I am having my appartment re-painted and carpeted this week so I am staying at the Kinghts Inn on Greenbay while they are doing it. Its sort of like a mini-vacation for me! Anyways, while I am here I would like to have a "special friend" or "shag buddy" if you will. Someone to go out to dinner with, have drinks with and then bring you back to my room for some real fun!

Bad girl looking for fun - w4m (Quencher Smoothies) 27yr

2009-12-26T06:07:17-06:00

Who wants to meet up with me near Quencher Smoothies and grab some wine with me elsewhere. I don't want to spend the night out, because it's always sexy time in my dark apartment--never really sexy time out there. We can do whatever you want, with very few limits. Make me feel good while being very, very bad with me.

Make sure you're well fed, you're going to need to energy.

2009-12-26T06:06:46-06:00

Why should I date boys my own age, when there are lots of older men out there that could be fun to play with. I can only imagine what a real intense sexual encounter feels like. What you see is what you get with me. I'm a pretty laid back kind of girl, who just likes to have a good time. Wanna hook up tonight? Myabe grab a coffee at Starbucks on W Washington St. If you're lucky it may just happen. Will you make me turn my eyes your way? You'll only know if you try.

let's go ice skating! 20yr

2009-12-26T04:34:24-06:00

so.

i'm new to chicago, coming off of a cold, lonely christmas, and i want to go ice skating!

i know like... three people in this city and not one of them knows how to skate.

any takers? i'm not awesome at skating, but i'm awesome enough to skate backwards and drag you around.

speaking of awesomeness, that's a trait that you, mr. potential-ice-rink-suitor, should possess.

ya dig?

allow me to pick your brains, lads. 21yr

2009-12-26T04:23:05-06:00

boys.

answer me this: when you see a woman that you are attracted to, what do you do? what should you do?

let me elaborate on the basis for my question...

i hate being alone. however, i nonetheless make something of an effort to remain as such. you see, i'm young and good looking. i get asked if i do modeling multiple times a day. i'm in the best shape i have ever been in, and probably ever will be in. i dress well, am articulate, well read, very well educated and conversational.

however, none of the later seems to matter. guys seldom can get past googling at me, grabbing my ass, rubbing my legs, groping me, or making crude comments. i refuse to go home from the bars or the club with you guys. when you approach me in the coffee shop, on the street or in the "L", it's always prefaced by a compliment that i have the nicest legs you've ever seen (or something to that effect). which is a lovely compliment, but its bullshit. everyone watches pornos.

i know you can have intellectually stimulating conversations amongst yourself and even with girls that are less attractive than i. but talk to a beautiful young lady in an intelligent manner? never.

i get it. boys will be boys. i like having sex too. i like pretty things too. but i just hope you realize what you are doing.

i refuse to be objectified, and therefore i am doomed to be cold and alone: painfully single. i wish i was fat and ugly.

that was something of a feminist rant, distorted by my self-pity.

Cabin fever 37yr

2009-12-26T04:07:21-06:00

The year breathes to a close. There will not be any last gasps from this year, its come and I need it to be gone, done and over with. To that end, I have blissfully saturated myself on just me, inside the sardine box I call home, wanting life to just pass me by for the last coupla weeks. Mayhap I feel a little cabin fever, mayhap somehow I am less disillusioned with people, love, communication, relationships and all that hoopla that has stopped making sense to me. Last year around this time, I kind of figured that 2009 would be a year of magic. Silly you, not fantastical dragon-slaying magic. Just the kind of magic where all the pieces of you settle and all is warm and good in your world. You know the kind of magic I mean, where you wake up and don't feel jaded, where little things touch you and bring grace to the mundane, where most every person you meet is a friend waiting to be discovered, where plans, dreams and hopes come to fruition and laughter is just a thought away. That kind of magic, do you remember it? Unforced, easy and free but never cheap, it is too rich with the possibility of life.

I didn't count on my best friend introducing me to a man who turned out to be married who sucked up the better part of the year and left me feeling broken and used and teetering on the edges of trust and belief in the world I had built. I didn't count on getting so sick that the things I had dreamt and worked towards for years would eventually be put quietly away with as much dignity as the humiliated can bear. I didn't count on watching my friends getting sucked into their own tales of bitterness and broken hopes and act as if it were something they deserved and thus expected and called something weird like growth and life experience. I didn't count on getting tired of hearing about battle stories called love and can no longer bear to travel the same relationship dynamics I felt at home in. I really didn't count on the magic of the world leaching from my eyes or my skin aching at the thought of opening up like a bud to blossom once more.

Some ubiquitous they, says we should put our desires out into the universe and if we wish upon a star hard enough we will find the path to the kind of magic that makes life more than the sum of our parts. I don't know if that is true. The stars are kind of out of reach, would be fatally fiery up close, surrounded by so much dark space and really are not at their best above city lights. Instead, I will wish upon me and my desires and hone my actions to bring those desires forth from within me.

As the year closes, I wish for love in all its manifestations that resembles love. Warm, kind, gentle, strong, passionate, honest, faithful, innocent and joyful. Words and actions to coalesce to once again bring belief and faith in integrity. Striving to be the best me in what can at times be a harsh world. A healthy dose of pragmatism to ground my penchant for flights of fancy and temper the tendency to gullibility. Plumbing my depths to imagine new dreams to be worked for. Stories to delight me and marvel at the infinite world of possibility contained in the spirit of a single person. Gratitude for my recovered health and not judge the imperfect body too harshly, for though it heralded the year with lows, it has closed it fully functional once more. And magic, for the magic to slowly make its way back to my eyes.

