About Me

Welcome to my BS-free profile :). In an effort to weed out the purveyors of nonsense and dysfunction that seem to be so common on here, I've been rather blunt what what I've written and haven't really included anything light and fluffy...So, it isn't likely apparent from my profile, but in person, I've been told by numerous people that I'm fun, funny, easy to talk with, spunky...and also very youthful in appearance and tastes.I'm far more interested in and picky about the inside (character and personality) than the outside, including h***when someone actually takes care of himself, that is. I believe that one should make the best of what he/she has, as I've attempted to do since I was a teenager. My parents have been together, happily, for about 50 years, and it's very clear to me that meaningful and lasting relationships are about way more than looks / physical attraction / sex. If more people paid more attention to the inside than the outside, I'm pretty sure that there would be exceedingly more healthy and successful relationships, marriages...and even families.I need someone who has morals, thinks about consequences, has good judgment...who is responsible, respectful, honest, trustworthy, intelligent...who treats others as he wants to be treated...and who does what he says he will - even with small things, as I see doing such as indications of respect and integrity. He will get all of these qualities from me as well. I am very no nonsense / no "games" - you won't get any from me, and I won't tolerate any either. I am NOT interested in dating men who exhibit any of the following "features": Tobacco use (other than an occasional cigar***recreational drug use of any kind Addictions DishonestyIrresponsibility ShallownessRudeness / disrespect / people who don't do what they say they will do Seeking casual or no strings sexNo vehicle or no valid license to drive Criminal convictionsI've encountered each of the above items from men on here often enough to feel the need to list them upfront as deal breakers. I don't see the point in wasting your time or mine. Messages I've received have indicated a misinterpretation, as if I were seeking a non-drinker, and that is not the case at all. I'm not interested in an alcoholic or someone with a drinking problem, but I have no problem with dating a social or moderate drinker. Unlike the very large number of unrealistic men I've encountered on this site, I'm not expecting to get qualities in a significant other that I don't offer in return. For one thing, I find it rather disturbing how many below average to very average-looking men, who do not appear to be the least bit sexy, make statements in their profiles or messages about how they are seeking a beautiful, pretty, hot, or sexy woman...and that looks are important them. Apparently they do not realize that, even if they were to find a woman to partake, there would almost certainly be a price to pay (probably a monetary one but possibly in a different form), and it will not result in a genuine and healthy relationship...I've seen it happen repeatedly to unrealistic single men I've known who are actually seeking a serious, long term relationship and who have continually overlooked early and obvious red flags in their attempts to get a woman with good sex appeal, and who haven't learned their lesson - but maybe some men don't mind being used. So many of you say how you are seeking a spark and great chemistry and how important those things are to you. But, have you ever considered if YOU, with your looks and personality (and notwithstanding how much money you are willing to spend on her), are in a position to elicit that spark and chemistry for the type of woman you are seeking? Or do you even care if the spark and feelings of chemistry would be mutual or just on your end? Regardless, after what I've seen on here for a while, I REALLY think that everyone would be far better off over the long term if more people started being realistic and also started considering a dating prospect's character / inside rather than only the outside, or rather than being on a mission to simply find the best-looking person / photos who will respond, without any regard for how dysfunctional she/he may be. Being more realistic and less shallow may allow you to actually find a genuine, healthy, and lasting relationship. I'm sure there are plenty of unrealistic single women with the wrong priorities out there as well, but I am not one of them. In fact, I am quite the contrary.I am NOT seeking a man to help me financially. I'm awesome with money and can pay my bills without a boyfriend or husband. I'm seeking an overall and genuine connection, which includes an emotional connection, and I know what I want and what I can work with. I'm happy to make local friends from this site to go out and do things with, however, I have zero interest in being physical with anyone without getting to know him well, exclusivity, an emotional connection and good long term potential. Meeting in person is critical, so I'm not a fan of communicating much before meeting in person for the first time. If we meet each other's basic specifications, I actually prefer to meet quickly...and talk later. I'm geographically flexible...IF you will come to my area for the first date. For a good match, I would have no problem traveling outside of my area to date - after the first date. I'm old-fashioned about dating and don't initiate contact, so please message me if you read my profile and think we could be a match.Thank you for reading...and have a fabulous day :).

    I realize this eliminates everyone with children under 18, but I also feel this is the best approach - an up-front honest one. I am looking for a real man that picks up a phone and plans a date. A little about me - I am spontaneous, independent, warm, intelligent, self-supporting, driven, sophisticated, and polished. I enjoy good music, fine wine and dining out. I have self-respect,can dress up or dress down, and don't take myself too seriously. Looking for a man who knows who he is, no drama, and knows his way around the finer things in life. In many ways, I am a free spirit but I know what it takes to make a living and build a relationship. I like to work out, including Yoga, Mountain Biking, Running. Surprising me with a fun night out is one of the things I love. Please be polished, polite, attentive, put a lady first, be a good speller or at least use spell check! Please be chivalrous, kind, masculine, and be courteous to family, friends and waiters in restaurants. I look forward to enjoying all the Windy City has to offer while I'm here. A night out, sharing some laughs and getting to know each other. If sparks fly, then to be continued...
