Looking for a friend and see where it goes from there.

I'm looking for just a friend & take my time to see what happens from there. If you are looking for more right off the bat don't waste your time on me because it's Not going to happen. Trust me on that. I am VERY guarded. Persistence will send me in running in the opposite direction. I do not trust easily. My circle of who I trust is very very small. I don't want to get married again. There's no need to. I have a 4 legged furry child (dog), her name is Elpida. SHE comes 1st. She's not just a dog. She's my baby. If you don't like that I won't like you. Read that again before you bother to continue. I do not do Needy. I'm down to earth. I'm not here to impress anyone. But I'm real. I am not full of myself & I am my own worst enemy. I am loyal to a fault but I will not allow myself to be used, disrespected or taken for granted. I work, a lot. I have a career & it requires a lot of my time & work, especially during busy season. If you text me and I don't reply immediately it's because I am working or busy. If you expect an immediate reply & follow up with "?"'s or any other message indicating that you need an immediate response just know that I DO NOT deal with anyone that needy. I prefer to relax in a quiet laid back atmosphere & watch a movie, or just talk have some great laughs. I'm far from high maintenance. I'm a t-shirt & jeans, hoodie with leggings or sweats type of chick. I like my peace & refuse to let anyone try to mess with my peace.
