Please actually read my post before messaging me and respect what I say. I apologize if my annoyance shows a bit. I'm not interested in anyone with children or who are married. I'd like you to be my age or a bit older, preferably within your 30's. I won't respond to comments, just makes it easier on me. Also, if things were to progress, I'd like you to be within a reasonable distance. No more LDRs for me. But I'm not opposed to casual chatting around the globe.

There's a lot I could say about myself, so I'll stick to what seems important.

As the title states, I'm a 31 year old woman living in Georgia. I work with addicts and alcoholics in a rehab, an extremely draining but rewarding job. My work means a lot to me. It's trash pay, but there are moments that make it worth it. I'd love someone I could vent to or share the insane stories as they unfold.

I love some good-natured banter and tend to joke dryly, but that can be difficult to discern over text. I tend to give people shit, but in a playful way. I can be quite vulgar with a dark sense of humor. Honestly, my type of humor can be all over the place. I consider myself quite intelligent and wish for someone the same. I have a degree in Psychology, and I'm still debating on pursuing a higher education. Education doesn't equal intelligence, so don't feel like you need to have letters behind your name.

I've burned through a number of hobbies, but the only ones that have stuck are reading, playing video games, and doing nail art. My interests do tend to be "nerdy", but I don't define myself around that label. I like video games, but they aren't my life. I don't watch a lot of tv or movies, but I do occasionally. Sometimes I write. Sometimes I do some artsy stuff. I have a hodgepodge of arts and crafts I've done on and off through the years.

I'm a lot more tender hearted than I project. It's probably a defense mechanism. I'd like someone willing to make fun of anything, while also accepting it. I don't always say things that I think, but that I think are funny to say. Be compassionate and more progressive.

I'm not everyone's cup of tea, but I find myself pretty. I'm a bit chubby, auburn hair, green eyes, and around 5'4". And if those things are all you focus on when messaging me, I won't be impressed. Up to swapping photos when I'm comfortable. I wish everyone the best in their search!

Put something in your message that proved you actually read this, please. The last time I posted I had to filter so many messages that showed no one read my post. Might have accidently purged a few good ones.
