Ok...so here's 100% honesty...I never thought that I would be on one of these websites...I thought that there was supposed to be some magical moment that I would just "run into" the man of my dreams. And like many of you, my friends all say "Why are you still single?!?" and "Anyone would be lucky to have you!". So here I sit, wondering, why haven't I met Mr. Right instead of Mr. Right Now?

Perhaps it is because I have been so concentrated on starting my second career including studying, focusing and working harder than I ever thought possible...that he slipped by me when I wasn't looking. Or, maybe it was because I always thought that the Boy had to make the first move, and was raised being told that "nice girls don't call boys".

Whatever the reason...here I am. I still believe in fairytales, despite having my heart broken once or twice. I still believe that God has made that "perfect" person, for me...but he need not be perfect. I still believe that I will be swept off my feet and he, in turn will be swept off his...but it may take getting out of my shell.

So...here I am...stretching...trying new things. Perhaps, maybe...just maybe...its you?

My friends describe me as nice, funny, witty, honest, intelligent, friendly and determined in anything I try. I like adventure, traveling, and to be outdoors relaxing with friends and family. I love going to the river or riding dirt bikes/quads.

My family is very important to me is described as a loud, obnoxious, group of funny Irish people. I am someone who knows who they are and isn't interrested in the "game" or fake people. If we become friends, Great! If it develops into more...even better.

People that interrest me the most have a sense of humor, are sure of who they are and are secure in a crowded room. I would like to meet someone that can hang with my family...or my friends and have fun in either place. Someone who can keep up and dish it back if the ribbing gets to be too much.

Something important to me is someone that can be independant and do their own thing, yet isn't too "cool" to bring me in to hang with their friends as well. I think that time with friends is important...but, bringing everyone together and sharing friends is equally important. I want someone who can balance both and who respects my individuality as well and has the same care free attitude.

Last but not least, if your machismo doesn't allow you to have a girl that works with a lot of guys and is independant enough to change her own hot water heater...then I am probably not the one for you. Don't get me wrong, I am all girl and take pride in that! And not to be rude...but if your old enough to be my dad, it probably wouldn't work out.
