Date women from United States / Arizona / Tucson, 55 year old

Date a woman from United States. A little bit about who I am. It has been said that I'm dynamite in a small package. I have a strong will to succeed in life and achieve my personal and professional goals. My competitive nature has allowed me to complete the Suzuki rock 'n' roll marathon (I'm not a regular runner) and the 3-day 60 mile Breast Cancer walk. I don't put on airs and expect honesty in return. I'm comfortable in my own skin and expect the same from others - life is too short for games. I'm comfortable in jeans or a little black dress.
I enjoy outdoor activities including hikes/walks (Sabino Canyon or Mt. Lemmon); going to the Lake, or camping (in the cooler months). In the fall, I enjoy UofA games, Sunday Football, dancing, reading, etc.
I have raised a wonderful daughter, who is grown and now has a family of her own. I'm at a point in my life where starting a family is no longer an option.
I grew up in New York and Tucson - I'm the second oldest of five kids. We all live in Arizona and have remained close throughout the years.
Passionate about dogs especially goldens. I'm involved with an organization that provides pet therapy to at risk children.
I'm looking for someone to be my life partner and grow old with. My ideal time spent together would be taking a hike or walk in Sabino Canyon or Mt. Lemmon; having a nice meal with a good glass of wine (either dining out or cooking at home), or meeting for coffee. Looking for new experiences and adventures - are you ready?

Meet someone special from United States. I am twice divorced and ready to live the rest of my life with a smile and new adventures wherever I can find them. I just bought my first Harley-Davidson and look forward to taking classes and doing some repairs before becoming the operator instead of the passenger. I spend every other weekend with my 10 year old grand daughter. I plan to travel to London to meet my cousin who I've been communicating with since childhood. I have an open heart, an open mind and love to laugh. I've been through some devastating experiences making me grateful for all that is good in my life.

Date a soulmate from United States. Me...A nice, positive, upbeat, self-confidant gal that thrives on excitement adventure. Nothing better then a good laugh to put things into perspective. I'm energetic, spontaneous and enjoy being active as well as spending down time at home or in my garden. My family, pets and friends are the most important parts of my life.
Being a good listener/conversationalist, I genuinely like all types of people, am straight forward and shoot from the hip. I've been accused of being a funny, caring and intelligent lady that possesses a lot of common sense...but heck, you can't always believe what people say! :-))
I'm healthy of body, mind and spirit. Feel that I have a great sense of style, am a hard worker, have had several businesses throughout my career, place compassion/empathy, kindness, passion/romance at the top of my list. I volunteer in my community and believe in giving back by offering my time to those who need it.
I believe that I live my life with the following quote in mind: "Life's a journey, the idea is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting "hot damn... what a ride!" If you don't have passion in everything you do, why do it? How do you truly experience live life to it's fullest without it?
I'd like to start off dating and see where the road may lead. Who knows, maybe the right frog will come along, we'll kiss, sparks will fly and together ride off into the sunset. Nice thought don't you think?

Meet a woman from Tucson, United States. I'm a very adventurous woman who believes in taking calculated risks. I cherish great conversations and love to have my intellect stimulated. I believe life is short and we need to live each day to the fullest. Honesty and integrity is important even when it doesn't paint a glowing portrait. Friends consider me to be vivacious and enthusiastic. I mingle well in any type of setting and have been known to tell a good story that will keep your attention. I am a romantic at heart and always believe in love, even when it has been painful. I am hopeful to meet a man who can still seek love even though he may have previously felt the sting of love gone wrong. I look for a man of confidence, intelligence, and one who appreciates the heart of a good woman. When I love, I do so intensely and completely because I think nothing should be held back when we commit to another person. Sensuality and sexuality is vital in a healthy relationship and nothing is more satisfying than the sexual and emotional intimacy shared by two who love and respect each other. A man who knows himself well and can express his own needs, wants and desires is appealing to me. I am a contemporary woman with some old-fashioned values and ideas. I don't believe in competing with my man. I think when we enter a relationship with someone 5050 is not enough. I want to be able to give all of myself and commit whole-heartedly. This means I give 100% and hold nothing back. This does not mean that I need to be with my man 247 but that the relationship deserves the best effort I can give. I think individual interests are important and help to keep us exciting to each other. I cherish the time with my partner but do not expect nor do I need constant reassurance by having to be together all the time. Kindness and patience are a quality I appreciate. One other thing…I use a walker or crutches when I am outside my home due to nerve damage in my foot. Disabled, not defeated. Shall we continue this exploration?

