HelloI think we're all here looking for the same thing. We're looking for that special smile, or those eyes that see into your soul and make you feel so darn good. We all want the fire and passion of our youth. We feel capable of that soulful passionate love and want to feel that giddiness when our mate walks in the room. We all look back to that "one" love of our life. That love that changed us, the one we will never forget. The one we felt we couldn't live withoutuntil we couldn't live with them anymore. The love remains never to leave our hearts or our memories. And that's okay, we all have pasts. We also all have futures and we need to start without any preconceived notions about who we are looking for. We need to give one another a chance here. We are all here to find a mate. None are perfect and we have to get past the photographs and read what the other is saying. So if your bald or alittle overweight or dress funny or not the right color. We have to find love where we find it and get past the obvious and look into the one who whet your interests in them. Love should be blind, we'd pick better mates. Good luck finding who you are looking for, wish me luck too. Lauren

On a first date I would like to have coffee and just see if we connect. I am not looking for a studmuffin or someone who can't pass a mirror without looking at himself. I am looking for a man who doesn't drink in excess, is single . Not married!! I'm not into hurting another female. Not into games. I believe love should be mutually respectful and trustful. Communication a must. I love the sound of running water as in a babbling brook or the waves crashing into the sea, or waterfalls. I love the warmth of the sun on my face and the sounds of birds chirping at the break of dawn and the crickets croak in the night. I love to sit and read on a rainy day or chase down the lightening in a thunderstorm. My theme is serendipity. I find the weather channel interesting and am still amazed at watching the storm clouds form. I still look up towards the sky in amazement when I hear a jetplane go over. I'm still mesmerized by campfires and the thrill of wetting a line. I so want to feel that spark again and meet someone who wants to stay for the rest of our lives.
