About Me

I am shy, but if you can get past that I'm friendly and loyal.I am a down-home, country-at-heart girl, but I love an excuse to get dressed up. I guess what I mean by this is that I prefer jeans and tank tops, but I enjoy the opportunity to don a fancy dress, heels, and put on some makeup.I am a modern girl, but I wish that etiquette rules were still obeyed. Having generally accepted guidelines for behavior in social situations is something that appeals to me. I find it lamentable that ours is a society of catch-as-catch-can. Rudeness is unacceptable.I will be honest with you. If I say I'm going to call you, it's because I'm going to call you. If we go out and I say I had a nice time, it's because I had a nice time. I expect the same in return.I'm a grammar nut. I graduated with a Bachelor of Science in English Language and Literature. Words are something that I truly enjoy. The downside to that is that one of my pet peeves is grammar and spelling errors, so maybe run your messages through spellcheck before you send them. I recently transitioned from working in a factory to working in the headquarters of a big corporation. It's been a big change for my life, but in the best possible way. It is not my dream job, but I am thankful for the opportunity to get my foot in the door. I have few hobbies, but they all involve being outside. I enjoy vegetable gardening, cooking, camping, and fishing.I have a 10'x20' vegetable garden in my back yard where I grow heirloom vegetables from seed. I take immense pleasure from seeing something start from practically nothing.I am a grill gal--it's my favorite way to cook! My favorite meal to cook on the grill is a bacon-I am a rustic camper, which means I bring in everything I'll need. No running water, electrical hook-ups, or trailers for me. It's whatever you can carry!I fish, but mainly for panfish. I've never had anyone who could take me out fishing for game fish. My favorite books have some sort of fantasy element to them and are typically series. --The Emberverse series by S. M.-- K. Rowling -Movies are pretty hit and miss for me. I will not watch horror movies though.My taste in television is varied. There are usually only a few shows I watch each season.I'm into: -Justified -Sons of Anarchy -Downton Abbey -Girls -True Blood -The Newsroom -Boardwalk Empire -Game of Thrones -Mad Men -The Walking Dead --Body of Proof -Grey's Anatomy -Supernatural -Glee -Bones -Magic City -The White QueenPlus a bunch of stuff that isn't on the air anymore, like: -United States of Tara -Big Love -Hung -Sex and the CityMusic tastes are all over the board. I like pretty much anything that isn't really heavy screamer music. I just can't get into that stuff.I like food. Nothing too extreme, but I can usually be persuaded to try something. My cooking tends towards Italian. I am a foodie, through and through. I like American, Italian, steakhouses, and sushi. I prefer independent restaurants to chains. I dig casual restaurants all the way up to formal attire required places; I like the casual atmosphere of a microbrewery, but love the feeling of being dressed up as well. I'm looking for someone of character. I want someone who will do what is right over what is easy. I want someone with a solid work ethic, someone who isn't afraid of work, but knows how to have a good time, too. I'm willing to put some effort in on my end, but I have to know that you're willing to do the same.

    Woman. 29 years old. Zodiac sign: Aquarius.

    Looking for: man. In age: 26-36

    Let's get straight to the point. I am a single mom looking for love & a role model for my son. He is almost 2 and the highlight of my day. Unfortunately his father is not involved so I'm all on my own. Being in this position I've had to move back in with my parents and go back to bartending. I am grateful everyday for my family, without them who knows where I would be. With that being said, I don't have a lot of free time that doesn't involve my son. Hence the reason I'm trying online dating. I love country music, concerts, WHITESOX baseball, all sporting events, volleyball, crossfit, being active, traveling, movies, wine & dining, shopping & so on.. If you ask anyone I work with they would say I'm the mom of the group and/or the goof ball. I like to have fun & be silly at the same time I tend to be a perfectionist (at work, not at home. lol). I have a big group of friends who are actively involved in my life as well. I'm not kidding when I say I bring my son everywhere. He is a big hit amongst my friends & family ;-) I have a BAS which I aquired in ***. I worked in event planning for a number of years. I try and go downtown as much as I can with or without my son.... Now that all the cards are on the table & you're still interested, do you have any questions for me? Oh one last thing... I LOVE LAFFY TAFFY JOKES. "What do sheep do when they are dirty? .. They take a baaaaaaaath! - gets me every time! Dave & Busters & Drinks! What's more fun than having a few drinks to calm the nerves and while enjoying a friendly competitive game of pop a shot?!?! Or if you're the intimate type I can do a delicious steak a nice glass of pinot noir :-)

    Woman. 26 years old. Zodiac sign: Virgo.

    Looking for: man. In age: 23-33

    I really hate talking about myself in things like this, so here's a little bit .... I am currently in college in hopes to eventually be a pediatric or neonatal nurse. I love kids, hence the reason I want to work with them! I have three younger siblings and two godchildren who are my world and I would do anything for them. Hope to one day (sooner than later) have children of my own. I do have a horrible habit and thats gambling! Italian food, Hip Hop music and Summer are a few of my other favorite things. My passion is to make others happy, whether it be by telling a joke, donating gifts on Christmas to families who cannot afford to buy them or writing a simple message to let that person know their loved. I am going to be 25 years old and feel like I should be married and starting my family, but I havent found the right person - seems all guys are ***holes, can you prove me wrong?I am a very outgoing and bubbly person, although its very easy to get on my bad side. I am very easy to get along with and love making new friends, but I do not tolerate liars or disrespectful people. I dislike guys who seek that perfect girl (looks wise) -mainly because I am not that! I do model, but that doesnt mean my body is great - I may keep in shape at times, but by no means is the gym or working out one of my favorite things to do :-) I'd rather find a guy who loves me for who I am and not what I look like - looks are an added bonus! Also, if your looking for a health nut/healthy eater, thats not me lol ... I am very picky when it comes to my foods (or is it just knowing what I like and dont like ;-))I appreciate when people take the time to get to me know before requesting to meet. I truly believe that in order to really find out if somethings going to work, that you know the person before meeting (what they like, dislike, their goals, etc). Plus, the waiting time between talking and meeting makes that first meet so much more special :-) I am not here looking for a "hook up" or things or things of that sort ... I am not that type of girl. So, if thats what you're seeking, please look elsewhere.Also, please know how to talk appropriately and spell correctly. *THINGS I'VE LEARNED LATELY* Memories are a treasure you should never let go of* Change is inevitable* Chocolate chip cookies taste better as dough* You should never wait to tell someone why you love them* Spring and fall are my favorite seasons* Friends don’t always get along* Smiles can make your day and frowns can break your day* The stars shine brighter when there is no moon* Everyone has something that makes their heart glad* Midnight laughing cleanses you* Sometimes it’s a good thing to stay up all night, when its with someone you love* Having fun with someone opens the door to friendship* Dogs eyes show their trust and love* College might not be what I imagine* Sometimes you have to let people go* There is a time for everything* Being challenged is a good thing* Heavens got to be something special*Some people are afraid to cry* Love always trusts, always hopes* Depends on the person. I definitely need a little while to get to know someone before meeting them. Would prefer to meet with a few friends ... or even better, how about six flags??
