UPDATE: I JUST MOVED FROM CA TO PA TO BE WITH THE MAN I MET ON POF....and it didn't work out, so now I'm in a strange town, starting all over again...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
NOTE: I would like to make some friends, so if you'd like to just chat for a bit, don't be afraid to email and let those feelings be known. Thanks to POF and the internet, I've now got friends all over the US and Canada, and even got to meet a few, and hopefully will meet more!
I'd REALLY like to meet some ladies who live in the area so I'd have someone to 'hang out with once in awhile...ya know, go to festivals/craft shows with, go out to eat...that kinda thing...I know this is a dating site and of course, I'm looking to have a relationship with a MAN, but we can all use a few friends to just 'hang out', ya know?~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I believe in love, God, listening to the stories of old folk, (of course that is anyone 20 years older than me, no matter how old I get!), the possibility of re-incarnation, romance, never ending friendship, equality (to a point).....
I don't believe in racism, murder, hatred, dishonesty in any form, cheaters, thieves.
I believe in the wonder of babies, the innocence of children, that every child has the right to have a happy childhood,(I did foster parenting for a few years to help with this).....
I don't believe that 'mean/evil' people were born that way-I think they had something sad in their past that they never overcame.
I believe that while there are two opposing views of the war, and neither is entirely right or wrong.....
I don't believe any of us want to see so many men/women lose their lives this way.
I believe that
"Freedom isn't Free" .....(my late husband was one of many who paid for it with his life).
I believe that actions speak louder than words and what you DO when you are with me,(alone OR with others), far OUTWEIGHS anything that you may have said.
I'm tired of doing everything alone, but I still would rather be alone, than to be in a bad relationship.
I believe that life is not a party, but while we're here, we might as well dance!

I think I need to update my profile, as I don't think it tells enough about me. I was born with a hearing loss. I'm now totally deaf in one ear, due to getting a Cochlear implant a year ago, which so far, hasn't been too successful, and I'm still trying to 'learn to recognize' words. I hear okay one-on-one with the help of lip reading, but I don't do well in groups.
Also, I'm very family-oriented, and right now am helping my daughter through some rough times, so if you never had kids, and it's because you never liked/wanted kids, then I'm probably not the woman for you. Of course, if you have grandkids that you adore, (or even kids), than it's a PLUS.
I did the long distance move....doubt that I would chance that again...unless (maybe), if it was FL (where my mom lives), or Ohio, (where my long time friends are).
Although I don't smoke...it wouldn't bother me if you do. I've been around smokers all my life and the second hand smoke hasn't killed me yet.
I don't care what kind of house/apartment you have, what kind of car you drive...what's important is that you treat me the way I would treat you....
If you are a lover of the 'Blue Comedy Tour Group', there is no doubt that we could share some laughs. Man, I could watch those shows over and over and STLL laugh till tears roll down my cheeks at a few of them. (Of course, this CRS syndrome makes each time I hear the joke seem like the first..Bwahahahahaha!)
I'm looking for my 'last relationship'...hopefully in our old age, you will still get that 'glimmer in your eye' when we look at each other from across the room.....
To message me, the settings are to allow more people to contact me, if they have a comment on something I may have said in the forums. For actual dating purposes, I prefer a man to be close to my age....maybe give or take 5-7 years. I LOVE mature men....there is something I find very sexy about them....
I would like to get to know you by email first....so we know a bit about each other before meeting. I believe in 'quality over quantity', so I would rather just meet someone with similiar interests at somewhere like Starbucks, where we can have some small talk and see if we want to get together again.
