About Me

I'm just me. :) I am a full-time student and newly single mom to an amazingly bright 9-year old who is my world. I have been out of the dating loop for a long while and am kind of new to this, so I'm a little unsure about what to say here. But, I'm a quick learner. ;)After working in the service industry for ***years (because that is just what I've always done and what I know), I am now back in college and working towards getting a teaching degree with the hopes of eventually teaching middle school or high school History. I am a bit of a nerd at heart (okay... maybe a lot a bit... lol)... I am always reading or looking up new things trying to expand my base of useless knowledge. :)I love all kinds of music, but tend to steer clear of newer country or hardcore rap. I love discovering new music and going to concerts. I love movies of all kinds. I love reading (when I have time or can stay awake... LOL), especially historical fiction. See? Kind of geeky, but I like to think it's just part of my charm. ;)I cannot STAND games or players... be straightforward. I'm a big girl, I can take it. ;)I am opinionated, but open minded and tolerant. I am headstrong, but also capable of listening to reason. I am quirky and accepting of others quirks. Yes... I have very short hair, and no, I won't consider growing it out... it suits me. ;) I am straight-forward and honest, and expect the same from others.I am an open book... ask me anything and I'll give you an honest answer. I prefer a good beer over wine. I prefer watching a good movie over Nascar. I can have a conversation with anyone (I've never met a stranger... ), but can get a little shy when the conversation is focused on me (I blush easily). I know I may not be everybody's cup of tea, but that's fine by me... I don't even like tea. ;)What am looking for? Kindness, a killer sense of humor, confidence, HONESTY, good conversation, wit, intelligence, respectfulness, shared interests, individuality, an infectious laugh, a great smile, wicked chemistry and *butterflies*. :) Also, the choices given for what my "intent" may be are way too generic... I am looking to get to know someone and see where it goes. I'm not anti-relationship; I just don't want to jump into anything, but rather ease into it. In other words, no ***, just add me and I'm not just cruising this site for hook-up's. There's a middle ground, right? :)**Just as an aside to see who actually reads this, I don't really understand the whole "Meet Me" feature on here...;So and So wants to meet you"... it just seems less impersonal. :)Also, as I said, I am not looking for just a hook-up or a fling. So, all of you that are (ESPECIALLY you married creepers looking for a mistress), please just save the wear and tear on your keyboard and keep looking. I'd be game for just about anything that involved good conversation and laughing until my cheeks hurt.

    I'm a very laid back girl that loves to laugh and have a good time whether that's out with friends or just hanging around the house. I'm sarcastic, sometimes to a fault, but never intentionally mean. Life's just too short to be so serious...if you can't laugh at yourself we wouldn't be a good match. I'm up for anything once, twice if its fun. I love concerts, amusement parks, road trips to anywhere or nowhere, camping, anything on the water in the summer and bonfires in the winter. I have curves...a few more than is really necessary truth be told...so if you like your women skinny, I'm not the one you're looking for. With that said, I do enjoy working out and keeping healthy. I love meeting new people would enjoy having someone to share this crazy ride called life. I'm open to a relationship if the right person comes along but it's not a necessity at this point in my life.I guess this is where I get little more specific on my "type". I enjoy all kinds of people so listing one type of man is tough. I like ";. I know that's cliche but it's true. Men should be able to fix things, make a woman feel secure in unfamiliar surroundings and be able to lift the heavy stuff. :) I joke a LOT and love to laugh so a sense of humor is a must. There a few deal breakers for me though...no point wasting anyone's time right? I don't date black men. There's no need to message me how you could change my mind, tell me that I just don't know what I'm missing, etc. Rest assured that you are not the exception to this rule. You don't have to be 6'2" I also don't date pretty, prissy men. If you're wondering right now whether or not this describes you, it probably does. If you've never once had mud on your tires...we would not hit it off. You'll never know if you've run across the right person with endless text/chatting...face to face is the only way to feel that spark. Something casual and public, just drinks and good conversation.
