Me?...easy-going, intelligent, honest, compassionate, and enthusiastic liberal who enjoys outdoor activities. If you're looking for a motorcycle rider, that probably wouldn't be me. But if creative, witty, funny, warm, and pretty down-to-earth works for you, maybe we'd enjoy each other's company. For twenty years I worked with "at risk" kids, some of whom were heroes in their own lives. Took an early retirement to try other adventures and now work part-time with the elderly which I really enjoy. I'm concerned with social justice issues and enjoy putting my time and energy into grassroots, people-to-people endeavors. I enjoy learning new things and sharing my activities and interests with others. "Distance" in a dating relationship is something I can deal with for a while as long as it isn't the emotional kind. For me, the perfect relationship is not one involving two perfect people, but one in which, no matter where you are, you feel like you've come home when you walk into each other's arms. My introduction title refers to a wonderful quote I came across..."Never make someone your priority while allowing yourself to be their option." I am looking for one particular person to be a priority in my life, and I in his.
My Ideal Person:
You?...witty, genuine, intelligent, compassionate, warm, and emotionally open. You're not perfect and you don't expect your partner to be. You value people and ideas and creativity. Who you're with is often more important than what you're doing. I'm hoping you enjoy being outside...walking along wooded paths, biking, canoeing (maybe you love being around water, too...I grew up on a large lake). And it would be great if you still marveled at some of the simple joys that will never be duplicated on computer or TV screens...the elusive flash of fireflies, snowflakes the size of quarters, the smooth, rich taste of creme brulee, the crackling warmth of a campfire. You prefer mingling with wildlife rather than communing with their stuffed heads on your livingroom wall, and you'd rather travel 3 mph on foot down a trail instead of 40 mph on an ATV. You're pretty easy-going but often enthusiastic and much more into people than things. Like me, you feel strongly that relationships need ongoing care to thrive. You find conversation, from the little stuff to the big issues, an important way to feel connected to a partner, and you want us both to feel safe in sharing our thoughts and feelings.
