Oak Forest's Local Dating Service

I'm not even sure what to type in here- I think it's easier to get to know someone by actually talking with them, but if this is what we've got to go by, so be it. I'm 21, and am a little unsure of what direction I'm going to go in life. I think living is an adventure, but all the same, it can be quite the scary journey. So at the moment I'm muddling through, dabbling in writing, art, and voice acting. Yeah I'm one of those anime freaks, but no worries, it doesn't completely run my life. Manga is not the only kind of book I read- in fact I love classics and I think books and reading are very important. Not that I'm a stickler for it, but someone who is well-read makes for great conversation. I think religion is a way to brainwash people who want someone to tell them how to think and what to believe in. Believe in what you want, just don't hurt anyone over it, eh? Movies are a must for me- I love them, love to talk about the ones I've seen. Music moves the soul, I believe it, and I love to sing. I know I can- maybe not like an American Idol pro, but haha, I'm definitely not William Hung either. So, if you're interested, hit me up for a chat. Ciao!

Hey there, I'm Ashley! I'm 23 and living out on my own. I have two jobs- I'm a fingerprint technician during the day and a cosmetology student by night. And yes, it's quite interesting! Although I stay busy with work and school, I have plenty of time for myself, family, and friends. When I have free time I like to watch TBS, read magazines, drive around, and listen to music. I love my friends so much. I'm very close with a big group of them! We've been friends for years and they're like family. We spend most weekends together. There's always a birthday party or a game night to attend. I'm very close with my family. They'd do anything for me and vice versa. We usually get together every or every other Sunday for dinner and football/baseball watching. Always something to look forward to with me. I love to have fun and make people laugh- I've been known to say and do silly things just to get the group goin :) And if you ask anyone about me, they'll tell ya I have a million different laughs and my laugh will for sure make you laugh. So you can't lose! Many of my friends are settling down now and are engaged/in serious relationships so we don't go out-out very much anymore. So there's not a lot of opportunity for me to meet someone of my own. I figured this is an easy way to meet guys who don't have 10 beers in them! Much more up my alley. I'd love to talk to anyone who has nice, interesting things to say, or if you're just bored late at night like I am a lot of the time haha. Hope to hear from you soon!

Im 25, just moved to the northside of Chicago. Im looking to have a good time and meet new people. I do like to party, and I do like to hang out. Shoot a message if you want to talk.

I play drums. I admire architecture. I value and respect history. Sometimes I like to draw. I enjoy intelligence, creativity, compassion...

I'm writing in short fragments because I will put more time and thought into this area later.

I JUST TURNED 21 IN NOVEMBER,AND HAVE A NEW LEASE ON LIFE, I AM LIVING LIFE TO THE FULLEST. I LIKE MEETING NEW PEOPLE AND GOING TO DIFFERNET PLACES. I JUST RECENTLY BROKE UP WITH MY GF BECAUSE SHE WAS CHEATING. I AM LOOKING FOR A SWEET LOVING GIRL THAT LIKES TO HAVE FUN, BUT, ALSO HAS A CRAZY SIDE. ALSO, AT THE SAME TIME I WOULD LIKE TO START A FAMILY, BUT NOT RIGHT AWAY. IT IS JUST SOMETHING I THINK ABOUT EVERY SO OFTEN. RIGHT NOW I AM WORKING FULL TIME, AND RUNNING A SMALL BUSINESS ON EBAY. I GO TO ESTATE SALES/SWAP SHOWS, FLEA MARKETS, AND BUY THINGS REALLY CHEAP, AND SELL THEM 4 TO 5 TIMES ON EBAY. I HAVE BEEN DOING THIS FOR AROUND 3 YEARS, AND HAVE MADE SOME GOOD MONEY. I AM A PERSON WHOS LIKES TO LOOK GOOD ANY TIME I GO OUT. I LIKE TO WEAR DESIGNER BRAND CLOTHES SUCH AS ARMANIE EXCHANGE, GUESS, AMERCROMBIE, AND OTHERS. I LOVE TO MAKE PEOPLE LAUGH, AND FEEL GOOD. IF ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE LET ME KNOW.

Well let's see... I am pretty laid back overall. I work two jobs right now and I am training to be a veterinary technician. Animals are a huge passion of mine. I also enjoy reading, writing, playing cards, shopping, traveling, fishing, watching baseball and football, going out with friends, and also just staying in for a peaceful,quiet night. I am looking for someone to spend time with and see where it goes. Way past the playing games stage in my life. A nice, funny and considerate guy to spend time with basically.

