Looking for: man. In age: 37-47
I'm a spontaneous person, always ready for a night on the town or even a quite evening at home with good company. I'm far from shallow and I like to surround myself with good people. I'm also a very independent person and would have to meet someone that respects that. I'm looking for someone with a GREAT sense of humor. If you don't have that then FORGET IT! Someone that puts a smile on my face when I think of them. I don't have a problem finding dates, I guess I just have a problem finding honest ones.

So...I'm not really sure how many times I've been on meetville....(I kind of lost count). It is up to you to decide if it has anything to do with me or not after reading my short (yet entertaining) novel, so sit back, relax, have a glass of wine, and cuddle up to this, at times, heart warming (but equally disturbing) account of non-fiction literary genius....AKA: My Dating Life***I should warn you, however, that this tale is not meant for the weak of heart. On the contrary, I am sharing my experiences of internet dating with you in an effort to deter those of you whose intentions are to repeat any of the following scenarios that I have, sadly, encountered through internet dating.Let's just get one thing straight first: I realize that when I decide to engage in internet dating, chances are, I'm not the only girl you're seeing/talking to. This is perfectly fine, and even socially acceptable....but only to a point. Once we decide to engage in sexual congress or "take it to the smush room", I expect monogamy. ..what I'm saying is that once we are intimate, you cease to be intimate with other women. As ridiculous as it may sound to some of you, I do have to spell it out for the guy in the back row who wasn't paying attention...LOL. If you are the kind of guy who still defines his manhood by "quantity" versus "quality", then please keep moving on and do not message me. I am quality, and will not accept being one of your minions. By the way, "wants to date but nothing serious" is just a nice way of saying, "I want to have sex with you and never call you again..." So if that's your "intent", then no thanks..The first few people I met on this site weren't even the same people who were in the pictures. This is equally as disturbing as back row guy....Why can't you people just be the same people in the pictures???? The gig will be up at one point or another! Okay, true story: so, my sister went on another dating site and met up with a guy who she was talking to for a couple of weeks and dude shows up to their first date in a wheelchair!! First off, I have no problem with folks in a wheelchair. What I DO have a problem with is the lack of disclosure...the bait and switch...just don't do this gentlemen. For this reason, I will not text incessantly with you for days and weeks without TALKING on the phone. What's so wrong with talking anyways? I guess it can be terrifying to some without a personality, but part of physical attraction is chemistry and I can tell more about how this relationship will go by a conversation. Plus, if you only text me and you can't have a conversation, I will be convinced you are either married or live with your girlfriend....which is a perfect segue to my next no-no....The next string of guys I met off meetville all had girlfriends aka that one "CRAZY EX" that just "won't go away". C'mon fellas...women don't cling unless they're still getting the ding-a-ling. If you have a crazy ex or baby mama, this is not going to work. I have dated guys from meetville (all unbeknownst to me) who are: married with a 7 month pregnant wife, living with their girlfriend who's "just a friend"...believe me, I've heard every excuse imaginable. So at this point, your thoughts are that I'm "jaded...cynical....bitter". No, not really. If I were any of those things, I wouldn't be giving this internet dating malarkey another chance.- Consequently, I am here...on meetville...hoping for a different result than my former experiences. I would be lying if I said I take any of this too seriously, but you have to admit, it did make for an entertaining read :) To be honest, I have a daughter. She is 8, totally awesome, and the two of us deserve the world. In honor of her, I will not tolerate any more douche bags with insecurity issues (being that insecurity is the root of seeking quantity vs. quality). I am a very stable woman. I have been a single mother for 8 years. I have an amazing job, I provide for my daughter and myself, so I don't "need" a man, I just want one. I am at the highest point in Maslow's heirarchy of needs where I'm ready for self-actualization (although my "sexual intimacy" category could use some cultivating as of late). If there is a guy out there for me....awesome! If I have to do this life alone....okay, whatever, not a big deal! Do not mistake my aloof attitude for lack of want or passion...:) I'm not really sure why I just totally went ghetto right there, but hey! decent prose, right? :)) So will the real slim (not shady) please stand up?? :***last thing :***I go to the gym constantly. One could argue that I have OCGD...obsessive compulsive gym disorder. I am attracted to guys who are as passionate about the gym as I am. Just going to the gym is not enough for me.....I like men who can lift heavier weight than I can....so no, spin class and cross fit do not count. And if you ride your bike down busy streets with your tight spandex and retarded helmet, chances are, I have chucked something out the window in an effort to teach you a lesson at some point. They have bike paths for you people!!! Use them!!! LOL. Okay, I am done...... My best response to this is very simple. I've said it before and I'll say it again: We meet at the airport...no bags, oh no, we aren't going anywhere....we just sit at the airport bar and "people watch". I used to be a flight attendant, so trust me, this is amazing.e. where they're going, where they've been, why are they screaming into their Star Trek blue tooth device at this invisible, omniscient boss so intensely....are they really THAT important? Is it really necessary to be screaming like that? The best is when they drop their bag or laptop...then they have to bend down and furiously stuff all the papers into their leather bonded briefcase, sweat pouring from their hairline to their furrowed brow....somehow, when we're buzzed, their bad day just became our best day...Now THAT is true comedy....LOLOLOL

I am someone who loves to open a bottle of wine with friends, with a possible game night on the agenda or going to see a live music show or maybe go out for some nice local brews. Friends and family are important to me. I'm a born and raised Vancouverite so I have a pretty solid network. I'm not the run off to whistler every weekend type, more the survive the rain and soak in the rays, gelato on the drive, live and breath the ocean air, mountain views type. This is my home. I have traveled a fair bit and experienced many different countries and cultures...Fingers crossed more to come.I like the idea of trying to make a difference in the world around us. Whether it is through helping friends or something on a more globally minded front...I try. On a less serious note I'm a big culture nerd. I love love love movies and music.; I have a variety of "likes" when it comes to entertainment.Reading is a big passion of mine. I love fiction with a smattering of mystery and autobiography. Recent books: anything and everything I'm a verbivore (The hunger games) .... my parents are librarians enough said.I have reached the point were I am ready to start a serious relationship. I myself work hard but think life is for enjoying so making time for the occasional weekend away or a night on the town is an important release. It would be great to enjoy this with a partner. Kids are something I very much want. Though I'm not rushing out to have a baby with just anyone, it's important for me to be with someone that shares this wish.Over all I am a easy going happy light hearted person I love my friends and am looking for someone to share/build a life with. Assuming we have already gotten to know each other....Something that involves some drinks, food and an activity. The Art gallery? Live music? Some alone time, some public time... We can mix and match as suits our needs.I am happy to do almost anything its the company that makes the night.
