I am an independent woman and I say what's on my mind (gently). I am a Special Education English teacher at a Queens high school.

I am fortunate to have a son who is married to a lovely woman; they have a little girl, who delights everyone she meets.

I love spending days in NYC, visiting a museum, seeing a play (drama, comedy). I have close friends with whom I like to shmooze, over lunch or coffee. I am seeking an educated, professional man (retired is fine) who is kind to others, maybe a bit off-beat, liberal, articulate, and still curious about the world we inhabit. Are you he?

First meeting is not a date, so let's have coffee, or a drink, and see if there's any chemistry. Then-----we can plan a date.