I enjoy people and have many friends. I am friendly, non-judgemental and have a great sense of humor. I enjoy my freedom and enjoy the ability to come and go as I please. I don't trust easily, but I'm sure we all know what that's like. My friends say I'm loyal, a good friend. I love to go out and have fun, but can easily enjoy nights in with the right person.

I am new to this site and would like to meet some new people, make some new friends, and maybe meet someone who I can relate to and see what happens. I have 2 kids (boys 9 & 5), recently divorced. I like the outdoors, boating, camping, etc. going to concerts and just having fun.

So what's it going to take to get your interest?

I'm kinda new to this online thing. I'm not really sure what to expect.

I'm 24 years old. I'm 6'4" roughly 220lbs. I have brown hair, brown eyes. I grew up in Kansas. Went to college in Nebraska. I have a degree in Psychology. Just moved to the Chicago area, but I love it here! I love my family and my friends. They mean the world to me. I am a Christian.

I know that I'm not God's gift to women, but I do think that I bring a lot to offer to the table. I'm a genuinely good guy. Maybe that is why I'm single now.

I'm different.

I actually care. I know that relationships take effort, work, and regular maintenance. My parents raised me well, and taught me how a woman should be treated with respect. Not put up on an unreachable pedestal and worshiped; not kicked down in the dirt and abused; but by your side, respected, honored, and valued.

Personality, Loyalty, and Chemistry are probably the three most important things I'm looking for in a girl. Beauty is only skin deep, but it doesn't hurt either. I'm looking for a lady that I can have a normal conversation with but doesn't mind going off on a random tangent. She should be able to laugh at herself, have a wit at least as quick as mine, and be comfortable just being plain goofy sometimes.

I'm also looking for the girl that inspires me. That dares me to do things I never thought I could. That challenges me to take on new experiences.

We don't have to have everything in common, but here are some of the things I enjoy: Music, Movies, Camping, Barbecue, Swing dancing, My Friends, Food both cooking and eating, Back rubs, Stand-up comics, Sports, Chicago Bears, Chicago Blackhawks, Chicago White Sox, Road Trips, Scrubs, Ninja Turtles, Zombies, Living life to the fullest.

Greetings everyone! I haven't had much luck with online dating in the past but I'm wiling to give it another shot. At the very least Iâ??m hoping to make some interesting new friends. You can never have too many positive people in your life, right? Does anyone else think it's kind of hard to get a sense of someone's personality from reading an online profile?

A little about me...I currently live in the SW suburbs and work as a counselor at a University. I also teach online psychology courses, which is fun. I feel my job(s) are important, but itâ??s not the most important thing in my life.

I have a wide variety of interests. I can be happy doing anything from a baseball game to an art museum to a symphony/concert to eating out to watching a movie to camping to playing tennis to running a 5k/10k. But I donâ??t have to always be doing somethingâ?¦sometimes itâ??s just nice to sit around for a day. I really enjoy traveling and have been overseas several times. It was an amazing experience each time and I 'd love to travel some more.

Other random stuffâ?¦Iâ??m passionate about new music, nature (and being friendly to it), lazy Sunday afternoons, animals, not having dusty furniture, a cold beer, coffee in the morning, a hot shower, taking the stairs instead of the elevator, hitting the snooze bar, sushi and Indian food, campfires, clean socks, avoiding Fox News, planting tomatoes in the spring, superhero movies, traveling...etc.

I hope to meet someone who is comfortable with herself. Someone who can handle my jokes and sarcasm...and maybe even throw a little back at me. Someone with a good sense of humor. Someone who is realistic about relationships and about life. Someone who doesn't expect their match to be perfect...and someone who doesn't expect perfection from herself. Someone who understands that few things in life are absolute and who doesn't see the world in black and white.

Hey!!! My name is Chris, but all my friends call me DeLo. I am a funny, outgoing, smart, compassionite guy. I am currently enrolled in college. I go to Moraine Valley. I am getting a degree and eventually going to an university to be a professor in history. I am a person who doesn't need to drink or drug to have a good time.

I have a piercing and one tattoo... it is of the hatchet man and i am a phsycopathic fannatic... yes i am a Juggalo... the wicked clowns will never die...

I am a strong man both mentally and physically. I work out regularly and like riding my bike(ten speed that is). I enjoy all kinds of music and having a few beers with friends.

Hi, I'm Eli. I am currently a junior at Devry University. I am a pretty easy-going guy who likes to just hang out and have fun.

Is there really a good way to start off a self summary?I guess im not a huge party guy, i still party but bars are not my life. I like most sports, random activities, and hanging out with friends.

