having no expectations; however, I am open to whatever path my life takes.

I am most attracted to those who are butch and transgendered -- confident in who they are with a kind heart and courteous nature. Are you comfortable speaking with a CEO of a corporation as well as a homeless person on the street? If so, we may be compatible.

I am drawn to friends who make me laugh and/or stimulate my mind who exhibit intelligence, empathy, sensitivity and compassion, but please no Cantaloupe lovers.

I suppose it all depends upon our mutual interests, location, time for our date etc.
A cup of coffee or a glass of wine sounds great. Afterward, we can play it by ear.
