Kinda here for the forums lately, but below is lil more about me anyway...
"Timing is everything" with me. I love meeting people on Plentyoffish and have met some great friends here. I am a very prioritized person most of the time, because I was raised in a prioritized and practical family. I am a patient person most of the time and patience is a virtue

But I do have those close friends and family that know my imperfections and thankfully they seem to love me anyway. Believe me when I say that I'm far from perfect and I do tolerate imperfections in others too, and hopefully they can tolerate mine as well. I'd like to think I have quite a bit of of patience about important things in life compared to the cat next to me sometimes...so please understand the context of that statement...lol...I'd also like to think of myself as wise for my age, and if you don't believe it, well, I don't feel the need "prove it to you"...lol. I'll just hope you have at least minimal conversation skills, so please don't start the conversation out by asking me to prove it to you....that would not be wise...I may have missed out on flirting lessons when I grew up b/c my mom always taught me to run when the boy tried to kiss me...lol..this was when i was really really young...the older I get I think my mom had the right philosophy...

I take notice of the world around me...and I like being in the company of someone else that does too...I value truly "connecting" with someone because at times it can be rare to have those quality connections in this busy life and sometimes life experience vary so much from person to person. I think we must learn to value even the ability to connect every once in a while...
I have faced my struggles in life and I face them each day and don't use dating as a crutch to make me feel better for the moment. I like to know the people I know are REAL and face life each day "head on" too. At least do a lil work first and play later...that's the healthy way to face life and some people just believe in play play play all the time...and sorry...that's just not REAL...don't get me wrong...play is necessary...you just gotta "earn it"....
I'm not open to telling strangers my life history and every detail of my life until we both use some common social skills up front...sorry is just the way I am. I guess life has shaped me that way.
If you try to keep up with my musical preferences you'll probably get dizzy, but I guess majority of the time my musical preference gravitates towards mellow tunes and relaxing tunes these days. I am a complicated person and I'm afraid everyone I meet does not always understand me...But usually when someone is willing to try to get to know me I make it easier on them by trying to explain my complex personality to them...lol...make sense?
I view dating sites as a tool for meeting people and dating purposes. There is more really good things to know about me than what may be viewed as "the above stuffy facts", but gotta get that outta the way first ...I'm actually a very comical person on occassion...and generally happy when no one is harrassing me...lol
Not here to date these days...