I am a red blooded, flag waving AMERICAN and damn proud of it .i was brought up by two wonderful parents that i visit once a week(free meals).i grow a beard in the winter to protect my skin from the elements while im working and ice fishing.it comes off ST PATRICKS DAY(earlier for a wedding or funneral)other wise im clean shaven until dec . unless you like a beard/mustache.im a UNION man dont ask me to shop at walmart but will go anywhere else with you i do like to shop,tools and sporting goodsand a good pair of jeans.

I'm Mark or Wolfy I go by both.

I originally had this as just a large basis of humor, but seriously got bored with it so decided to be a little more upfront that I was being.

I am goal driven and determined for success in anything I do. Always been that way always will be. Guess that is the athlete in me, which taught me also you cant spread your wings to wide.

On the subject of animals I love them. My dogs I consider as my children. If you don't like dogs we aren't going to get a long. Both of them are adopted in rescue beagles. From what I know of their lives (the little I do know they went through hell).

I like to do a variety of things. The wider the better. Boredom sets in pretty easily. I'm also very easy going. I don't like to control other people's actions, and expect a sense of independence. Nobody puts Andrew in a corner. Or Baby for that matter.

I am an easy going guy that is always looking to have a good time. I am always looking to expand my horizons and try new and interesting things. I enjoy drag racing a lot i have raced my Camaro competitively for a few years now. And I enjoy snowboarding in the winter time. I have snowboarded for about 10 years now. I like the outdoors and camping.

People notice my sense of humor first. But they don't always realize that I can be serious, caring, romantic, intelligent, and hard working.

I just enjoy getting outside, and enjoying the fresh air and natural light. Hiking, biking, horseback riding, camping, sports, or just a walk around the block. I can't stand always being cooped up inside. Though I still love quiet evenings, cuddling and watching movies late at night.

There's not a 'one certain way' with me. I'd be boring if 'what you see is what you get.' I can spend a weekend crawling in the dirt, drinking, singing, sleeping on the ground, working on vehicles, grunting, and doing all sorts of manly stuff. After that I can come home and get dressed to the 9s and take you out to a nice dinner, then go swing dancing with a live band, or to the theatre. I can be hyper all day, doing sports, or just being a goofball, then just cuddle with you and just watch a movie, or two, or seven.

Besides the ones I have already mentioned, I also enjoy fencing, WWII reenacting, and general mischief and mayhem. :)

hello,i just love to talk about myself.Not....ahh,If you want to know about me please just contact me and we can chat.There is so much I want to tell you that I just couldn't find the space here to fit it in.Well.....maybe I just have a writers block.Give me time to come up with something.

Hi, I'm Tom. I'm a pretty simple, laid back guy. I enjoy going to the bar once in awhile. I also enjoy just laying around watching a movie. I love music. I listen to everything except country. I'm an oldies fan and I love Green Day.

I'm going to college to be an english teacher; I'm one of those people who have gone through a lot of BS in their life, have lived to tell about it, and now are happy. I like video games, movies, books and pretty much everything that's more interesting than my own life, which consists of school, work, and the occasional trip to the mall to buy another iteration of a shirt I already have {probably black} though lately I have been going into the city once in a while to go dancing. My family's splintered but they're mostly there for me. I have a lot of friends but I rarely get the time to see them. I'm prone to long, emo tirades when asked about my self-summary, apparently, which is actually less who I am than someone who is mostly cheerful in a dark way; if that makes sense.

I feel that I am a good-looking,easy going, independent,caring,trustworthy,honest,and open-minded type of person. I try to be genuine and a free spirit. I'm a very good listener withput someone asking. I'm also really detail oriented at times. I can be spontaneous at times, and serious at others. I am also passionate about traveling. I'm seeking the same or similar.Definitely not into head games or lies!!!
Absolutely no drama.....
Ciao,
Jennifer:)

Lets see... I'm very creative. I enjoy working. I am a single mother. I love it. Life has always be crazy for me, ups and downs. But hey, That's Life! I enjoy dancing and being around people. I don't get out very often, so when I do I make the best of it. I don't have much time for a relationship but its that risk I take, walking into one. People need to work together to make things work now a days. 50/50 is how it is. I've had a few recent long-term relationships that just didn't work due to work and distance. I work a lot, being a manager and all. At least 30 hours a week are spent at work. The rest I try my best to spend with my daughter. She's an amazing little 4 year old! And she is my life! I'm on this site for the second time, the first time was amazing and I met a lovely young man in which I dated for almost 6 months before the distance issue came into play. So this is my second shot and I'm very optimistic about all this! I'm am who I am, and I need someone who is ok with that. I don't change for guys. I work around things and work with guys to make it easier, but I don't go way out of my way. I enjoy pleasing and love trying new things. I'm very outgoing and love meeting new people. Friends are fun making and I enjoy getting to know a person from the inside out!

