Date someone special from Fernie, Canada. So many people are on here looking for Ms perfect or Mr perfect. Do such people really exist? I don't think so!! I am not looking for my knight in shining armour or Prince Charming...I am looking for someone that is happy, healthy and good looking...to me!!!Someone that wants to really get to know what I am all about, hear what I have to say and support me in the things I do. I hope that those things are important to you too.
From past experience, I have found that I often "settle" for things, even if I am not happy about it. I would never want to try to change someone. I believe that we are all unique. I may never find my Mr.Right but I am hoping to get to know some of you and see what you are all about...don't worry if you are shy...cuz I am too!
I love so many things:
camping, sewing, knitting,
bbq's, pigRoasts, sandy beaches
summer,star gazing, exploring, family
making people laugh, making people smile
listening, watching good movies
listening to good music,
home renno's, country life, the hounds
drives on the back roads, being outdoors
mountain biking, skiiing
hugging, kissing, cuddling
soooooo much more! I will tell you about them if you ask me to!
I am easy going and easy to get along with (most of the time!) I am very independant and financially stable. I have many great qualities but then again I am definitely not perfect. I don't smoke or do drugs(never have)and I prefer a man that doesn't smoke or do drugs. Not into the bar scene(meaning partying and staying out all night) and prefer to be with smaller groups of people.
I'm hoping to meet someone who makes me laugh, who is genuine, kind, considerate, a truly nice person, a gentleman, with good values, a happy disposition, a good sense of humour and a zest for life.
I like a person who is outgoing, active, with varied interests, who is confident, smart, resourceful, and has a positive outlook on life.
I love to chat and get to know someone...in person is sooo much better! I believe in honesty and being true to yourself. I am a woman of my word.
I have learned alot of lessons in my life.... But I still hold my head up high and I am proud of who I have become. One thing that I have learned is that I don't NEED a man to make my life complete. I WANT a man that can compliment my life...not complicate it. I would rather be alone than be in an unhealthy relationship.
My friends enjoy my company...I do have a good sense of humour and enjoy being around people who are fun/border line crazy!. I am also a good listener and hope you are too!
I do have a family and I enjoy spending time with my kids. My oldest two have families of their own now and I am blessed to have 6 beautiful grandkids! I have a daughter who still lives at home. She is 17 and prefers to be with her friends alot more now so that frees up alot of my time.
There is so much more about me I would love to share. I will tell you right now...I am not a Barbie Doll ...I am much more fun than that!!!!So if any of this has sparked your interest, don't be shy...I would love to hear from you!
