Linnie, 69

Friendship first. Someone real, who cares about the inside. You have done some work on yourself and are not needy. You are self actualized and are spiritual. All of these qualities are pieces of who I am and I would like to meet someone like-minded. Fairly smart would be nice. No illegal drug use and no alcoholics. If your in recovery, you have several years tucked in your belt. I am emotional and embrace that about myself. If emotions scare you, you may not want to respond. We all have baggage, but I have gone through mine and am willing to look at my stuff. As long as we are alive we are working on our issues and growing. I like to go camping, I am an avid reader, I meditate, I love T.V. and am proud of it! I love the winter months. Rain comforts me. I don't really like the summer months. The heat is too much for me. I am an activist of sorts and an advocate for those who have trouble speaking out for themselves. I am OUT about my HIV and many of my friends are gay men, so homophobic people need not respond.
