About Me

Hey guys!Listen, I know it's hard to get a sense of who a person really is on these sites. It's hard to know exactly what to write that will catch that one special person's eye; make them take notice and actually make contact with you. So many of us just look without ever contacting, and I think that's sad.You never know....you might be passing up the best thing that ever happened to you! So, in an effort to share a few things about myself, here are some random thoughts. Perhaps you can identify with one or more of these, and if so, ALL IT TAKES IS ONE E-MAIL TO GET THINGS ROLLING! (SEE #15 BELOW!!!!!)RANDOM THOUGHTS:1. I feel that honesty is the most important thing in a relationship.You can't have a good relationship without it.2. I'm generally in a good mood and like to be around positive, happy people. 3. Currently, my daughter is the most important person in my world, but I DEFINITELY have room in my heart/life for the right man too! 4. Don't you just wish everyone in the world could be as nice to each other ALL YEAR LONG as they are at Christmas.5. I love to see it snow and can still hold my own in a snow ball fight!6. I love thunderstorms, good books, rocking chairs on porches facing the beach, roaring fires and the sound of my daughter laughing.7. Seafood, Pizza and pasta are my favorite foods! 8. Ice cream is my favorite sweet! Well, ice cream and SNICKERS!9. If I could pick anywhere in the world to live, my first pick would be on or within walking distance to the beach. Maybe I can retire there one day.10. Been to Vegas a handful of times. Loved it! Wouldn't mind going back to visit! But could NEVER live there.11. I find it hard to deal with high maintenance people. It seems to take energy that could be used for more important things.12. I used to play pool on a ladies team. We took third place in a National Competition in Vegas one year!13. I hate tight, small places.14. My friends and family are very important to me.15. I have been really working on this for many, many years, so most people don’t know that I am basically a shy person. So...DON"T WAIT FOR ME TO MAKE THE FIRST MOVE! Sometimes I need a little push/SHOVE! ;***. The ability to laugh at oneself is important. But sometimes I use humor when I feel uncomfortable.17. It's important to me to resolve conflicts as soon as possible. I don't like to go to bed mad! The ability to talk to each other and work it out is so important! It's okay to agree to disagree, but don't let disagreements get in the way of your love for each other.18. I'll never settle for "just good enough" ever again.19. Old fashioned Christian gospel music touches my soul and moves me to tears....but I like most music.20. I don’t know when I got this old, BUT I DON'T INTEND TO ACT LIKE IT!21. Reading is my escape! Reading is my way of making myself slow down and sit for awhile!22. And I miss her so much!23. I'm pretty happy with my life .....(TRANSLATION: I don't need you to rescue me or be my sugar daddy...unless of course you just want to! Kidding...remember I like humor!) ......but I’m kind of scared of growing old alone...guess that's why it would be nice to have someone to share the rest of my life.........24. Sometimes I cry easily when people hurt my feelings...but I don't want to hurt theirs, so they may not even know. 25. I feel pretty sure that the change in people’s priorities and the decrease in the amount of time spent with family has led to all the corruption we see around us. 26. I’m far from perfect, but I'm basically a good person. 27. I am FIERCELY loyal to my friends and PASSIONATE about the things and the people I believe in or care about!28. I still need sparks! And I don’t want to “settle” for good enough!29. Well, I need sparks and someone who knows how to communicate! My crystal ball is broken and I can’t read minds! And oh yeah, I need to be around someone who can laugh!30. I’m a good listener! So what's your story? So...guys.....if you can identify with any of this I'd love to hear from you. (SEE #15 ABOVE) To be honest, I think it would be better if we didn't even call it a "date". Let's just say our first "meeting" is probably better over a cup of coffee or glass of sweet ice tea! Somewhere we could sit comfortably and chat for awhile,......get to know one another........, see if there are any sparks! :-) If so, then we can worry about a first "date".

