Can ANYONE really bare their chest and tell all here? Well I am going to try, the above questions are not easy for me to answer, because of the fixed responses, am I divorced or single? I feel single, divorce was a long, long time ago! Are my children over 18, if only months separate this goal? Could "Does not want children" be interrupted as I would not accept YOURS? Is smoking a deal breaker, even if I'm quitting? Why isn't quitting an option at this site? Do you know what smoking costs? Should age be narrowed to a birth date? So much more is revealed by a person's spiritual, mental, and physical activity. Is "average" body type a good thing in this age of obesity? Is my graying hair really BROWN if I dye it? Probably the most disturbing to me is the "religion" question...why is OTHER added to Christian? As I grow more mature, some paths are wider, and some paths are more narrow....please read on and I will try to explain more.

I am a bright, petite, attractive, fun loving, affectionate, GOD fearing woman, who lacks a partner. I have been divorced since 1997, not sure marriage is an option anymore, but monogamous is a must! I was born in Columbus, Ohio, but have lived in the Tampa area since 1970, with the exception of one year in GERMANY.

Fidelity, and personal integrity are important values I posses. I am independent, and feel secure with myself, and my world. In spite of this independence, there is a soft, gentle, vulnerable side of me that needs recognition, nurturing and a feeling of security with my man. I miss “couple identity", yet I also have a strong personal identity, and independence, that I choose to keep. I desire to be close with a partner again and yet I don't necessarily need to be constantly “joined at the hip” in order to feel connected. So, please have a fishing, poker, or golf buddy, as I can not be totally responsible for ALL of your entertainment! LOL!

I am a single parent and take that responsibility seriously. I have five adult children, my youngest will be 17 years old in April. I have 10 grandchildren, the oldest is 13 and the youngest is 6 months old.

I like to go to concerts, plays, and sometimes just check out the newspaper to see what is happening in my wonderful community. I enjoy sports, arts, beaches, bike trails, motorcycles, car shows, parks, yard sales, and much more. I am capable of mutual respect. I am caring, giving, and can fix your boo boos, but I'm not your mother. I've had my share of train wrecks, tears, and walks on the wild side. Not looking for a sugar coated Daddy, but sweat equity works for me! (I love a man who has a "I can fix anything" attitude!)

MY Pic's are recent (2009) a cruise to the Bahamas in Sept. and the group pics are at my sister's house in Puerto Rico, March 2009, of course I'm on the left in the back in one pic, and in the rear on the right in the other pic (why am I always in the back?)...do I need to say that I have opened my heart, posted my pic, and would appreciate the same! WARNING to ALL I failed in my pursuit of the "Serious Member" seal, not sure why? And since I'm a nurse, I feel compelled to say: "ROLL OVER, THIS WON'T HURT A BIT".

That's my story and I'm sticking to it! :D

WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR:
this changes over time, and the short answer is: HE is intimate with a look across the room; confident in his own skin; HE is strong enough to make me his weakness; and tender in thoughts and deeds. HE melts my heart, and rushes into the crevices of my mind without even trying. HE loves ME, like Christ loves the church....is this too much to ask? :(
I believe LOVE would take a bullet; not be careless in acts of LOVE.

I WOULD DO ANYTHING FOR LOVE ....BUT I won't do THAT!

Guess you can tell I'm pretty laid back. Maybe a walk in the park?

the real tragedy is when Men are afraid of the LIGHT"
