This is the part where the wonderful description of ourselves goes hmmm? It is a somewhat daunting task to describe oneself. So here it goes, some random things about me: At my best I am spirited, curious, and diverse, at my worst stubborn and I talk too much. I try to be a better me everyday, physically, and mentally. I am very straightforward and take things as they come to me. If you ask me my opinion, I will tell you, tactfully of course, and it will be exactly that, my opinion. Feel free to disagree. I am a self described glass is half full girl. Honesty is of great importance to me. So is laughter. I don't gossip, it's unkind. I keep confidences because it is important to be trustworthy. The best compliment I ever received was that I am compassionate. The best advice ever given to me was "we regret in life more the things we don't do than the things we do". I am a people person. I love kids and old people (I know that sounds hokey, but I do!) They usually have an interesting take on things. I am inspired by nature and the outdoors. I am learning to fish because my children love fishing. Last year I learned to shoot and loved it! I am also rather bookish, reading and writing are my escape. I love movies, music, and theater. I speak fluent German. I like early mornings as much as late nights. My favorite movie is "It's a wonderful life". My current favorite song is "Sometimes I get a feeling" by Flo Rida. I will dance, although it is usually in my kitchen while cleaning. I am not a huge sports buff but will hang around for the occaisional sporting event, I am artistic and inventive and love gardening and have been know to bouts of baking a bit compulsively. Yea, there's more but if you got this far and you're still reading and curious you'll have to ask, otherwise it'd be just as well to simply publish my autobiography in this here small box for your reading pleasure and just skip the whole dating thing. :)Addendum: I am flattered by the many responses I have gotten in my first 2 days here. I don't know if it because I am brand new and it will begin to drop off after a bit, however I do try to respond to most even if I am not interested. Please don't be offended, I have spent time thinking and have a pretty good idea of what I want in someone I will choose to spend time with. Days may be long, but life is short and I see no point in wasting anyone's time. I have a few criteria that are general reasons I will not date someone- If you are closer to my kids age than mine, thank you for stopping by, as a general rule I prefer to date a bit older, next you don't have to be a rocket scientist but you have to know something about something, be able to write an intelligable note (perfection is not necessary) and hold a conversation, one that goes back and forth, don't expect me to do all the work, I am a woman that wants to be wooed, (yes, I am so worth it), I have many interests, hopefully so do you so we will have plenty to talk about and you should like to do something I do or vice versa, SO, if you have nothing to say please go to the library (is that harsh? I hope not it's just that is the appropriate place to be quiet, not on a date ) Next I want to be able to see your face, your stuff is nice, so is your dog and your home is beautiful, I know those pictures are meant to say things about you, but the picture of you should show your face clearly and should be recent, and oh yes you look great in your sunglasses but I want to see your eyes. As a sidenote, smile! You are here to find a date not get a part in the next serious guy movie. PS. Sports are ok, like I said I will watch on occasion, but if you're into sports and only sports I am not you gal either. Sports is what I see as a great excuse for you to have your time and me to have mine but I prefer not to spend a date that way. Lastly I am a 42 year old woman, with a real 42 year old woman's body. I have had 2 children so let's be real. I have curves, some in the right places and some not so much. I will not ask you if I look fat in this outfit, I am generally pretty comfortable in my own skin, but if physical perfection is important to you then you need to hop off the bus gus. Oh yea, and anything too forward or freaky fetish stuff should be saved. Sex is important in relationships, note: in relationships, not in a weird first hi I'm so-n-so note. Thank you for you patience, please carry on4 month Update: I no longer try to respond to most, it's too much to do, I am a busy girl. It gets exhausting to keep explaining things over and over. Convincing someone, no, really you're not my type. Sorry. Not trying to be mean...so If I don't respond you haven't caught my intrest or you don't meet the criteria. It is hard to reject someone, no one wants to do that. So yea, sometimes it is easier to say nothing. Some of you write the nicest things too, which makes it even harder. But that is just how it is, sometimes we just don't feel it. So if I don't respond, thank you for your note, I am always flattered. This is