Okay, here is the long overdue REVISED profie.......

Can I take a moment to kinda set the record straight about something? Thank you, I believe I will.. lol

Many of you have asked me questions such as...."what is a girl like you (in so many words) doing HERE on this website?"....or, "why hasn't someone already snatched you up?".....or..."why are you still single?"...."someone like you shouldn't need this website to find a date"....etc., etc., etc. And that is absolutely right....I don't "NEED" this site to find a stink'n date, or a man, period! And I am still single because that has been MY choice!!! After TWENTY SIX LOOOONNNNGGGG YEARS of being in an unhappy marriage, and feeling like you were watching your life go by and wondered if you would EVER be F R E E of the situation you were in, and waking up EVERY day wishing that THIS would be the day.....then, when you DO finally get your freedom, you're not so quick to give it up. Can ANYbody out there(besides me) understand this concept?????

Don't get me wrong, I am NOT a man-hater.....far from it. Heck, I don't think I could live without one....hmmm...maybe that was TMI. Anyway, back to what I was saying....oh yeah...I don't even hate my ex...we actually get along just fine. But, I refuse to live the next 26 years (or however many I've got left) in an unhappy situation.....NOT gonna happen! Been there, don't that....and AIN'T gonna do it again! Not saying I'm not gonna ever get married again...just saying I refuse to "settle" and be UNhappy again!

I got married when I was barely 17, and while many of you were out sowing your wild oats and living life to the fullest, I was at home, being a very devoted, loving wife, and mother, and really never knew what DATING, and going out and having a good time was all about.....until NOW!!!

I've been divorced for over 3 years now and I have definitely been making up for lost time, and I've loved every minute of it.....well, hmmm let me think about that....okay, how bout MOST minutes of it! LOL

Since gaining my freedom, settling down with just ONE person has been the furtherest thing from my mind. But, I must admit....I have finally reached a place that I can honestly say that it's something I would definitely consider now, IF and when someone comes along that really "does it" for me.

I've met a lot of men.....and some very decent, and quality men, at that. But, so far, no one that has really "done it" for me.....yet. I'm sure this is going to get me a lot of "hate" mail....and if it does, then so be it.....still not changing where I stand.

I posted a profile here awhile back, mainly because it was free, and figured what the heck, what have I got to lose....ya know?

Truthfully, I'm not really that "in" to this site anyway....I could SO take it, or leave it. I guess I haven't deleted my profile yet, just in case someone were to come along and just completely take me by surprise. Cuz I gotta tell ya....it's gonna take a whole lot! Sorry, just being honest!

Although, I will let ya in on a little bitty secret...but, only if you promise not to tell anyone....okay?...I have a bit of a weakness for men with big arms and big chest....and even moreso if he is equipped with just the right amount of hair on that nice, sexy chest! Mmmmmmm HOWEVER, a huge turn off to me is kissing someone that smokes. Sorry, want no part of that. So, if you are a smoker, please be honest and let that be known UPFRONT!!!

Let me use this space to say that if you don't have a pic, OR have no intentions of sending one, please don't waste my time, or yours.

If you're married, or in a serious relationship, again, don't waste my time. I have absolutely NO desire to get in the middle of ANY of that!!

If HONESTY is not a part of your EVERY day life....if you don't know the meaning of the word COMMUNICATION.....if you have ZERO class.....and if you're going to complain about the cost of parking, of all things, on a FIRST date.....then, I'd prefer you pass me on up, and go to the gazillions of other profiles on here, where these qualities don't really matter.

And one more thing....not that this is a "deal breaker"....but, it really is a turn off when you go to read someone's profile and/or the mail they've sent you, and you have to wonder HOW on earth they made it thru the first freak'n grade with their spelling, punctuations, or should I say the lack thereof....and the proper use of words that are pronounced the same, but spelled differently! I mean c'mon people...how hard is it to insert a little "DOT"...you know, that thing they call a "period" at the END of each sentence????

Okay, that's all for now. If I haven't turned you completely away, feel free to email me.

Oh, WAIT....one more thing...okay, maybe two....you know, we would all be lying if we said that physical appearance isn't important, and who wants to be seen out with a butt ugly person, right? So....yes, looks are important to me, but I have to go on and say that if you are a man of CONFIDENCE, and reeaaallly know how to carry yourself, then you don't have to be the best looking guy in the room. Just those two things alone really can get any woman's attention. Seriously, guys....it really is all in HOW you "carry" yourself. If you only knew how UNattractive low self esteem is!! HUGE turn off! I'm not saying you have to be arrogant either, but there's a way a man can carry himself, and not even have to look like Brad Pitt, yet have the attention of every woman in the room! A REAL sense of humor is also a MUST! I LOVE to laugh. I love to be silly & goofy, and just have a good time. I will ALWAYS be myself, regardless who I am with....ALWAYS! First dates, meetings, or whatever you want to call them, do not bother me. I'm never really nervous, and can carry a conversation like none other....not kidding! lol

Okay, I'm done now. Guess I've written probably more than some of you will ever read.
