I'm on this site to see if I can meet a good man. Hopefully they still exist somewhere because all I meet in my day to day life are pricks lol. So if you like what you see or read on here, don't be shy and shoot me a message. First here's a little info about me...well, A LOT of info. So I hope you like to read..

My name is Ciarra...pronounced "see-air-uh". You'd be surprised at how many people mis-pronounce it lol. But everyone calls me Ci Ci.

I've only lived in Chicago for about 1 year, but I absolutely love it.

I work and go to school in downtown Chicago on Michigan Ave.

But my apartment is on the northside near Roger's Park.

I love jazz and blues music.

My favorite artist is Nina Simone. If you've never heard of her I suggest you get with it and look her up. She is a musical genius.

But overall my taste in music is pretty broad. I listen to everything, literally. If you go through my playlist you'll see Tupac, Pink Floyd, Aerosmith, Wutang Clan, Frank Sinatra, Mariah Carey...the list goes on.

I'm a huge film buff. And a big fan of the horror genre.

I love kids. I love them so much that I've decided to dedicate my career to teaching them. I'm currently in school pursuing a degree in early childhood education with a concentration in American sign language. Kids are a hell of a lot easier to deal with than adults. This is a FACT. Let's help the kids before they get corrupted by this sh-tty world we live in.

I will try almost anything once.

I'm a brutally honest person, sometimes to a fault.

Why is every man on this site a massive pervert? No, I'm not going to sleep with you right away or anytime soon. So stop asking. It makes you look perverted and desperate. How about developing a relationship with a woman first and THEN becoming intimate with her. Now there's an idea. If this is something that's difficult for you to do, then you need to seek professional help.

One of my biggest pet peeves is poor grammar. So if you like to use a lot of slang words or ebonics, or if you frequently TyPe LiK dIs, I will feel compelled to constantly correct you. And that could get annoying for the both of us. You're an adult, so communicate like one.

Good grammar is important and reading is fundamental. Seriously, if you don't know the difference between "there", "they're", and "their"...we probably won't get along.

Bob Marley is my hero.

My big mouth always gets me into trouble because I never hesitate to speak my mind.

I have big boobs and it's generally the first thing people notice when they meet me. So if you are not a "breast man", you probably won't find my body type attractive.

I'm not the kind of girl who's going to cling to you, call you ten times a day, constantly ask to see you, and act like the psycho clingy stalker type. That's not my style. I like my space, and I like to give the man I'm with his space too. So if you like girls who blow up your phone and show you tons and TONS of attention. Or women who love to shower you with compliments and kiss the ground you walk on, that's NOT me...at all. Too many men like their precious egos stroked. It's annoying.

I've dated just about every race imaginable. I'm open to all types of people. I don't discriminate.

It seems like whenever I get approached or contacted by a white guy, the first thing that comes out of his mouth is "do you like white guys?" or "have you ever been with a white guy?" It's annoying, and if you really want to piss me off, it's the perfect thing to say. I like all men. I don't care if you're purple, orange, green, or blue. I know this may be a difficult concept for some people to get, but not everyone judges people based on race. I know, I know...shocking.

If you aren't black: I prefer men who have dated interracially before. I'm not here to fulfill some curiousity or fantasy you have about being with a black woman. I can't tell you how often white men approach me saying "I've always wondered what it's like to date a black girl..."--it's VERY annoying.

I love to write. Especially lyrics and poetry.

I love my boobs and I like to wear shirts that show them off. I don't see anything wrong with this. But some men think it's an invitation for sex. It's not. At all.

The most important trait a person can have is consistency. I enjoy people who act the same way all the time. Don't be nice one minute and then an a$$ the next.

I'm a sucker for men with tattoos. There's nothing sexier...

My favorite food is lasagna. Or pretty much anything Italian.

I'm not impressed or surprised easily.

I can't handle overtly religious people. I find them to be the biggest hypocrites on the planet.

I'm sarcastic as hell. Infact, most of this profile was written in a sarcastic tone, but it's probably hard to sense that over the internet.

If you message me and I don't respond, it's probably because I read something on your profile that turned me off. And there's no point in trying to pursue something with someone I know I won't get along with.

Deal breakers for me: men who are unemployed, men who still live with their parents, men who describe themselves in only a sentence or two on their profile, men who are only looking for a friend or someone to hang out with (seriously, why are you even on here? this is a DATING site). If you just want to make new friends, then I suggest going somewhere else. Try face-book.

You're still reading...that's a good sign. I haven't lost you yet.

LOVE dogs, hate cats. They're vicious little creatures and you never know when they're going to turn on you. Egyptians once believed that cats were the guardians of Hell. And you know what, I kind of agree with them. But I won't hold it against you if you have a cat.

Just like I won't hold it against you if you're a sox fan. It's not your fault you have bad taste. Maybe that's just how you were raised :P

That last comment was a joke, but some people take baseball so seriously, I felt like I needed to point out that I was kidding.

My favorite movie is Pulp Fiction. I like to throw in quotes from the film into random conversation.

Some of my other favorite films: American Beauty, The Shawshank Redemption, Goodfellas, The Usual Suspects, Closer, Black Snake Moan, Kill Bill, Basketball Diaries, The Beach, and pretty much anything with Edward Norton or Robert De Niro.

I've dated men in the army before, and based on past experiences, I might be a little hesitant to do it again. They have a tendency to be unbelievably f-cked up, in more ways than one.

I'm only 5'3 but I'm usually attracted to fairly tall men.

I like men with a head full of hair (atleast past your ears). Of course I have nothing against bald men or men with short hair. Longer hair is just a preference.

And that's about i

Something creative! Not the typical dinner and a movie. That is boring and cliche. Let's go to Great America and ride the rollercoasters until we make ourselves sick.
