    Sunday Showcase

    banner Sunday Showcase

    Just so you all know, I’m nearly out of showcase participants. Next week is the last one in the queue — so… Help me out – submit your personal ad for the Sunday Showcase.

    Now, on with the show! This submitter is one of my dear single mom friends. I admire her strength and was not at all surprised when she sent me her profile.

    July 300x225 Sunday Showcase

    38 year old Woman

    A little about me…

    I’m a five foot eight inch fat girl (bbw, voluptuous, *insert random positive word for fat here*) with gorgeous hair, bright blue eyes and a devilish streak hidden beneath a demure smile. I’m a sweet woman looking for a man to enhance my already pretty great life, not someone to complete it. I hope to meet someone about whom I find myself daydreaming at inappropriate times, someone who I find myself missing when I have not seen him for awhile. I have been divorced since 2007 and I have 3 elementary-school-aged children. As much as I adore spontaneity, life is fuller and more interesting with them. Their father is involved in their upbringing and they visit with him regularly. Those with kids know, maintaining a home life and social/self life is a delicate balance. Care to tip the scales with me?

    Why should you take a chance with me?

    I can form a full sentence – The only drama I enjoy is on TV or in a book – I won’t care when you look at another girl – I’ll always be impressed with how manly you are – I won’t steal the drugs out of your medicine cabinet – I can be ready in 30 minutes or less – I smell good – I’ve never been on Jerry Springer, Maury, America’s Most Wanted, or American Idol – I bake perfect banana bread – I’ll rarely get jealous -I get pedicures regularly – I have good manners – I appreciate simple pleasures – My kisses are breathtaking – I’ll make you laugh- I’d never give you grief in front of your friends – I have a slightly kinky nature that bubbles below the surface that not everyone gets to see – I’ll never say nothing is wrong when there is – You won’t be able to get me out of your head/heart – I am a homeowner and am not looking for someone to financially support me -I can keep a secret – I am loyal – I am curious and love learning new things – I don’t care if you eat off my plate – I have no crazy exes – I want you to spend time with your friends – I have free time and like to get out and do things – I enjoy having a beer and watching the game just as much as you do – I love kids – I am always up for a good, old-fashioned makeout session with my man on the couch, in the car, in a dark alley…

    I find that I am most attracted to tall, articulate, witty men. Oh, a positive attitude is a must.

    The fine print

    *Please have a picture or be willing to email one. My experience has been that those who are unwilling to share a picture usually have something to hide…more than their face.

    * Please be in the [redacted] area. I am not interested in a long distance relationship.

    * I not interested in cyber sex, text sex, or phone sex with random internet strangers. I will not be be emailing you any naked pics, and I have no interest in seeing your naked pics.

    The first date

    I don’t like to think of the first meeting as a first date – too much pressure. I like to keep it open ended (coffee at a bookstore, a walk along the waterfront, a beer at a pub.) If we have chemistry then we can extend our time together or plan a real date. If not…eh, it happens.

    She had me hooked at that first sentence. I just LOVE confidence and she has clearly communicated that she loves who she is, where she is, and what she’s wants. It’s a beautiful thing.

    What do you guys think?
