...build trust! Trust is a big factor and is earned, not just a given. Communication is expected since I did not take a course of "ESP" in High School/College! And...everything in life is worth a try/risk!

I am a woman who knows, at this age, who and what I am, and that isn't meant to sound intimidating. I am honest, truthful, considerate, and respectful. I love laughing, have a great sense of humor, and enjoy sharing that joy with others. Laughter is the key to life, and if a man can get me laughing, he's on the right track! I have many friends, and love meeting new people. I am an outgoing, positive type person who gives from her heart, and wants to share that happiness with a special man. I see life as "half-full", not "half-empty". In return, I expect the same from the man who could capture my heart. I would like to meet someone who has some similar traits as I do, making it very easy and comfortable to be with, sharing and exploring some things in life together, and having fun. However, it is said that "opposites attract", so alike vs. not alike has it's intrigue as well! Romance, tenderness, honesty, respect, being a gentleman, a sense of humor, politeness, and affection are main attributes I admire in a man. I am no "Barbie", even though I'm blonde, but I have a brain! What I have to give comes from "inside" and who I am comes from the life experiences I have gone through to get where I am. I am what they call a "hopeful romantic" and want that special feeling in my heart. Compatability and chemistry can only make our relationship more fun and exciting. If you don't want to meet to see if we have anything in common, I would appreciate at least a response if I email you first. I don't wear my feelings on my sleeve, but replying is simply being courteous. We are all on here to meet people and perhaps even our "special" someone!

I am a longtime football fan of our OSU Buckeyes since I was a young child going to the "Shoe", and recently am finding interest in Professional football teams(although College football is still my favorite). I enjoy visiting wineries as well as drinking different types of wines. I love being around boats, learning about and visiting lighthouses, and being by the water, whether it be rivers, lakes, or the ocean! My music likes are wide-ranged: Christian, Rock and Roll, Country, New Age, Contemporary...I have done some karaoke, my favorite female singer is Celine Dion, and males are Josh Groban and Collin Raye. Favorite types of movies are comedies, musicals, and family type movies(or "chick-flicks" as some call them). I love to cook, wanting to some day cook for or with my special man. Poetry involves not only reading, but writing as well. The rest of my listed interests are lengthy, so if any of this intrigues or interests you, please inquire. No smokers, please, as my sinuses and smoke don't agree! Taking things slowly and as they happen is great, not forcing or pushing feelings. I appreciate affectionate gestures such as holding hands, little kisses, or arms around each other! Time together will tell if there's anything in our future.

The first meeting should be at a public place(restaurant, park, etc)where it is peaceful and quiet, so we can talk and get acquainted, and we both can feel safe and comfortable. Soda, coffee/tea, drinks/wine or a meal are possibilities, allowing us to spend time learning about each other.
