I've reached my goal weight, so, I've changed my body type to "athletic" instead of "average." Also, I've found, in talking and meeting folks, that the definition of body types varies GREATLY from person to person. I do hope that anyone who sees me in person will agree that I'm really athletic or at least average and not "a few extra pounds." No one has said I looked fat recently, if that helps...lol

I wanted to let all the handsome, funny and/or intelligent men out there that the reason I don't add you all to my favorites is that you're just too far away...BUMMER!!!

I THINK I BETTER ADD THIS, SO, FOLKS WON'T THINK I'M JUST RUDE...I SEEM TO BE HAVING TROUBLE WITH THE IM HERE...IT WON'T CONNECT AND I CAN'T GET IT TO WORK...SO, I CAN'T IM U, OKAY, WHETHER I ACCEPT OR DENY....SORRY!

I feel like I'm a fairly happy person, so, I would like to meet a happy person; no one that is too serious. It depresses me. I like men with a sense of humor and intelligence, and there are all types of intelligence, so, I'm not necessarily talking about an formally educated man.

I want the regular qualities everyone wants, similar interests, honesty, monogamy (is that spelled right?) and someone who is looking for something other than just a casual fling... An activity partner or just a friend would be okay, but I'm not here just for sex, okay? I just want to make myself perfectly clear on that...lol

Now, I have to say this, and I hope it isn't taken the wrong way, but I must say most men (as may be true with women too, I don't know) seen to be basically from the same mold because they seem to have the same interests with a few exceptions. And those interests aren't really anything I'm interested in like football, sports, NASCAR, motorcycles, and/or golf (although I do play miniature golf, badly...lol). I don't mind if anyone wants to watch whatever on t.v. because I can do without watching t.v. (except for the Monday night comedy line-up on CBS), but I'm just not really interested in any of those things. Sometimes I wish I were, it would make this dating stuff LOTS easier I do believe, but I just honestly don't give a flip about any of it...lol But it's cool with me if you do, you know...

Well, after a few dates with men here, I'm going to have to add something. And I have to say I have found this to be true of men closer to my age and older. Rude isn't a good quality. Rude is just rude. And rudeness under the guise of 'honesty' is still just RUDENESS.

Whether you're physically attracted to me or not does not give you a license to be rude. Telling me you weren't physically attracted to me isn't necessary. I may not be physically attracted to you either, but I have been raised to be polite. I will write or call you and thank you for a meal whether I was attracted to you or not. It's just something I believe I should do if someone was kind enough to take me out. And it doesn't make you a better person to show how 'honest' you are.

People are attracted to members of the opposite sex for many reasons. The biggest 'turn-on' 'sexy' attribute a man can possess to me is intelligence. Looks aren't THAT important to me, but yes, there does have to be some kind of physical attraction (but you don't have to spend the whole time proving it. I can sense it on my own...lol).

But, please, let me know if you ever find me rude. Trust me, I will never tell you how unattractive you are to me. And the amazing thing is, the ones that have told me that (again, usually men my age and older) were the men I found the least physically attractive. Strange, huh?

Movies, walks, coffee, dinner, conversation, whatever we feel like doing and doesn't take a lot of money to do...lol I'm not a gold digger...got my own "gold," not much, but I can support myself, thank you very much...LOL

I need somebody who isn't into going to bars. I'm sorry, and sometimes I wish I were, but I'm just not a lounge lizard. I really never have been, although, of course, I've been to bars, but they're just really not me. I'm more of a homebody. sometimes I wish I was a bar person and a drinker. I think I could meet more compatible men if I were, but unfortunately, again, I'm not (gee, if I was just more "normal," I'd be great, huh?). Bars are hot and smoky and meat markets and full of drunk folks and it's okay maybe once a month, but that's about it...lol
