I am happy with my life and myself, although I am in the process of making improvments. I'm not looking for perfection, I'm not perfect and I don't expect you to be either. What am I looking for? The exception to everything, no matter what qualities you are looking for, or what you think you want there is always going to be that one exception that in which case none of those things matter. SO no list of qualities, no must haves or have nots....cause I don't beleive you can find the exception with a shopping list. I like to get to know someone before a meeting takes place, I'm not talking pen pals but enough time through e-mail and phone to know that neither one of us is a loon....lol....I'm mature enough not to expect too much too soon and I don't want that expectation of me either. Okay, if you don't have a picture posted I may return your e-mails but I'm not going to meet someone unless 1) I know their full name, and contact information 2) I have talked with them a suffcient amount of time to gauge if we're compatible and 3) I will have seen at least one picture of them. At this point in time its dangerous to meet anyone without taking precautions and that should be understood. Please read my profile and note my age, body type, etc. Personally I could care less if you're not into my type, to each his own, but I'm not looking to waste anyone's time and I don't want to have misconceptions about who I am.:angel:
