In Her Own Words
About her
I'm passionate and compassionate, tender, loyal, curious, optimistic. Friends tell me I'm good company. They laugh at my jokes...and also at my cooking. Very physically fit, 5'6", 125 lbs. I love my work--practicing and teaching the art of fiction--and my offspring, and my friends, in nearly equal measure.
I'm an author and retired professor. Definitely a book nerd...hoping to meet same! My Myers-Briggs type is INFJ. I'm vaccinated and boostered.
Sometimes I'm adventurous: I went alone to the Soviet Union with my then three-year-old daughter, and lived and worked there for six months. We went in winter, like Napoleon.
Generally I'm truthful...except about my age, to people who haven't yet met me.
I moved 3000 miles to make a lifelong dream of living in California come true. Now every day brings new pleasures!
About her ideal match
You're my hero if...
You are smart, dependable, and kind. Your work and/or other interests engage you deeply. You've reached a place where you know that the point of life is to experience joy and bring joy to others. Conversation and physicality are equally important to you in a relationship. You're a serious person who loves to laugh.
And say one sunny afternoon we're hiking on the beautiful trails at Huckleberry Preserve, and I'm so busy drinking in the view that I trip. You catch me just before I fall.