May you too find the magic in the coming year.

Stuck in the Fire Swamp, Take II (River North) 35yr

2009-12-26T03:01:40-06:00

I posted the ad below a month ago when I was in town for Thanksgiving, but little did I know, gmail decided to put responses in my spam folder. So, here goes again - only this time gmail and I have had a little chat first. I'll be around for a week, so if the post below appeals and you want to meet up, feel free to drop me an email and a photo. See below for applicable rules and regulations.

And now back to our originally scheduled programming:
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

I'm back in town for the holidays, and wouldn't mind some company for a movie, drink, dinner, or live music while I'm here. Of course, I realize some background might be helpful since this IS craigslist, and you're figuring that the odds are good I'm a bot (or so it seems from many of the M4W posts). In a nutshell, I've gotten around. A lot. I've lived in Tel Aviv, Michigan, Philly, Florence, LA, Puerto Rico, NYC and Chicago, and about a year ago, to my utter shock and chagrin, a small town in the mid-west with innumerable lightning sand sinkholes and R.O.U.S.'s. So, I like to try to pack a lot into my trips back to Chicago (which I make every six weeks or so).

Now for a disclaimer: I was an attorney, but oddly enough, am now in medical school (which significantly detracts from any attempt at a social life). In addition to travel, I've got some eclectic (even geeky) predilections I can share with you to further demonstrate that I'm not some figment of a bot's imagination: quirky or action films, anime (favorite's Miyazaki), sci fi (Farscape puts Stargate to shame), anything vampirish (except Twilight, et al.), tech gadgets, 80's music (liars club/saturdays, neo/thursdays), brazilian rock/bossa nova, Elliott Smith, recently Marissa Nadler (Mazzy Star-ish), Texas BBQ (Smoque will do), sushi, medium-rare steak (with left-overs for my faithful rat terrier) and crispy bacon, to name a few. And if I really wanted to show you that I'm not your typical Buttercup, I was on a MUD or two in the mid-90's. Achem. Less embarrassingly, I can share that I recently went to the Pixies concert and was in a minor state of bliss. Finally, for those of you skimming for the nitty gritty, I'm 5'3" & 114 lbs, and the photos below were taken within the past 30 days.

So, this is where you come in. I really wouldn't mind meeting up with someone smart, tall (yup - got a bit of a height fetish), witty and easy on the eyes to join me for some entertainment when I'm in town. You know who you are. Now step up and save me from the dreariness of the fire swamp.

P.S. - Of course, a photo is necessary to rule you out as an R.O.U.S., so respond without a photo at your peril. No photo = R.O.U.S. And please be single (this is craigslist, so it apparently must needs be said).

P.P.S. - I know, I know, this is request is INCONCEIVABLE!

P.P.P.S. - If you're scratching your head and wondering what an R.O.U.S. is, perchance this post isn't up your alley. Try looking up the movie The Princess Bride.

Not the camera-shy type. :P (Chicago) 21yr

Alive with the glory of love (Chicago) 24yr

2009-12-26T02:41:28-06:00

I'm not lonely for the holidays. I have family and friends that I will be spending it with. I just want that special someone to appear to me in some way, shape, or form. My instincts usually tell me to just let things happen naturally. But I tend not to be so out and about in these nasty weather times. I'd much rather catch up on some sleep pr movie watching of some sort. I do work. I have to. School is another obligation I must cater to as well. I'm an on and off again student. Will finish soon. But I'm going the distance. Which means it's going to be a long time for my major of course. I am a real goofy kind of girl. I have a sense of humor about everything. Given the right crowd it's hard for me to be serious. But if I'm surrounded by dull, lameness, I'll opt to stay quiet and not force words out of mouths. I am subtle and have every intention of staying that way. I don't bombard or force anything in any sense. I'm not a pushy girl, but I am told that I am pretty blunt by all my friends. So they claim when they are asked to describe me in those friend surveys on a social network site that shall remain nameless.
More about me.. Well as typical as this may sound. I love my music. I don't have any sort of musical talent. I admire the art of music. I appreciate all kinds. Sometimes I know the words to songs of a genre I wasn't particularly extremely a big fan of. I.E. 80s pop, or a random folk song, or country. No offense against any of those...but you catch my drift...maybe?
Anyway I like the outdoors when it doesn't interfere with my commute. I could endure anything given the right supplies. I want to get a group to go camping. Not pampered camping either. Well maybe a spot for showering would do. Cause cleanliness is a must. I like video games. I am pretty competitive and persistent in games or sports so I'll keep at it til I'm at least at some sort of above average level. I like volleyball, softball, and basketball. Spring time is great for the first two. Basketball is good when it's cold out. I like to spectate football. Not a die hard fan....but I do know what's going on. I do love the bears and will cheer them as I should. Kinda have a big dislike for Green Bay. Who doesn't in Illinois. Similar to my dislike of the Florida Marlins. Go Cubs! I don't care what you Soxies say. You stick to yours and I'll stand behind mine. I won't trash talk. Not nice. You shouldn't either. Yeah you have the world series, but we are going to get it soon comrads. When we do the mayhem will break through the streets. I'm looking forward to it.
For leisure...I'll play pool. Bowling is ok. I am pretty good at it. I'm not in the 200 category but I'm not a gutter rat either. My family is really into pool and such. I can be but I have such a short attention span sometimes. I lose interest. Especially when my opponent has no competitive spirit and I know I could beat them. I like playing cards. Poker, texas hold em, and I once was good at spades. But wow, did I lose it in spades. Horrible. No challenges please =)
For the boy I hope to find. Just be yourself. I really am an open mind. But I don't want a criminal or ex criminal thuggish man. Not into heavy drug users or any other chemical dependencies. I don't really want someone who will kill me cause he is off his meds either. Is that picky or just me being safe? Touche huh...The age oh the age. I'd say in your 20s like me. Preferably someone with no baggage or ex wife syndrome or the dreaded "baby mother." Ambition is great. And not ambition to go get hammered and laid either. I like someone who's intentions are pure. No hang up's cause I am not your ex girlfriend nor do I want to hear story after story about your ex. Promise? I don't think a bot can ramble like I just did. So yes I am real. And please don't send pics of your junk. Cause that's exactly what it is to me. Well good luck to everyone and Merry Chrismahanukwansakuh to you!

