I work evenings so meeting people is difficult, so I'm trying this out. I am retire military, divorced twice, two daughters, one grand-daughter, a grandson on the way, and one dog. I don't do the bars, I out grew that many years ago. I don't smoke any more, it does not bother me if you do. I like spur of the moment weekend get-a-ways, bbqing, quiet times, casinos, Vegas or Tunica. Turn on some soft music and slow dance in the kitchen, sometimes I have to crank up the volume with classic/southern rock. This is just a little about me, I hope I have tweaked your curiousity about me. I honestly dislike writing this because it is like I'm saying "Pick me,pick me!" Thank you for taking the time to read this and I hope everyone finds who they are seaching for.

Sometimes we need to stop analyzing the past- stop planning the future- stop trying to figure out how we feel- and stop deciding with our minds what our hearts need to feel- Sometimes we just have to go with... "Whatever happens-happens."

PS.. "Not looking for an Intimate Encounter". Let's be honest. Isn't that what we all really want from dating. I'm not talking about the Hi, How are you, jump in bed. When the time is right, the slow, passionate, exploration of each other. That is the "I. E." I'm looking for.

First meeting should be for coffee/tea, in a quiet small place. That way we can hear what the other has to say. Then WE could decide what, if anything, we want to do next.
