Seriously, I'm looking for a kind-hearted woman with whom to grow happily old. I'm 61 but look and feel significantly younger. A good life consists of family, friends, doing what is right, and great experiences and memories. Travel is my most passionate hobby; most often in relation to scuba diving in the Carribean or Hawaii but my soul-mate need not be or want to be a diver. I love to golf but it rarely likes me! I am a chemist at a Columbus specialty chemicals plant. I've been with the same company for 37 years and like my work. I've also recently retired as a suburban Columbus reserve police officer. It was my way of giving back to the community and my fellow officers but 25 years of rigorous (at times) giving grew to be enough and I retired honorably a couple of years ago. As a newer substitute I've applied to be a volunteer at a local hospital. I have two terrific daughters I can't seem to see enough of since they live 2-3 hours away. I'm honest to a fault, kind, loving, optimistic, live by the Golden Rule, and would love to share love and new experiences with a wonderful woman. I hope that wonderful woman is you.

Maybe just lunch and/or drinks at first. If that works out then dinner at Hyde Park Grill or Columbus Fish Market and a movie.
