Risk Averse, Relaxed, Optimistic, Seeks Predictability
I don't like the idea of a quick romantic connection and tend to be more cautious than not developing a relationship. That doesn't mean that I am not romantic. In fact, I am more than less likely to put a relationship at the center of my life. Even though I am an optimistic person, and generally expect life to go well, I think love needs time-and more than my instincts-for me trust it to last. I am looking for a serious, monogamous relationship and I tend to invest deeply in both people and places.
I am seperated from my husband for 10 months now. He is supposed to file for divorce & is not doing so, so I guess it is up to me.... We knew each other for 10 yrs. before we got married, but I never really knew he was so stubborn abt. certain issues. I thought we would be together forever... A good healthy argument once in awhile with compromise working things out is what I expected. So, after trying to make it work despite all odds, my self respect is more important to me and my family, so I am moving on....
I would like to meet friends as friends and family is what makes the world go around....
I am looking for a long time relationship, and possible re-marriage if I meet the right person. I am looking for someone that has the same religious values, and likes to have a lot of fun & laughter in their life. I am looking for someone that loves kids as I am helping to raise my grandson age 4 1/2. I am looking for someone that knows how to fix up a house, as that is one of my hobbies right now. Sheet rocking and painting is in right now! I would like to be able to travel with someone in an RV or taking an airplane trip & motels some day after retiring...
Right now, I live with my daughter and my grandson who rent the upstairs of my house and share the kitchen & living areas.
I am fixing some sheet rock in my kitchen ceiling & painting it...I have re-done my front bedroom & have put a crawl space attic in, and would love to have someone to rent it too as well... so, more people the better as I have a 6 bedroom house. I want to get new siding and windows eventually so I can sell and move closer to work.
Socializing is fun, but I like to keep it to smaller groups of family and friends. I like to listen & watch people as I used to be a security gaurd. I now work in customer service helping business customers with their billing questions & granting late fee reversals & adjustments when it is fitting.
I like to go swimming, bowling, watch movies, stay indoors and watch a video, or go camping and fishing. I have been to square dancing classes in the past and love the fun of it... I don't really like country music, but once in a while it's fun to listen to... I like to relax in the back yard watching my grandson play in the sand box & take in the sun while drinking a diet Mt. Dew.
Writing poetry is a hobbie of mine, and I have been dabling with writing a book.
I am overweight and working on it, but I don't mind a guy with the same issues, and a teddy bear tummy!

***Please don't chat with me if you are after a one night stand or trying to get free sex! I want a relationship & marriage. I do not have sex outside of marriage. I am religious and I have a pastor license to marry people, however I lean towards the LDS faith beliefs!!! ***

I want to find a man that I can spend the rest of my life with, possible travel to fun places or get an RV with and travel around once retired. I have 2 cats, but I don't really like to own pets too much, other than fish. I have a big fish tank that I intend on filling up again since I just moved it downstairs. My daughter has an outside dog & that is how I like him, being outside.
Sharing intimate moments with someone I love, holding hands, and trips to the beach to look for sea shells is what I am looking for. Once in awhile, flowers are a must!
