I am 5'3", 270 lbs, short brown hair, brown eyes. I am considered a free thinker. I am quite reserved upon first meeting someone. Please don't regard that as me being cold or playing games. I have a big heart and I wear it proudly on my sleeve. For that reason, I have been hurt many times. I refuse to let that bring me down. I am strong, confident, intelligent, and self-reliant. I have my own goals that I am working towards. I am currently high school educated, but will be returning to school in fall 2010 to pursue a premed major in Biology. I do work and own my own car. I consider myself to be stable. I may still live at home, but I am in no way living off my parents. I have been divorced since May, and I have no hang ups about it. I have moved on from that part of my life. I love to read, write, cook, take random drives, cuddle on the couch, listen to music, and spend time with the people I care most about. I am looking to settle down, but I am not looking to rush the process. I want to be real with you, open up to you about my past, present, and our future. I want to start a family in the near future. I want a steady, fulfilling relationship with an outstanding man. The ideal man possesses qualities that allow him to stand out from the rest. He is educated, well mannered, successful in his own right, employed and established in his job. He is single or divorced, kids or no kids that is not an issue. He too seeks a successful, long term relationship. Must be family oriented, caring, confident, and full of compion. I really want to get to know you first and see if we click on a certain level. Please no drugs at all. Smoking and very light social drinking is ok. Thanks for viewing my profile.
