I love the freedom of being single after 15 years of relationships. But, I also miss companionship, love and laughter. I miss intimacy, sharing our feelings, and working as a team. In my next relationship I'm looking for a woman who really is happy with herself. Genuinely happy, and secure with her life and who she is. Someone who smiles, loves life, loves to talk, is free spirited, makes friends easily and always tries her best. Am I that kind of woman? I am sort of but not as much as I desire those traits in my other half. I love to sit back and have conversations with my other half, support them, enjoy them, love them....but I am not the bubbly one. That's the personality I enjoy the most. I can be very fun, loud, lots of laughter, loving but my personality is calm, quiet sometimes, and mostly observant. I am at my best when I have someone who understands this. A partner who understands and when they need me can bring me out of the quiet place. I really enjoy travelling, being out in nature, cooking food, going out for food, hanging out with friends, going for a drink. I'd love to meet some people who just want to take their time and get to know someone.