Date someone special from Tucson, United States. I'm looking for a Courageous Man of Christ, a truly committed Godly man. A man who loves Jesus will also be a man filled with Agape love, Joy, and an Abundant Life, pressed down and overflowing with the good things of the Lord. I will match you in all of these traits. I make it a point to look for the blessings in each day, praising Him for the sunrise, sunsets and all the delightful surprises inbetween. I'm passionate about serving Him, about traveling, learning new things, having new experiences, and eager to find someone to walk side-by-side with. I'm looking for a relationship that will be between 2 equals, filled with love & respect, companionship, stability, security, monogamy, passion, and above all grace! If you are my prince, your lady awaits you.

Meet a soulmate from Tucson, United States. Me? I'm a confident, intelligent, witty, adventurous, athletic woman, mother, daughter, friend, and sister. I take good care of myself. I'm alive and vibrant and youthful. I love my young adult kids. My life is good, and I'd love to share it with someone. I'm funny, down to earth, and authentic. At this point, I know that I mesh best with someone who is liberal, open-minded, maybe a bit quirky, is a parent, communicates, values taking good care of themselves, eats healthy, and is still growing. I want to share my story and I want to listen to yours. I also want to create one together. I want to inspire and be inspired.
I am ready to meet someone with whom to grow a deep and profound love. This will require fun and work, joy and sorrow, vulnerability and strength, solitude and togetherness, and the willingness to be impeccably honest. I'm looking for someone to hopefully spend the rest of my life with; someone to share both the extraordinary and the mundane...those every day things and those once in a lifetime opportunities that life occasionally gives us. And...I realize that this takes time and effort and I'm not in a hurry, nor do I wish to settle. Relationships like this grow slowly and organically from sharing time and doing things together that we love and are fun and enjoyable, such as travel, co-existing quietly and doing nothing, adventure, nature, creating beauty, sharing art and music, listening to the rain, reading to each other in bed, laughing, cooking, collecting shells on the beach,…the list goes on. Besides having fun, I want to support my mate and be supported by him through life's difficulties and disappointments that are inherent in living an authentic life. Obviously, I’m looking for the real thing…light/dark, black/white, beauty/ the beast.
Things I think about doing: walk the Camino de Santiago, go to Kauai in November, share resources, get a vintage Airstream, trek in Nepal, visit Prague, Greece, Spain, and Italy, learn to weld, see elephants in Africa, build a house and live off the grid, kayak in B.C., have a yurt, see The Blue Man Group in L.V., watch The Olympics this summer, be an organic farmer, have more time... There is still so much left to do! Wanna join me?
Best,
D.

Date a woman from Arizona, United States. Well, I have to say I find it difficult to write about myself. This is all new to me and feels very artificial. Here goes... I am a photographer and really prefer to be behind the camera rather then in front, so I don't have many photos of myself. As a visual artist I am intrigued by the fine details of the world around me. I like to examine the world closely and am drawn to the play of light and dark, the beauty of a fallen flower, animal tracks in the snow, and the beauty of the Alhambra. I am a positive, fun-loving, energetic person and love to dance. Dance lessons anyone? Salsa, country swing, east coast swing, tango... Experiencing music festivals, going to art exhibits, camping, wine tasting, day trips, weekend adventures are some of my favorite ways to spend my time. I also enjoy traveling and experiencing other cultures first hand. I go to the gym regularly, but I would rather do yoga or go dancing. Soccer is my favorite sport to play and watch, but also enjoy a day at home, listening to NPR with a cup of coffee, reading, working on my photos. I am a native Arizonan and I am fortunate to see my family frequently.
I work full-time at a college in the photography department. I taught fine-art photography for 20 years and now run the digital and wet darkrooms. It is stimulating work that I enjoy very much. My passion is making my own art photographs. My teenage son is my priority as he prepares for college.
I have been separated for two years and am working through the final paperwork of the divorce. Sometimes it takes longer for the paperwork to catch up with the heart. I am looking to spend time with someone whose company I enjoy. It would be great to share experiences with another who has a zest for life and a passion for the arts. If this resonates with you, I would love to hear from you.

