Looking for: man. In age: 37-47
Life is good. It’s really good. There’s just one component missing. The perfect guy. Perfect *for me*, anyway… Perfection in general is boring and overrated. (Handsome, witty, sweet and a gentleman, though? Not overrated.:)Here’s the thing though… A lot of guys’ meetville profiles mention that they want someone who can “keep up” with them, and I am not looking for someone to keep up with or to keep up with me. I have a lot going on already. In addition to working quite a bit, we live in an incredible city; it’s hard not to want to be out exploring it every second of the day! Sporting events, the lakefront, restaurants, bars, museums… I’m looking to meet someone who will give me a reason to slow things down a bit. It would be super to meet someone who also has a great life and who will invite me to be a part of it and support whatever he’s into, but we don't have to share every interest or be out every night of the week together.… Fantastic! I’ll go out for wine night with the girls or stay in and read a book (dare I dream) and we’ll both be happy. But ideally, somewhere in the middle we’ll decide to stay in together and we’ll realize we don’t need to be “out and about” all the time to enjoy life in this city. Looking for a balance.I’m pretty well over the bar scene and 30, 40 and 50-something guys who are re-living college. Unfortunately that’s what my dating pool seems to have dwindled to but I am hopeful and optimistic that there is at least one guy left in the city who has grown up in lifestyle but isn’t afraid of getting a little silly with the right girl.Some additional facts you may or may not find useful:- I ditched my car about a year ago and am loving car-free life, so if you live outside the range of the CTA it could be tricky.-Though I am educated and have built a nice career and lifestyle for myself, I come from a very blue collar background downstate and carry those values with me. I like nice things, but I like great experiences more. - I have a cat.- I can be a bit of a contradiction. I've run with the bulls and jumped out of a perfectly good airplane, but spiders terrify me and I just got a new road bike that I refuse to put clipless pedals on because I'm afraid of falling off.-Bonus clue for those who actually read profiles: *** me must be ***characters or more in order to go through. That's about two standard sentences. If you're the guy, a couple sentences to make a good impression should be no problem.There is a lot more I could say about myself, but wouldn't it be more fun to sort it out over drinks or a walk through the zoo?Excellent. Good talk Russ. Drinks and a board game (Guthries!)? Wine tasting? A walk on the lakefront? The zoo? I'm pretty basic and am easily entertained in the right company. :)p.s. If I favorite you, it's not code for anything. It just means I'm interested but can't *** that particular moment.

Hi there. I am new here so be gentle. 1st and foremost I am a mom to two amazing kids. I have a boy and girl and they are still young. If you don't like kids pass on me.I like to stay fit. I workout, hike, and love yoga! I try to do yoga at least 4 days a week. I would love to find someone that would be willing to come with me. I love to cook, dine out, go to concerts...oh and I love country:)I love my shows which include, The Walking Dead, True Blood, Shamless, and Game of Thrones. I am not looking for just a hook up. I am looking for someone to spend my time with and enjoy similar interests. I stay away from drama, so if you have some stay away!I am in a transition right now professionally. I just started my own insurance business and I am driven to succeed. A perfect first date would be something simple like meeting for coffee or a lite snack. I love comedy shows so maybe we could to a comedy club.

I'm new to this online dating and have some doubts, but I figured I would give it a try. I'm down to earth, I keep it simple and have an open-mind. I place value on the important things like my family and don't worry about the little things beyond my control.I don't pretend to be anything I'm not. I value honesty. Fair warning if you don't want a truthful answer then its probably best not to ask. If you are looking for perfection then you should probably keep looking. I try to live a healthy lifestyle by making better food choices, but not extreme I still like other less than healthy choices....of course I'm still a sucker for chocolate. I workout regularly. I'm healthy and happy with myself as I am, but that doesn't mean I don't try to improve.I am a single mother and my children live with me. My children are my priority and I treasure my time with them, but I do make time for myself and will for someone special. I am not here looking for someone to take care of them. I have every aspect of their needs and lives covered, but if anything lasting was to develop you would need to be good with children.I'm not desperate or just looking for hook ups. I don't need a man in my life to survive. If I have someone in my life it is because I want them in it.I am just as comfortable wearing a dress and heels as I am wearing a t-shirt, jeans, and boots. I guess you could say I'm a country girl that can fit into the city too. I own and ride my own motorcycles, but still love climbing on to the back of one. I'm just as satisfied with going out as I am staying in. I love the outdoors especially around water. I'm looking for someone who is kind, loving and is a gentleman.