Looking for Harry Dresden - w4m (around 57th) 25yr

2009-12-26T02:40:37-06:00

If you are not Harry Dresden, you at least need to be a huge fan, like me. I wish we could actually meet at McAnally's -but I guess Hopleaf would be the next best.

If you don't like long hair or girls who wear glasses, then skip on down to the next ad. Otherwise, write me and let's meet.

I'm not superstitious, but I'm a little 'stitious. (chicago) 19yr

2009-12-26T02:34:34-06:00

As you hopefully could tell by the title of this post, I love The Office. I also love Pad See Ew, documentaries/ shows I'll learn something from, catchy music, using waaay too many commas, tattoos, new experiences, the aquarium, gettin' all dolled up, thoughtful gestures, and juice. Things I don't love? Assholes, people who are too indecisive, snow... Hmm, can't think of anything else really. I try to stay positive.

I'm a genuinely good person who wants to meet someone nice, sentimental, and who knows how to have a good time. I don't mind if you smoke or drink. I actually prefer it if you like to party sometimes. I'm open to pretty much any kind of person. Not going to lie, it's a definite bonus if you're tall or attractive, but I can see past appearance as long as you keep yourself maintained. As long as you hold yourself to some sort of standard, I don't even care who's standard it is.

E-mail me with why you think we'd be a match and if you're feeling particularly bold maybe a picture or two. :)

Of course, I can't but I'm looking for one night of amazing love to give me a good boost of happiness and maybe even some protein boosts too! Get at me soon alright

Inexperienced looking for dominant man.. (Northside) 21yr

2009-12-26T00:30:16-06:00

Hello. First off I should probably explain my title....

I am very inexperienced sexually and looking for a dominant man to hopefully take control of me and do what he wishes..even if I put up a little fight...this has always been something I have been attracted too, but never really tried. I am up for light bondage, etc., but nothing extreme. I do ask that you be patient as I have had relatively no prior encounters with this sort of play....I am also quite shy in the bedroom and may need some good coaching to help me step out of my comfort zone.

That said, in public I am quite open-minded and very outgoing. I love talking to all hours of the night, playing loud music, playing soft music, drinking on occasion but not often, nor any other drugs. I love to play guitar and write songs. I love cooking and anything that requires creative abilities really. education is my passion, and you will find me reading a math book even on christmas day....know that I am a complete nerd in that aspect. I am also just under 5'11 and just a little thick, nothing too crazy. I do workout often. I have dark blonde hair and blue eyes.

For you, please be at least 6' and strong enough to be able to toss a girl like myself around a little bit. So please include height and your build in your description. I also do like the dark hair, light eyes look but that is nothing I am concerned with. Weight really doesn't matter to me, as long as you are able to do the aforementioned and don't mind a girl who isn't stick thin. As education is important to me, please have a decent head on your shoulders and speak correctly. I also have a thing for older men, but once again it's not a deal breaker.

You must include a pic with your reply or I am sorry but I won't answer it. nothing personal, I just don't like bots and I figure this is one way to weed them out. The other is please put 'Go HAWKS!' in your title so I know you are real.

I look forward to your reply.

looking for my photo copy self - w4m (87th) 27yr

2009-12-25T23:58:38-06:00

Do you like the same things I do?

STUFF MOST PEOPLE LIKE:

Art & literature, travel (road trips or world trips), festivals, good music & conversation, learning new things, laughing with friends.

ADDITIONAL STUFF I HOPE YOU LIKE:

Talking to Strangers, Getting Lost in Strange Places Especially Far From Home, Crashing Parties, Chasing Parades Dressed Like Cats, Urban Exploration, Trespassing, Writing, Becoming Unusually Ecstatic at Festivals, Cartooning, Point & Shooting

Movies:

City of Lost Children (2795), A Clockwork Orange (2771), Pan's Labyrinth (2006), The Godfather (2772), Amelie (2001), Fight Club (2799), Full Metal Jacket (2787), Spartacus (2760), Ghost in the Shell (2795), Starwars (2777), The Princess Bride (2787).

About Me:

I'm good at details, but plot eludes me. Life is always a series of vignettes sloshing around in a god bag for me. Could I sew them all together like damaged socks? More like trying to sew together a bag of cats.

In short:

Let's be friends. Then we'll see.

PS: The photo thing. Ok, ok, we can do that. You first.

PSS: If you do not like these things, THEN PLEASE DO NOT RESPOND.

I know there has to be one.... (Northside) 40yr

2009-12-25T23:57:46-06:00

Please tell me that there is at least one real guy out there who is 40ish, not creepy or looking for a centerfold/arm candy set up. I am a REAL woman, fun, outgoing, kind of cute, REAL, non-smoking, no kids, laid back, not insane, and did I mention fun? Looking for a genuine, down to earth guy who is kind and has a decent sense of humor. Is that really too much to ask?

