An honest & supportive woman who enjoys laughter, playful banter, and weekend drives with no destination in mind. Known for being positive & fun-loving with a calm understanding nature, the person friends turn to when their sky is falling, as a fantastic listener I prefer communication over emotional drama.
As a creative intellectual, I enjoy learning or trying new things & am always up for an adventure. Well rounded I am just as comfortable out hiking as I am trying a new restaurant or curled up on a couch with a good book or unwinding to a movie. I have a wide list of hobbies & interests (some include traveling, photography, cooking, sports & being outdoors) and am willing to try something new with my partner.
My two greatest weaknesses. I love classic cars & wherever possible I stop to help others. Three, hiking when living in Alberta I used to go for hours in the backcountry.
With a successful career in the medical industry, I am ambitious but always make time for others and maintain a balanced lifestyle. Having been financially independent & self-assured for years I do not have social media, am not a crowd-follower, and am not materialistic… quite honestly, I would be far more impressed if you say you volunteer than if you drove up in a BMW.
Finally, what am I looking for?
Someone normal. Someone with a good career, education and who can contribute to my life just as I would to theirs.
My father (PhD), who treats everyone the same no matter if they are a company's CEO or a maintenance worker, was my greatest influence growing up. Not from XX am looking to meet someone from outside of the area.
Being of recent European ancestry family is important & I was raised on “old school” values. I am not interested in hookups and would only consider something with a potential for long-term. I enjoy physical affection & express warmth through touch.
What Guys Said
If it were me, one thing I've learnt over the years despite being younger yes I know, is that I for one keep profiles shorter and sweeter, and more mystery.
But basically, shorter and simple. Nobody has time to read these days it seems 🥱 so a helpful hint perhaps shorter better?
What would you suggest focusing on & what cutting out.
I don't know, like just keep what you're about and what you're looking for under 1 paragraph maybe, it's just a thought, I mean if you're on a dating app, I just wonder will guys read the many paragraphs? Otherwise don't listen to me, all good ^_^
It's good except that your expectations of him having a good education and a good career so he can contribute to your life kind of contradict the part about you not being materialistic or a crowd follower.
If you're truly the type to look at people on a deeper level, his education and career wouldn't be so important. For me personally I just require that a woman is financially independent (Can pay her own bills), she has a good heart, and she's fun to be around.
Yes but at the same time any woman & any man doesn't want to be saddled with a leech who does nothing but bleeding the bank accounts dry.
That's true, but terrible people come in all forms. My ex-wife is a total narcissist and she has a high paying job in the medical field like you. I've learned that finding an honest and kindhearted person is more important that their career or education.
You are in a similar situation as a lot of people who are nervous about relationships because you got to a point where you have more to lose than gain by being in one. It's understandable, but kind of the price that people pay by focusing more on their careers and education than their love lives in their 20's.
ROFL. And yet it's be better to be successful than having to worry about how the bills will be paid with no real education & no real career and 2+ mouths to feed. At least I will never have to worry about being homeless which is more than many who start families in theirs 20s can claim.
I guess we took 2 different paths in life. I settled down and moved in with a woman at 21 and we were together 15 years. I'm father to a teenager and far from homeless.
I'm not saying you shouldn't expect a man with a similar education and career level as you if that's what you want, I'm just telling you that it contradicts your claims of not being materialistic and a crowd follower. One of those statements has to go, either you have high career and education expectations in order to be with someone, or you don't. I'm just giving my honest opinion about your dating profile as requested.
You obviously don't know what being materialistic means. Or for that matter what being a crowd follower is.
You're materialistic because you value his income level, and you're a crowd follower because you think that having a good education means that you're a good person. You're following the stereotypical perception that upper class, so called "Successful people" are of better quality. You're pre-judging people based on superficial qualities and greatly limiting your options.
ROFL. Did you not comprehend when I said I don't care for a BMW?
I am NOT materialistic by wanting someone who will contribute. If so even the poorest people in the world are materialistic for wanting someone who'll add to the household, not be a leech.
I don't think good education makes you a good person you dullard.
Let me ask you since I'm supposedly materialistic & a crowd follower.
What is a guy who has no university degree & a generic job going to contribute to the life of a well-educated woman? I am not talking about his income but what, for one thing, can they talk about?
If you didn't want opinions about your profile, you shouldn't have asked. I just looked at it from the perspective of a man on a dating app reading it and I could see why you're still single from a mile away.
You're looking for another version of yourself rather than accepting that other people are different. You also seem to be very scared of being leeched off of to the point where you're judging men based on their income first. You have this screwed up idea that you can trust people who are of your status, but people don't always fit that stereotype.
I gave you my opinion. You're profile has a major contradiction and you don't seem as open-minded and as accepting as you portray yourself. None of the men that you meet are gonna be perfect, or fit your wants perfectly and you're gonna have to learn to accept that if you truly want a partner.
Also if you're so well educated but yet you can't hold a decent conversation with.. say a carpenter, than maybe you lack any real social skills and that could also be an issue.
ROFL. One with the problems is you. You seem to think leeching off someone else who potentially has a better career or more money is perfectly acceptable. Are you on welfare by chance?
I happen to have exceptional social skills. It's why not only can I have a good conversation with a carpenter or electrician or brick layer but having renovated parts of my own property I'll ask them questions about their profession and where / what I can possibly do myself.
You're automatically assuming that every guy without your education and career status is after your money. Most decent guys who are employed couldn't care less if you're a doctor or you work at McDonalds. Men are interested in women that they find physically attractive and fun to be around. As far as your social skills are concerned, the first thing you need to learn about a relationship is that it has nothing to do with your jobs, you aren't hiring an employee here. You should be connecting with each other on a more intimate level and bonding based on chemistry, sense of humour, and the way you make each other feel. A carpenter doesn't want to talk to his girlfriend about work, he wants to tell her how beautiful she is and take her out to eat. He wants to talk about movies, and family, and share his different life experiences with you.
way too long , most guys in dating apps are just lookin for nudes , i dont think they will read that
