Blue-eyed blonde with a big smile - fun, out going, caring, compassionate, intelligent, confident, adventurous, into sports/physical activity, good cook, financially comfortable, desire for passion, love, & devotion in a long term relationship. Love sports: softball, baseball, golf, tennis, skiing (water & snow), sailing, wakeboarding, deep sea fishing, volleyball, working out, biking, hiking, football-OK to watch but I'd much rather be participating than watching. Love to cook or go out to dinner - enjoy gourmet food & bottle of wine. Quiet evening snuggling on the couch in front of a roaring fire, sensually kissing is a fantastic way to spend time together too. Enjoy cultural events - theater, art, museums, history, travel. Can be spontaneous, wild, & crazy or elegant, sophisticated & reserved. I consider myself multi-faceted, enjoying the exploration & experiences of both my feminine & masculine sides...running the gamut from tom-boy activities to black-tie affairs. Open, honest communication is essential. Time with family is very important to me, especially as it seems to become less as the years speed by. My kittens never cease to amaze me with their unconditional love & playful antics. I love children and wish I had some of my own and was instrumental in the care & development of a former boyfriend's daughter from the time she was 7 months until 5 years old; am so proud of her, now 27 and a practicing lawyer.

Looking for: man who is kind & sensitive to my needs & others; intelligent with integrity; articulate; comfortable in business casual, tux, or jeans; enjoys all sorts of sporting activities, competitive but not a "macho man/sore loser" should I or someone else defeat him at a game; sense of humor, can make me laugh but can manage the difficult, serious times too; passionate & romantic enjoying long walks along the beach, hand-in-hand, watching the sun rise & seeing it set while enjoying great bottle of wine & talking of our past, present, & future dreams and ambitions; stimulates / motives himself & me to be the best in all endeavors, supportive when goals fall short or failures occur; physically strong man with a heart of gold who is understanding but straight with you. See the passion in his eyes to know the devotion in his heart.

Players need not apply...well, let me rephrase..."players" please do apply if a sports/activity partner player, but NOT the "player" who is manipulative with no regard for how their actions affect one's heart, head, and emotions. This "candy-store" method of dating can be daunting/overwhelming and I apologize if I do not reply to all inquiries. Please don't think that I'm arrogant, self-absorbed, or all that popular - quite the contrary, and I do appreciate your time and effort in contacting me but I also do not believe in wasting your time - I consider that to be respectful and a sign of integrity. I've been "accused" of being too picky by my "competition" but I don't need to date for the sake of dating...I just want to find "the one" who is best suited to me and me to him. I'm looking for "one-n-done," not "one-n-run!" English is our national language and I try my best to be grammatically correct in my speech and written word so if you end your sentences with a preposition, i.e. “AT”, then I am not the girl for you and please pass by me.

Best wishes to all in your pursuit for the one who will enhance and enrich your life and you theirs. PLEASE PROVIDE PICS!!!

Casual date over coffee or happy hour drink to get to know one another.
