Portland, Oregon | Woman Seeking A Man

Basic Information

I Would Describe Myself As
I have experienced love and know what it feels like and I'm missing that feeling. But even more than that, I want to be known. Being known means spending time together, sharing in all of it's forms. I would like to retire soon... maybe in four years of less if possible. I will not be rich and I may be close to poor, but I will be happy. I have worked as an archivist for the last 11 years. I spent 11 years first at Portland State University, then at Florida state University and graduated from UCLA with a degree in History. My focus was folklore and mythology. These studies were a perfect lead-in to Jungian studies. My job as an archivist is wonderful and yet it is not my life. I have traveled extensively in Mexico and would either like to spend a lot more of my time there or preferrably retire there. If it were'nt for caring for my incredibly independent mother, and not wanting to miss my two grandchildren grow, I would be in a warm climate right now. The cold is very unpeasant for me but I do not hide from it. I prefer a warm beach, warm salt water, some drinks and time to explore and meet people. I would like a friend to fall in love with, to grow old with, to share my heart with, to explore the parallel universe, attend lectures, read, sit at a sidewalk cafe to watch the world go by and to talk and talk. I want to hear your ideas. I want to debate philosophy and religion and O.K. politics...
