I don't really know what to put on here because I'm not really interested in dating. Making friends is cool though and is the only reason I keep this profile. I'm honestly not real thrilled with the dating sites. So, if you're looking for a friend, great, go ahead and read on because when I put "friends" on my category..that's actually what I mean.

So..about me...
I'm a single mom. My son's cool. It's been an extremely rough year for both of us emotionally and I feel bad for that, which is one reason I'm not eager to get close to anyone else. I go to college and I work from home. My son is going back to public school after being homeschooled for a couple of years.

My family...well we aren't close at all. The only person I was really close to is dead now. It's pretty much just me and my son. Yes, that does get lonely at times but I would rather be alone than just be with someone for the sake of being with someone.

I write for a living right now. I've worked for myself more than I've worked for anyone else. I don't make great money, but I do have time to spend with my son. I really can't stand it when people judge me based on that. My priority is my son and him growing up to be a decent person, not a materialistic one. Maybe I'm making the wrong choice, but it's not always easy to make these decisions on my own. I'm nice to people. I help kids out. I have a good heart and sometimes I let people take advantage of that. I know they are, but I know who I am too. I kinda think that as long as I stay in line with my own morals, no matter what anyone does, in the end I'll be alright. Maybe that makes sense to you..maybe not.

I like to be outside. I love to plant things. I love being a woman. I like to cook for people..be a comfort to people...avoid judging people. I like the old gender roles. The thing is, you have to be able to trust someone to live like that.

If I was ever going to be with someone again, the things I would look for would be honesty, loyalty, faithfulness, compassion. I would love to make dinner for the guy I'm with and sit down for him to tell me about how his day was. I'd like it if he asked how mine was too. Pretty basic. I just want to be as important to him as he is to me. I don't like it when people play games with me or anyone else or when they take advantage of people, whether it's me or not. I like to get as much attention as I give and I like affection.

I have a good heart and great sense of humor. I live a fairly simple life. I'm constantly trying to better who I am as a person. I don't want to be perfect. I just know that I always have to work on being a good person or I feel stagnant. Trust me, I have many many flaws to work on lol. I'll even share some of them with you if you like. I'm not shy.
In fact, here ya go...
I'm unorganized, I snore, I don't always primp. I cuss, I drink from time to time but nothing on a regular basis. I'm horrible at saving money. I'll neglect the dishes to do something with my son. I work bizarre hours..I'm a writer so although I try to keep a schedule, there are times when no matter how long I sit at the computer nothing comes out and I have to make up for that later. I hate making decisions and am usually not the one taking the lead in the realtionship. I don't dance except for slow dancing..and if I'm fast dancing or singing karaoke I probably should have left the bar about an hour ago. I don't like to mess with my hair alot and in fact my favorite hairstyle is to have a braid on either side though I don't have a pic of it..wierd. I hate "having" to be somewhere at a certain time. I'm not late, I just hate having a set time, but hate for someone to NOT have a set time when we are supposed to meet..again wierd, I know. I'm a pretty good cook, but if I get distracted it's entirely possible I'll burn dinner. I talk alot, but I'm a great listener (that means I'm actually paying attention to what you're saying as opposed to drifting off and nodding my head from time to time.)

That's all I have for now while I ponder the potential deleting of this profile.

I'm not even ready to worry about this question just yet.
