SERIOUSLY: what in my profile makes people upset with me?? I do not understand why I am receiving soo many rude messages. If you dont have anything nice to say, dont say it at allllllll.

Filling in this section is the worst part of signing up for a dating service. It is very odd trying to sell yourself to a bunch of strangers in a few sentences...I am a 30 year old single mom of 5. (yes, that is ALOT of kids, but most of them are teenagers and they are incredible kids. Ive never been made to feel bad about loving my large family til i joined this site. The question "why did you have so many??!!" is getting old) They take up 99.9% of my life right now, and thats the way I love it. We have alot of fun and really get out and enjoy life together. But, like everyone else on here, I guess Im looking for what is missing. I am a pretty simple, uncomplicated person who is very easy to please. I am content just staying in to watch a movie, or having dinner at Dave & Busters, followed by some video games there(but you have to let me win). When I need some quiet time, I like to go hiking. I am a white girl in every way, which means I cannot dance to save my life. But I do like going to a bar every once in a while.
Some other random facts:
1. I am REALLY looking for a LTR.
2. I have a bunch of kids. They have a good dad who takes gr8 care of them & supports them. I'm not looking for a new daddy for them.
3. I LOVE old-fashioned men.
4. I wish I had time to find the wives of some married men on this site. Grow up, put on your big boy undies, and get a divorce. Yes, it is THAT easy.
5. I am a regular girl, NOT a supermodel. I have curves, but Im far from fat.
6. I let my dogs eat off my fork.
7. I have bad credit(sorry, but thats what divorce does)
8. I hate pessimists. I CAN polish a turd.
9. I love sarcasm.
10.I am a great friend to have.
11.I hate weddings and most "chick-flicks".
12.I have alot of respect for people who are very specific on here on what they are looking for. By our age, we should have a good idea of what we want in a significant other. I do not get offended if you look at my page and dont write. Or say "if you have kids, move on". It's called being honest.
13.If you feel the need to tell me your income, or how big ur package is before we meet, i can guarantee we will never meet.
14.(shouldve been #1)Family means EVERYTHING to me and will always come 1st.
15.If you've gotten this far, you have an incredible attention span. I'm impressed!
16.Only after many dates and some feeling that this relationship can go somewhere will you know where I live. I have kids. Their safety is my priority. Ive been divorced 5 years, they have never even seen me with another man. That should tell you how over-protective I am.
17.I have an incredible, happy, drama free life. And that is how I plan on keeping it.
18.I don't care what anyone thinks of me and how I live my life.
19.I haven't been on a date or been with a guy in any way,lol, in over a year now. I am not in a rush to find just anyone. I'm going for quality here, not quantity.

I DO NOT discriminate because of looks, height, weight, race, job, lack of owning your own vehicle(lol), etc. I go by your interests and whats written on your profile. However, I would not date anyone who is much younger than me or anyone with a pic of themselves shirtless, flexing in a mirror while trying to take a pic with their camera-phone...And if I dont respond, its not because I am rude. I have a life outside trying to find a man :-/. There are MANY more men on here than there are women, so we get lotsss more emails, and it would become a second job writing every1 back. Dont take things so personally.

What would I LIKE to do for a 1st date?? Have sex right off the bat to make sure I'm not wasting my time or yours(LOL)...But what would I ACTUALLY do for a 1st date? Nothing remotely close to my 1st answer(but, I probably had more of your attention for a BRIEF second). First date would preferrably be at a park. A nice walk n talk. Or just anything informal, I hate getting dressed up.
