Check out my picture in my profile. I finished College in 2005 and have been a full time teacher since. In my free time I enjoy hanging out with my friends and family, being outdoors and swimming when possible. I just learned how to water ski this past summer and can't wait to get out again next summer! One of my ambitions in life is to travel to Italy...I just might make it there next summer :) My friends would say I am confident, slighty goofy and down to earth. I am looking for someone who is willing to have fun but yet works hard at what they do and takes pride in it. Someone who loves to be active and DOES NOT smoke. If you like to experience new things and travel to new places, I would love to meet you!

Hi! I am trying this site again with the hope that there may be someone out there who will compliment me well. I am a believer in forming a friendship and getting to know someone. I like to consider myself pretty non-judgemental except for personality and values. I am a special education teacher who takes my job seriously but knows there is so much more to life than the work -world. I am seeking someone who also feels the same way, as many men I have met in the past let their jobs consume them. I am kind, compassionate, sensitive, silly, shy at first, affectionate, and generous. I like to work out to get the stress out and am getting back into kickboxing. I love being outside; very into nature. I like hiking, swimming, biking, and tons more outside. Very big into beaches and the ocean! Animals are a big part of my life. I am a cat person so if you don't like cats, we may not match. I am seeking a male who holds good values, is affectionate, funny, likes to make others smile, is optimistic about life, and wants to get out and see new things. Someone who is not looking to judge or shop around on this site. If you would like to meet someone who is kind and treats others with respect, or if you are looking for a companion to spend time with, please get in touch! :)I am searching for a male who knows how to be a good friend and companion. He should be compassionate, non-judgemental, gentle, and caring towards myself as well as others. I like a guy who is not afraid to share his feelings and is a good listener. Someone who knows how to make me laugh is also a great thing. I like someone who enjoys doing little things to make me smile. Huggers are great!

| How to Know if Your Love is Real |
You've met someone great online. The two of you seem to have hit it off and memories are building with each passing day. But how do you know if it is truly love that will last or if your feelings and the relationship are just a temporary attraction?
In a lifetime, the average person falls in love at least four times. But is it really love? Here are the communication, love, and respect signs to be aware of before you decide if the one you're dating is the right one for you:
I. Communication
Being honest with each other in a relationship is very important and it is also important that you get to know the person properly before you commit yourself. How well do you know each other? Is the only talking you do bedroom talk?
Good Signs:
» You talk openly about life issues such as finances, children, things that frighten you, and each other's ambitions in life.
» You can argue and come to some sort of compromise at the end of it.
» You are open and honest with each other about your feelings.
Warning Signs:
» You only know his favorite color and what paper he reads. You are afraid to ask him in-depth questions about his life for fear of rejection or for fear of what you might find out.
» You don’t discuss how you are feeling with each other and the frustration builds up in each of you, often causing you to resent each other. » Neither of you is willing to forgive the other.
II. Love
A long lasting relationship/marriage can rarely survive without love. So is it love or are you just kidding yourself?
Good Signs:
» In a crisis you stand by each other no matter what the result.
» You make sacrifices to make the other person happy.
» You are truthful and honest and don’t keep secrets from one another.
» You are emotionally, physically, and mentally compatible. » You are friends as well as lovers.
Warning Signs:
» When the going gets tough, your partner gets going.
» Your partner has an eye for members of the opposite sex and has proved to be untrustworthy.
» Your partner lies to you about where he/she has been and only confesses when you find out the truth.
» There is little physical affection, laughter, or communication between the two of you.
» Your has been unfaithful on numerous occasions.
III. Respect
A relationship is about friendship, respect, and acceptance of one another. When there is lack of respect for the other trust and respect is replaced by suspicion and can slowly grow to hatred.
Good Signs:
» You are aware of your partner’s faults and are able to accept some imperfections.
» You support and encourage each other’s individual interests and identity. » You take the time to listen and understand the other’s point opinion.
Warning Signs:
» You criticize each other in front of others.
» Your partner will not give you space to indulge in your interests and wants to spend every minute of the day with you.
» You are constantly struggling to live up to your partner's standards or the person you think your partner wants you to be.» You can’t forgive and/or forget each other’s mistakes.
Be aware and objective about your relationship. If you can't nurture it, then it may be time to leave. If it's strong, then building upon mutual love, respect, and communication will only make it stronger. |
