Friends first. Relationships have to start somewhere, but hopefully grow into long term.
I am a down to earth, enjoy the simple pleasures of life kinda gal. I can dress up and do a night on the town or dress down and enjoy a night of movies and popcorn. I have a great sense of humour and love to make others laugh. I enjoy my life as it is but I think it could be so much better if shared with the right person.

I have selected "does not want children" as I do not wish to have anymore of my own, but if you have children, I am fine with that.

For interests ... see above list.

According to my daughter, I need to be specific about what I'm looking for in a man. I'm not sure where to start with that but I guess if we'd all be honest with ourselves, physical attraction is the first piece of the puzzle. In saying that, what I find attractive may not be what some other woman would find attractive. So here goes...
- I like a taller man, but if you're at least my height or a couple of inches taller that would be ok.
- I am also very attracted to men with facial hair, not excessive, a scruffy beard or goatee is good.
- I like tattoos, and some piercings.
- The build isn't a big deal......I'm sure every woman thinks a buff man is attractive and the 6 pack is cool but it's not something I put too much emphasis on. More interested in healthy than ripped. Not into extremely overweight. I wouldn't object to sharing an hour at the gym with my guy.
- As for age.... well, I'm inclined to believe it is just a number ..... it has nothing to do with who you are.

Having said all of that......I don't ever limit myself to just those things. There are alot of other attributes that make someone attractive to another person. There's the smile and the eyes, that's always what I see first.

So that's just the physical side........but to get the whole package you have to have the personality too. I love funny, crazy, spontaneous and fun to be with. It's nice to be serious when needed but when you're smiling life just feels better. Reliable, dependable, honest, respectful and caring. Those should come naturally.

I guess the only way to know if you're compatible after you decide you're attracted is to talk. In person is preferred as you get the whole picture and not just words on a screen with no passion behind them.

Oh and one more thing, please have a recent photo. Seeing what you looked like at your high school grad is nice if you're reminessing but it says nothing about who you are now.

Here's what I'm hoping to find someday. Someone who can...take my breath away with a look, make my heart race with just a thought & make me melt with just a touch?

You'll never know what might have been if you don't take a chance so say hi :)

Grab a coffee / tea to go and take a walk by the river if the weather is nice.
