I believe in Honesty and decency for all! (NO, this is not a commercial!!). I'm looking for companionship and all the perks that come with being with that 'best friend' man. I'm NOT looking to just date, but rather to cultivate that long term togetherness!

I copied this from somone's profile: "The key to a lasting relationship is being with someone who is your best friend, your closest soulmate, and someone who respects his/her partner and understands the importance of communication and compromise."
This is exactly how I feel!

Right now, I am discovering 'retirement'! I just retired 11-30-12. I'm working on finding out what I now want to do for the rest of my life!

many things!

is my smile and my sparkling eyes, so I have been told.

I love mysteries, both in books and movies. I like comedies and real life portrayals. I'm not into subtitles. I love biographies. I really am a fan of live performance, concerts, although hard rock is not my idea of fun, and museums. I've gone often to the symphony. Really, there's not too much I wouldn't appreciate. Food: love all types and not afraid to try new tastes. I love chocolate!

Let's see! I could never do without good health, family, friends, and the desire to have a permanent male companion. That's 4, ok. spirituality and a soft place to fall.

I think a lot about living each day to the fullest. I don't have a bucket list, per se, but want to experience the wonders of life.

I go out to dinner with friends, perhaps a movie or play, or just reading or watching a movie alone at home.

If it is private, I will wait to share any of those things.

If you are looking for your last first date, contact me. I don't date SMOKERS.