Maybe we can catch a show at Schuba's or have drinks at Pop's. Or just email until we both chicken out. I am happy to send a pic after you send one, and not of your junk, okay? Who knows, maybe we can salvage this season after all. Happy Holidays. Please put "real deal" in your subject line so that I know you aren't a scammer/spammer.

End of year wish (Chicago ) 39yr

2009-12-25T23:50:42-06:00

It's just about the end of the year and I find myself still searching for my Mr.Someone.
I've asked for that tall guy and have found only short ones.
Asked for humor and night time fun and have gotten some, but nothing substancial or long term.
I've let my crazy friends fix me up with their so called matches and found that I must be in a bad slump.
Santa only left a coupon for a man under the tree- what's up with that????
This funny, quirky, gal of height and spark is looking for her Mr. Someone.
Santa - if you read this let me know what's on the list.

So Christmas is over. I am really bored and know there are plenty of freaks out there. Go ahead and vent your holiday based anger at me. Tell me your dirty secrets. Try to pervert me into tears... Whatever, just entertain me for the next couple hours before I go to sleep.

2009-12-25T23:32:17-06:00

...for what, I'm not sure. All I can say is that it's winter. Humans need to snuggle.

I'm just going to say it: I'm a sapiosexual. But not a fetishist about it; there is nothing more unappealing than somebody waving a Mensa membership about. I like smart people who wear it lightly.

I'm a very physical person (this isn't meant as some kind of craigslist code), but I'm not really interested in anything, casual or serious, if there isn't cerebral and (ooo dang) emotional connection. Curious, literate (books & emotions), communicative...these are good adjectives.

Some keywords for me:
glasses
43 years old
city-dwelling
BBW (politically, as well)
arty
fairly goofy
left-leaning
affectionate
cynical/idealistic
hourglassy
bookish (but not a bluestocking)

Not interested in anybody much older than I...say, 45-ish.

Write if you're interested. Extra super-special points if you're not into constant texting!

Can I entice you? - w4m (Pink Monkey) 26yr

2009-12-25T23:25:27-06:00

Okay, maybe this is just odd, but I guess I'm an odd sort of girl, looking for a guy who might find that to be a turn on! So, I'll just lay it right out there and see who might want to be a part of my little fantasy!

Here's the thing. I'm into watching girls. Now, I've never actually played with a girl and don't know if I would, but I really do get into a good strip show. And most places that do that are pretty classless, unfortunately, but I did find this place called Pink Monkey. It's clean, nice, and they have great wings! It would be great to find a guy willing to go enjoy the show with me, while I enjoy watching him watch the girls, and then maybe if the evening goes well, we can have some fun taking it out on each other! You game?

I'm not fake nor will I send you to a site (Crown Point, Indiana) 27yr

2009-12-25T23:02:02-06:00

I know guys get tired of spam as so do I. I am real, but what I like most guys don't like or like but don't want a girl to like:
I like Harley-davidson, some guys say blahh to that and that is not a bike. My old bike is 1985 Honda Rebel 250.I like to go play pool, and go bowling, go fishing. I love snakes, don't ask me why. I have met like 10 yahoos off of here except the last guy I blew it with, if your still read craigs list you know who I am . And I am sorry. I just thought you didn't care. Well Merry Christmas to all. I have my own place and car.I am a single mom and a daughter. and getting a new kitten. I like forensic files and anything to do to the law. Hopefully one day I will be a Correctional Officer in Housten Texas.
I am looking for white males27-30 who are white and like music and understand being a single mom is hard. Thank you if anyone responses.

Cute gal looking... (Suburbs) 26yr

Just broke off a long-term year relationship. Not looking for anything too serious but you never know. I am a very cute girl so not too be conceided but looks are important

Without a photo I will not reply. I never do this so thought I would try it once.

Also not interested in anyone under 22 years of age.

I live near Schaumburg as well.

Lets see if we can make this happen :)

If your cute I will reply back with my photos. You wont be dissapointed.

The family is gone and now I'm... 27yr

2009-12-25T22:23:37-06:00

about to jump in a hot shower and hopefully when I come back I'll find someone captivating and new to talk to tonight! I'll be honest...it's a bit too quiet in my house right now and company would be great. Let's talk about politics, books, the unfortunate weather we may have, anything to keep things interesting.

For starters...I'm 27, Asian, 5'1 (yes, I know I'm short), and have long black hair. I also consider myself well rounded in a variety of subjects.

You....around my age, equally as interesting as myself, cultured, educated, and fun to talk to.

If you think you could be a good match, send me an email with your top three topics of choice, a picture (so I can place a face with a name), and what makes you interesting to the world. I'd be happy to offer the same.

Unfortunately in this so called, "Craigslist world," there is a lot of spam floating around. If you can't meet the above three requirements then you'll be deleted. :(

Hope to chat soon!

Take two (Chicago) 25yr

2009-12-25T22:16:37-06:00

I am an attractive, funny, smart, loving individual. I like reading good books, watching good movies, and hanging out with my friends. I decided to post something on craigslist because I thought that I would be able to get to know people that are a lot more like me then the people that I already know. So I will try this one more time....

Important things that you need to know about me....

