I am a peacemaker. I like friends getting along with each other. I think love is beautiful. But I have intense fire burning withing me. I have intense feelings, inner truth and wrath. I can be a friend or I can be your worst nightmare if you try to take on my monster. Greater is he that is within me than he that is in the world. The choice is yours to make.

I would love to find a man who enjoys to do things on the spur of the moment. Not expensive things. Maybe play hooky from weekend chores one Saturday, get in the car (price of gas might put a spin on expensive) and drive with the windows down, the radio blaring and take a road that is foreign. Someone who is content to sit in silence, but is also willing to hold up his end of the conversation.

I enjoy being around a man who can pick up on my train of thought and go with it. I don't mean he has to finish my sentences, but someone who understands that I jump from one topic to another, frequently, and doesn't judge me because I can't stay on topic.

It is a very big plus if he is willing to sing along to the radio (even if he can't carry a tune) and be tolerant of me when I do the same. And laughter.....I love to hear a good, throaty laugh, as long as it is not used after making fun of someone in a hurtful way. I don't mind if he pokes fun of my eccentricities, as long as it is good natured. After having lived as long as I have, I have accumulated quite a few of them. They make me the individual that I am. Laughing with me about them tells me he understands that I am unique and that it is ok with him.

Good teeth. I know, that seems shallow; but, a man who takes care of his teeth shows me that he feels he is important. A toothbrush and toothpaste are not that expensive. I understand that there are some dental problems that require good insurance or a lot of money. I can sometimes overlook that, as long as I know he has a plan to squirrel away enough money to get those problems handled.

Oh yeah, it is important to me that man enjoys being childlike from time to time. You know, ride a roller coaster with me, push me in a tire swing, take off his shoes and run through mud puddles. (I am not talking about doing this every day. I just mean that he should not be so stuffy that he would absolutely refuse to enjoy those simple things.)

And, I must admit to one really picky criteria......I hate poor grammar. I know it is really my problem and not that of the other person, but it is such an irritant that I can't usually get past it. I know my grammar and spelling are not perfect and my typing isn't either, but the constant use of slang and the slaughter of the English language is a real turn off.

Other than that, (LOL) I am pretty flexible.

well, i hate the fabio looking guys. any guy i have to fight with for time in front of the mirror is a no-no! of course i want someone that's gonna be honest too, even if he does make the mistake of cheating on me. i'd want to know. i don't really have a criteria. if i find someone i click with (and i think i have, wink, wink) then i'll know. he has to have a sarcastic sense of humor. i don't know why, but i love that. has to like music. a good singing voice doesn't hurt either. i want to be serenade! i think i'm just looking for someone with a good heart that cares about others. willing to help anyone out of a jam and doesn't expect anything from. they just do it to be a nice person. because that's how i am. i'm a total sweetheart.

I am looking for someone who makes me be more than what I am now. A girl to steal my breath, and make me chase it. Someone who; by being themselves; instigates me to strive harder in life to achieve more. Time and again I have found such creatures in life, but had something holding me back before. Now that I have set down the problems of old, I am looking for someone to make me feel that way again. I am ABLE to do so much more than I was before, and need someone to inspire the changes in me I haven't known to be possible yet. Growth is a part of life, I need a girl willing to grow with me. Ever touch somebody and it seems like they spark when you do?

Well I know who I am and what I like,and finding who I was ,well,lets just say it doesn't happen over night.
We set guidlines as to what it is we are attracted to in our profiles,and well we all have a preferance has to what "catches" our eye.
So in knowing what love is,what I like to do,intrests,morals,etc,I have to say that I need to meet someone,get to know who they really are,and the only way to do this ,to me,is by spending time in one anothers space,not putting guidlines on where its going,no need to rush into making plans for "a future",just go with the moments,if it feels good,keep it up.
Time will always be your best judge,time spent in each oters space will tell you even more.
One really never knows who one is,fantasy is what it is until time is spent,then the reality can tkae place.
Relationships are about choice,and we have many choices,time will be the best bet in making the right choice,best suited for the individual,knowing from the start that nothing is ever perfect,and working as one is just that,work.
Nothing on the surface,in general is really as it appears,actions have always spoke volume over words,for me anyway.



Just my opion ofcourse...

So are you saying move in with each other?

And as long as you are up to giving advice, what does a guy do when someone say's she likes him, but never talks to him?
(really hope this works)

I have a rule of thumb that I follow to "dating",and its also advice I give my friends.
Defintly not saying move in.What I am saying is,"date" for a year,you in her space,she in yours,talk,alot,hang out with one anothers friends,family and or foe,sure sleep at each others places,many nights,just have your own space for that year,more if need be.If in the end though,I strongly suggest that you not move in with her,and her not in with you,but that together ,as one,you join in getting a place that is "yours",it makes a world of diffrence.
And yes,before the year is up,alot of the time you think you have found,"the one",continue to wait it out,no real hurry with all you have been sharing.Or,if you find yourself making alot of allowances,or excuses,or either of you are having to say sorry,alot,its one of the signs to get out,to me it is.



As for giving adcve,am no doctor love thats for sure,but don't mind sharing my opion,it may be right,or it may be wrong,but it comes from intuition if that counts for anything...lol

I think it can be either,
A:She is extremly shy,but I doubt it,
B:It can be her way of "not" saying this is not what I want,so has to spare your feelings,
C:
She is not sure how she feels,but let her actions do the talking,they will give you the best advice.

Well, it used to be intelligence for me. I like to know that when I am having a conversation, it is going to go somewhere. I try not to be shallow.

Right now; the only requirement I have is tolerance. Just work on being my friend. I am in an un-trusting level of break-up recovery. The best thing right now is friends. Who knows...maybe it could lead somewhere later?

Aside from that, tolerance is going to be the thing I look for the most. I mean, I am not perfect. I screw up from time to time. Everybody does. No one is perfect.

your right, noone is perfect we all screw up.
Tolerance is a must..and patience;)

Yes...patience is also needed with me at the present time....

I know, hon...Me too.:)

Yea...and they have to let me cook....I am damn good at it.......;)

Yes, please! =0D

They have to want to have my children too....I would like a family some day......asking too much? :S

No, not asking too much.

Depends on that persons capabilties, and options, no?

Yes, I know. It is sad too. I mean, even if they can't have children....that doesn't mean I wouldn't stay with them....there are other options. But they would have to be ok with them.

Absolutey...Nicely said. All things can be discussd and worked on if communication is there...

Which brings me back to the intelligence thing. I mean, there are different levels of intelligence obviously. I am not the smartest guy around, but I am good in some areas. But as far as knowing what I want, it is a family. And if I were with a woman who was unable to carry a child....well, discussion of the options would come up eventually. I would want her to understand what we were discussing, rather than jump to conclusions.......wow, the nightmares of the past ....... *Shudder* :<
