About Me

I am a curious person who gets enthusiastic about anything from cell biology to Shakespeare to weird ice cream flavors. By training I am a cultural scientist, a linguist (I speak English, French and Polish as well as German, my mother tongue) and a literary scholar. But I enjoy everything that teaches me about the things that go on around and within us - if you happen to know the popular science radio show "Radiolab" or the "TED talks"; that's very much what I love to relax to after a day of teaching at my university and producing some more pages of what is going to become my dissertation one day...I am a very good listener and interlocutor, because I can put myself into other people's shoes to give them advice or just comfort. I am generally optimistic and encourage others as much as possible. But I can be also quite direct too, especially with friends and family, because loyalty to me means that you sometimes have to tell people what they don't want to hear - and I accept the same honesty as far as I am concerned. Still, I am basically a harmony-seeking person who doesn't like to quarrel; yet I will speak frankly when something bothers me. With the people closest to me I can enjoy silence as much as laughter and talking. I love eating and cooking (not sure which one is more satisfying) and I frequently try out new recipes. I have a sweet tooth that is definitely stronger than me. But fortunately I also enjoy exercizing. Especially when I'm running I feel like leaving everything behind. I can lose myself in music and literature and I think that in a positive sense I don't have a taste in either, I just have moods. I cherish a classical piece of music (medieval, Baroque, Romantic, minimal) as much a fine crossover project, world music, progressive bluegrass (Bela Fleck) or just some good healthy pop beats. I consider this "hopeless tolerance" a good thing: beauty is where you find it - or where it finds you. I love to take pictures and to do creative writing, to travel and to meet new people (my personal highlight last year was a three-). I guess it's time now to talk about "what I'm looking for" with my profile. Maybe it's too simple, but for me it's really about having good conversations with you in the first place and letting things go the way they "want to", nice and easy. I am not disappointed if I don't find "the" one big love at once (to be honest, I don't believe in "the" big love). Let's start by getting to know each other and see what happens. If you like my rather "slow paced" approach, if you're open-minded, honest, positive and generous, don't wait to e-mail me. But please, do me a favor, don't just send a general "Want to meet you" message, I won't react to those. Rather start an actual converstation with me, tell me about yourself or ask me a question, I'd love to hear from you! Oh, and one more thing: For me, the message service here is more like an ***, so please don't be bothered if I don't get into chat-like messaging with you right away.Tschüss. Doing something active together like cooking, hiking, or going to a concert/museum etc.. Anything that lets us getting to know each other!

    Ugh. Ok, let's see.... I'm separated with 2 awesome kids, and I have a great job that I love. I'm pretty out going when you get to know me but can pretty shy at first. I'm not looking for a hook up but I'm also not looking for an *** relationship. I would like to meet new people and date a little :) I love meeting and talking to new people, so please feel free to message me!

    Woman. 27 years old. Zodiac sign: Gemini.

    Looking for: man. In age: 24-34

    The perfect man does not exist but there is someone perfect for me. I'm not perfect and will admit I have flaws. Looking to find a connection with someone and build on that. I'm a sucker for a cute smile, making me laugh and a great massage. Romance is nice. Simple gestures are usually the best, but every girl loves to be spoiled occasionally. I am a single mother of 2 so my kids will always come first. Otherwise i love to show affection and appreciation for those i care about. I'm old school and believe a woman should take care of her man, the home and kids. But still be free to be who she wants to be. I enjoy cooking and baking and will try almost anything once. I try to learn to cook a large variety of food. Like most girls i love to shop even for groceries but especially sexy shoes! But I'm a bargain hunter and don't feel embarrassed to use coupons! It is my dream to be a NICU nurse which I'm working towards. I love children and animals, especially horses! I listen to most music but especially like reggae, hip hop, R & B, soca and dancehall. Enjoy going out but also enjoy being together with loved ones no matter where we go. I have never travelled but would love to. I used to play sports but am a supporter now but still try to remain active. Mostly basketball, football and soccer. I'm a hard worker and put all my effort into everything i do. Am currently working on maintaining a healthier and active lifestyle, which am also teaching to my children. On a side note I'm a scorpio and can be very adventurous! Side note: I'm not here for a one night stand or a 'good time'. I can find that easily enough on my own. Please don't msg me if all you want is a quickie. I'm looking for something more substantial then a friend with benefits. Thanks for respecting my wishes! *** 75B51BB7 This could be a couple of options depending on what mood we are in:drive-in movie with a late-night picnicdinner and a playConcert and pool afterward Sports event