I live and breath music, I never leave home without my ipod or my blackberry. Rock/Hip Hop/R&B/ a little Country, I love it all!!!, But mostly rock from the 90's.
I am 5"3 130lbs
I have long brown hair (and yes it is all mine).
I have nice curves.
I am well educated and I am well traveled
I like to go out and have drinks with my friends every once in a while, more so since I have been single. But I am not a club head.
I love shoes, but this girlie girl can hang with the guys.
I love to watch football from pre season to the super bowl. The Bears are my favorite team.
I usually read a new book every two weeks.
I could go on and on about myself, but I rather have u pick my brain.

What I would like from you....

Looks are important part about a person, but it is only the first impression. Yes I do need to find u attractive, but I want more then just a pretty face.
I want a guy that can hold a conversation about nothing and everything.
I want a guy to be open to trying new things.
You should be able to make me laugh and smile.
I think that a guy with a little dork inside of him and is not afraid to show it is a plus.
You have to have a fully functioning brain.
You have to be fun to be around.
I would love if you watch football.
I want to be able to learn from you.
Just have a good personality!!!!!

Now for the Superficial stuff....
I like guys with a nice build, you dont have to have a six pack, but be in good shape.
I like guys with dark hair.
If u are 6feet or more that would be great.
I am open to all nationalities, but my dating history has mostly included preppy whites guys.
I like a guy that has a couple of nice tattoos, but it's not a must. (my friends say I have a good girl gone bad thing going on).

I have to say that I do have a thing for guys that can be a little cocky. It is one thing to have self confidence, it is another thing to be a complete jack ass!!! I am looking to get to know someone and see what happens. If you are only looking for a one night stand or FWB, please exit this page and go to your local bar. If you are looking to meet a pretty cool chick for a possible long term thing (You never know what might happen) or to have coffee with, then reply to this post.

One more thing about me... I'm not you average chick of color.!!!

Writer seeks coffee date tomorrow (Lincoln Park) 25yr

2009-12-25T22:15:10-06:00

Do you ever find yourself going to the local cafe, sitting down and proceeding to half-read, wondering if someone attractive will sit down across from you who will just happen to strike up a conversation so interesting that you will stay in the cafe all afternoon, just talking and laughing and letting the day pass by?

I do and I imagine you do, too. Why else would you be on Craigslist on the Christmas? Okay, maybe you're one of those guys that is looking for something far more scandalous than a simple coffee date. In that case, please keep looking.

But if you'd like to meet an interesting girl who likes to write, paint, travel, throw impromptu parties, is 5'9 with brown hair and blue eyes, and believe in serendipity, then write me back and I'll look for you in a cafe tomorrow.

Seeking Intelligent and Adventurous for the Holidays (Chicago) 30yr

2009-12-25T22:11:25-06:00

I simply want to meet someone with similar interests for the holidays. I prefer older (not old enough to be my father) , cultured, HONEST, intelligent, articulate, yet fun and humble. My interests include running, trying new ethnic restaurants, science, medicine, museums, cafes, theatre, comedy shows, dancing, lounges, anything Japanese, baseball, and anything outdoors. Someone who can enjoy these interests as well as other activities in the city, would be ideal. Please no smokers. I'm not interested in those who are 420 friendly. If your idea of fun is defined by the number of alcoholic beverages you can handle in one sitting, we're probably not a match. Please be single and at the minimum college degreed. Please send a recent photo (within the past 3 months).

I am of Asian descent, educated, active (ran several marathons), initially timid but opinionated. If interested, please reply with a brief intro (minimum 2-3 sentences).

Thanks and Merry Christmas!

Not exactly alone on Christmas, but... (southwest burbs) 24yr

2009-12-25T21:44:15-06:00

I'm reading all these Christmas ads, and I see a lot of "I'm lonely on Christmas! Keep me company!" I'm not lonely, I'm surrounded by my family. I'm a little put off by ads like that, to be honest; I like a guy who is also surrounded by family during the holidays. But, family can be a dramatic bunch, so I retreat to my computer for a moment and browse the CL ads for fun. Like you do. Its true that being single at family gatherings can suck though. Although they don't question my love life, I can't help but be a bit jealous when everyone proudly parades around their new partners.

I'm pretty tired of being single. Though the drama-free lifestyle suits me well, I always feel there's something missing. Sure, if I want someone to randomly hang out with, I can call my best friend. Sure, if I want to cuddle because it's cold, I have my cute kitty cat. Sure, if I'm feeling frisky, I can play with "Jill" or my other friends in the drawer by my bed. But my best friend works too much, and my cat is very small. And as we all learned when we started driving, toys are no substitute for the real thing. Besides, none of the above items are useful for passionate kissing. Maybe that's what I need...

A little about me: I'm not your ideal skinny girl for sure, but apparently I'm not suitable for bbw fetishes either. Just average. Oh, but I have nice big boobs. Light brown hair, blue/green eyes, 5'7". I carry myself with confidence and strength (well, at least when I'm not meeting a guy for the first time.) I'm pretty direct, so people are surprised sometimes if they don't expect it. I'm in professional school, so I'm rather busy and can't keep up with anyone very needy right now. I would love it if you have a job or school you're busy with too (but can make some time for being together.) Hotwords: traveling, outdoors, cooking, science, animals, bikes, tennis, anime, reading, writing, inventing.

Send a pic so I know you're for real, and I'll respond in kind. Talk to you soon!

Ok, I have never just come right out and put it all out on the table but I am going to put it all out this time. lol I am not crazy! I just really want to see what kinda response i get when you put all of the info out there.

Well there is good news and bad news. i like to get bad news first so lets get that out of the way I am forty two yrs old. I wish that I was younger, but there is no looking back, The good news here is that I look and feel much younger

I am a bigger gurl. I've recently lost 45 lbs and I have about 20 more to lose (bad news). My body is not that bad, but I have semi-long hair and a beautiful face (or so I have been told).

