In My Own Words…
Tell us a little about yourself:
Would you want to tell a story about how your eyes locked across a table and you just knew you were meant for each other? I like occasional charms like receiving flowers, sharing an ice cream cone and wearing heels. Been watching that matchmaker show with the great date ideas: skating, go-carting, ride over the city lights---dreamy! I enjoy my grown daughter, because we still shop, go out to eat and my friends like a girls' night out, too, and with being single, those closest to me are an involved part of my life as we try to participate in theatrical works.
I'd like a traditional, romantic relationship with dancing, taking your arm, side by side conversations over finger food... It's about balancing the day-to-day life with fun companionship, listening to music or laughing at each other's jokes---that amazing experience that comes from becoming deeply attached. Isn't it a lot more fun to watch Capra's It's A Wonderful Life with shared Chinese take-out?
I speak these languages:
French and Russian, but speaking has gone to the back burner with the occassional read paragraph or foreign movie.
My turn-ons and what I’m looking for in a person:
for fun:
Enjoy an evening out, a park concert or looking out over the water. Tourista activities and checking out community theatre, ballet and musical performances are uplifting. Quaint, scenic small towns, like Newport, RI; the oceanviews are breathtaking.
My favorite restaurants, local hangouts, or travel destinations:
favorite hot spots:
Napa Valley is the most romantic area I've been fortunate to visit. I enjoy sight-seeing big cities, especially checking out a festival in Manhattan. Driving the eastern shoreline to Florida, sampling regional cuisine and galleries in DC is fun. Roma Gardens Restaurant in Hopatcong, NJ is very cozy, and you'll see me there enjoying the food and wine.
My favorite Books and Authors:
last read:
Will read up on many subjects, inspired by PBS channels and the internet. Will flip through any available magazine from Rolling Stone to Newsweek, Town & Country or Glamour.
My favorite movies:
I do like Gone with the Wind epic dramas, and am a fan of TCM and AMC movie channels.
Here are some things I could do without!
Given a choice between happy-go-lucky and picky-but-lonely, happy sounds more interesting, and favor character, intellect and heart, not unlike the TV sitcom character, Frasier Crane, a man of some intellect, fine tastes, and with an ability to adapt.
