Kind hearted single mom woman seeks male counterpart (age 37)

It's funny, but the things I've needed most I have found here on Wacco. For instance, I found a wonderful conscious community to live in, great jobs, referrals for services, advice, jokes, community events and Wacco ideas!! So now I am going to take this a step further and see if it is possible to find love on Wacco too. The following is a personal ad that I posted once before on Craigslist with very little luck. (biting my tongue rather than commenting on Craigslist personals!) Please reply privately if you are interested in getting to know me and publicly if you have feedback, comments, advice etc... (Gosh I feel so brave right now!)

*********************


I am a friendly and kind woman who enjoys hiking, biking, camping, exploring new places, movies, walks, days at the beach, board games, gardening, cooking (especially with someone special),reading books (usually several in progress at a time) and watching the birds.

I do listen well, give and expect respect, laugh at seemingly ordinary contradictions in life, volunteer in my community, snuggle, eat my veggies (and ice cream though not together), recycle reduce and reuse, take responsibility for my actions or lack of actions (not getting action lately ;P), generously share my affections, collect heart shaped rocks, consider other points of view and communicate clearly and respectfully.

I don't drink,use drugs, focus more on work than my personal life or have NSA sex. I don't wish to be involved with someone who has any of these habits. No offense, I just have found that stuff limits the depth of relationships. I also have children and am not willing to expose them or my heart to that sort of lifestyle.

I am looking for a kind-hearted man with similar interests who desires a monogamous LTR with lots of love and affection and without unnecessary drama or game play. Bonus points if you're a single parent! Playdates aren't just for kids ;)

Good luck in your search for love, wherever you find it.
