19.03.11 - 365 days of being single

It's all a bit like I'm in a Rocky montage, posting recent profile pics, write and re-write my profile, but just haven't managed to get to the top of those stairs yet, perhaps I need to hire Burgess Meredith and his bike to shout at me a bit.

The whole dating site thing seems to be a complete misnomer, are there any men out there who actually want to date, and I don't mean move in and get married within 30 seconds, but just meet up, go out, have a few drinks and a laugh and see how it goes.

So, why I am still single after all this time, am I some scary needy clingy woman. In short, no. One, I work from home and when I'm not working, I'm working on redecorating my Victorian cottage, so I don't get out that much to actually meet people and two, the majority of men who have taken the time to contact me are either just unsuitable or only after one thing.

There may be plenty of fish in the sea, but i keep getting red herrings

I'm a happy, confident, smart and funny woman. I have a good job and a lovely house. I know exactly what I want out of my life and refuse to be messed around. So if going on dates isn't your intention, please don't waste my time.

As to what I'm looking for in a man, well, if you can make me laugh or intrigue me with your intellect, you'll be off to a good start
