About Me: I am a little shy

...until I get to know you. I love most types of music and I’m always interested in hearing new stuff. I love live music! I love all kinds of movies. I like to watch TV too (thank GOD for DVR & Hulu). I read the gossip magazines - just for fun. I love to read almost anything. Everybody always wants me on their team when playing trivia games. I have a great family and awesome friends and spend a lot of time with them. Family is very important to me. I believe in God but I'm not super-religious. I'm a Republican, just in case you are wondering. I pay attention to what's going on in the world, but I generally do not like to discuss politics or religion...those subjects can be too intense and people end up angry. I've seen people lose friendships that way...no thank you!
What I'm looking for: I'm not a super-model and I'm not looking to date a super-model...I want to meet someone who is down-to-earth and real. What you see is what you get with me. I only know one way to be and that is to be
ME. If you don’t like that I’m sorry. I don’t play head games. I don't like them and I just don't have the patience for them. I don't understand why people play games. Say what you mean and mean what you say.
I don't have a particular
"type" of guy I'm interested in. I don't care if you have blonde or brown hair. I don't care if you don't have any hair at all! Not interested in any particular build either...as long as you don't look gross! Looks aren't everything but they do count for something. If I can't look at you, then it stands to reason that I wouldn't want to go out with you. And what I think is gross, someone else may think is perfect so don't be offended if I'm just not attracted to you.
I don't do "cyber-sex" so don't even bother asking that question! I'm not looking for a hook-up...I want a real relationship. I don't want to rush into anything...we should get to know each other first and find out if the potential for more is there. I don't expect to "fall in love" on the first date, but if I like you I will let you know. If I'm not feeling it I will let you know. Just be honest with me, if you aren't feeling it, LET ME KNOW!!!! Even if we've gone out for a while...be brutally honest if necessary. I'm the type of person that tends to wear my heart on my sleeve. I get hurt a lot that way unfortunately but I don’t know any other way to be. I don't want to go out with someone too old...I've gotten messages from guys who are my dad's age... totally creepy! You may be the nicest guy in the world but if you're more than 10 yrs older than me, I'm not interested. Maybe that will change later on down the road, but for now 10 yrs is my limit. Anything else you want to know, just ask.

My ideal first date would be doing something active like miniature golf or bowling. I love to roller skate though that could be dangerous.

We should have fun and still be able to talk & get to know each other in a relaxed atmosphere. The best first date I ever went on was to a Pensacola Ice Pilots game...so fun!
