I'm trying to quit smoking and get into better shape. I live with my mom. Have been helping take care of her for seven years, because she has acute lupus and fibromyalgia. Finally able to think about school. Thinking about studying hotel and tourism management, accounting, or maybe even bridal cunsultant. I'm pretty shy, quiet and reserved until I get to know you, then I'm hell on wheels. I love books, especially the classics. I'll listen to anything musically, except polka because it gets on my nerves. I love movies, especially horror and action. I aslo am developing a love for cooking and baking. And I tend to ramble on when I'm nervous, or don't know what to say or how to say it(can't you tell?). I'm honest about everything in my life, so all you have to do is ask and I'll tell. And more than anything am ready to settle down.
I guess I am looking for someone who can appreciate and accept me, in spite of/despite, for my flaws. Someone who is as loyal as I am, honest and caring. I am close with some of my family, especially with my mom, and would hope he is too. I want a man who is wanting to be and is willing to truly be my partner. A man who can inspire and encourage me to be a better person.
