In Search of .....

After a 37 year career, I retired in 01/2009 from my U.S. Federal Gov't position as an IT Specialist, Infrastructure Security & Policy Systems (developing,maintaining, monitoring, and enforcing). My Career has ended and I have the time to devote to My Next Chapter in Life. I believe that to Love someone else, you have to Love yourself. Life is too short and there isn't another day promised, so I make the best of each day. I am a Rookie at online matching, and somewhat skeptical; however, I've decided to try it on a short term basis, because 'A Match' isn't likely to knock on my door, lol. I would like to share life's things with a compatible man. I feel a good match has to begin with personality and chemistry that should click upon the first meeting, and should continue throughout getting to know each other better. If we find that we are compatible, then see what happens. This sets the foundation upon which to build a Solid Relationship, whether in friendship or committed. Communication is a key ingredient in a relationship, open to discussion without fear of judgment. Trust and Integrity are earned, rather than an entitlement. I also think that two people can have separate interests of activities, as long as time is made for 'Our Time'. I can be a couch potato, next to my man watching TV/Movies, doing projects around the house, or dressed for a day/night of activities. I don't bring baggage from prior relationships into a new one. I'm grounded, respectful, kind, and settled both financially and in life. I like being Me and I want you to be Yourself. Honesty & Trust are necessary ingredients in a friendship and relationship. I have a quick and witty sense of humor that I think you will enjoy. Feel free to message me, I'm here :-) Questions are always welcome, I'm somewhat of an open book.

Looking For

Must haveIntelligence, Good Looks, Humor, Great skills, Empathy, Sensitivity, Spontaneity, Flirtatiousness, Wit, Thoughtfulness
Look for in a partnerTypically I look for a person that is Honest, Loyal, Thoughtful, Sensitive to others, grounded (not looking for the next party), secure both financially and in life. I appreciate a quick and witty sense of humor, and a Man that knows what he wants and desires to achieve, whether in relationship, business, or retirement . I don't like boastful, and If you're looking for a One-night stand, Booty-call, Hook-up or a Friend with benefits, I'm not your girl. I like a man that doesn't play games, or bring drama to a relationship.
On the first dateA quiet place for a few-hour meeting to get to know each other and hopefully the 1st meeting should be very telling and each should know if they want to meet again. This should be in a public and sedate atmosphere that is comfortable and quiet for conversation, and interaction exchange. If there is not Chemistry, I believe it will be evident to both.
