My introduction

Where are you in your life? I understand that often times men just want to send a smile, and I think that is beautiful and charming. It is like greeting me with a rose when we meet for dinner and conversation. However, I am looking for someone that wants to get to know who I am beyond the words online and the pictures I post. I am looking for someone to share a committed relationship. By committed I understand that it will have its ups and downs, struggles and peace, agreements and disagreements, but always it must have respect for one another and their thoughts, feelings, and emotions (all that is involved in such a relationship). I do not want to date a bunch of people nor have several bed partners. I just want one. One who is not into games or living as a player. One who is trying to find one person to spend quality time with and enjoy that time regardless of what “we” choose to do. One who understands that I have obligations to my two active teenagers, my demanding job, and myself. Therefore, I may not always be available for spur of the moment activities, but I am open to communication. Where are you in your life? I am just your everyday woman trying to make it in today's society. I am down to earth and relaxed. I do not freak out over issues or allow craziness in my life or around my children. I am comfortable with deep intellectual conversation as well as superficial talk. I am learning a lot about doing things by myself and I find it frustratingly fun! I am not so independent where I feel I can do it all by myself. I would like a man in my life to share adult time with yet, I am independent enough to know that I would rather be alone than to chase you. I will not compete for you or share you. I am who I am and would want you to be the same. Where are you in your life? I am quiet in the beginning. Too shy to walk in a club by myself, therefore, I do not do the club scene. I like stolen glances, quick smiles, and conversation. I am curious and thoughtfully quiet. I am not big on the beach (don’t care for the sand between my toes). I speak to many people (that is the way I was raised), but I am not a big flirt nor am I a very aggressive person when it comes to relationships. I like what I like and state it. I do not beat around the bush, and I don’t wait a long time for you to decide if you want to continue communication with me or not. I am here. Being a widow, I am a novice to the dating world in this day and age. I last dated over 25 years ago and my how things have changed! So I ask you ...Where are you in your life?