    My cousin once said to me "I don't know *how* you're still single!" Well, I'm not quite sure either, but part of it is because I'm happy enough on my own and won't "settle", and that I can sometimes come across as a little intimidating (rather than just confident). (Now, just because I'm happy enough on my own doesn't mean that I want to be on my own forever, it just means that I'm going to wait until I meet the right guy rather than rush into something that's "good enough". Make sense? Like someone once said, it's better to be single than to be in a bad relationship. If it's worth it, I'll work for it; if it's not, I won't... Having said that, I should warn you that I tend to not jump into things too quickly. I like to take some time to get to know somebody before making a decision one way or the other. I don't want to miss out on anything, but I also don't want to make a premature commitment...)I think the easiest way to tell you about myself is to just give you my "laundry list" :)Me:- single (never been married***don't have any kids (but definitely want them)- independent- intelligent- love to travel and go camping! (but always love getting back home, too - there's nothing like sleeping in your own bed when you've been away for a while)- realist- optimist (yes, it may seem to contradict the "realist" above, but it doesn't really)- romantic- sarcastic (who me? nah...!)- slightly offbeat sense of humour - sometimes people just don't "get it"- generous- confident- easy going- like (and have) tattoos (I have 4 right now, all pretty small) (I also have my nose pierced)- not a big animal person...- Non-smoker--; Prejudice (and yes, I like the classic "chick flick" too...)You:- similar to me, but with enough differences to make life interesting :***know who you are, and know what you want out of life- enjoy camping and travelling- like going to folk fest (or are happy to humour me and keep me company)- adventurous, spontaneous, easy going- appreciate and enjoy spending time with friends and family- as comfortable getting dressed up and going out as wearing sweats and staying in - want kids (this is a dealbreaker for me, and I'd like them sooner than later, but won't rush it just 'cause)- think family (in general) is importantMy one big deal-breaker (aside from wanting kids) is if you're a smoker. Sorry, but if you smoke, I'm not interested.I think that's it for now...although I do want to say that these aren't "requirements", just "wishes", and by no means a list of specifications that you must meet...lolIf I've "favourited" you, it's because I'm intrigued and want to say hi but I either didn't get a chance right away, or I'm not sure what to say...feel free to say hi first, or wait until I do...either one works. :-)(and fair's fair - you've seen my photo, I'd like to see yours - I pretty much won't reply if you don't have one) Lunch, drinks or coffee would be a good start (on a patio in the summer, of course!). If things go well, then maybe go for a walk, or out for dessert. As long as it's something where we can talk and get to know one another, I'm up for it!Just a word of caution - I'm not one to wait a long time before wanting to meet...chatting online is fun and fine for a bit, but the whole point here is to actually meet people, right? :-)

    Woman. 33 years old. Zodiac sign: Leo.

    Okay... listen up guys (well... read thoroughly please!)I know exactly what I want. I want a guy, who is outgoing, sweet, sincerely, loving, and ready to take life where it takes US. I say US because this is a dating site. If your not looking to date, or get serious, why are you on here? I don't mind, going on a few dates, to see if we are capitable, and then if you feel like we are not, just remaining friends, but I do not want to waste my time or yours... I know I am looking for more. In the long run, I just want to find my bestfriend, who I can live a happy and easy going life with... I don't see why anyone doesn't want that! Reality is, I know what type of man I am looking to date. He has to be adventurous, easy going, and positive thinking. I am a very moderate person, and am learning life balances and so forth, and require a man who understands that as well. And I want a man who is willing to go and see the world, as I love to travel. I haven't been ANYWHERE but am looking forward to exploring EVERYWHERE.A little about me:Fun loving and easy going female, with a heart of gold. I have a crazy family, and even crazier friends, and love them to bits. I am very retro and love anything vintage. In the same sense, I am totally a modern girl, and can take care of myself. Personality wise, I am very witty, and have a sarcastic streak that gets me in trouble. I am told I have mischievous green eyes, which are always twinkling with jokes. I am not a prude.... and I love affection and romance. But don't think I am "easy" by any means. I do know what I want, but I am trying to keep my options open. Bad boys, only apply if your ready to be good to a woman, because I will not tolerate games. So.... before I get too deep, know this, I am just looking for friends to have fun with and let it go from there. And no, friendship does not mean casual sex! As for hobbies and fun outside of work, I love movies, nice dinners with friends, going to a beautiful lake and or the beach, picnics on cool days, sporting events (although I desperately need someone to teach me football.... I want to be abe to get into the sport but have no idea anything about it!), the theater (alley... not AMC is what I mean), DIY projects, jewelry design (I am actually starting my own company!), and just having fun with great friends, regardless of what it is! So, in meetville terms, anyone willing to bite? [u}As an added note, I do not date black men or muslim men. Also, I'd rather date a nonsmoker and a man who's faith is christian. I leave that up to the guy. The more you surprise me, the happier I am! Oh- and please don't flake! I know this is the Internet but no body has time for all that.
