I'm the girl who grew up in Brooklyn, spent 16 summers in the Catskills, at a bungalow colony, catching fireflies, making daisy chains,Queen Anne's Lace in my hair, hiking to Black Hole to jump into a mountain stream; shrieks echoing off the rocks as the icy water surprised me , lying on the dewy nighttime grass with Queen Anne's Lace decorating my hair, watching bats skimming overhead;hearing mosquitos buzzing warnings at my ear, pressing jukebox buttons at night;learning to slow dance to Stand by Me; I'm the girl who cried at the unexpectedly powerful gift of a love poem at 16; the girl who married her first love and stayed for 30 years until we realized how far apart we'd grown. I'm the girl who laughs 'til tears run down her cheeks, has a ticklish, vivid imagination and penchant for edgy, double entendre, an appreciation for quick wit and lively banter. I'm the girl who feels music down to her toes, who feels the beat in her heart, who can be moved to tears by a song's lyrics, a melodic voice, by the sound of a well-played piano, guitar or saxophone. I'm the girl who is able to offer love and wants to be loved in return, to feel treasured and cherished; to know, without any doubt, that you are so glad that we are in each other's lives. I'm the girl who loves small gifts of the heart; loving and tender words spoken and written, showing that we have remembered what is meaningful and important. I'm the girl who doesn't need cliches, flowers ordered online, obligatory cards for predictable occasions, rather I'm the girl who would love a note on any random day just because. I am the girl who raised two wonderful girls of my own to become young women; who have begun their adult lives having learned some important life lessons and hopefully to reach their full potential in the world.I'm the girl who tends to read between lines, who has a creative, artistic, musical,(play piano, have a diverse collection of music) passionate and poetic nature - juxtaposed against a practical, responsible, ethical, self-motivated person of tremendous character and integrity.And because I have integrity you are okay knowing that I am 57 and my pictures are DEAD ON ACCURATE AND CURRENT. I'm the girl who knows that she wants more than a weekend relationship for the rest of time .
I've learned that it's okay to be alone if you are happy with yourself. I've learned that despite promises to ourselves that we won't repeat mistakes made in the past, we have a tendency to perpetuate old behaviors. I've learned that some things cannot be compromised and that it becomes harder to merge two lives as we get older and bring more to the table; but the possibility of Big Love is out there, just around the corner. And, I've learned, if you find a really funny guy, you should be wearing Depends.
Okay. Here’s the thing. I’m NOT here to entertain myself with emails and flirts because I like hearing that little voice say “YOU’VE GOT MAIL.” I am NOT lacking in the ability to find dates. It is not dates I am looking for. It is not a dinner companion nor an activity buddy I seek. I’m not here to play games for 6 months and tease you because I’m trying to make a boyfriend jealous, nor am I here to create a pseudo-relationship with you that is virtual and not of the real world. I am real and I am ready to begin something wonderfully extraordinary. I am looking for the guy in the pictures that caught my eye; not the guy who USED to be the guy in the picture. I’m looking for the guy who really is at least 5’11, WITHOUT SHRINKAGE ? I AM 5’8”. I wear heels and dresses/skirts and love that you are taller than I am when I do. That’s a must for me. You don’t need to have Grecian Formula on your hair, you don’t even need to have hair; but you do need to have a very quick wit, a fondness for animals, a passion and open-mindedness for music, a romantic spirit that is not defined by cliché, a playful yet responsible manner, a very warm, loving heart, a boyish charm and the desire to move forward and find out sooner rather than later if we have that elusive chemistry that might cause spontaneous combustion. Come here and talk to me.
First Date
Something low-key, casual, a place with easily accessible exits and hopefully would not result in my needing to join the Witness Protection Program
