About Me

Hello fine sir!I am a passionate foodie/chef and animal loving singer/musician. My favorite pastimes are cooking, singing/practicing music, playing with my two kitties (and pretty much anything that has hooves or paws), reading and watching a really good cerebral film. Speaking of cerebral, I am definitely a sapiophile. There is nothing sexier than a rapier sharp mind and wit with a great sense of humor! I also get a tremendous amount of fulfillment out of volunteering for various organizations, in various capacities... I enjoy helping others in whatever way I am able.Presently, I am a full-time student and a part-time server working on my first degree, an AA in Music. The plan is to transfer to continue/complete a double major: a BA in Communicative Disorders and Music Therapy; after which I plan to obtain a Special Education credential and MA in Speech-Language Pathology. So, I have quite the road ahead of me, however my path is clear and my commitment is absolute. This is my version of a "midlife crisis"...other people want a younger mate, a sexy sports car...me: I abandoned my 17 year restaurant management career to return to school full-time to follow my heart/dreams and maximize my potential in life. If all of this sounds exciting to you - you may be just the man I'm looking for! ;o) At times things are difficult, especially on the financial front, but it is definitely temporary. As many wise friends have said, "This too shall pass."One of my best life friends once said about and to me, "You have always beat to your own drummer." I am definitely not "typical" in any way. My father taught me to always make up my own mind about things - to not follow the herd. Throughout my life, I have always felt like the salmon swimming upstream, going against the grain of what everyone else thinks is "normal" or "acceptable." Some of my favorite topics of discussion: religion, politics, philosophy, social issues, cooking and music - of course music!My musical tastes range far and wide...;;;;; Debussy. I also appreciate some Hip Hop and Country - they just aren't my "favorite" genres of music. As far as my personal musical ability goes, I am studying classical voice and I also love to sing jazz.Some other things you should know about me, I am an "old-fashioned" Christian girl. I am definitely looking for an "old-fashioned" Christian guy. If you are an ardent atheist, while we would most certainly have some interesting conversations, it is doubtful it would ever be more than that. Also, although I work with the public (always have) and enjoy it, I am definitely not an extrovert. I am an introvert who just happens to be bubbly and engaging. I am genuine and sincere, and extraordinarily compassionate towards others...all that being said to say simply, I am not really a "party" girl. My idea of a perfect evening is to have a great home cooked meal, a good bottle of wine, some great conversation and/or a good movie, and genuine intimacy with someone I care about. I am definitely not the superficial type. While physical appearance is important, it is nowhere near as important as the content of someone's heart and mind. Regarding personal appearance: personally, I am plus size - a very curvaceous and attractive plus size, but plus size none the less. I am continuously trying to improve myself and my health is of the utmost importance to me. I am highly affectionate and deeply loyal to those I love. Family is very important to me. Mine is small and we are close.Something important about you: You should be able to complete a grammatically correct sentence in the English language. One of my pet peeves is sloppy/poor grammar. (I even type everything out in text messages.) ...the other major peeve - don't be a super picky eater. I am an outstanding chef/cook, and love cooking for people that I care about. I need someone who enjoys all food types to be truly happy.Lastly, like many people who pursue online dating, I am extremely busy. I want to find someone to share my life with - long term. I will absolutely make time for someone I am interested in, but it must be a two way street.- respect for my personal character as well as my time...I will absolutely respect you and yours, please respect me and mine. Thank you so much for reading! Best wishes in finding your soulmate! Coffee, lunch, wine tasting...a walk on the beach or through a museum, a picnic...or just a nice evening out to a good dinner with engaging conversation. I'm pretty open...let's get to know each other.

    Caroline

    Online

    Woman. 42 years old. Zodiac sign: Aries.

    Looking for: man. In age: 39-49

    Me: Ladylike but can keep up with the boys, friendly yet opinionated, honest yet not rude, outdoorsy (prefers nature over malls), artistic, nurturing, hard-working yet fun-loving, realistic, spiritual, down-to-earth, affectionate. I can spell without using spell-check. I'm as comfortable in my jeans and boots as I am in a little black dress and heels. Love animals. Love music. Love my family. You: Say what you mean and mean what you say, dependable, honest, athletic, mature yet playful, masculine yet has a soft side, strong yet sensitive, witty, good-humored, well-versed, educated, romantic. You love children, respect elderly, and are a gentleman. You love God and are a leader. You have good manners, hold open doors, and bring flowers. You are also comfortable in jeans and boots but can clean up good! You might even be a good dancer, singer, musician?On another note...not to be superficial but I feel there must be some mutual attraction involved. Please post some pictures...some honest pictures from within the past few months. Also, I have school age children and they are my priority. If that isn't your cup of tea OR your children are grown and young ones don't appeal to you right now, I get that. I really, truly do! I never thought I'd be in the online dating world at this point in my life. I'm not into serial dating. In fact, I'm finding out I'm a lil guarded and ultra picky...as we all should be, I suppose. I don't want to waste anyone's time and I don't want you to waste my time. Life is too short and I'm not interested in dating someone that we both know would be no future with. Let's all just be honest about who we are, what we're looking for, etc. Deal? Deal. :)P.S. I'm not *** Sorry if I don't respond but, chances are, I'm not truly sitting in front of my computer. I have a tendency to turn on my laptop and forget about it or get busy with other things. Sorry! WAIT...one more thing! Why do people select others as "favorites" or someone they want to meet but not initiate a coversation or send a message? I don't get that. *I couldn't update this without selecting "my personality in one word"....really?? AND, as if "animal lover" is considered one word!OH, one more thing...I prefer a man to be taller and stronger than me. :) And, well, I'm a little tall and a little strong. Just sayin.WAIT...one more thing!! Ok, just kidding. A first date key ingredient is conversation so anywhere that could be included...meet and greet over coffee? Take it from there.

    Woman. 41 years old. Zodiac sign: Sagittarius.

    Looking for: man. In age: 38-48

    I thoroughly enjoy having quiet time to myself, however it would be nice to connect with someone. I would like to meet someone who is completely hilarious, sexy, charming, kind and is comfortable in their own skin. I enjoy looking into someone's eyes and making them fall to their knees.. No, not really. But it sounded nice anyway. If it happens .. that's awesome. My friends say that I am confident, funny, intuitive, flirty, sweet and loyal. I am getting too old to meet people in bars anymore and frankly it's getting boring. I hope to at least make a few friends here if nothing else. I am not looking for a miracle on Plenty of Fish... it's just a vessel to possibly meet someone who perhaps wants to spend time getting to know how fabulous I am.Please be able to spell and know a little something about emotional intelligence.Likes: Cooking, Hiking, Reading, Singing, Randomness, Romance, Sushi, most music- except country, day trips, traveling, Writing poetry*POF Pet Peeve: Either you want to get together.. or you are a player.. or you are shy.* Whatever the story, get it under control. :)P.S. I do not care if you own a boat, a mansion or several cars, because if you are an ass or a sociopath none of that matters. LOL! Coffee or an adult beverage.