I have had my version of a mid-life crisis and I am trying to figure out how to handle it (in terms of work). I am working, but it is not my permanent career. The good news here, I definetely dont need or wnat your money. I am straight in terms of that.

I am a very sexual person with a very high sex drive! No bad news here!

I am a nice woman in her forties that is pretty, but no where near perfect. I am a lot of fun to be around. I am smart and interested in a lot of differnt sorts of things. I have a 11 year old son that I adore. I am looking for a friendship that starts off casual and maybe grows into something more. I do like a younger man, but I am not closing myself off to anything. Let me know if you are interested!

I guess what I want is a man who doesn't care about the fact that I am white. I just want a decent man, is that too much to ask? I tend to get along better with guys. If you are interested hit me up and lets see if it can work.

If you think you might be interested reply with a picture por favor

2009-12-25T21:11:30-06:00

my post is completed as... "Belle femme noire pour le gentilhomme fran�ais qui veut de l'amour vrai". I am very specific about what I want.

I am a decent, honest and warm woman. I am not playing games...if you read this and want a genuine person to communicate with, please reply. If you play games or don't send the reply with a real photo, I will not respond.

I am educated, witty, and desire to meet only a Frenchman (French born and raised) that wants to get to know me for a possible long term relationship. You must be funny, educated, love museums, art, dining and great conversation. I seek a person single, (not married) man between the ages of 40 and 55, who knows God and serves him but not fanatical. Understands what it means to be honest and kind in his heart. Someone who loves to travel... Someone who wants to love and be loved.

These attributes delight me and I hope they delight you... Again, I want a man who is open to the possibility of friendship, love and all the things that come with it.

If you choose to respond to this ad, please do so with excitement and a sense of wanting to get to know me. Please send a photo and I will send one back once I see that you are serious...

Take care and I await your response.

2009-12-25T21:11:18-06:00

Maybe not the right way to start this but honestly
I wish I didnt need to post this ad. I just figured i would meet you in a mainstream place like the dollar store or a restaurant but I am dreary of wishing and attempting to play my deck lol. so anywho I want to find an individual who doesn't look at here a lot. Really just an individual who is also waiting to meet some one really supportive and just decided to look here....

So I am witty, laidback and very dependable. I am 5'8" a size 18 but still look nice

black hair and green eyes. I am the most loyal friend you'll ever have. I am a phenomenal listener, reliable, with a little bit of playful sarcasm. I am a major music lover and like 90's music and country from today. I also love watching movies or plays all sorts of stuff from comedys to chick flicks. Don't stop reading now lol..I've got lots of girlfriends to go with me to the girly movies lol. What more could you wanna know? I am more times than not the person who is attempting to ensure that everyone around me is enjoying themselves. I really love making other people laugh. I've been working a ton on myself this last couple years and now I'm much happier.

So what do I want? Ok so I thought up a really long list ... only joking lol! Actually I hope to find a an individual, thats doesnt lie, dependable, independant, and a man that has a job must be would be great. Also he must be understanding of my happier way of living and support me to continue and to do fun stuff. If you like baseball or racing that would be a huge plus too.

almost forgot I just recently moved back to Newman after a year of living in Kansas maybe you could to show me whats fun to do!

Don't judge me for posting this, especially since you are reading this lol.

I'm 23, mixed races black and cuban got a nice body. PAY ATTENTION: Im looking for someone NEAR my age range! Not somebody thats 50 and has 5 kids. I'm not looking for perfection just dont be a complete a hole. Really tho Im not conceited at all I play around a LOT and I'm real stupid once i get comfortable wit u.

Lets chat and see whats up? Also please don't lie in your message, I will see right through it and wont respond.

2009-12-25T20:53:51-06:00

Ok I'm not saying there is anything wrong having, but it seems like that is the only thing men in my age range want. They don't want to get to know you, they don't want to hear too much about who you are as a person. All they want is sex....the first night. If they have to take you out for drinks they will but would rather you come to their house for a glass of "cheap" wine and go at it. They say they will call you because they enjoyed being with you and would like to get to know you.........of course they won't.

Now I've had a couple act like they want to get to know me but when I advise there will be no sex on the first date..i never hear from them anymore. In all reality I might have sex on the first date...but it would be because we have something...a spark...some chemistry. I just won't do it for the sake of doing it.

So if you are still reading.. If you want to get to know someone, have someone to museams with, enjoy good concerts with, laugh with....and yes, even enjoy sex with let me know. I'm not interested in one night stands...no friends w/benifits. I would like a long term relationship but not necessarily marriage. I enjoy romance, holding hands, hugs, museams, concerts...and good conversation.

your pic gets mine........now lets see if i get any responses.

Straight Up:: I'm not going to be dat chick all of you guys are looking for.

I'm going to be extremely frank. I am NOT lookin for ANY kind of sexual action. No swingin, nsa, one nighters No way. You can stop readin now.

Second, drugs are a real stupid way to trash your potential. This includes squares. I dont understand y invest your cold hard cash into things temp and unhealty? I'll tell you what...next time you feel the need to light your money on fire, call me up and I will go blow it on a new purse. Deal?

lol ok. So either you're turned off or impressed by now. Please dont even waste the time to type an email to tell me im shallow or stuck up or whatever.. I'm doing both of us a favor by being up-front-games are for kids andim too old to play.. And plus, if I were to find out you did drugs, i could easily be that girl to report it. :) Have a nice day!

