Let's just hope the sparks continue to fly.

Adventures in online dating

A friend of mine at alpha Betty offered to rewrite my online dating profile. She did an awesome job! I thought I would test it out because I was so happy with it. check it out:

Tagline: Defying dating advice in record time

I’m about to say THE thing that you’re not supposed to blurt out when you’re single and looking: One day, I want to have kids.

If your mouse didn’t just fly like the wind toward that “back” button – hurrah! ;) Be assured, there is much more to me than a desire to have a family (and I’m hardly ready for kids right this second anyway!). I’m also a confident and caring singleton who takes life by the reins while enjoying the little stuff:

THINGS I LOVE: Creating my own happiness (at 31, I left my career in marketing to become a nurse), my awesome family, my hilariously cute dog, cooking with friends, sarcastic and dry wit, enjoying a Rickard’s Red on a hot summer day, following my heart, smart comedies like Dogma and Love Actually, Pad Thai with spring rolls, getting a great run in, my constant musical companions (David Gray, Ben Harper and DMB), taking pride in my home, making lists and lots more!


THINGS I DON’T LOVE: Going out on a cold winter day (I prefer staying in with a glass of wine!), mean pranks, chronic complainers, having to guess what people are thinking and feeling, mushy peas and a refusal to try new things.


ABOUT YOU (I HOPE!): You know what you want out of life and follow your passion. You’re comfortable showing your interest and that you care. You have a healthy relationship with your family. You’re considerate and sensitive but not afraid to speak your mind. You love to laugh – a lot. You’re happily independent but eager to share your life with the right person. Oh, and it’s a bonus if you’re a lanky guy with a bit of a geek vibe – but looks are hardly everything!

If you’re interested, drop me a line!

Since posting it earlier this week, I’ve been keeping a log of weird people who have contacted me online. I often wonder if they even read my profile. Today, I received two emails from guys in their late-50s… even though the very first line of my profile says I want kids. Umm… really? You want a kid before you’re 60? Bah!
_________

I also got an email from a guy who said: your profile really intrigued me. You seem like an honest and sincere person and these are qualities I really value. When I clicked on his profile his status said he was married and his occupation was vagina inspector. So I guess you value honesty and sincerity in others but not in yourself?
____________

Another guy who “smiled” at me had this profile. I have no words…

Rules;

1) if you are not gonna meet me in person, dont message me please, Im not on here for endless cyber-chat.
2) if you play head games, dont message me, Ive had enough of that from women on this site. I can spot you coming.
3) if you dont live in moncton or the surrounding area, your wasting my time and yours, tried the long distance thing twice, doesnt work, never will, not with me.
4) I cannot stress this enough, YOU MUST BE WILLING TO COMMITT TO A LONG TERM RELATIONSHIP. Im not looking to date, I have enough friends, and if I wanted to get laid, Id pay for it. less headaches that way.
5) I dont care what you look like, I dont care how old you are, I dont care if you have a job. I dont care if your on welfare. I DO CARE IF YOU LIE ABOUT THESE THINGS.
6) Last but not least, if your name is KENDRA, dont message me for any reason, I dont need the BS.

Now, this is me,

I work hard, 2 jobs, I provide for the people I care about. Ive raised 6 kids, all are doing well for themselves. Im open to anyone who has kids, I would even have more if the need was there, I am open to marriage, but it would have to be after a lengthy relationship, been stung to many times. BUT, I do show my feeling freely, not afraid to show my feminine side I guess you women would call it. I do have emotions, hurt me and you will see them.

WARNING. when I meet someone I like, I put alot of time and effort into it, if you dont want to move forward, or are scared of committment, your in the wrong profile.

I will add more as I see fit

Did you fall on your head or something?

Why, yes I did!

Friday night I went out to celebrate the end of the school year. I can honestly say that if I did anything stupid, it’s because I fell on my head. I had a bit of a gathering at my place, which was loads of fun. Late in the evening we decided to go to a bar. In a rush I left my house and forgot my keys on the end table. So, around 3 am, in an attempt to get in my house through the back door, I fell down the patio steps and landed on my forehead. Wanna see some pics?


I also banged up my leg pretty bad!


Like my friend Kevin told me: Dude, you need supervision when you drink.

Single – take 2,451

We talked. We broke-up. I told him I didn’t think he felt about me the way I felt about him. He said no, I don’t think so. There was a bunch of other stuff, but essentially that’s what it boils down to. He also added that he was 75% certain he didn’t want any more kids and that was weighing heavily on him, so I guess I did the right thing.

It was fucking hard because I actually liked this one and when he said, you’re right, I don’t think I feel the same way you do I could feel my heart breaking. :-(

I think it's a good thing that I broke it off though.

At the very least he showed me I could have those lovey, fuzzy feelings again, and God bless him, he broke the dreaded three year curse! :-)


...

The talk is set for tonight

I just gave him a call and told him I wanted to see him tonight. I wonder if my self-confidence influences his reactions? I usually ask him if he would like to do something and he is sometimes wishy-washy in his answer, but when I demanded to see him tonight he said, sounds great! Honestly, I wish he had hesitated because it would have helped me gain more confidence in my decision (by being mad at him). The fact that he was eager to see me, reminds me that I’m going to miss him after this. :-( Oh well, it’s like a band-aid: rip it off and eventually it will heal, right?




...

The worst is over... exam wise, anyway.

I finished my fourth exam this morning and now I don’t have anything until Thursday! Wheeeee! I’m done all the though ones and all I have left are the last two easier ones. Today I’m taking the entire day off and doing fun things I haven’t had time to do in a while like clean the house, do laundry and groceries and maybe even head to the dog park with Pacha.

This morning's exam went really well. It was a stressful one as it was biology and my mid-term didn't go so well. I'm quite confident that I passed that exam hands down, but now we wait and see just how well I actually did.

I’m going to try to have the talk with Mr. Maybe tonight so, as usual, I will keep you posted.
