Hello, and thank you for taking the time to read my profile! I have lived a very interesting life so far, and cannot wait to find the right person for me so that I may spend the next half of my life sharing all that I've learned and experienced with that special person :) I am a fairly conservative girl raised in the midwest by an amazing mother. Although my father passed when I was very young, I knew him well through the stories my mother has shared and if I can find half the love my mother had with my father, I would truly be one lucky woman! I have come close to real and lasting love, but, in the end, those relationships were simply not meant to be. I have carried some pain, but like with all heartbreaks, we live through them, pick ourselves up and move on with a better apprecitation for what we are looking for.I believe the man I'm meant to share my life with is out there and God has prepared me every step of the way to meet him and to be truly ready for the love of my life. I have many interests but know that we all evolve and make adjustments in life with and for those we love. To list them all would be hard, but a few are: shopping, dining out, movies, theatre, dancing, cooking in, working out and long political talks with those who can agree to disagree. I am a very loyal woman with strong morals and expect the person I am with will reflect the same. I love all kinds of music, but Sinatra is king. I am not looking for perfection just someone who is perfect for me. Thanks again for your time, and good luck in your search!

I love a nice dinner and/or a great walk along the beach with conversation that will help us get to know one another..I also love to just let the date or meeting just take us where it might...those are the best first dates...not fully planned ;)