If you are still reading and you are one of the few who agrees with the above, cool beans!! Then our new friendship is starting right

I'm looking for friends first first, of course. Not married, no kids, no drama.

I love music: Not all i dont really like hip hop or country.. I'm more alt/rock/indie/sometimes pop. A few faves: U2, DMB, Matchbox20, The Starting Line, Jason Mraz, John Mayer, Queen, a bunch of local stuff, Red Hot Chili Peppers... you get the gist.

I am SO down with watchin movies at the crib rahter than going out to the movies. It's kind of expensive, especially if if u arent sure about the movie you're going to see. Plus, those theatre arm rest make it kinda difficult to be close! :P

I am old fashioned in many ways, but I live in the real world and I certainly aint perfect. I can make and take a joke and sometimes I even show my ankles or my elbows! lol (if u dont get it ask your granny granny...haha)

anyhoo, I'll close this up. I'm looking for friends first, like I said, but ultimately, someone caring, corny, humble, goofy, intellectual, independent and spontaneous. And if I were really picky, I'd say no piercings (too high school) and no tattoos. (Dont wanna see that girls name on your body.) Im generally not that attracted to smaller guys just because I'm little. Muscular/thick/fillintheblank is wat i want. Yea yeah, and white guys too. Just a personal preference.

Does all that sound like a laundry list? and i didnt even mention the application lol j/p!!!

I don't want games! (Clayton) 37yr

2009-12-25T20:29:59-06:00

So to begin with

I wish I guys would wake up so i didnt need to post this ad. I had hopes of meeting you in a usual place like the music store or a park but I am fed up of looking and attempting to play my self lol. so anyhow I want to find an individual who doesn't look at here all day. Really just a gentleman who is prepared to meet some one really cool and just decided to check here....

So I am funny, laidback and very independant. I am 5'10" a big gurl and i am working hard on my weight

black hair and greenish eyes. I am the most trust worthy friend you'll ever have. I am a phenomenal listener, reliable, with a tad bit of playful sarcasm. I am a huge music lover and like 60's music and lite rock from today. I also love watching a show anything from comedys to chick flicks. Don't stop reading now lol..I've got lots of girlfriends to come with me to the girly movies lol. What more can i say? I am more times than not the one who is attempting to ensure that everyone else is having a fun time. I really live for making other people laugh. I've been working a bunch on myself this last few years and now i am much happier.

So what do I want? So I thought up a really long list ... only joking lol! So actually I wish I could meet a a gentleman, thats doesnt beat women, dependable, independant, and a man that has a job must be would be fantastic. Also he must be understanding of my happier way of living and demand me to continue and to do fun stuff. If you like racing or baseball that would be a huge plus too.

almost forgot I recently moved back to Clayton after a year of living in Minnesota maybe you could to show me whats exciting to do!

Love holding hands and kissing. - w4m (West 79th) 27yr

2009-12-25T19:52:17-06:00

Hey ol chap..well I'm not British and never say chap in normal life but for whatever reason I type it. Though aside from that, I'm pretty normal.. I feel alone right now. My girlfriends all seem to be cheerfully dating. It's great to be with a guy that always makes you feel safe and secure.

It weirds me out when guys take longer than girls to get ready but I still like a guy who dresses up because he respects himself. All I can do now is wait and see if this ad generates any results.

Your pic gets mine.

Why do nice guys reject me? (W. burbs) 28yr

2009-12-25T19:49:21-06:00

I've heard too many times about how women are not interested in nice guys. Well, I am. The problem is, the nice guys reject me! So my search continues. I am looking for a nice, articulate, intelligent guy who is interested in a LTR. I do not post or reply to many ads on this site because most guys are either not looking for a serious relationship, or they can't write properly (big turn off). Hopefully someone can restore my faith in this site.

2010, here we come!!! ;o) (Loop) 33yr

Merry Christmas, everyone! I love the holidays and wish I had that special someone to share the festivities with --- and then snuggle up with at the end of the whirlwind day. I am a SWF, 5'7", fit, flirty and ready for a 2010 of travel and adventure. Care to join me?

Drop me a line and send a pic!

Got some gift cards for Xmas. You? (yippee!) 29yr

2009-12-25T19:24:00-06:00

I pretty much buy my own loot so I don't mind the usual half-assed family gift-giving this time of year. What I can't buy is friendship, and believe me, I looked everywhere, even the dollar store :) Every few months for the last year, found me on one tepid date after another. I don't want a full-time bf who calls and texts til my cell minutes run out, but a guy who is semi-regularly available to hang out or talk/eml with would be perfect because I fear undergoing that weird transformation that happens to attached people. Like they're somehow better and try to rub it in your face -- even on their facebook pages, they will use a couple picture for their own profile pic. That's sooo lame! Everyone I know that's officially coupled is arrogant and boring as heck. I still want to retain my independence, but my number one goal this year is to forge a solid friendship with someone really special -- not try to force it into "relationship" status, just let it happen as it will.

I work a dayjob while an artist by night. Translation: If you're looking for a sugar mama, you're barking up the wrong tree! No, I did not hit it big and you don't know my work yet, which after being creatively barren for a few years, I started up production again. Chicago is a real pain to get noticed as an artist - especially if you don't look like the poseur artist stereotype (and I don't). Real art is something I can't truly tire from; it's my passion (or maybe I'm just a slave to it), and if I'm lucky I'll find someone who can hold a conversation or my favorite, a fierce debate, about its many forms. If you can draw or sculpt, then we should get along just fine. I'm a little old world and don't tend to mesh with computer geeks who talk in ones and zeroes and leave me scratching my head. I feel the need to point that out b/c it seems like the programmer geniuses took over the world -- and the dating pool.