Im optimistic, outgoing, friendly (unless you get on my bad side), determined to accomplish the things I am passionate about, and at times I can be stubborn- sometimes we have to do what we have to do. In the end, I know everything happens for a reason!

I'm not very good at writing these but I'll give it a go. Im a very hard working and passionate person. I love to write, camp, go to ball games, and movies. Im a strong believe that working together in a relationship makes it successful and that it needs to be based on Trust, Communication, and Compassion. If any of those pieces are missing the relationship will ultimately fail.

Well hello fellow internet users. Im basically a nice got that gets the short end of the stick in relationships. i love music, theatres, dancing, pool, darts, cooking, movies, walks & talks, being romantic, love to laugh, etc. Just a nice guy that loves life and looking for someone to share good times and my heart with. Married people looking for "extra" activities, liars, thieves, please dont respond. i dont need more games in my life. Now on the lighter side, im into learning about new things, people, cultures. Im not afraid to take chances when neccesary, i love to spend time downtown Chicago. the food, museums, art, atmosphere.. day or night its just a great place to hang out. I am a Chicago Sports Fan. It doesnt matter the sport, just rooting for the Home team.. win or lose. Chicago Bears Rule...lol

I am fun and shy at first. I love my family and friends. I love my animals. I love to read and write. I listen to just about every type of music.

I want to mention that I'm poly (polyamorous)If you are turn you off, my apologies but .I thrive on excitement. I'm lovable, passionate, helpful and very straightforward. I also enjoy a wide range of activities. I love movies, from classic to porn. I also enjoy going to museums and galleries. My hobbies include drawing, painting, and photography. Pablo Picasso and Joel Peter Withkin are a few of the artists who inspire my creative drive. When I want to relax, I like going out for a few drinks, shooting pool, and savoring a good cigar. Iâ??m into all genres of music, from Cold Play to Alanis Morissette. Smooth jazz,, classic Bach, etc. round out my collection.

I am an artist educator. I teach people to draw, and look at the world with new eyes and that you do not have to be good at drawing to be good at art. I am an idealist. I look for the best in people unless they are outright toxic. I have a mildly sarcastic sense of humor, but sarcasm is the body's natural defense against stupidity.

I'm kind of goofy, but grounded. I would like to think I am even tempered. I like to visit art galleries every so often. I play DnD and classic video games. I'm interested in foreign alphabets.
I am also kind of interested in fitness and have been doing Tabata sets at least 6 days a week since early December 2009.... I like the results and have consequently have taken a more keen interest in fitness. I do dread I might turn into a gym bunny except I cannot afford a gym membership. I do however have the benefits of a swiss ball, and my brother's weight sets.

I'm a pretty laid back guy that every girl I meet say I'm the type of guy they could take home to ma and pa, I'm not sure why.... I'm 26 years young, I stand 6'1 at 155 pounds. I have 8 tats and plan on getting more someday. I skateboard as a hobby, I work a lot but still have time to have as much fun as i can. i love to work on cars, I'm a gear head and i love my Fords. So I guess my looks dont really fit who i am but yet its not what you look like that makes who you are its your personalty and what you do in your life that does. I'm one of those people when i see a pool i'll be the first to jump in it with my cloths on because i can always dry myself off and it make's people laugh and by laughing you add years to your life and life is good. I live for the nights I'll never remember with the friends I'll never forget!

I'm 19 in college about to have my 2 year associates degree and work at a department store part time. I'm busy at times but always have an extra moment. When I'm out I like to have fun and be the smart ass usually in the group. I enjoy every moment of my life and have friends that are to die for. I speak my mind when needed and I'm not afraid of much of anything. I love meeting new people and I'm very interested in getting to know anyone who gives that chance. I enjoy playing sports with friends and going out and having a good time. Like every other guy a relationship is not necessarily needed but to have a certain someone is important. I'm really easy to get along with and anyone I know would tell you how great I am. I take care of my friends in need and they return the favor. I'm sure you'll be glad to meet or even talk with me.

My name is Peter and I am trying this online dating for the first time to find that special someone. I stopped trying to find someone at the clubs and bars because I wasn't getting anywhere plus I'm getting to old for that. It's also probably because I"m very shy and have a hard time to talk to someone if I don't know them. So I'm going to give this a try and see what happens. So about me I'm pretty much an down to earth and hard working kind of guy. I love anything that deals with cars it can be an tv show, car show, a drag race, and or just working on them. You can say that is my hobby but I also like to bike riding and play different sports. The type of girl that I'm looking for is just someone I can trust, talk to, and someday start a family with. She don't need to look like an model either because I'm not. I'm not too big in looks as long as she is caring and down to earth that is all I'm asking for. If that sounds like you and are interested to known me better feel free to contact me. I will love to hear from you and if things don't work out. I will not have any problem with just being a friend. So if you are looking for a nice guy that is going to treat you the way you what to be treated, I'm right here you don't need to look any farther.

