ARELAH, 55
I am a small-framed, slim, thoughtful, considerate and deeply compassionate woman, who wants the companionship of a man who values independence, but also enjoys sharing diverse activities, conversation and genuine affection.
As a former park ranger, librarian and mail carrier, who has resided in other states and countries, I like exploring new places.
Enjoying nature (hike, kayak), music (concerts, open mics), plays, art (galleries, musuems, festivals), food (cafes, picnics, home prep), science (museums, parks), are among my many interests and usually more fun to share. I am very undemanding and accustomed to paying my own way.
My small business, which involves utilizing some of my greatest strengths - kindness, reliability, diplomacy and attention to details - requires frequent travel. It takes time to grow a close friendship, and I will gladly devote focus to building a worthwhile relationship.
I have more to offer as a partner when I also have some privacy and personal time and I respect this same need or desire in a man. (His time with family and friends matters to me ... I don't need to be included in everything). Ultimately, I'd like a monogamous relationship with special depth and closeness.
