About Me

Does this EVER get ANY easier? I am a Mom .... raising 2 daughters that take up a lot of my time.. I work, and travel from time to time for my job. In the past, dating was not very easy for me, however when I do have free time... I like to have plans to spend with that SPECIAL "ONE".I want to be VERY upfront and say that if you are on this site, to "prowl" and "score" I am NOT INTERESTED. IF you are NOT looking for an eventual SERIOUS LTR. Please do not waste either of our time. I HONESTLY want to spend the free time I have with someone who is looking towards the future. If you are still in LOVE with your ex... Married.... Newly Separated..... or just a Gigilo...I am not interested. I am in my 40's and KNOW what clicks for me and what does not. I prefer men that are over 5 foot 9, , call it "shallow";something" I won't compromise on. I do not like to be taller than the MAN I am with. Hey, honesty.....is FOREMOST!Some things that I have to be HONEST and put out there : I do not want to come across as negative.. but can we just be real and get to what we REALLY like and want, and don't?1: If you are not really interested in a committed future, however YOU have that in your profile, the only thing that says about you is that from the START you are DISHONEST..and that does not work for me.. A "relationship" can not begin when based on dishonesty.2: IF YOU SAY you are a NON SMOKER... I sure hope that you ARE... and BELIEVE me I will know and SMOKING is a DEAL BREAKER for me. I am a VERY honest person and that is a quality I take seriously. I will ALWAYS be honest....3: I am VERY attracted to a man with a great smile..it is the FIRST thing that I notice.... a SMILE says soo much about a person's inner soul.. IF you are not smiling in ANY of your photos, chances are you are not very happy and I like to surround myself with Happy People. So if I do not respond to your message if your pix looks like a nasty mug shot with a DEAD BLOODY animal or you are pointing a 12 gauge at me ... hmmm I will not be responding. I don't mean to sound harsh, but a SMILE is KEY! 4: I can RESPECT the profiles w/out photos because of your job etc.. HOWEVER... YOU MUST *** PHOTO or I WILL NOT RESPOND... If you think about it .... it is PRETTY CREEPY "messaging" a Person with NO FACE... and I WON't make an exception.... 5: Also , please spell check your profile and your messages..... or have someone do it for you....6: I am very interested in finding out a little bit about you .... BEFORE ANY numbers are exchanged..I DO NOT GIVE OUT MY NUMBER ... My daughters also "play on" or use my phone because I do not believe that a 10 year old "needs" a cell phone. I do not just hand out my number to have texts and photos sent to my phone.. call me OL' fashioned... HOWEVER, I feel that we have lost the intrique of the "courting or dating" stage.. I have an IM and there is a "chat" feature on this... and AT FIRST that is how I would like to communicate. ..they gave us the tools... let's USE them.... and take it from there... PLEASE DO NOT ask me to send you "THOSE PIX".... you don't even KNOW me..... ALL of these things WILL follow ... natural progression .. IF it is "right"...VERY VERY IMPORTANTI AM COMPLETELY SET ON THE "WANTS" that I have indicated... the WHAT I AM INTERESTED IN... WHAT I AM LOOKING FOR.... I am not on this site to collect profiles and spend hours reading through messages from men that do NOT match my criteria AT ALL... I know what kind of man SPARKS my interest.... and what kind INTERESTS me to find out more about. NOT to come across as "Shallow" but, if I say 5' 9" and you are 4' 11" I probably won't respond... I appreciate the compliments .. I honestly do.... But PLEASE can we be HONEST... we ALL know as grown adults WHAT makes us "tick" and what doesn't... that is just an example.... it goes for ALL my other preferences as well. THAT is why they ASk..... :)Now Guys, as many of the other "ladies" on this site may appreciate or LIKE a photo of you HALF NAKED "PUMPING IRON" at the GYM in the mirror or taking pix of yourself in a bathroom with a urinal in the background ...or ALL of your pix are only of your half naked body.....there are many , INCLUDING ME that think that is a BIT CREEPY... leave something to our imagination...AS FOR ME....I am fun , and witty, and like to do just about anything...at least once. I enjoy time with friends and I always make an effort to make people smile.. I am Passionate, and Fun and Honest. I like to put on my heels and go out to dinner or put my hair in a baseball cap and go to a Hockey game or other sporting event. I am attracted to TALLER Men (over 5 foot 9) because I have a CLOSET of shoes that I love to wear when I am not playing Mom's Taxi or in my cleats on the softball field.. I like to look my best when going out with My "man".. That may sound "shallow" but it is a "chemistry thing with me... If I tower over you when I have my jeans and heels on, I just can't feel the "chemistry" everyone has their "thing".I get messaged a LOT "WHY ARE YOU SINGLE"? Well.... I'm single simply because I have raised my girls alone, and they are and have been my focus.. I am not one of these women that puts their children second just to go on dates.. I honestly in 5 years have only been on 6 dates from this site. I love to smile and laugh, cook and garden. I like to spend time with friends and go out every so often.. I coach girls softball, and try to be as active in the kids school activities as my work schedule allows. I will ALWAYS give 110%......... ALWAYS... I think that meeting in a PUBLIC place is #1 MOST IMPORTANT...:) Maybe for a Drink somewhere to see if there is that "spark" then if we choose move onto to app's or dinner, or movie.. Then if there is that "CHEMISTRY" let the adventure begin! ohhh and IF your profile says NON SMOKER! PLEASEEEEEE make sure YOU are a TRUE NON SMOKER... because as GREAT as you are.. I can NOT/ will NOT date a SMOKER.. So PLEASE DON't LIE! that is an *** ender..

