Thanks for the great responses...

Lou.. making a "wish list" about yourself... characteristics that I need to further develop within myself is a fantastic idea... and I will begin working on such a list.. I think it will work well within this weeks assignment actually.. so I thank you..

BIBI... ROFL.. believe me.. employed is a "non-negotiable". I have never found myself remotely attracted to anyone who is unable (unwilling) to work. I grew up in a home where a work ethic was pounded in early.

osuche.. I read your post.. and could completely relate.. I have several very close male friends.. that I would certainly date.. but alas.. I am the only single one in my crowd..

Lilith.. that is almost exactly what I was told.. as to why the assignment was given to me... did you copy that out of a text book? LOL.. I am NOT a text book case... LOLOLOL.. far from it.

Catch22.. this is part of an ongoing project... ME... I have begun trying to deal with my issues with a professional.. in an attempt to rid myself of excess (unattractive) baggage.. this is just the beginning.. of a long road.

Jaybee.. Thunder thighs.. don't my kind of thing.. LOL.. but I am thankful they are yours

Hugs.. and sooo much thanks..
