Friends first..I would like to find someone to share special/quality times with. I miss having someone to share with. I am an animal lover and I have a German Shepherd...she is a big part of my world. On the weekends I love being outdoors, doing just about anything. I enjoy most of the things that others do, dining out, going to music venues, day/weekend trips, I enjoy going to flea markets, auctions & antiquing I love flowers and gardens, if someone else does the planting, I'll do the watering! I enjoy being near the water and the beach, but just don't get there enough. I have also done some camping and hiking, although it has been awhile, and would like to experience new things too.

The man that I would like to meet is sensitive and caring, who is honest with integrity. He is loyal to his loved ones and friends and believes in and practices monogamy. I hope that he enjoys and believes in what he does...not only in his job, but in other aspects of life as well. As we are all aware, all of us have ups and downs that we deal with, but I think the best thing is too face whatever the issue is, try to deal with it, and move on.

In reality, I would like to think that I will find someone that I can connect with and want to spend time with.....(and vice versa obviously) and, the ultimate coming out of that would be finding my best friend, confidante and lover (perhaps life partner?). In addition, the things that I mention I'm looking for, I have to offer someone as well...and if I really like you.....even more.

But hey ...........we have to start somewhere, right?

P.S. The Boxer in the picture belongs to my niece, the shepherd belongs to me!

1st meeting: Coffee or lunch.....we'll see what happens from there...