Hi. My name is Kim. I'm 23 years old and a senior at NIU. My roommate tried this site out and since it worked out well for him, I decided to try it myself. I find it almost impossible to describe myself, but here goes... I'm generally a very nice and sweet person. I have been told I have a strong personality which can sometimes intimidate people, but I prefer the term independent. I'm very shy once you first meet me, but soon open up.

Some general statements:
-I love shopping; I have an abnormal amount of clothes.
-I am very laid back.
-I feel that I am physically the healthiest I have ever been in my life.
-I don't generally enjoy red meat, but I eat it sometimes. (I haven't eaten steak in over 15 years... I'm a cheap date!)Just wait til you hear why...
-My hair color is constantly changing.

I really don't know what else to put, so just message me and maybe we can learn more about each other!

I'm looking for the AJ to my Grace... and if you know what that's from... you may have just won my heart!

Iâ??m an honest, straight forward woman. I donâ??t see the point in lying, whatsoever. So let me start by telling it to you straightâ?¦ I know what I want in a man, and when I find him, it will simply add to my life, in a positive way. Iâ??m wise beyond my years, and Iâ??ve been through a lot. It simply makes me who I am today. Iâ??m a go-getter when it comes to just about everything. Iâ??m outgoing, and love to have fun. I would consider myself unique. I can be the business woman in my slacks, heels, and jacketâ?¦ and the party girl in my skirt, heels and halter. I can be the girly girl getting my nails doneâ?¦ and the tomboy, screaming at the TV when football on because our defense leaves openings all over the field. I can be the stay home, put on my pjâ??s and cuddle on the couch girlâ?¦ and the girl who is down for anything, lets go ice skating, or camping. Iâ??m the girl you can take home to momma, and the girl who if your mom ever saw in bed with you, would leave her blushing for days. The girl who can drink a few beers with the guys, or sip champagne by candlelight. Iâ??m a lover and a fighter. â??Whatâ??s worth the prize, is always worth the fightâ?? Iâ??m not looking for friends with benefits, or a one night standâ?¦ if I were, Iâ??d be on â??online booty callâ?? or â??flingâ?? Iâ??m looking to go on a few dates and if I we hit it off, settle down and get my â??happily ever after.â?? The only relationship I think will work is one where both people put in equal amounts of effort.

I think everyone needs to live by the lyricsâ?¦ â??Against the grain, should be a way of lifeâ??

I'm the type of girl who runs into the rain, and catches snowflakes on my tongue. I want to spend a night with someone special laying in the grass, staring at the stars and talking about extraordinary things. I keep my promises at all costs. I want to travel the world and experience different cultures. I laugh loud and dream big!

A few goals that I hope to accomplish before I die....
1. celebrate 50 yrs of marriage(crazy concept now a days, huh)
2. Travel all over the world. My top 5 places I would love to visit are, Egypt, Poland, Brazil, China, and Germany.
3. Write a novel, and have it published.
4. Live everyday without regrets!

Let's see... I'm always up for trying/learning something new, which means anyone that I can have a deep conversation with I certainly would get along with. Animals make me smile, music keeps me going, and life is for the most part enjoyable. :)

Some things I love in life are...
~Movies
~Music (Queens of the Stone Age, SilverSun Pickups, Clutch)
~Animals (I currently don't have any pets but used to have a Golden Retriever)
~Satire (Books by Chuck Palahniuk fit this perfectly
~Gaming
~History
~Philosophy

I am a single male looking for a longterm relationship, and even just dating is ok. But I really would like to find the one I will be with for the long term or even the rest of my life. I don't really like writing these self summaries. I am a caring person and I care about what I do. I like to listen to all kinds of rock music, especially punk, I like to watch all kinds of movies and like to play video games. I love to hang out with my friends.

Hey, My name is Kyle im 22 and i like music alot. I play the drums, and im also in a band. I currently work at walgreens, not the greatest job, but it pays the bills. I like to hang out with friends, meet new people, and just doing new things! I like to have fun any time i get the chance to. There is more but message me and ill tell u all you want to know.

Well I am a single mom to a little boy who is my world. I just graduated school with a degree in Fashion Merchandising. I work part time right now, but looking for a full time job. I enjoy cooking for friends and family, and spending time with my son as much as a I. I love to also shop, going to concerts, watching and playing sports.

