I am at a place in my life where I feel I could offer what I expect out of a relationship. I am finding that I am either pickier than I believed I was or there are less people out there now that I relate to. I bore easily in situations in which I don't feel inspired to grow and learn as a person. It's not a piece of cake to maintain my interest but i think it would come effortless to the right person. What do I offer? I am typically quite honest. I know when the truth hurts and when to hold my tongue but know that trust is key in any respectful relationship. I smile and laugh more than most. I am pretty low maintenance. Kids seem to love me and I think that comes from my playful spirit. I am open to new things. I have a lot of things I enjoy doing but I can usually have fun doing anything. Last but not least (though I am sure there are more) I work daily to grow as a person. Of course I am not perfect but I can admit when I am wrong and I do my best to get better each day.My ideal person would be one who considers himself above average intelligence. Someone who also enjoys reading. Someone who loves many types of music and believes life comes with a soundtrack. Not in a cheesy way but the way the music inspires memory and lights a thought in your heart, sometimes forcing you to think in new ways. He would consider his sense of humor to be that of wit and sarcasm. He is boldly confident but with an air of boyish charm. The kind of person who appreciates learning and analyzing things. He loves food and isn't a picky eater. Proper grammar is a definite bonus. As a past smoker, I understand if you smoke but you're going to have to sell me on why you're so awesome, I should overlook it. I also used to drink and now I don't. I give a big hurrah to those who drink but if it's something you do on a regular basis, especially to excess, it's a deal breaker for me. I don't expect anyone to change to meet my expectations. I know there are others out there whose ideas match my own. While I expect to differ on many things or ideas, it's important to me to find someone I enjoy spending time with doing little to nothing, with similar thoughts, ideas, hobbies and passions. I don't think that's asking too much. Expecting someone to change would be...I am quite comfortable spending time by myself but I would love to find someone who can maintain my interest. When I find someone I really enjoy, I like to see them as much as possible. I am not the woman to throw herself casually into anything. I think it's time for someone to sweep me off my feet. I am not going to ask myself out...Don't guys pursue women anymore? I believe pretty strongly that the guy should plan the date. I'm not sure if that's sheer old fashionedness or just a belief that a guy can put in some work to woo a girl. It may suck to plan a date you're afraid she won't like, but I promise not to complain since I put you up to the task. I also think that after we meet, the guy should probably pick her up as well. I really would be open to most things. Dinner, coffee, frisbee golf, a walk, a game, fishing, etc. I would rather be creative than cliche but it's really all about who you are as a person.

Selfishness is not living as one wishes to live, it is asking others to live as one wishes to live.Love is the triumph of imagination over intelligence.Everything is simpler than you think and at the same time more complex than you imagine

People tell me I'm funny, and I'm definitely sarcastic. This side of me is more apparent the more I get to know someone. I am a jeans and t-shirt, low-maintenance kind of girl, but I have no problem dressing up for a night on the town. I listen to all types of music, it really depends on my mood at the moment. It is amazing how music can evoke a memory, or you can hear someone else's lyrics perfectly describing your own experiences and moods. I enjoy live music, grew up playing percussion, and would like to learn guitar. I'm the mother of two children, ages 9 and 13. They, of course, are my first priority, but I always make time for that special someone. My kids keep me pretty busy with sports and extracurriculars. I like sports, and I coach basketball. I also love to watch the Vikings. I like to be out on the water fishing, and yes, I can bait my own hook. I enjoy nature, camping, and going to the cabin. I think it is great to "unplug" for a few days. I like to cook and bake. I am the type of person who will bake you your favorite cookies just because. I like to do thoughtful things like that to put a smile on someone's face. I like new experiences, and I want to expose my children to different things, so I take them camping, to the theater, museums, sporting events, concerts, etc. It would be great to have another adult to enjoy these things with too. :) I am a self-proclaimed nerd. I read a lot (my bookshelves are overflowing), watch a lot of movies, know a bunch of random facts and trivia, can quote movies and TV shows, and use made-up words like floopy. I am a very open-minded, tolerant individual. I think everyone is entitled to their beliefs/opinions, as long as those beliefs do not infringe on the rights of anyone else. I don't mind if we don't agree about politics or religion, as long as you don't try to force your beliefs on me.What am I looking for? Communication, an open-mind, laughing til it hurts. Someone who is physically, emotionally, and intellectually compatible. Intelligent conversation. Someone who will challenge my mind. It may sound corny, but I recently heard the song "Smile" by Uncle Kracker on the radio, and I thought--that's what I want. And that's what I want to be for somebody. Low-key dinner or drinks where we can talk and get to know each other. Something entertaining or engaging, such as live music, a sporting event, mini-golf, the zoo, etc. I think it really depends on the person I am with. Hopefully we know enough about each other so we can come up with a fun, mutually agreed-upon activity. Although, I do like surprises! :)
