Tessaodessa, 69

I am well educated, well read and well traveled. I have been a widow for 2 years. I don't have to work. I have no debts. I am fun and personable. I love to entertain. I enjoy traveling very much. I don't know how to do any man stuff. I'm pretty much a girly girl. Don't want to fish or camp. Hate football and other sports like that. Love to go snow skiing. Can't swim but enjoy boating, like at Lake Powell. Really enjoy renting the houseboats there. I was born abroad and love Europe. I don't pay bills or manage money without help. I like to have a housekeeper come in once a week. I can cook if I have a recipe to follow. Love to read. I can talk to anyone about anything with some degree of knowledge. I don't argue, I negotiate and compromise. Don't nag, no point in it. I'm devoted and compassionate, I give back every bit of what I get. Compliments and praise are my performance boosters. I am very affectionate when trust has been established. I have been known to have the occasional hissy fit but nobody is perfect! I'm addicted to beads, I design and make jewelry with them as a hobby. I would like to meet a man who is financially stable and has his retirement well planned. I will not live on a farm or out in the middle of nowhere. I need a city, medium to small is good. I like to have a wide range of friends in my life. I am not high Maint. but I do like my beauty appointments regularly. I like fine things and would never buy clothing at Wal-Mart! However I do not shop excessively. I keep classic clothing and add items as styles change, all in moderation. I want my partner to be proud of my look. I very much admire a well dressed and well groomed man. It speaks volumes about his self worth. I need someone who can TALK to me and has some education himself. I'm SOOO not interested in any man who is emotionally unavailable!! I want attention! I don't want your money, I want your self.
