Online Dating - LIGHTINGBIRD - Looking for brilliant and beautiful

How many times must I play this game? How many times must I start over when I meet someone? Used cars, that’s what we are all to each other. No one is new or sparkling clean. But why do we all try to mislead? I’m done with it… So here I go again, searching for a special lady. I am a broad minded, wise, college educated, ex-soldier looking to find a great mate in a woman and hopefully settle down one day. No, I’m not looking for an overnight relationship. Yes, I am looking too actually to get to know a woman as best as I can. I have every intention of taking my time, enjoying any and all time with this new interest and taking any appropriate dating risks to see where the situation goes. This is an adult man that is seeking an educated woman. No not necessarily, a grad student or degree holder. Although, I have two college degrees in business and psychology, I am not seeking the same. My goal is to find someone classy. This woman will be able to dress well, decent, or even sexy. Not a woman that thinks that she has a rich and top of the line wardrobe because she has a predominant Tommy Hilfiger clothing line in her closet. Now don't get me wrong, I should say dress nice not a horrible dresser. I am seeking a woman with a taste in several things. A woman that is not petty. Meaning that she can get upset, be slightly bothered, experience something in a man that slightly upsets her and the world does not end. Yes, I’m seeking a reasonable, calm, understanding woman. Not some add dynamite chemical explosion when someone looks at her the wrong way. She will have goals in life. Even if they are cartoon like and or a planned out strategy, I'll be very eager to hear about them. My goals include becoming independent with my own business, getting my daughter into college when she’s old enough, and one day finishing my RN degree program, I have one year left. It's a bit challenging for me to finish given current events currently I am not in school to finish it. Each week I work out 5 times a week on the P90x weight workout plan. Currently, I'm also a Muay Thai kickboxing trainee. Since we are all used cars, she will have good past relationship management skills. She won’t have 15 ex-boyfriends still calling and be surprised when a new interest in her life chooses to leave her alone because of it. My basement is clean; none of my ex-flames have any access to my life to disrupt anything. This woman will understand the value of space. Now I’m not saying that I do not love the company of a woman that I interested in. But there comes a time when I like to do things and so should she. More of this should be directed toward a woman that has hobbies or something that she enjoys so that she is mentally independent. An educated woman should understand where I am going with this explanation. But if not, I am searching for a woman that will not lose her self identity with me and understand that I choose to keep mine. Finally, I am not looking for a mother or a judge. My life is not perfect nor is anyone else's. I learned a long time ago that looks are not everything but you'd have to be a fool to think there should not be some sort of physical attraction between two people. The woman I seek will not judge me in any aspect of my life. I will not do the same to her. If she's looking for man with a certain type of lifestyle then I'm not the man for you. Now I'm not perfect. Neither is the woman that I am seeking. But this woman will be just that a woman. A adult female that is nice, smart, attractive, and knows when she is wrong can always suck it up, say she is sorry, and make an attempt to make things right. I'll always listen. Thank you for reading this and your time.