Meet someone special from Arizona, United States. Love to meet people, I enjoy a good conversation, I enjoy being alone sometime, to meditate. So in fact I love just being blessed with every day. I love being spontaneous, I love when people are comfortable with them self.

Date a soulmate from Arizona, United States. i am looking for someone to hang out with, laugh with, go listen to music with. i am looking for someone that has a positive attitude and treats people with respect. i like a man to open a door for me and treat me like a lady and i will in turn treat him like a gentleman. i want laughter....have not subscribed yet so i can't im sorry

. I've recently moved back to Arizona from New England. I'd love to find my emotional, physical and spiritual partner.
I want a man in every sense of the word. I love being a woman and I am so grateful for our differences. I like being treated like a woman and I know how to treat you like a man.
Communication is key. For a relationship to work you must be able to open up. No judgement or comparisons to past loves. I can never replace a past love, nobody can. It can be uniquely as meaningful, beautiful, and sincere. I do believe in soul mates and I know we can have more than one in this life and often are meant to meet them. I am very open and am easy to talk to about anything.
I do not need extravagant things nor do they impress me, no more than the basics to live comfortably, do I need. The things that can't be seen but felt and offered from the heart are far more important to me.
I would LOVE to find a man who likes to cook and hang out in the kitchen (or any place) with me. I do really enjoy coooking. I am just as happy to stay home and watch movies snuggled up close, as I am going out. I love going to concerts. Love music... Anything really. I haven't danced in so long, (in public), but would love to.
I like eating out, but try to keep it healthy. BTW Real men DO eat tofu!! I tend to lean toward vegetarianism, BUT please know I am not 100% stuck. I will venture out and love to try new foods. I love seafood, shellfish. I admit, I do enjoy a really good night of eating junk food, too.. I have my weaknesses! Popcorn and Milk Duds, jelly beans!!..
Growth is vital in a relationship, individually and as partners. I am willing to try doing something new that interests you as I'd hope you would do the same for me. I love making soap from scratch and herbal tinctures, salves, etc. Learning the native plants here in southern AZ. I love to hike up into the mountains and can spend hours in the desert.
We all come into relationships with baggage filled with "stuff", right? Well, I am looking for someone who has packed his "stuff" neatly and has stored it away, remembering it's location, but has no need to dig it out any time soon. Life is short and getting shorter every day. Please be open to committing to a relationship with an open heart and a clean slate. I am not looking for a "casual" relationship, unless we have an agreement. I don't want to hurt you and just the same, I don't want to be hurt. I enter new relationships with an open heart. I simply want a loyal loving partner in life for as long as it is meant to be..

. I am a naturally happy energetic person. I enjoy men who are smart, with a good sense of humor. I want to meet someone accomplished and confident with many interests.My children are my greatest gift...they are truly the best thing I have ever done My daughter is finishing her degree at Eller Business College at the U of A and my son is entering high school My closest friends describe me as strong, intelligent, caring and funny. I am looking for someone who is independent, smart, and not afraid of trying new things.
I am financially secure and I do not need to be supported or rescued. I would like to meet a man who is comfortable being a true partner, friend and lover.
I am comfortable at ball games or at black tie affairs and am perfectly happy watching old black and white movies at home. I enjoy fishing in the White Mountains, art gallery openings, 5 star restaurants and back yard bbqs. Traveling is one of my favorite activities. I want to live in Europe after I retire. New cultures, new foods and languages are all exciting for me.
I volunteered for the Peace Corps in West Africa right after college and have spent more than 30 years volunteering for various non profit agencies in Tucson. I believe in giving back.
I have an open mind and I try to see all sides of an issue but I will not tolerate bigotry, hatred or crabby people. Life is too short!!!

. I love men who can take me to the wonders of the world they don't have to be rich but rich in love I don't want to settle but I need a man that can love me not just was me for money but take time to see how good of a person I am
