If I were to write an online advertisement searching for my perfect mate how would it read? How could I describe myself in 1000 words or less? How do you cram a lifetime of experiences into one spellbinding paragraph?
When I read an ad for a man I look for something easy to read by someone who knows how to use spell check. If he describes his personality does he mention honesty, loyalty and respect? Most important what are his interests? Does he describe himself as a good communicator? Does he mention his good sense of humor without bragging about being the life of the party? Is he a renaissance man, interested in numerous things or does he only mention his Harley and his beer? Does his picture show he has had a hair cut within the last three months? Does he have any hair? Does he mention his dog? (25 points for that one!)
I would describe myself as honest, down to earth, not afraid to communicate, able to laugh at myself, looking for a respectful relationship, a man who would give me kisses and hugs and who would enjoy receiving the same from me. I’m a low maintenance (never had a Nordstrom credit card) blue jeans type of person; enjoy recreational hiking and bike riding (no “century” distances, please), horseback riding, making jewelry, and reading new books to discover more about the world around us. The most important item about me: I love and am loved by my wonderful Border Collies and expect my man to understand this relationship and not feel threatened by their energy and demands. I am also involved in the world of competitive dog obedience and tracking.
I’m an employed government employee, college educated, a magazine columnist, 5’4”, working towards a goal of 128 pounds, who enjoys eating healthy food. I love the state of Oregon, walking along Tolovana Beach and would like to spend more time exploring it and see the beauty around us. You introduce me to snow shoeing and panning for gold and I’ll introduce you to spelunking and a great place to find thunder eggs.
