Does not want children
About Me
I've been doing some "soul searching" since I signed up here. Did I want to do the "traditional thing" of marriage and family, or did I want to just be ME. I chose the latter. Here's why:
While marriage and family is wonderful for some people, it isn't so for me. I know. I've been married before. Engaged two other times--broke them off before the cake could be ordered. I've come to the conclusion that I'm really not built for marriage. I have nothing against it, but for me, it is pointless.
Now, here's the thing. What do I want. Well, it's easy, really. I do want a long-term relationship with a man. A single man. Just not be married to him. That's all. I'm not really into the "shacking up" thing. Done that many, many times before. And, just like the engagements, I kicked out the fella once I got either bored or irritated. So, I'm better off alone in that respect. But I do have a huge heart that needs "stroking" and "loving". I'm not immune to the glories of love--just married love. That's all.
I can make an exception for the "shacking up" part--if the man's exceptional. And does want to be sort-of a step father to a young boy. (He's still not with me, but in time he will be.) But definitely not anything more than that.
I've seen too many marriages fall apart. Mine did. Yours might have also. Why add to the dysfunction that goes with a failed marriage and just skip that part? Doesn't that make sense? I hope so.
I do love dating, though. And quiet times alone with my "mate". And, well, Other Activities. I'm only human. But that won't come with just one or two dates. There has to be more to a "relationship" than that.
Strangely enough, I also have developed a "taste" for younger men. Oh, I don't mind men who are older than me--just not too much older. (It's that 40's thing, I guess...)
I also would prefer someone who's "local". With the economy being what it is, you see. Unless you got buckets of money and don't mind the travel--but then again I wouldn't trust you with all that cash lying around. My mother told me to be wary of guys who have unlimited access to ready cash. One of the few things mom told me that made much sense. Golddigger I am not. Honestly. Don't believe what I write, but believe me if you give me a chance to "show and tell".
I love interesting pictures in profiles. Props are good. Smiles are better. Smiles with props will get you a smile from me. But the props have to be interesting and the smiles sincere. (Children are wonderful--but not to be used as PROPS! They belong in the parent's heart--not a dating site. Nor are other women. Doesn't matter the relationship. Most women do not like to see men pose with other women if they are on a dating site.)
If this does interest you, then feel free to drop me a line. I don't have regular computer access, but will get back with you when I can.

First Date
I enjoy movies and dinner like most women. Or just dinner and great conversation. Bad Chinese out of the box and movie from Blockbuster works just as well as dinner at a three-star restaurant--so long as you bring yourself to the table and are not bringing your "game". The rest is up to you....
