Let's just say, I have done this off and on for awhile and usually know the signs of a good quality person. I have heard it all and surprisingly it has not made me quit or stop trying.

I am educated, mostly through hard work and experience. I am social and not rude or prudish. I like to laugh a lot and have a witty sarcasm, although I never want to offend or hurt anyone.I am a country girl at heart, with the girly girl touch to my personality.Let's just say, I can get dirty and not be upset, but like to look nice, smell nice, softness and be feminine for most occasions.I have a neat clean home with a small dog who does not shed....so you got to like dogs!I have 3 wonderful grown children...I am family oriented, no family problems and do not allow my children to decide my happiness.I am not a religious person ,but respect others in their faith.I am kind and can be very sweet and tender hearted, but have a strong survival, safe side that I use constructively to protect myself. I am not black and white in my thinking, but rather see a lot of gray in life and in others way of living.Not stuffy and know life is to short. No Judgment here....I have enough to worry about for myself to improve!

I prefer a clean cut man who cares about his appearance. I like a man clean shaven or has very little facial hair.Nice teeth, meaning you have them and they are not rotting out of your mouth.No fake hair please!I do not need a father figure, I have one and controlling personalities won't quite get along with me.Must be easy going , can take a good joke, laugh at himself and can be socially fun. Not much will embarrass you and you would accept my personality openly. Employed is good, not greedy, not to obsessive, not a whiner or complains about everything in life. He will see life as "Half Full".A gentleman that knows how to date a woman. Available to date and does not use excuses about distance , too busy or has no free time. He will have some class, but have a crazy, fun side to him when the occasion arises. A man who likes to go out and do things, but also doesn't mind a quiet night at home. Well rounded in his interests and enjoy doing the things I like to do too.

I am not skinny ,nor do I have this raging hot body...pass me by if that is important to you. I am very confident in my sexuality and being feminine.

In all honesty...I am worn out by the dating process, but I like to live my life thinking positive. If I found a compatible love partner, then that would be great. I am a lady and like to be treated as such. You will be treated with respect and kindness without fail!

No picture...no meeting! I am very firm on that issue! I will not compromise my safety, so first meet will be somewhere public. Any man worth his integrity would do that for a woman to insure her safety.I feel people put to much pressure on first dates.A first date is not a free pass to commit,date that person again, nor is it a free pass physically. It is a time to meet and test the waters.I like to meet for dinner, dessert or coffee, talk & just enjoy the evening.If there is no chemistry, then we should be honest & walk away with no hard feelings. All I ask is for truth in what you are looking for & what you are, physically & emotionally.
