I'm told after a while of doing this online dating thing you get right to the point, so as not to waste other peoples time. So I'm going to tell you what I'm hoping to find in a guy.

Here goes...
1st - Please have more than just one picture of Bart Simpson, a couple of your dog, one of the sunset and one of you standing on a sandy beach about 50 feet from the camera - I want to see you not your photography abilities.

2nd - I am extremely down to earth - no high maintenance about me - I'm pretty much a cheap date as it's not the material value I'm looking for nor do I care what you drive and what kind of suit you wear, but I am more interested in what you want to achieve in your life as an individual and where you see yourself in the future.

3rdly - If you live at the gym .... eat, breathe and dream about the gym, have the words GYM tattooed in gangsta styled lettering on your bicep - then we are NOT going to get along.

4thly - If your ONLY mode of transportation is a motorcycle - mmmm you're wasting your time reading the rest of my profile. I'm afraid of them ... even though my brother owns one - i on the other hand want to make it to my destination with ALL my limbs!

5thly - If you look in the mirror more then I do ... I'm the wrong girl for you.

and finally .... If you're associated to anyone who drives a bullet proof vehicle or you yourself drive one that is worth more then my Jetta ... sorry it's NOT going to work between us.

I'm looking for a lighthearted man between the ages of 39 and 45 who enjoys the humorous side of life. You're clean-shaven (goatee is acceptable) and can hold a conversation during a 150 mile car ride, then we may be a match. You must be able to charm my Mum because she believes I should be going to the library to find a nice man. I am hoping to avoid that avenue at all cost!

I am honest, trustworthy, funny, dependable and believe that beauty is in the eye of the beholder - so what is one man's trash is another man's treasure - my photo's are of me in all sorts of settings. I'm NOT a barbie, i have no eating disorders and don't believe in eating half a grape and saving the rest for later. Sometimes i can be stubborn (i like to call it passionate about what i believe in) so if your willing to smile and nod while I'm in my "passionate about what i believe in" stage then we will get along fine. If this stage goes a little sideways I hope you follow me if I take off during an argument. (This would only happen in a stage 3 argument ... IE: where i know i might be wrong but you won't let me win! LOL)
I hope you will help me obtain my goals (right now I'm enrolled in dance class and am planning to be on next seasons dancing with the stars). I give 200% to everything I do and I will work at a relationship even when it gets hard so I need someone who is willing to fight for the relationship and not back out when the going gets tough.
I will always keep my individuality as I hope you would too - but for times when were not together I hope that either one of us will call and say they miss each other.
My bar days are over - the long waits for a bathroom stall and fighting for a spot to look in the mirror have come to an end - i enjoy drinks on a patio with friends, bbq's, pubs or just a quiet night watching old movies, so having someone who equally likes those same things is important. I also like surprises so if something special has been planned for me all you need to do is tell me what to wear and when to be ready! Let the adventure begin!
I'm a private person and don't believe in making love on the corner of a busy street (not into the petting, panting shows in public)- but there is something to be said about someone who loves to hold my hand so that people know that we are together and a passionate kiss every once in awhile. I hope to find someone who lets me be audacious and loves me for it, who respects my beliefs and by that i don't mean religious beliefs because i don't belong to any religion but i do try and live the right way of life. I hope to find someone who makes my heart skip a beat when he looks at me from across the room and hope I have the same effect on him. I hope you would be the strong and silent type and not afraid to say you've made a mistake. I realize to be a manly man you need to love sports and i don't have a problem with that - in fact i encourage it but i would hope you don't take it to the level of telling me to "beat it" when the sports page is on!
I hope that i can tell this person "My life has become better now that you're in it". I hope you are humorous and witty and can make me laugh even if I’m upset and crying. Most of all you need to be man enough to stand up to your friends if they call you a softy because you used to watch the Love Boat and Fantasy Island when you were a kid!!

I'm easy going, spontaneous, polite, and a respectful person, who will go outside my comfort zone to do something others would like to do (within moderation of course), i have a great sense of humor and can talk a lot. So I'm hoping that you fit the same bill. That you like the same lifestyle as me with the hope of a log house in the mountains and maybe a couple horses and snowmobiles.

OK so, wow, there you have it. It's honest, raw and real. I'm not optimistic that I can find each and every one of these traits, but hey shoot high and see where things go.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE NO - CHEATER'S, LIARS, USERS OR ALCOHOLIC'S. I love kids and would ultimately like the opportunity to start a family of my own with someone who would also be experiencing this for the first time too. Having been on this site for awhile - most everyone has kids ... am i the only person who has not been married and has no kids??? Cheesh ... i guess i didn't get that memo!
It gets complicated when little ones are involved but ... i'm not counting it out - there would have to be a great connection with me and this special person!
