About Me

I would think that a lot of people would find this part of the profile process very difficult. Writing about oneself, honestly and objectively can be a daunting process. However, as I am a bit narcissistic, I am not one of those people. Here goes (be prepared, I tend to talk in bullet points): I am a 48-year-old, professional woman of Italian decent. I have a college education (B.A. in Communications and English). I am a voracious writer and rarely go anywhere without a journal and a book. I am a Certified Meeting and Event Planner/Marketing Director and contract out to mainly Fortune ***companies. I am as comfortable in a business suit as I am in my overalls. I made a commitment at the beginning of this year to “Create something cool every day” (ie; gardening, creating garden art, writing,creating new recipes) and have been 98% successful with that goal. I'm not a big fan of nightclubs but love live music. I would rather melt into your arms and dance than bump into others. I like the occasional outdoor activity but don't fish or hunt, but I don't care if you do. I would rather sit by a fire, read or write, or snuggle up next to you and just be. If I say I love you, I will mean it. If I say I'm sorry, I will also mean it. I expect the same. As I said in my headline, I think words are sexy. I'm just as likely to send you love letters filled with warmth and passion as I am a suggestive *** innuendo. I do a lot of different types of things around the cities. I would hope that you do too. As my mom always said, "You don't have to like it, you just have to try it." I am independent and self-sufficient (I can do basic car maintenance and minor plumbing repairs) but would welcome your help. I'm looking for a gentleman (I've kind of forgot what you fellas look like)who isn't afraid of my strengths and can off-set my weaknesses. I will do the same for you. I can take care of myself but am better as a team. You also have to not be afraid to tell me when I'm being nuts (because I can be). With regards to what I’m looking for, I think it might be easier to indicate what I’m not looking for but I think that would put an negative slant on this little biography and I try to always be a positive person. I’m looking for someone I can talk to. Someone with whom I can be a partner and a friend, as well as a lover. And, as much as I am looking for someone who is able to listen to and respect me, it is equally as important to me that he would offer honest advice and encouragement. We don’t have to agree on everything, but we DO have to respect each other’s opinions. I’m open to all physical types. It is more important to me that you are comfortable in your own skin. That being said, I am not a big fan of facial hair (although it is not a deal breaker). Education or profession aren’t as important to me as someone who is always searching for knowledge. Whether that is learning the history of the widget, how to re-wire a lamp or how to make great curry (all of which I know). I need someone who equally comfortable at a business dinner with me or at a coffee shop in Uptown. I love deeply and passionately. I know I might get hurt, but it is the only way in which to live completely. I need someone who isn't afraid of public or private displays of affection. Okay, now....sports. First and foremost, I LOVE football. Baseball I like to see live, hockey I like to see live and everything else I mostly tolerate (and am happy to do so - I can easily read or write while you are watching any one of the aforementioned events on television). I like golf and have played on many occasions. However, I am not good at it (I lift my head too soon) and will take lessons when I have the time. You should too. There are SO many delightful restaurants, shops, parks tucked away all over the cities. I love hardware stores. I can't explain why. Perhaps its because I love to build things. I have a storage unit full of stuff acquired from Goodwill, salvage shops, junkyards or the side of the road. Lest you think I am a hoarder, please note that it is well organized and that each item is in the process of becoming something else. To that point, I also love power tools and own my own.I am smart, funny and confident (and clearly modest) but like everyone else, have moments of doubt and insecurity. These are the times that will define our relationship. Sometimes I will need your help and advice and other times you won't be able to do anything but hold my hand. You need to be okay with both scenarios. I fight passionately (but fairly) and make up the same way. You won't need to guess with me. I will tell you what I mean, what I want and what I need. You will need to do the same and be comfortable with doing so.Okay, I guess that's it for now. Its your move.Cheers!P.S. One last thing...bobble-heads crack me up! Our first date will be casual and public. Perhaps a drink in a quiet bar or a coffee in raucous cafe. Either way, before we get to that, we will get to know each other on line. Work out the bumps (as it were)and make sure we have enough in common to take that next step. As I've said...words are sexy.

    I am very outgoing and honest, sometimes to a fault. I love the outdoors, music and movies. I can get to know anyone in 5 minutes and know their life stories and ambitions. I am a very silly person who LOVES to laugh. The person I am looking for is funny and easy goingand responsible. I do not like drama, jealousy or disception. I am looking for someone to get to know, have fun, go to a movie and maybe dinner. Life is too short to sit at home and be bored. Let's have fun! LOTS OF LAUGHTER AND SMILING

    About Me:I am secure, and happy with myself, but life is meant for 2! :-) I'm Independant, honest, loyal and have a great sense of humor, I'm nuturing but competitive, peaceful but entergetic. I love staying up late. I almost always sleep in on weekends. I definitely have an adventurous streak, whether it's trying out an exotic recipe in the kitchen or traveling. Family and friends are very important to me. I have a close realtionship with my kids, parents and my brother. One of my greatest assets is speaking to people. It's just something that comes natural. I'm pretty much a social type person. No introverts, please. Scarcasm is a spice of life, so bring it on. I think this brings spice to a relationship. I do try and live a healthy lifestyle by eating right and going to the gym. This doens't mean that I wont eat what I want but in moderation and I don't live at the gym either. I have a high maintenance look with a down-to-earth attitude, values and personality. I've learned that respect is essential. Perfection is impossible. Better to be single than to be in a relationship that you know isn't working and despite all the work you have put into it, you have to let it go. I've learned to don't say things I'll regret because you can't take it back. It's easier to forgive than to forget. You must expose yourself emotionally it's the only way to reap love's greatest rewards. Who I am looking for: I love funny guys who can hold me spellbound with a story or make me laugh until I cry. We push each other to be the greatest people we can be. We bolster each other's egos and leave short thoughtful love messaes for each other, just because. A man that is somewhere between a thrill-seeker and a couch potato and will laugh when I say something unintentionally stupid. Someone who doesn't mind sharing in the household chores. Someone who doesn't mind if I lean on your shoulder a few minutes or who minds holding me at night. I do volunteer work, so I hope to meet someone with that same heart. I want someone that can discuss the world around him and that is looking more than just a date .No Pressure! Let's just relax...... become friends and get to know each other and see what happns.I want a great guy that who will not only want to introduce me to new things, but will also like to try some adventures that are new to both of us. He will not ony put up with my wacky moods, but he may even think they are cute (you don't have to admit this). The man I want to meet is confident and self assured, but isn't with an over-inflated ego. I am looking for a guy who can keep me on my toes both when it comes to intellect and energy. There is nothing that I won't do to support the people I care about, but If I think you are wrong I will tell you and hope that you would do the same for me. Are you the type of man that will make me feel safe and warm? Have you made it all the way to the end of my profile? Then what are you waiting for? drop me a line and let's plan our next adventure. If you're comfortable in your own skin, have a strong sense of self and aren't araid to expose your flaws, I'm sure we'll get along just fine. If I like you....... Can I keep you?What's your story? What are your greatest pet-peeves and what makes you weak in your knees from joy and happiness? I want to be able to look into your eyes and see the chemistry between us while we have dinner and talk about our 2nd date.
