Hello! Thanks for looking at my profile! Top 10 reasons why you should take the time to get to know me! LOL!

1. I am a happy woman, feel good about myself, and love to laugh!

2. I am PASSIONATE, intelligent, independent, honest, loyal, and have integrity.

3. I stick around when the going gets tough.

4. I am a Christian and believe.

5. I have many gifts and love to give to others.

6. I appreciate all the gifts YOU have and TELL you that.

7. I am VERY sensual and sexual if I am with the right man in a committed relationship.

8. I work hard and am highly respected in my field.

9. I have a wonderful daughter who is now 21 and a senior in college, and she is a great young lady with a good head on her shoulders! I am blessed!

10. I want to be in a committed relationship that is right for BOTH of us... it has to be a mutual connection physically, mentally, emotionally for it to work... I don't want to "settle" for less than I need, and I also don't want YOU to settle for less than what YOU need...

Can you imagine someone to be with who you can talk with for hours... who shares your values, beliefs, dreams... who you cannot wait to see at the end of each day... and love to wake up with each morning... who is as in love with you as you are with them... who respects you as much as you respect them, and who appreciates all of the gifts you have to offer as much as you appreciate the gifts they have to offer... someone who shares the joy of being with you no matter what the activity... someone you can trust completely, and they can completely trust you... who loves to laugh as much as you love to laugh... contact me and let’s see if we might be compatible...

I'd like to find someone who is stable, honest, has integrity, is intelligent, is passionate about life, and has a good idea of himself and what he wants and needs. Someone who is physically attractive (to me), who is physically attracted TO ME... where we are both attracted to each other in terms of the gifts we both have to offer and the compatibility we can share... who is emotionally and financially stable, and who loves to smile and laugh... someone who has a strong faith in God and lives his life as best he can as God would want him to... someone who is interested in actually meeting to see if we connect, and if we do he is interested and willing to take the time to be together to explore the possibilities... I want someone who is emotionally able to invest in the possibility of a long-term committed relationship... if you live far away from me, we would have to talk about how that would work and what you could commit to in terms of meeting me, and if we hit it off how we would see each other on a regular basis to explore the possibilities... I love the outdoors and being physically active biking and blading... outdoor concerts, camping, hiking, roller coasters, and singing! Would like to be with someone who enjoys at least some of these same things...

Given the types of men who have been contacting me here, let me clarify that "attractive to me" means someone who is not excessively overweight and who has taken good care of his body, who is at least 5'9" or taller, and who has the same income range as I do or higher. We all know that physical attraction is important for chemistry to happen, even though a lot of other things need to be there between two people as well, but initial physical attraction needs to be there... I want to be with someone who is SERIOUS about getting to know more about me. PLEASE have a close up pic on your profile that actually shows your face and what you look like without a hat and/or sunglasses, an essay that tells me something about you, and indicate your income range so that you show up when that income range is searched... Thanks for reading, and have a great day!

I think sending a few e-mails back and forth to get a sense of each other is good, and if we find there is some connection, meeting for dinner and drinks in a quiet restaurant where we can talk would be awesome!
