I'm young but incredibly mature. I would like someone that can balance the two as well, meaning be silly young adults but enjoy a glass of wine. My quirkiness knows no bounds nor my wit and sense of humor. The simplest things in life thrill me while the grandeur make it the adventure. Regardless of how terrible things are or how bad a fight is escalating it has always been in me to make light of the situation. I am also very animated. Terribly independent. I'm financially sound and responsible as well as being able to splurge when it's well deserved. Music is a huge part of my life and when I mean music I mean underground metal. It's a community all in its own and often is something to keep up with, especially with the friends I have in it. I was formerly in the military and worked in the mechanical field, men surround me and were often the only friends I was able to make. I would like a man that won't be threatened by this, has a sense of self confidence and can come to terms with me being an honest and good hearted woman. It was my job long ago but every so often I am still contacted by my fellow veterans or I make it a point to attend a reunion with some of them. I am a single mother, 100% single mother and my responsibilities lie with my child first. I believe no matter the relationship, adults need to realize that children come first. I love my child very much and will not put another adult before them, but I will certainly do my best to make time for dating and the like. I'm not looking for merely a father for the child, I am looking for someone for myself first and if the relationship between the man and my kid works out then I will press forward. If you are a single father I will respect you just the same with you and your children. Family comes first and foremost. When it comes to children in a family the children come first before the adults. They're a responsibility- not a choice. I am conservative however have my liberal sides because to be completely close minded only asks for further ignorance and the ceasing of progression. However, a person without morals or a sturdy belief system is doomed to harlot to society. Science, literature, politics, philosophy, American history, and writing are major parts of my personality as well as a major part of my life. Intelligence and conversation. If you lack luster you lack meaning. I say what I mean and I mean what I say. Sometimes my words are weighty but they aren't without reason or consequence and I will stand by my actions and take all responsibility that goes along with it. For the most part... I'd like a man to be sturdy in his own life, willing to give, share and help all the while not minding the personal space that is what a person sometimes needs. Financially responsible (whether you're pulling yourself out of a rut or already stable) but not a penny pincher, a cook but is able to enjoy the plates I offer to bring to the table and a man confident to know and act on things that are right. I could write a novel but for now this will do.

A "Taste of..." in town, or lunch somewhere perhaps. Something different and out of the ordinary.

I've done quite a bit in my life and can't necessarily think of anything off the top of my head that I would like to try that I haven't done so already, but there's a willing and openness to try whatever someone else suggests.

A man that isn't overly emotional or sensitive. I don't mind a man that knows when or how to cry or show a sensitive side to his woman, as that is what a man does IN FRONT of his woman, but I don't want to be the man in the relationship. Responsibility and sense of respect for a family, or his family, is incredibly important.
