Notjstanothrgrl, 39

I'm looking for love...are you?? My name is Kristi. I am an outgoing, personable, fun to be around, intelligent, witty, spontaneous, affectionate, beautiful, funny woman who is looking for love. I haven't been in a relationship in a little over 3 years, by choice. I had my heart broken and felt I wasn't ready to take on another relationship until I was completely ready to give it my all. Now that I'm ready, finding a good man is rare and hard to come by. Needless to say, I have resorted to this online dating stuff. My expectation aren't high but I am optimistic. I am not the materialistic type of girl but dont get me wrong I do enjoy nice things. Don't we all? I would much rather be given a nice ------- passionate kiss then a dozen roses. I've learned a lot by being single over these past years but the main thing is the fact that I have found myself. I am an independent woman who doesn't need a man to wait on her hand and foot. I don't need to be given everything because I know I can get it myself. On the other hand, I can only give myself so much love. I'll admit it, I'm lonely. I have a lot of love to give and I want to find the right man who will accept my love and not take advantage of it. I've been cheated on, lied to, and deceived. It hurts! I've learned that I am not willing to accept that type of behavior in future relationships and have also learned that I never want the person I am with to have to endure that type of behavior from myself. With that being said I'm not the girl that is going to mess around behind your back, hind things from you, or lead you on in any way. It would be a waste of not only your time but mine as well. I need a man who loves me for me. I need a best friend and a lover.
