It's pretty simple and uncomplicated with me. I am a woman who loves to love a good, honest, self-sufficient, caring and kind man with a sense of humor (P.S. chemistry is a definite). I would like to think of myself of a more giving person than receiving, but it's wonderful when partners can "pick up" on when the others' need warrants the special attention. I don't want to see pics of you; they have never worked thus far, so suffice it to say, let's go with honesty and the "present". I am open to any adventure providing it's not risk taking. I enjoy the art of dance but do not expect it in return with a partner providing you will let me have fun with it when we are enjoying an evening at home listening to good tunes (of any kind); I express myself thru dance and find it not only calming for the mind, but toning for my 55 year young, 120LB person :) My outside activites include anything where there is water if the activity is in the sun. It's been a while since I water skied, but I can show you a good "hand-stand" if the water is not too deep :) Otherwise, a night walk or playing on the beach works for me (with a nice glass of Chardonay if we don't find ourselves playing too rough, that said, a walk would allow me to enjoy the fruits of that vine :) I enjoy board games; i.e., scrabble, and can hold my own with cards (course, you might have to refresh my memory on the rules of certain games). I love a good group of friends gathering at a night beach affair where grilling is in order. Or, I welcome good friends in my home to enjoy same; I have always loved entertaining. Of course, with the economy, a good mate and good friends can make it all come together without much financial hardship on anyone :) You'll find me to be a very sociable person in any situation, but would never put my social outgoingness before the man I am with; he would be my number one and as long as I am with "that" special man, HE would be the subject of my attention and affection, always. P.S. I so miss sharing those "cuddles" under a summer blanket on the couch, watching a movie after the two of us had just enjoyed a home-cooked meal we both made, OR, one that I made while my mate was busy with other endeavors. My point...I love to love and be loved with the simple things in life. It takes time to learn about a potential mate, I am willing to do that. But, not too long, OK?

Hmmmmmmmmm, a first date. Well that really depends on our commonalities. If my date were a coffee drinking man, I would say, coffee and a sandwich at a local cozy place. And I know of one I just discovered in Cape Coral, perfect for that setting. If my date were a beer or whatever person, I would say, OK, lets go to the SAME cozy place as mentioned above (it's quite eclectic and perfect for a meeting and they also have a small bar). If my date did neither, I would say, well....then we'll meet someplace they provide good "city water". Hmmmmmmmm, I drink water a LOT, coffee, only in the morning, but a good fruit of the vine on the first date would make me a little more at ease; that said, I would prefer this little cozy eclectic place to meet not just for a glass of water :)
