Who am I?
This, I believe, is the most difficult part. I am not one to try to sell myself, I am who I am. I made a choice many years ago to focus on raising my children on my own and putting some things on hold.
I majored in Biochemistry, became an EEG tech, spent the last 15 years working with children and their families in many ways (at-risk, abused, day care, and more) and have a Bachelors in Criminal Justice Administration. Odd mix I agree but I may combine them all one day.
My youngest will be flying the coop soon and this has made me consider whether or not I want to remain alone. I still find this whole meeting people on the internet and dating is a bit frightening. I am also left wondering if this format of meeting people really works (currently leaning towards the 'it is a load of bull' side).
I try to always be honest (sometimes to a fault), helpful, considerate,a good friend, and so on. I have been known to be a bit sarcastic (said in a sarcastic tone of course).
I do not ride mountain bikes or rock climb and all that. I have/had medical issues all my life which do/did not allow for me to participate in sports and extreme physical activities. No, I do not have a slim and sleek physique and I may never have one. However; at the end of the day I will be that person one can call a friend, talk with, laugh with, argue with about silly things or real issues, and depend upon when needed or wanted. We all know our looks will fade, who we are inside will not.
Family should always come first. If you have children or other familial responsibilities they should be your first priority no matter what.
I am not a person who believes in a supreme deity. I live by a few simple rules. The Golden Rule, of course, and I believe there is a universal right and wrong and one should do what is right because it is right and not for whatever rewards one may be promised.
Pet Peeves:
Rude and inconsiderate people. Drivers who tailgate!! Profiles where the spelling and grammar errors are painful to read, there is spell check on here for Pete's sake!!! PLEASE do not wink at me or 'like' my profile or anything else then become a 'profile unavailable' it is really annoying and falls under that rude and inconsiderate category. Simply send me a message and allow ample time for a response.
Now that I have been here for a bit I have realized a few things. I do not mind being single, I am quite happy with myself and by myself. I do not have any empty spaces or holes in my life that need to be filled. I have decided I will be fine alone, but if I happen to meet someone whom I like spending time with and he does with me, well that would be kinda nice too. :-)
Above all else, do not forget to Smile!

Meet someone special from Alabama, United States. Live, love, laugh. Cliche, I know, but that about sums it up. I am a pretty driven person - at work and at home. I am also very opinionated (I'm a female Leo - we're all like that - LOL), so if you want a shy wallflower, then I am not for you! I almost never sit still, but do love to have someone to cuddle with when I finally do wind down. I was really fortunate to be in a relationship with one of my soulmates for many years. Since he passed away, I've met some great guys, but I'm still looking for my next happily ever after. Yes, I believe everyone has more than one soulmate and I believe they each come into (and move out of) your life for a reason, sometimes we understand why and sometimes we don't. I love a man who can make me laugh, who knows how to cook, and who looks forward to coming home after a hard day at work. I love to go out, but not every night, and I love to throw parties at my awesome home in Cornville. I have a 9 year old boy who is off the charts brilliant and is, of course, the most important person in the world to me. I am into yoga - especially Hot Yoga, and have started taking bellydancing lessons (it's harder than it looks!). I also love to run and hike and love exploring beautiful Northern Arizona. I have a great job and amazing friends and am pretty happy in my life, but I am definitely a relationship person and would love to have someone special in my life. All I ask is that you be honest, trustworthy, considerate, kind, passionate, affectionate, physically fit, self-supporting, have no addictions, love kids, be funny (and have good sense of humor) and be romantiic, intelligent and thoughtful - or some combination of most of those - is that too much to ask? But seriously, I may as well put it out there, what have I got to lose? One final thing - if you email me and I don't respond, please don't be offended. I don't want to waste your time (or mine) if I don't think there is an attraction there. If there is one thing I've noticed on these dating sites, there are a lot of us out there, so good luck in your search and wish me luck in mine!

Date men and women from Alabama, United States. Happy, healthy, down-to-earth, and well-balanced guy looking for a woman with similar qualities. I'm confident, self-assured, and passionate about my life, but I'm always a little reserved about writing some laundry list of things to say how great I am. However, I always strive to be a great person. Mark Twain said, "Stay away from small people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can somehow become great." Like I said, I always strive to be a great person, and to try to make others feel great too.
I am seeking a confident and independent woman. I want someone who will challenge me, yet not control me. Ladies, most men don't have a fear of commitment, they have a fear of control. They just don't know it, and most women don't either. I want to meet someone who can communicate their honest thoughts and feelings, and is secure enough to appreciate me doing the same thing.
I am a quite unique individual, and I love that about myself. If you're looking for someone who is trying to be someone else, or appear to be something other than themselves, or equates self-esteem with material things, then you might want to click on the next person in your search.
I am intelligent, educated, fairly cultured and well-rounded, and I would like to meet someone with a comparable background. I'm very well read, and I would like to meet someone with whom I can exchange books, and ideas, thoughts, and opinions in a respectful and intellectually stimulating way. But don't ever ask me to go to a book club because that's not happening.
I have very eclectic tastes in music. I know, I know, everybody says they have eclectic tastes in music but I really do. I once listened to Brazilian music almost exclusively for a year. I love Bossa Nova. I would like to meet someone whom I don't have to explain to who The Shins or The Killers are. I don't listen to old rock music. It's not that it's bad music necessarily, and I can appreciate it's impact on society and its place in music history, but I've already listened to it. Why should I waste time listening to something I've already heard hundreds of times before, when there is so much new, interesting, and really great music out there that I've never heard before? It's the same with concerts. I would rather go to a Turkish Prison than to a Crosby, Stills & Nash concert - and I like Crosby, Stills & Nash. In fact, if John Lennon rose from the dead for a Beatles reunion tour, I would not go to see them, unless they asked me to play backup guitar, and paid me, a lot.
Lastly, I love to play golf, and I was really hoping to find someone who shares my passion for the game. I like to do other things too, so I'm not going to turn some poor woman into a golf widow. I've just always thought that it would be awesome to spend 4 hours playing golf with my best friend and partner instead of just some dude at the golf course. Plus, it's a great date. You can learn more about a person in one round of golf than you can from years of cocktail parties.
