I consider myself a quite laid back individual. If you get the opportunity to know me, then you're opinion may change....lol. I'm a single mother to a son who means the world to me. It's not easy but, life was never promised to be easy for any of us. There is an unfortunate stigma that single parents (men or women) just settle for anything or anyone. I personally can say, that my mindset will not allow that. I'm not seeking a pop corn replacement father for my son nor someone who thinks they're my father but, simply someone who can accept me for me, flaws and all. None of us are perfect so, if you're looking for the "perfect girl", good luck. But at the end of the day I would hope if you get the chance to know me, that ONE will feel that I'm perfect to him.Could this be you?...A man with patience, someone compassionate and not afraid to show it, a good communicator because without that in any relationship, it's pretty much a done deal. A man that understands that regardless of where our friendship goes, you're not just gaining one new friend...my son is an extension of me :). If I don't come with drama, please don't feel the need to bring any my way. Like I said, I'm a quiet individual and don't want the extra disruption. I'm not one to ask for much but, time and affection would be two in particular that I won't be shy to request. I am a believer that a relationship should be 100/100, not 50/50, not 60/40, not 70/30 but 100/100. If I give you my 100%, I only expect the same in return. It's only fair.If you think that my requests are not too big to fill, and we're pretty much on the same page, by all means say so ;).**P.S. I'm not a short female so, my preference would be someone taller than me with or without heels ;-).Way too often people make their mouths say anything. To me dating is like playing spades...Never show your hand but play to win!