Contrary to popular belief, I'm not latina, nor am I chubby, a work-out-aholic, tall, tattooed, smoker, coffee drinker or barfly. What I am is big into music of all kinds, old school video games, animation, reading and books. Mainstream, non mainstream, it's all the same in the end. People make snap judgments about every last movie or song or whatever. As long as it's not too much of one thing, I don't care too deeply what no-name bands, tv shows or heroes you worship and you shouldn't care about mine because I'm not gonna list them anyway (every time I list my fave artists I get a blank stare anyway!) I should add that I suck at sports, unless you count Frisbee and ping pong? I alternate between goofy and serious, depending on whose funeral :) Things I want to add to my repertoire: photography, chess master and Quickbooks :) Hobbies are important, so let's find a common ground.

I am not interested in sharing my life story in the beginning stages nor do I want you to send me yours right away. Send me some info that doesn't sound like a form letter and tells me the important stuff. It's easy to thin the herd based on someone's writing style, not to sound snobbish, but it's annoying to get one liners. It is also a big turnoff when I hear guys swear in my presence, like they need the f-word to pepper every sentence even when they're not angry. I posted in the city part but I live about an hour commute outside of the city, so if that's a problem, too bad. I still think I am cooler than half the people in the city and have no trouble getting there when I need to.

So... let's start by having a swap of our least-needed Xmas gift (or Hannukah if yer Jewish) Yippee!

This is NOT a Christmas wish.....Just a wish (Chicago) 42yr

2009-12-25T19:20:30-06:00

I think there is nothing that attracts me more than an attentive and romantic Man. I'm looking to meet someone with a good head on his shoulders in a dating frame of mind. I live on the Southside of Chicago. I would like to find a nice man to connect with. The bar scene is not an opton for me, too fake and too many games. I want to find someone single, as I am, as well as someone straight forward.

Let's see, I like the movie theaters, bowling, shooting pool, skating (roller) and love a good restaurant. I can have a great time in a neighborhood bar with some friends, a glass of wine and shooting a game of pool OR I can grab something from my closet, throw on my high heels and roam downtown Chicago. Either way, with the right person it's always a great time!

I'm done having kids, done with the drama, have my career and know what I want and am not afraid to say so.

Let me stress this next point. Communication is key. If you go missing for weeks at a time and then send a random text out of the blue.....I'm not interested. I'm no ones booty call....ever.

What I prefer/am attracted to:

Caucasian Men
Over 35 years of age
Over 5'9
Nice Attude
Kind Heart
Conversation/Good Debate Skills/Good Listening Skills
Gainfully Employed (I very much am)
Live No More Than 20 Miles From Downtown
Have Your Own Place

I have a life just like everyone else, I simply want a man to enhance it.

Hey guys, send me a picture you know you want to see one as well. Attraction is always only physical at first. If there is no initial attraction, whats the point.

Thanks and I hope your Christmas was great!

Burrr it's cold out there! (Chicago) 28yr

2009-12-25T18:57:31-06:00

So the bar scene has proven to be somewhat, blah, therefore I don't know where else to turn. I figured that if I can get a couch here, an apartment, etc... perhaps a date too?

I'm looking for chemistry.

I'm tired of bad dates. I want someone who can be the bright spot in my day, who I can laugh and have fun with and enjoy life.

So do any SWM's between 26 and 34 want to see whats possible? I am not necessarily looking for "the one," but definitely more than a fling.

I have decided to start my New Year�s resolution early (North Kenwood) 38yr

2009-12-25T18:46:56-06:00

2010 is going to be the year of why not, I think life is too short and I am ready to take more chances�and I had to ask can I find a real long term relationship on CL�and I am hoping the answer is...WHY NOT

I am a single black female, 5�8, average (size 14) smart, funny and educated. I don�t get out as much as I would like and Mr. Right is not knocking on my door. I am a foodie, who loves plays, movies and live music. Looking for someone 35 � 45, I prefer white males thin to slightly above average in build. You should be smart, funny and outgoing and looking for something real and lasting, not just someone to be tonight. Send me an email with at least a few sentences about what you are looking for�who knows maybe we can meet for coffee tomorrow.

looking (Washington Park)

2009-12-25T16:18:16-06:00

Ok, I have never just come right out and put it all out on the table but I am going to try this time. lol I am not psycho! I just really want to see what kinda response i get when you put all of the info out there.

Well there is good news and bad news. i like to get bad news first so lets get that out of the way I am forty two yrs old. I wish that I was younger, but i havent found the fountain of youth yet, The good news here is that I look and feel much younger

I am a bigger gurl. I've recently lost 20 lbs and I have about 55 more to lose (bad news). My body is not that bad, but I have semi-long hair and a beautiful face (or so I have been told).

I have had my own little mid-life crisis and I am trying to figure out my next steps (in terms of my career). I am working, but it is not my permanent career. The good news here, I wont be asking for your money. I am straight in terms of that.

I am a very sexual person with a very high sex drive! No bad news here!

I am a nice woman in her forties that is pretty, but no where near perfect. I am a lot of fun to be around. I am smart and interested in a lot of differnt sorts of things. I have a 15 year old son that I adore. I am looking for a reln that starts off casual and maybe grows into something more. I do like a younger man, but I am not closing myself off to anything. Let me know if you are interested!

2009-12-25T16:10:40-06:00