Ask anything you want too?

I am an accountant who likes to work out. I work about 4 to 5 times a week. You can find me out with friends most of the time.

I am a laid back guy who is just as comfortable out at a bar as I am sitting back watching a movie. I am a dork but not a huge one. I would like to consider myself a fairly intelligent person where common sense and book smarts are integral parts of my life. However, I do play dumb with friends on certain things just to get laughs. I don't really take myself too seriously and have no problem embarrassing or making fun of myself just to see someone smile. I have a weird sense of humor and am constantly cracking jokes. Even though I poke fun at myself, my friends and family I am very dedicated to those closest to me and would do anything to help them. I live alone but my family is very important in my life. I enjoy reading, going to the gym, watching movies, playing video games, going to dive bars, having friendly arguements about unimportant subjects, and hanging out with friends and family. I'm not really a snappy dresser and most of the time I wear a pair of jeans with a t-shirt or sweatshirt.

Running in the Chicago Marathon and looking for a training partner! Anyone want to run around the block a few times? Eh? Running truly is a big part of my life. I enjoy participating in marathons.

As of May 2006, I graduated from Illinois State with a degree in Actuarial Science but I have been working the past two years in Chicago within an Insurance company as a systems developer.

For me, family always comes first because my role model in life is my little sister. She means so much to me. I like to hang out with friends and do just about anything that is fun. I am huge into sports (either video games or real life). I am a fan of the BEARS and CUBBIES WOOT WOOT!!!! I also like to play board games or anything else that is competitive. I am not hardcore competitive where I always need to win but just friendly competition is always welcomed! I like to be set in a routine when it comes to things like TV or work. Who has pizza Friday's? (This guy) But at the same time, I can be spontaneous and try new things. My life is in order. I know where I am going. I just recently bought a new townhouse out in Tinley Park. I now have a place to call "my own." I like to make my life as simple as possible; but I also love spontaneity. Movies one night, club downtown the next. I truly love to just try new things.

I am a humble, head-in-the-clouds, type of guy. I love my friends and family.

Wow how shall I start. OK well my name is Treahan....if you need help pronouncing it, Ill give ya a hint. It rhymes with crayon, so if you spelled it like how it sounded, it would be "tray-ahn". Got it?...great! In case you can't tell this summary will probably be part coherent and part rambling. But I shall try my best to describe myself. :D

Born and raised in Chicago, I come from a loving home, I thank the Lord for each day i wake up and credit my faith with helping me through some tough times. Oh but please don't run away because I put the words "faith" in my profile. I am just the type of person that does believe in things that reach further than our physical eyes can see. And while the word Christian is in my profile, I try to stay away from being put into a stereotypical religious mindset.

I guess I would describe myself as someone who loves life and tries to see the positive in everything. I have a family that loves me, and we are all very close. Even with me being the youngest of four, we were always "ride or die" together. :D. I also have three little nieces that I just have too much fun with. My family and I have always been close, I wouldn't be anywhere at all without them.

I am also the type of person who is always looking to enjoy life as much as possible. When I walk into a room full of people I have never met I want to leave them with an impression that I am someone who is friendly and loves to have a great time. And although I am comfortable with people, and love meeting new faces and making people laugh... I am at the same a fairly private person. Not in the sense that im like a hermit or something , it's just that quiet times in life can really give me fulfillment( if that makes sense lol) I love watching a nice movie at home, or just studying some music. And when it comes to friends, family, relationships, the types of people who are close me are the ones who that share that sense of finding joy in life as much as possible.

I never try to take myself too seriously. But at the same time, I enjoy talking about things that are deep as well. A thought provoking conversation is very entertaining for me.

I love foreign cultures and history, and hope to travel the world someday. Right now I am really into Japanese history,I dream of travelling to Tokyo one day. I even speak a little Japanese. yoroshiku onegaishimasu! (Nice to meet you!)

atm thats all i can think to say

I'm one of those romantic types.. I love sappy crap. Sorry. Haha. Flowers and that will mean the world to me.

I have a habit of staying up wayyy too late. Like now, I should be sleeping.

I recently took up working out. I really enjoy it. :D It's fun to go with friends too.

Hey...I'm Tom. I'm 27 years old from Oak Forest, IL.

I'm here to meet someone new thats fun and exciting. A little bit about me:

I'm half Italian, 25% Cuban, and 25% Spanish.

I have a Bachelor's from Devry University majoring in Computer Information Systems. I work for a large IT company based downtown.

