Vivacious, fun-loving woman who also enjoys reading and intellectual conversation. Trying out new things and meeting new people excite me. I'm always looking forward to the future and finding the good and fun in life. I'm extremely confident but I know my shortcomings. I don't have enough fingers for all the pies I want to get my fingers into. I'm privileged to know so many diverse people from all walks of life. I get passionately involved in my interests in my life. I like sun more than snow. I prefer character to cute, puppies to kittens and dancing to music rather than just listening to it. I know how to treat a man.

I guess you could say that I like a good challenge whether that means renovating my house, or finding a new way to better myself through experiences, but I am laid back enough that I realize that you have to enjoy every second that you have.

Somewhere out there is a great guy who will not only want to introduce me to new things, but will also like to try some new adventures. The man I would like to meet is confident and self-assured, but isn't arrogant, with an over-inflated ego. I am looking for a guy who can keep me on my toes both when it comes to intellect and energy. There is nothing that I won't do to support the people I care about, but if I think you are wrong I will tell you and I hope that you would do the same for me. Are you a man who is filled with surprises? When you hold me in your arms, are you the type of man that will make me feel safe and warm? Have you made it all the way to the end of my profile? Then what are you waiting for? Drop me a line and let's plan our next adventure.

FACTS ABOUT WOMEN OVER 40

"As I grow in age, I value women over 40 most of all. Here are just a few reasons why:

A woman over 40 will never wake you in the middle of the night and ask, "What are you thinking?" She doesn't care what you think. If a woman over 40 doesn't want to watch the game, she doesn't sit around whining about it. She does something she wants to do, and it's usually more interesting. Women over 40 are dignified. They seldom have e a screaming match with you at the opera or in the middle of an expensive restaurant. Of course, if you deserve it, they won't hesitate to shoot you if they think they can get away with it. Older women are generous with praise, often undeserved. They know what it's like to be unappreciated. Women get psychic as they age. You never have to confess your sins to a woman over 40. Once you get past a wrinkle or two, a woman over 40 is far sexier than her younger counterpart. Older women are forthright and honest. They'll tell you right off if you are a jerk if you are acting like one. You don't ever have to wonder where you stand with her. Yes, we praise women over 40 for a multitude of reasons."

If you can not see yourself with this type of woman, than I'm sorry but I am not the girl for you.

something casual and relaxed maybe a conversation over drinks or something to eat where we can get to know each other a little.
