I am a true southern girl - lived in Tennessee all of my life except the past 3 years - a true southern belle! I love having fun and truly appreciate the finer things in life as well as the simple things.

I am lookng for someone that will share my zest for life and become a true friend and confident. I love to have fun and am very outgoing so I am not lookng for someone that is intimidated by that. On the flip side I am very accepting and patient.

I am extremely passionate about my children even though they are basically grown and on their own. I am not interested in anyone who does not set family as a priortiy.

Water is somehting that I love - boating, skiing, swimming, lying or sitting by it. I love the lake, ocean, river - if it has to do with water I am there. I had a boat until I moved here to Cleveland and miss it desperately. Traveling is important. Just tell me where we are going and my bags are packed!

I want my partner to be someone who is kind, outgoing, has the ability to show affection and has good communication skills. But most of all, I want him to be someone who likes to have fun!!!! I am looking for someone who likes to get a little crazy and can "go with the flow".

And past all of this - I do have an intellectual side!

After being on here a few months I have to now add this - which goes against all of my "southern" being as I try to be nice to every one - if I don't email you back don't start with the hate mail. It's not attractive at our age and there is no contract that says I have to respond to everyone. Also, if we communicate and maybe even meet one time - that does not mean we are in a realtionship. If we both come away with a new friend, then isn't that a positive thing. I am NOT a player but I am not rushing to jump into anything that is not completely right for both parties. Don't make this complicated!

Meet for a glass of wine/drink maybe appetizers to see if there is a connection!