    Woman. 42 years old. Zodiac sign: Aries.

    Looking for: man. In age: 39-49

    Hi! I am a fun, honest, loyal, loving, ambitious, smart and energetic woman; (I am not conceited or full of myself and do not admire those who are. I know I needed to put in some initial adjectives that best describe me or things that my friends say to describe me ***you know what I mean! :) I make the most out of life! I have a successful career, but even more importantly I value family, friends, being kind and loyal, and yes, indeed, as you may suspect I think it is key to have someone in my life to share all of the important and fun things in life with! I am very busy with my precious 4 year old daughter and have an amazing time with her. There are so many things that I like to do, however it could all be taken to a whole new level with a passionite and amazing best friend and hopefully soul mate!!, Violent Femmes, lots of variety as I said...), I like keeping active, working out, doing fun things on the weekends, taking memorable vacations, and enjoying everyday. My friends say that I am very funny and great to be around, which is a big compliment to me! I used to live in Australia for about 2 years (went to college there for a year), and was lucky to be able to travel to: Thailand, France, Germany, as well as some other European countries. Love to travel when I can fit it in.I enjoy living close to the water/beach (very serene and peaceful). I like to cook, shop, entertain, have a BBQ (love grilling especially if someone else with man the grill!!)..at the beach or home, am often with family and friends, enjoy going out to restaurants, live music, casino, movies, and lots of other things, but also love to snuggle up at home to watch a good movie or just relax. More deeply I am kind, generous, thoughtful, loyal, and have good balance in my life which I think is so KEY for everyone to have. :)What I am "looking for": a man who is smart, kind, loving, chivalrous, helpful, fun to be around, loyal....someone who shares similiar values, values FAMILY, and a zest for life as I do. Someone who is preferably Catholic or Christian, someone who believes that communication, trust/loyalty, connection, love, FUN, partnership, intimacy, and passion are all key elements in an amazing relationship. What would I want to do for a first date? hmmmm? let's see: meet out for a quick coffee (I know everyone says that but now I know why - you want to determine that initial interest before investing lots of time!) or a drink and see how the connection is perhaps.....or meet for lunch. If you are like me, you can probably tell if there is atleast "chemistry" "possible connection" or interest within the first 5 seconds, then, IF there is, and only if there is that initial interest... of course we go from there and see if there is deeper interest and connection, which develops over time.
