Hey there, I'm Deanna and I live in Kenosha, work in New Berlin and will be moving closer to work this spring. I am an outgoing, fun loving person who isn't too insecure or high maintenance. I'm animated, funny and pretty sarcastic but I know when to be sensitive and nice. I'm always on the go and need someone willing & able to keep up. I prefer jeans & sneakers and don't do much with my hair, but when necessary clean up pretty well. I'm fortunate to be feminine without being girly.

I'm interested in meeting someone who has integrity and understands what it means to be honest and keep his word. I'm talking about the big things like being faithful but also simple things like calling when he says he will. I don't think guys realize just how important that is to a girl.

I will stand up for things I believe in but won't force you to agree with me. I need a man who is passionate in his convictions and won't roll over at the first sign of trouble yet won't put up w/my crap either. I don't really appreciate passive guys, I like someone who has a strong personality and an equally witty/sarcastic sense of humor. I'd also like a guy who has kids and has been married. I find that it's important to have those things in common more so than liking the same music or movies. I do not want a guy who's got a lot of ex drama though or one whose life revolves around his kids. You gotta make time for yourself and for me. Its all about balance.

I'm interested in talking a time or two online/phone but I would like to meet in person to establish mutual interest. I don't consider myself a serial dater rather a one man woman, but there's a process to go through to get there. If I get to the 5th date with someone, it's a safe bet that this profile will no longer be necessary.

I like guys who work with their hands but can hold intelligent conversations. I'm not into thugs or pretty boys - I'd like a combo of both. I expect you to do guy things like watch football and drink beer, I just ask that you invite me to join you. I've read through a lot of the girl's profiles on here and I don't think I'm asking for much different than they are but you should pick me - I'm more fun. :)

I would like you to be local because I like to be spontaneous. I also expect you to already be divorced. I'm not into jealous guys or those who make promises they have no intention of keeping. I'd like to think none of us are on here to play games or waste time. I promise to be open & honest with you, I expect the same in return.

First dates depend on the people and weather. I actually would prefer to meet for a coffee or soda to judge initial interest/attraction. There's nothing worse than having to suffer through 2 hours of a meal or a movie with someone you knew 5 minutes in wasn't right for you.
