Responding to email notices you receive.
**************************************************
In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

IMPORTANT! PLEASE READ!! About the Google Adsense ads being displayed

Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.
Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."
Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....
=====================
Addendum: 01/10/2026
=====================
Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....
Who do you throw back in the pond?

My list is the same as yours, except for the spider part. LOL!!
Also, I'm 32 so my prefered age range is no younger than I am to no more than 12 years older...give or take.
Here's my additions:
One of my quirks is "teeth." I'm a little on the obsessive side about my own. It's nothing unusual for me to wake up in the middle of the night and go brush my teeth, just to return back to bed. I carry dental floss in my purse and a toothbrush, etc. in my car. I HATE food stuck in my teeth...I just cannot stand it. So, I do expect that my potential mates take care of their teeth. I'm not saying that they have to be a obsessive as I am...just that they have to be kept in nice shape.
Education...I'm big on reading and education so I expect compatibility in that area. My ex husband and I quickly drifted apart because I continued with my education and he did not. We soon had nothing to talk about.
To me, "packages" don't matter. I don't care about size, race or color, or anything of the sort. None of that sticks around permanently anyway. Just ask any woman who has had a child or two. LOL! It's the person inside that counts, all the way. However, hygiene is a must.

Thank you Dennis.
Confidence wavers from time to time but content is good.
Thank you so much for making my day.

I'm pretty tolerant of people, some moreso than others (i'm not tolerant of other drivers who just don't get the rules of the road though especially when they take my life into their hands cause they are in a rush.....) LOL
As for men, hmmmmmmm i will not, ever, date anyone in the same field of work as i am. Its bad enough my mother and i do pretty much the same thing. Its nice to vent to someone who understands but i've found lately that when i leave work, i should *leave work there*. Allowing myself to hold on to the frustration and bringing it home is only causing me more migraines. So when i want to just forget work and take ME time, my mom starts with how her day was and drives me nuts, i couldn't stand the same thing from my husband.
Other than that i'm not a fan of excess hair on the body... sorry.
Anyone who is controlling gets the boot asap. I'm a very independent person and won't tolerate someone telling me who i can see, how much money i can have etc.
I want someone who is outgoing so *stay at home sit on his butt type* is just not for me. My fiance was like that, every night on the computer......couldn't be bothered to do anything else......
Constant complainers, mommas boy who can't lift a finger at home, and someone who doesn't like animals or kids wrap up my list
