At first I am quite shy, don't expect me to make the first move because I typically will not. If we were face to face, I would make flirty eye contact. But here, I will admire from afar or mutual match and see if you come to me; if not, I just ume you are not interested. I like to be pursued. I'm sorry but am not interested in long-distance relationships; they don't work for me. OK, about me: I'm a 44 yr old mother of a 20yr old son, whom I adore; but rarely see. I'm dealing with the empty nest thing and having a hard time with it. So with that being said, if you have young children, that is not a problem for me! I was married for 20 years and have been divorced for 5. I have to say I don't like being single. I miss the companionship, the closeness, the having someone to talk to. I am a very domestic woman, in some respects very old-fashioned in that I love to take care of my man and my home. I love to cook and keep my home nice. That's about all that is old fashioned about me though! (Ok other than wanting the man to make the first move!) I am a woman who knows what she wants and will settle for no less, life is too short to settle. I'm independent and am not looking for someone to take care of me, but at the same time, refuse to take care of anyone. The deal maker or breaker for me is the kiss. If the kiss is good, I am putty in your hands! If not, call me gone. I am very loving, caring and pionate in everything I do; from my work to my interpersonal relationships. I put my all into everything I do, and expect the same from those around me. If I am into you, there will be no doubt in your mind. I've had my share of the whole 'fwb/nsa' thing. That is not what I'm not looking for. That is available in any bar. That is not to say that whatever it is that I have with a man has to be a lifelong commitment, but I would really like to have one man who only wants one woman. I'm not looking to get married or move in together, but not ruling anything out. The way I look at it, if it feels good then go with it. Of course I would love nothing more than to find "the ONE" and walk hand-in-hand into the sunset; but I'd rather find someone who loves to love and be loved and we don't have to put a label on it! I consider myself very positive natured, intelligent and very sensual. I love to kiss and to be held by big strong arms. Big arms and chests are my weaknesses...and I LOVE tattoos! I like tall men, tend to go for the bad boys, but that hasn't worked out too well for me thus far! I love to laugh and have fun. I can exhibit cl beyond what anyone might expect but can also hang with the dirtiest and raunchiest bunch of guys and not bat an eye. I've been called "sultry" and "seductive" and "flirty." I am loyal, honest, reliable, and genuine. I do my best to answer all emails, but will admit if yours is just plain offensive or obviously the same email you copy and paste and send to everyone, sorry! Frankly, if you can't take the time to personalize an email, I am not wasting my time replying to it. I look forward to some intelligent conversation! Don't be shy, or we will never know!
