I Would Describe Myself As

I am widowed, retired, and looking for love, a casual relationship and travel companion, then see where it goes. I love cruises to just about anywhere, but maybe not Antarctica; I also like long road trips that we plan together, stopping whenever we feel like it for as long as we feel like. Not into camping and don't have a boat, but I still love to drive, but without a companion it's not as much fun. I love going to concerts, especially country, but have appreciation for other genres such as old-time Rock n Roll, blues, some jazz and some classical, though not opera. I love going to sports events, especially Mariners and watch Seahawks on TV. I have an appreciation for the arts and even operettas, love to go to live theater for drama, comedy and show musicals. I also enjoy cooking after many years of not doing it much. When I am in the kitchen, it's an adventure, but a tasty one. I do not drink or smoke and the woman I am looking for must not smoke, but a social cocktail or dinner wine is OK. After more than 50 years in the same profession, I am retired. Then I started to really work. I became an author last year and I am now working on a second book. I can be very romantic and would love to practice that delicate art once again. I am sincere, caring, honest, with a great sense of human. I love to show affection for the woman in my life. I enjoy giving and giving and giving of my life as much as receiving. I love to walk in the park, along the beach or even in the wilderness. Enough about me What am I looking for in a woman? She should enjoy some of the interests that I have given or be willing to learn as I would be with her interests. She should be romantic and enjoy the tender touch of her man. She can spoil me with her cooking, but also me leeway in the kitchen or on the grill. She should have a great sense of humor and enjoy laughing at herself as well as with me. She should be retired and ready to travel at any time. Family should be important to her as it is with me. Pets are OK, though I'm probably more a small-dog man than a cat person. I have had both.I'm not into big dogs. She should have the sense of adventure and enjoy surprising her man, keeping him guessing and wondering what next. I am not talking about the bedroom, but that would be OK too. Oh yes. She should also be secure financially, not rich, just comfortable. Educated, intelligent to carry on conversation on most subjects as I am and she should wear her confidence, so all can see it. Not a wallflower. And that doesn't mean she might not be shy. We all are when it comes to getting back into the pool. If you've read this far and see yourself in my arms, smiling and so comfortable that a young couple might say "I want to be as much in love as those two are when we get that age", then take the risk, jump in, the water is fine.
