I think its time to lay it on the line. Complete transparency…
I feel very happy and content with myself, in every way – career, health, etc. – except I do very much want to find a life partner. Life partner it would need to be; I don’t do it often, but when I commit, I commit for good and expect the same. At the risk of sounding overly confident, I believe I bring a lot of good qualities to the table. I am educated with a couple degrees and I am quite street smart as well. I am an entrepreneur- I have a retained executive search practice and also own a small satellite tv dealership. I have some very unique and interesting experiences. I’ve lived abroad. I have worked hard, invested and saved and I have never been in a position where I need to be saved by someone financially. I come from a good established family, which is very close knit. I have never been lazy. I am a high self-monitoring person who spends a lot of time on health and fitness activities and also enjoy getting fixed up as a girl should be. I have built a nice home and a lifestyle around me. I’m not waiting for someone to provide me with a lifestyle.
I believe I provide the whole package and seek someone who does the same. Which means I want to look up to my guy and be impressed by him. He needs to be in a great place – in his career and where/how he lives, and even with his ex or other family members. I don’t believe in dating when you are not ready and have found that most people online are not. Ready to me is when you can take a look inward at yourself and say, I look my best, I feel my best, I have time for this, I have means for this, I have arrived exactly at where I want to be and I want to share it with someone – I have a lot to offer. That’s ready. If your kid is sleeping on your couch and doesn’t have a bed or you are in a settlement or custody battle with your ex or if you only have alternating weekends and 1 weeknight available to date (and aren’t willing to get a sitter) or recently sold most of your assets and are living on your boat, then I implore you – don’t waste my time or yours. Get it together; and once you are, we can talk.
As you can tell, I’m pretty direct. I’m also highly responsible while quite whimsical/adventurous – yes, you can be both! I am loving and giving to a fault sometimes. I am told that I am very fun and also that I can be overly analytical, impatient and sensitive at times – its so true. But at least my heart is mostly on my sleeve for you to see. My guy will have enough confidence to tell me how he feels and communicate well, helping me work through the three previously mentions quirks. I like a refined gentleman; i'm most attracted to a clean cut man in a suit. I wouldn't completely rule out the opposite, but i haven't yet brought home a tattooed cowboy surf dude. Honestly is mandatory.
Lastly, you should know I love kids. I love other people’s kids and I have a 3-year-old son of my own. My two focuses in life moving forward will be my partner and my family. Hoping there’s someone out there who feels and wants the same…
