As we grow up, we learn that even the one person that wasn't supposed to ever let us down, probably will. You'll have your heart broken and you'll break others' hearts. You'll fight with your best friend or maybe even fall in love with them, and you'll cry because time is flying by. So take too many pictures, laugh too much, forgive freely, and love like you've never been hurt. Life comes with no guarantees, no time outs, no second chances. you just have to live life to the fullest, tell someone what they mean to you and tell someone off, speak out, dance in the pouring rain, hold someone's hand, comfort a friend, fall asleep watching the sun come up, stay up late, and smile until your face hurts. Don't be afraid to take chances or fall in love and most of all, live in the moment because every second you spend angry or upset is a second of happiness you can never get back.
I'm a motivated, energetic, fun-loving person. I love being active, going out with friends, traveling, and trying new things. I love to cook, and host weekly girls-night-in at my house (while most of the girls' bfs get together and play poker). Most weekends you can find me out and about in DC or Arlington. While I love my social life, my career and education have been my focus recently.
I'm looking for someone who is honest, attentive, and has a sense of adventure. I'd like to meet someone who is driven in their career, and is as ambitious as I am. I would like to meet someone who can fall into step with my friends, who has a positive outlook on life, and who can make me laugh. I'm not looking for random hookups or creepy pickups, don't waste your time. I'm looking for a low-stress and drama-free relationship, I don't have the time or energy to sweat the small stuff, and I'm not interested in playing games.
Honesty is critical: My ex and I separated in April 2012, and he's moved back to Ohio, we have no chance of reconciliation. We got married too young, for the wrong reasons, and I should've called it off a long time ago. Hindsight is 20/20, and I'm slowing learning from my mistakes. Anyone whose been divorced can tell you it changes your view on relationships, and approach to dating.
Wanna know more? Send me a message. But don't bother asking for my number or trying to meet up after a few superficial exchanges. I'd like to get to know you here and when things feel mutually comfortable we can talk about a next step... Maybe its because I'm pessimistic about Internet dating :) trying to figure out exactly how this all works.
