About Me

Hello! I am definitely looking for a relationship, but I'd also love to just make friends, too! I love to be near the ocean, whether that means on the beach collecting shells or seaglass, swimming/snorkeling, or boating (sailing or kayaking are my favorites). My job lets me be near the ocean quite frequently, so that's a good perk. I finished graduate school (biological oceanography) last January and now I'm a post doc. I like research, but I really hope to have a career that lets me teach, possibly at a liberal arts college. I love ocean science and I think the best part is watching students discover how cool marine organisms are! Yes, I am a nerd, but very proud of it! My preference for weekends would be to spend time with friends or family. Game nights are one of my favorite activities for staying in! My favorite game is Ticket to Ride, but I really enjoy many board games. If I'm going out, I like all kinds of live music performances, from classical to folk, contra dancing, theater, movies, bowling. I don't really like going to bars - I find them to be too loud to have a good conversation and I'd rather buy some wine or a 6 pack and hang out at a friend's house. I do enjoy going out to restaurants, but I also like cooking at home, especially when friends come over! I also like to go on hikes and walks.I am unique because I come with a large tool set. My dad raised me to be able to do maintainance around a home. I am very handy - I have built a bed, a bookshelf, and a very special planter for my mom, among others. I have refinished two tables and am currently working on a bookshelf. I was recently given an beautiful antique apothecary chest and I'm trying to figure out the best way to restore it. I also have a reasonable amount of experience with light electrical work and plumbing. I don't know a lot of current pop music because I tend to listen to NPR *** music stations on the radio. I have a very broad music collection, but I tend to get into moods where I listen to one group or genre a lot for a while and then switch to another group or genre for a while. I come off as being more reserved than I actually am. People are often surprised when they get to know me. It's probably because I am rather shy with new people.I love reading, but I find I don't have a lot of time to read. ***, I listen to audiobooks during my commute and while doing lab work. Yes, I know he is a bigot and has said really awful things. I completely disagree with those viewpoints, but I find his writing to be very sensitive and caring, not at all preachy or hateful. It's a little hard for me to reconcile those differences!I am very liberal, both politically and socially. I could probably be in a relationship with someone who is fiscally conservative, but I think I would find it hard to be with someone who is socially conservative.I have two lovely cats, but that is my limit! I think more than two leads down a slippery slope to cat lady. Two cats can keep each other company while I'm at work! I think a good first date would be going out for coffee or dinner and then bowling. I wouldn't necessarily want to go to a movie or concert of a first date because you don't get the opportunity to get to know each other.My ideal day-long date (but not for a first date) would be to start by kayaking to an island where we'd have a picnic lunch and walk around for a while and then paddle some more. Once back on land, we'd go out for dinner (I love Indian food!), followed by a local concert. Then we'd head home!

    I am a very genuine girl looking for friendship and longevity. I am not looking for a cpl dates or a one night stand so please dont message me if that is what your looking for. I am Looking for something with someone who can make me laugh and can appreciate what I bring to the table. I want a buddy who makes me a better person. I recently got a membership for bootcamp fitness, im not at all shallow or currently in as good of shape as I want to be but i want someone who will challenge me physically and mentally. Please dont be a couch potatoe. I would love to meet someone that loves to be outside and be active. Someone spontaneous. Im currently up to a mile lol. Ill get there:-) I like when I can be put in my place but not condescending. I can be fiesty at times:-) I try to always be respectful and to see someone elses perspective and I would like the same in return. I'm a lot of fun and am very silly at times. Most of my friends just think I'm weird:-) I have only found one person in my life that I feel truly understands my sense of humor. I absolutely love my job and the company I work for. Definitely am blessed! Im a very self aware person and try my hardest to see the good in things I try to not complain about things and really want to find someone who is similar. Im not to sure what to expect from this site but believe you get back what you put out. I don't really know what to put here so if you have questions then ask:-) I don't really care...let's discuss it :-)

    I like to play softball/slow pitch and enjoy heading up to the mt. during the winter. I'm not looking to jump into a relationship, just dating. If you want to impress me, be a gentleman and open a door for me :) I don't want to be waited on ***. I'm not into a one night stand and won't put out on the first date. So if that's what u want I'm not the girl for ya. I enjoy movies, and my friends are very important to me. I know what I'm looking for in a man. If you have a nice smile, friendly and social, say hi ;) Dinner, movie, or bevy, whatever seems like a good idea.

    Looking for: man. In age: 26-36

    I'm just a girl, looking for a boy. He must be interesting, kind and honest. I like to win at any sport at any cost (I'm not above pantsing, pants-ing? someone...lol). I'm a nurse who works quite a bit, but I'm looking for a good excuse to quit one of my jobs. Alright, so after testing out the waters, I'm ready to jump in!- although I travel to TO quite a bit to visit family and friends. I play volleyball, played in University then a year of pro in Portugal. I also love hockey and still play the occasional pickup game. I'm ambitious to a fault - I have 8 years of post-secondary education (I love school!!) and currently have 3 jobs - hence online dating. I just like to be busy and have new experiences. I have one cat even though I'm more of a dog person, but I tried to make my cat a dog with some success, her favorite game is fetch. I became a nurse because to me it's the perfect combination of human science and compassion for others. I say what's on my mind and am honest about that bad new haircut (ill try to say it in the nicest way possible), and I expect the same in return. Most importantly, I'm a giant goof and love to joke around and laugh (especially at myself). Now what I'm looking for.... Someone who will open my eyes to new adventures and experiences. That stuff I said at the beginning too. Honesty, mutual respect and understanding - all the good stuff that makes a relationship.If there are typos, please blame my iPad...lol