I love to play and watch sports (big White Sox, Bears and Bulls fan). I also have a great appreciation for music and movies, and can never turn down a suggestion about a new band, or good new movie to watch.

If you want to talk and get to know me a little bit better, I'm on aim (wolfmoonspel). Feel free to drop me a line...I don't bite, I promise!

Those 3 adjectives were given to me by a friend, so they are most likely more accurate than if I had thought of them myself.

I'm a hard-working driven individual that loves to relax and have fun whenever possible. I grew up in a large family (7 children) and I consider myself a family-oriented person. I prefer to associate myself with people who are straight-forward and share my dry sense of humor. I measure my friends in quality over quantity. If you know about the Myers-Briggs personality test, then you will understand when I say I am an ISTJ. Other tests tell me I have a high level of conscientiousness and I am not neurotic.

I am pretty honest and tell it like it is. I love watching and playing sports. I'm not a religious person although I was born into a Catholic family.

I am an IT Consultant, have been in the information system profession for over 20 years. Enjoy going out with friends to different restaurants, or wherever the night may take us.

My story is a little too lush to fit into this box. I've had enough life experience to be entirely unable to summarize myself - but I'll share the basics:I'm very intelligent but down to earth. I'm highly creative and a fierce individualist.. I'm fun loving and extremely entertaining. I'm legitimately laid back but I have a low tolerance for bullshit. While it's hard to categorize me, I'm actually pretty centered. I'll go out on a limb and say that I'm one of the coolest girls you'll ever meet.

I've learned that checklists when it comes to relationships never work. The list of things that I admire in men is vast. My ideal man is passionate about something (or many things) but strives for balance. He's also lighthearted. He has interesting things to say. He would never send me an IM asking me if I wanted to f*ck sight unseen because well - that's ridiculous. He's nice to children and animals. He loves his mom but he hasn't lived with her for a while. He's a quick study on what it takes to occasionally make me forget my own name. He's as fun-loving and as entertaining as I am.

I am the person you call in the middle of the night with a problem. I dont have all the answers but will go to the ends of the earth to find them. I am where I say I am and will be where I said I am going. New and different isnt scarey its exciting. I will not feel intimidated because you are smarter, richer or more successful than I am, I feel lucky because I can experience what you do and learn from you. Laughing is a requirement. Crying is necessary only because you can appreciate laughing more.

Hey guys, I'm just a regular down-to-earth guy in the south suburbs looking for similar guys. I'm masculine, out of the closet but not very much into the gay scene, and prefer going on hikes or to concerts over dancing to crappy techno at a gay bar.

I always have a smile on my face. I hate arguing, and causing drama. My sense of humor is extremely weird. I'm a geek, I like to hang out with geeky people who don't care of what people think of them. What i would consider having a great time is going to Hollywood Fun park, Dave & Busters, Odessey World, and window shopping new electronics.

Hi, my name is Tom. I'm from Tinley Park Illinois, just south of Chicago. I'm the biggest White Sox fan you'll ever meet. I have my associate's degree and am currently working on my bachlor's degree. My favorite passtimes include shooting pool and playing poker. I also enjoy basketball, tennis, raquetball, and golf. Other intrests include camping, hiking, playing guitar, movies, or just throwing back a few beers with some friends. I'm currently employed at Osco Drug, in charge of the liquor department...seeking a new job.

Real cool, honest, laid back. Alot has happened within the last 2 years where I seriously enjoy life and smile all day everyday. I enjoy watching football, baseball, working out, and reading.

So, if you want to know me ask me!

Hi Everyone! Most of my friends are married and starting to have families of their own, which doesn't leave much time for getting out and about, so here I am. I am hoping to meet some new people, whether it be for friendship or perhaps be the one that I can settle down with and start to have a family of my own with.
I'm pretty laid back and easy going..maybe sometimes a bit too easy going as I definitely tend to put the needs and wants of others before my own. I'm a good listener and really enjoy doing little things for the important people in my life to let them know that I am thinking of them and how important they really are to me.
I love to travel and have been to quite a few places include Hawaii, Cancun, Cozumel. Puerto Vallarta, the Bahammas, St. Marten, New York. Orlando, Vegas, and I'm sure there are more that I am forgetting about. One of these days, I would love to travel oversees - perhaps Italy, Spain, France, or England. It would be great if I could find someone that would be willing to share the experience with me!
I'm a pretty open person. so feel free to ask me anything (just be ready for me to ask you anything as well). Look forward to getting to know you more!

