Halliescomet, 52

I feel like my height becomes the elephant in the room whenever I re-enter the dating scene. I'm a foot taller than the average woman and a half foot taller than the average man, and it is what it is. I guess you know that! I'm a fun-loving woman who enjoys a lot of outdoor activities, and while I love being busy, I also love lounging around with a book on random Sundays.

I kayak, hike (slowly - I am not a speed-demon on the trails), do photography and am fairly social. I enjoy a lot of hobbies that I'm not particularly good at - so I guess I just enjoy doing things, and don't need to be ultra-competitive.

I love sports - I worked for an NFL team during college, so no need to explain that drive to me. I'm also a college basketball fan and will freely admit to yelling at the TV during March Madness.

I work as a consultant. It's stressful, but I try not to take the job home with me.

I'm looking for someone close to my height - someone who is honest, sincere, genuine, kind and nice. Good personal grooming is expected and I won't say I'd never date someone with a long beard, but I will say it would be a stretch (yes, there is a story behind that). I'm also looking for someone who is faithful and loyal.

I have a good life and I'm happy. If I meet a guy who is taller than me who enhances my life, that would be great. If not, I'll still be happy - it's not tied to being in a relationship.
