Hello,

I am a 56 years young divorced lady. I enjoy a healthy lifestyle, and am an ovo-lacto vegetarian...who is very tolerant of other people's food choices. My children have flown the cope & are very involved with their own lives. I am a grandmother to two, which I enjoy very much...as well as my two cats. They are now my babies...

I am ready and willing to take a chance on love again, and I am searching the world via the internet for my soulmate, hoping that he is out there somewhere searching for me. I would prefer being a "we" to an "I"....being a "couple" to being "alone".....I am looking for someone who has a good sense of humor, but also demonstrates love & compassion on all levels, and is not afraid to cry...someone to share the good times and the bad with...the ups & downs of life...Someone to grow old with, and walk off into the sunset of our golden years with hand in hand and a smile on our faces because we have found what it is we were searching for. I need my "love" to cherish me and our relationship and to be protective of it. I promise to reciprocate. He should be respectful of pets, children, nature, & the environment.. as these are very close to my heart.

I really hope that he is not into spending lots of hours on the net looking at porn sites, and chatting with a multitude of women (young, and other ages). I want to be everything that my man needs & desires, and find it insulting ,when I am with my special man, and he is online not paying any attention to me! It makes me feel unloved, unwanted, and rejected. Are you up for the challenge?

I am romantic, and want to make a commitment. I am looking for someone who is not allergic to pets, as I have two cats & would love to get another dog one day (mine died several years ago). I now live in an apartment. I really miss having alot of space as I did in my house prior to my divorce, & a flower garden to potter about in...I also miss attracting birds, and butterflies, to my backyard in all seasons either by the food I used to put out for them, or by the flowers & shrubs I planted. As you can tell, I miss getting my hands dirty in the soil.

I AM NOT INTO HEADGAMES, OR ONE NIGHT STANDS...I am seriously looking for someone to love, and hopefully he will love me in return.

I would like him to be honest, respectful of women, children, pets & the environment. I hope we can be equal partners in all we choose to do, yet allow each other the space needed for private time, thought & development.

I am drug & disease free and expect the same from my partner.

Hoping that you believe in romance, and old fashioned morals & chivalry as much as I do.

'Til we meet, please take care & be safe.

I think the best place to meet for a first date is at an international coffee house. This way we can enjoy a very exotic coffee together, in a relaxed atmosphere, and both get to do alot of talking and listening. I believe in looking right into someone's eyes when we converse. Hopefully, chemistry will be present...but sometimes, it takes a couple of dates, before the chemistry is evident.
