Discreet MILF, Evanston, Illinois

g the work I've always wanted to do, but had never pushed myself to do. The road I'm on now is leading me in the right direction. It would be nice to have someone on the journey with me. I've gone on some fun dates lately. But even after a handful of dates with the same man there's just no connection. I think all the men I've dated are perfect, but so far none have been perfect for me. I'm starting to wonder if I even know what I'm looking for. I guess for me conversation should come easy. We should be able to get lost in it. I want someone who is open-minded to new ideas. Maybe it's doing a bit of talking as we're taking a walk, in the car headed to a game, or on a patio listening to music having a good drink. I'm not usually one for much romance. I don't need a man to buy me flowers or shower me with gifts. Quality time together is really what I want. And that doesn't have to happen every day or every night. Space is also a good thing. Sometimes that makes quality time even better. I'd like someone who isn't stuck on money, but is ambitious. I would prefer someone who is into community work like I am. It would be nice if you didn't live in your parents' basement, had 5 divorces to your name, $50k in debt (school loans don't count), a rampant drug addiction, or are a complete control freak. What I would like is someone who has a higher education and is intelligent. I don't need Einstein, but it kind of goes back to the whole conversation thing. . . the more you know the more you can talk about things. The only real requirement I have is he must have a wicked sense of humor. Laughter and music are two staples of my day. If he's tall, dark, and handsome that wouldn't hurt either, but it's not a requirement. It helps if you're gainfully employed, too. I don't need you to buy me anything, but would prefer that I don't have to buy you everything either. So there's a start. If you write to me please go beyond "Hi, how are you?" Show me that you can carry conversation. If you respond without a photo I won't answer your email. Put your favorite music artist in the subject of your email. And you must include a pic. Also include a detail about Champaign so I know you're real. Tell me what fun event happened tonight downtown.

an real women. Women who are imperfect, women who are... just people. Who exist not just for your pleasure. I see an awful lot of ads on here for men who want some bizarre imaginary friend kind of woman, often much younger, who has to look like something he has seen on TV or in movies, who has to act like a mechanical doll or something out of a hollywood romcom. I see a lot of ads from men who clearly dislike or even hate women for not living up to this unrealistic standard. Men who are angry at women for being real, ordinary people. I know a lot of us women bash on men, too, and it's certainly easy to fall into. But truthfully, I like a man who has some testosterone, some spine, but is NOT MEAN. Mean is a sign of weakness. I like smart, I like a bit of swagger. But confidence is not the same as arrogance. I'm looking for a man who doesn't have the strange, hollywood-fed sense of entitlement to a fantasy woman. Annnnnnnddd... I'm looking for a real, long term relationship. I'm a fat, real human, with a job, a house, a car, and a fairly homebody lifestyle - I have horses, a cow, chickens, ducks, dogs, cats, and a turkey. I heat with wood. I'm overeducated and not ashamed of it. I like ordinary things like checking out the flea market, buying veggies from the latino vendors, hunting for treasures or schlock. When the budget permits, I like to shoot competitively. I enjoy baking and cooking when I have someone to share it with. Movies, yes - lots. TV, not so much, although I do sometimes watch Walking Dead, always Spartacus, and have been catching up on Breaking Bad on netflix. Don't need or want fancy. I want a brainy man who likes to be cherished and admired, who is worthy of my admiration. Who has not been emasculated by modern metro expectations, but is not a dick. No tobacco, no drugs, no NASCAR, no wife. I'm SWF, 46, nonsmoker, DDF. If any of this strikes a chord, drop me a note. If you just feel the need to be hateful, please refrain. Best of luck to you all.