not an easy way to meet someone, feels unnatural and backwards. Also if you ask for my number and I give it to you, call me, don't text me. If the phone conversation goes ok then maybe we can text. Finally, I do this all on my phone so I cannot do the online chat thing, so don't be offended when I don't respond. ;) This first date box is kinda silly, because we all just want to look at a person face to face, see if they are still attractive (do they really look like the picture that attracted you) find out if there is mutual chemistry and does this individual have anything of interest to contribute or is sitting with them a tortuous strained affair. It's anyone's guess folks, this is afterall internet dating...so whatever it takes to relax and be yourself

Looking for: man. In age: 38-48
I love life and try to live each day to the fullest. I love to laugh and spend time with family and friends. You will catch me after church on Sundays during football season glued to the TV watching the Titans play.I can't live without my Faith, family, friends, football, Diet Dr Pepper and chocolate.I love country music, riding bikes, playing tennis, reading, the beach, hot water, my convertible, and the color purple!My profile says my body type is average. It gave me an option for thin but I'm definitely not thin, an option for athletic, nope that's not really me either, all though I like to work out just not by myself. It also gave me an option for a few extra pounds, I mean come on, don't most people have a few extra pounds they want to lose or even gain. And then it gave me an option for Big & Tall/BBW. Really? What does BBW mean anyway? And at 5'***, yes I put that 1/2" in there, I am definitely not Big & Tall. So that left me with the choice of average. So I guess you could say I lied to you. I am by no means an average body type. I don't think I would like to be in that category anyway because I'm happy (for the most part except those few extra pounds lol) with my body. So I will just leave it at I am very curvy. Did that scare you away? Well, it should have. ;)One fact about me...,.I don't need a man. Now, let me explain that. I have never been married so I have pretty much been on my own most of my life. Yes, I have dated but I have never lived with anyone. So that means I'm very independent. I own my house (and have for the last 15 years), I have a great car, a wonderful job that I love and I think I have a good head on my shoulders. I don't have any debt or baggage. I'm not into drama and not looking for any drama. I don't fight, disagree maybe, but that's it. We are all adults so let's talk about what's wrong, kiss and make up because that's the fun part ;) and then move on. Life is too short to dwell on the little stuff. I don't hold grudges and I hate to clean. So back to my original point. I don't need a man because I can definitely take care of myself. However, I WANT a man. I want to love and feel loved. I want to spoil my man and be spoiled by him. I want to wake up everyday anticipating a new day with him. I don't want to take him for granted and I want to encourage him to be the man he wants to be. I want to be his best friend and for him to know that he is special and I only have eyes for him. I want him to know that when he looks at me across a room, that I get goosebumps just from that look. And that when I wake up, I can't wait to finally see him again, to talk to him, to touch him, and to just be with him.'Tis better to have loved and lost Than never to have loved at all....TennysonP.S. Guys we don't want to see just one picture taken years ago. We don't want to see pictures of your dog or car. We want to see pictures of you. It is not all about physical appearances but let's be honest, there has to be some kind of attraction on both parts to continue communication. Anywhere we can talk and get to know each other better to see if we want to continue talking.

Woman. 43 years old. Zodiac sign: Scorpio.
Looking for: man. In age: 40-50
I am an easy going, free spirited woman who enjoys a variety of activities. I spend most of my time working & going to the gym. I recognize that this makes me sound busy & I am...I work hard during the week & play hard on the weekends. I am happy to stay home or go out w/ friends. I most enjoy being outdoors whether it be going for a walk, laying out in the sun, bike riding, roller blading or boating. I enjoy the current top 40 type music. I also love dogs, but I can't own one b/c I'm not home enough :( I am a very honest person whose been known to tell it like it is and I'm very true to my friends & partners. I don't tolerate liars or people who don't follow through on what they say they're going to do. I want someone who is fun, loyal, ambitious & not afraid to be themselves...like me :) Although I am independent & have always taken care of myself, it would be nice to find someone where I wasn't the bread winner in the relationship... I would want our first date to be casual -- just keep it simple & do what makes us happy :)