My name is Brandi, I live in Tinley Park, IL. I'm almost 20 years old.
I care too much and wear my heart on my sleeve.
I'm a smoker, I rarely drink and I don't do drugs.
I'm definitely a happy person, but I'm lonely.
I'm a cuddler, a fighter, a cuddler and I trust too easily.
I've been hurt so many times, I'm waiting for "the one;"
...even as cliche as that is.. hah.
I'm far more mature than other girls my age;
i grew up fast and I know what I want.
I'm extremely sarcastic, and basically, I won't take your shit.
I have a lot of guy friends, mainly because I don't get along
with alot of girls; there's a select few though.
I'm non-judgemental, and I expect you not to judge to
a high degree. (:

I have AIM, also, but I'll let you ask for that.

I like hanging out with people and meeting new friends. I love trying new things. i use to be a cheerleader and i like to work out and i always wanted to go into the army. i didnt go because i had a baby. now i have a 5 month old son. im wanna find someone that i can spend time with and just have a good time.

I have a wide variety of interests, including biking, fishing, reading, traveling, spending time with friends and family... I enjoy talking with others who can carry on an intelligent conversation. I am very open-minded and have pretty strong beliefs and morals. I am happy relaxing and watching a movie or going out to a club to have a good time. Hope to hear from you!

I am a regular guy down to earth guy living in the south burbs,..
I am someone who like's to go out and have fun.. Meet new people and see different places... I am also the type just to stay in watch a movie and cuddle... I'm someone that like's to have fun and be who I am....I am a decent guy..very easy going and always up to meeting new people...

Im a 20 year old trying to establish himself in todays society. I am a certified EMT-B and am going to go back to school for my medic's license soon. I want to be a firefighter/paramedic. I can be a little shy, but i open up quickly. I play a little guitar, and music definitely drives my life. I have a small tight-knit group of best friends who mean the world to me. I can be a bit of a cynic, but i always try to see the sunny side of the situation. I try to make everyone laugh, and some of the time i succeed. Others not so much. What it comes down to is I work 3rd shift and i typically work between 40 and 50 hours a week. I don't get out as much as i would like. When i do its usually with the same group of people. So i don't really meet anyone new or interesting. So ya, thats it for now.

Im Looking for a girl that i can trust, thats big with me. Also someone who i can laugh with and have a good time, but knows when to give me ny space. She also must not be a clinger. i hate that .. lol .but most importantly i would want her to stick by me no matter what as i would do for her.

Well, where to start? I'm a college graduate, working full-time as a groomer. I love animals and everything to do with animals, so I plan on working with them for the rest of my life. I would say that I'm pretty intelligent, I have a good sense of humor, I'm fun-loving, loyal, and trust-worthy. Sadly, I'm also very shy, so it's hard for me to meet new people. I'm hoping to meet someone on here though :)

Who I'm interested in meeting:

One of the most attractive qualities in a man is intelligence. I feel it is very important to have a good head on your shoulders. However, I also think it's very important to have a good sense of humor and a good personality. Looks are not that important to me, but I do believe that it's hard to have a good relationship with someone that you are not physically attracted to at ALL. I do think that attraction to a person can grow as you get to know them though. I would prefer to meet someone who has a job or is in school or is doing both, but it's not absolutely necessary. That just shows that you're motivated and doing something with your life and I feel that that's an important quality. I AM NOT INTERESTED IN JUST A HOOK-UP. I would not be on a DATING site if that were the case. So, if you're interested in a relationship and you want to start something that might become serious, then send me a message. Otherwise, you're wasting both my time and yours.

I love trying new things and meeting new people. That's why I'm here. I have never actually met anyone off of the internet but why not, just don't kill me. I basically do and like everything so that leaves what I'm looking for pretty much open. I love my family. I work out everyday, I just don't feel right if I'm not in good shape. I like to drink every once in a while. Going to bars or away to a school for the weekend. Me and my friends have a blast, you will enjoy hanging out with us(and me). I have 3 tattoos and more to come.

I'm Samantha Lynn. I'm an introvert, & I have the tendency to be very optimistic. I'm a huge bookworm, and a bit of a wallflower. I know what I want in life. I listen to oldies music. I'm the girl who sits alone at lunch & reads. I am an artist in every way possible and it I consider it my addiction & can talk about it for hours. To get away from the world, I sit in my old tree house from when i was a girl.I play several instruments & aspire to one day have my own label. My favorite thing to wear is a cardigan. I occasionally smoke cigarettes & write poetry. My favorite place to be is a concert or a basement & I am a dedicated vegitarian.

Hey, whats up? I'm Mike and for some reason or another, you have reached my profile. My life pretty much revolves around music. I have been into playing, listening, and writing music for about 5-6 years. I am looking for a girl that is passionate about what she believes in, and hopefully me. I am very open minded, and am willing to talk to just about any girl out there.
