So what can I tell you about myself? I’m in my early 50s and I’m looking to meet someone who I can spend some quality time. We might as well get the big questions out of the way now: I’ve never been married but I’ve been close. I’m looking for someone who is their own person and doesn’t want a relationship to complete them, but because they want to share who they are with someone. A good relationship is one were both people learn and grow. I’ve been working my whole adult life and when I was in my 40s I went back to school to get an A. A. in Business Admin in order to improve my work situation. I have been working for the Santa Clara County for over 27 years in the accounting field and I hope to retire in the next 3 to 5 years. I own a small mobile home; (The bank really owns it, they just let me pay them a lot of money to live there.) I have a good relationship with my family. OK, now that the boring stuff is out of the way; I have this dream about getting my book published. I wrote a murder mystery and would love to have a second career as a writer. I’m also involved with some friends in a web business; it's a lot of fun. I play in a regular poker game every other Friday which is nice because my Dad has been part of that game since I can remember so I get to spend time with him doing something we both enjoy. I’d love to learn to play Bridge. I had two cats but lost one in February 2012 and just very recently had to let the other one go They were over 14 years old. I will adopt some new kittens when I’m ready. I also love dogs, (Must Love Dogs). I always say “Hi” to them when I see them on the street. Sometimes the people with the dog will let me pet them. That is always nice. I would love to have a partner to share my life with, someone who can share the laughter and the tears and everything in-between. I’d like to meet someone who’d be just as happy going out as they would sitting at home and snuggling in front of the TV. I’m not in a rush so let’s take our time to get to know each other and do this right. I’m not looking for friends with benefits. I want my next relationship to be my last one. I promise to respond to all emails and winks (although some winks I can't respond to because the profile is gone) I’m not going to go into all the normal stuff about how I’m generous and giving etc., I’ll leave that up to you to decide. What I will tell is I try every day to be the best person I can be. I just hope that’s enough.
