I am a newly divorced nurse looking for someone who is nice, honest, loves life and doesn't play games. I have 2 cats, so you must love cats. I like to watch movies, play video games (like WII Lego games), go hiking on occasion, and go dancing at times. I like dance, techno, and spanish dance music. I love to travel and visit archaeological sites. Would like to meet for coffee first, then see if we like each other for a date.

I'd rather you hate me for the person that I am then ever love me for something that I'm not. What you see is what you get. I'm sarcastic and blunt but if you have the right attitude the two can go well together. I love to laugh, have great conversation, finding something a little out of the the status quo, ooh and watching my Vikes! Although I must admit I saw my first football game at a local sports bar here and no one was there! That's going to take some getting used to.I love people who are honest, direct and upfront and realize that doesn't mean disrespectful.What I want:I want to be the girl you want to take out in the daylight. The girl you want to hold hands with and be proud to say she's with you. A last minute call on a Friday night after you've had a few with a follow-up invitation to your place or mine afterwards does not interest me. I expect to meet someone who respects me at least as much as I respect myself. I'm talking to most of you that are in your 30's or 40's and don't think it's a stretch that the expectation is I'm treated better than a girl at a college frat party.I've been on here for a while. I'm at the point I want to date one person and see what happens. If we meet and don't click no harm no foul. I won't be your "there was nothing better to do so I called you" girl. Now I understand how these two statements can come across. I'm not a man hater or do I think that everyone on here is a bad person. Don't confuse my directness with some sort of dysfunction and send me a dissertation on what I really meant. I know what I meant and I typed what I meantShould we talk or not?If you aren't looking to meet someone with the potential of more then we won't click. Plenty of people on here looking for FWB/NSA If you are still married whether separated or not or just recently out of a relationship, I'm probably not going to be nurturing enough to build you back upIf you need someone who is available 7 days a week to hang out - well I like my girl timeDisclosure:I get these messages telling me how I should change my profile to be softer. I don't disagree. That being said the men on here know that girls get a lot of messages. Why not be up front in what your looking for so the person who sends the message is on the same page?Look at a profile before contacting someone. So I smoke when I drink. Yes I do drink. If you have a problem with either don't message me. I promise you that you will be so much happier in the long run actually reading about who you are contacting than spending 20 minutes of your life exchanging messages. Another thing to look at, body type. For god's sake don't message a girl who says she's not skinny and then tell her you want someone in great shape. Sorry for the rant. I am busy just like the rest of you and the one thing to test my paitence is *** this didn't scare too many people away. We could start out by playing air hockey. It is a wonderful thing to do when first meeting. Laid back, fun, competitive with only a few bruised knuckles. Then we can do dinner or coffee if the conversation is going well. I hate uncomfortable silence so tend to lean towards things that involve some activity. I don't believe the first time you meet someone it is a date. If we are being honest both people are checking the other one out to see if they were the person they thought they were. A first meeting is a potential new friend, a 2nd meeting determines if your still friends or if it's a date.

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.
