About Me

HI...I am new to the online dating scene but have been "window shopping" without a photo for quite some time now while trying to decide if I was truly willing to give this a shot. I was told by a few friends who are experienced online daters to be very specific in my description of who I am and of what I am looking for in a partner. This is daunting ! However, nothing ventured, nothing gained...so here it goes. Me: Outgoing, intelligent, active & attractive single mom who enjoys traveling, the beach, fishing, working out/yoga, hiking, cooking, most music, reading and watching sports (football, hockey, baseball & UFC.) I am honest (sometimes to a fault), loyal, and a good communicator-I like to talk but also know how to listen ;). Love animals! I value my family and my friendships, am spiritual /not overly religious, and have my priorities straight. I am independent, emotionally and financially stable and generally a very upbeat person. My life is full and happy - just missing that certain someone to share fun times with. I am not lonely, have lots of friends (and Im willing to share them with the right man)...just hopeful to find that special connection with a really great guy that can develop into a meaningful and lasting relationship. I am not marriage minded but monogamy is important to me....as are these qualities about YOU: An equally intelligent and attractive man who is authentic, honest, loyal, and possesses good communication skills. You are just as comfortable in a suit and tie as you are in shorts and flip flops. Your priorities are straight and you are willing to take the time needed to truly get to know someone. You are health conscious and take care with your body, mind and spirit. Marriage is not on your bucket list. You do not want to have children/more children. You have your own friends that you are willing to sometimes share with the right woman, and you are not a drug user/alcohol abuser. You are generally upbeat and emotionally and financially secure. You want to and can be monogamous in a meaningful realtionship. Your life is full and happy - just missing that certain someone to share fun times with. If you are just looking for a casual relationship or a good time, dont have photos to share, or not completely finished with your last relationship, please refrain from contacting me. Thanks for taking the time to read my profile and happy fishing! P.S. all photos are within the last year except for the curly hair . Please make sure your photos are recent too :) A first date should be simple - no pressure - coffee and chat.

    New to POF! Had never heard of this site until this evening when a conversation with another mother (after school *** my seven yr old son's Bitty Basketball game) revealed to me that she met her boyfriend of the past eight months on here! Who knew??? Not I! ;)My divorce is exactly one week old tomorrow, however, we were separated for the past ***yrs, so I am truly ready to begin the next & brightest chapter of my life! I feel so much lighter now that we've finally settled! We were married for ***yrs (together for ***& I am blessed to walk away from that life experience with three beautiful human beings (7, 9, 11... b/g/b) to call my own! They are my inspirations every day, & I carry gratitude in my heart for all the choices I made that brought me to this place in the here & now, with the magical result being their existence. :)I stepped away from my career in Advertising, Marketing, & Public Relations in the fashion industry to become an at-home mother when my eldest son was born. I have recently returned to the workforce, & am thrilled to show my children what my mother bestowed upon me... a role model of a strong, multi-faceted, & capable woman outside of the home, as well as in. I have re-discovered my love of travel over these past few years, as the visitation schedule has allowed me to venture off on long wknds to varied destinations that I hadn't seen for quite some time, as well as to some unchartered waters as well. I have spent time recently in locales such as St... The list makes me smile, as this has truly been one of the highpoints of the "; when I lost the ability to spend every day with my children due to our separation & divorce. I am now super comfortable with allowing my time away from them to be a re-charging for me, & an opportunity to discover the world again from a new perspective! I've learned to ski over the past couple of years, which is a sport that I always wanted to participate in, but never had the opportunity to take advantage of until now. I introduced my children to it as well, & we've had a blast with our new found excitement on the slopes! They have become the best travel companions on our escapes together & we've just booked our next vacay to Turks & Caicos for their Spring Break in March! Hang up the skis, it's time to SUP... another of our fave activities! :)So, what type of man would I consider dating? Who would I think to be an awesome guy to hang with? Here's what I find attractive beyond the exterior attributes...Show signs of intelligence, make me laugh, be a lover of children, have a passion for what you do, & do it well, be a man of the world, not just your couch... I believe therein those traits may lie a jumping off point for us. Photos alone, do not a person make, or increase the likelihood of a respectable match on here. They just show the outer shell, but nothing more. I am not here to date a photo of a handsome man, & I would hope you would feel the same. So, read past the photos to reasonably determine who I am before getting in touch. I'll do the same. Have faith, & let's enjoy the process, as we only get ONE beginning. Make it memorable! Cheers! :) After getting to know you via your profile, ***, & over the phone... An invitation for an evening out for****ails & conversation would be a perfect beginning, I think. :)

    I believe in living a good honest life. Hopefully see how this online dating goes. I would like a partner who likes to show affection, has a great sense of humor, for whom making time together a priority.

    I'm smart, funny, stable, responsible, reliable, loyal, healthy, slightly adventurous, well rounded and the old stand by down to earth :-) I became much happier once I realized being athletic doesn't mean having to hit a ball. I don't eat fast food, but I can’t go more than few days without ice cream. I own and can operate a drill and I've been known to bake a cake. I'm always doing something around the house. I'm not a "hot spots" kind of person...For drinks I prefer a place where you can actually talk. For vacation my first choice is always someplace where I can be active, hike, bike, kayak or of course lie on a beach. I workout 4xs a week so I can eat. I love the movies (no chick flicks please!!-loud...It would be nice to meet someone with similar interests (although it would be great if he would motivate me to do/learn different things), with the ability to make me laugh so hard I cry, who is intelligent, self-assured, strong, open minded, supportive, funny, attractive and athletic/active (lazy people make me crazy…) being handy with a hammer wouldn’t hurt!PS the cat is new. I'm not some crazy cat chick ;-)
