**If you have EVER been arrested, convicted and/OR served time in jail/prison, I am not interested. No judgment, but as a single mom that is a big deal breaker** Also please respect that I am not interested in anyone outside of the US or someone younger than me. I am a single mother, raising the most amazing little girl. I am a hard working, honest and direct woman. Please be honest, confident, happy and true to who you are. Be real, and strong. Know how to communicate openly and directly. Please love to laugh and be playful, but know when to be serious and calm. Be willing to be strong and the man of the relationship. Looking for a man that is open to being loved, adored and cared for. We all have pasts and baggage that have caused hurt and made us more cautious at our ages, but if you are not able to get over it and let someone new love you, then please do not waste our time. Also if you are not monogamous we are not at all compatible.
