I am at a place in my life where I feel I could offer what I expect out of a relationship. I am finding that I am either pickier than I believed I was or there are less people out there now that I relate to. I bore easily in situations in which I don't feel inspired to grow and learn as a person. It's not a piece of cake to maintain my interest but i think it would come effortless to the right person. What do I offer? I am typically quite honest. I know when the truth hurts and when to hold my tongue but know that trust is key in any respectful relationship. I smile and laugh more than most. I am pretty low maintenance. Kids seem to love me and I think that comes from my playful spirit. I am open to new things. I have a lot of things I enjoy doing but I can usually have fun doing anything. Last but not least (though I am sure there are more) I work daily to grow as a person. Of course I am not perfect but I can admit when I am wrong and I do my best to get better each day.My ideal person would be one who considers himself above average intelligence. Someone who also enjoys reading. Someone who loves many types of music and believes life comes with a soundtrack. Not in a cheesy way but the way the music inspires memory and lights a thought in your heart, sometimes forcing you to think in new ways. He would consider his sense of humor to be that of wit and sarcasm. He is boldly confident but with an air of boyish charm. The kind of person who appreciates learning and analyzing things. He loves food and isn't a picky eater. Proper grammar is a definite bonus. As a past smoker, I understand if you smoke but you're going to have to sell me on why you're so awesome, I should overlook it. I also used to drink and now I don't. I give a big hurrah to those who drink but if it's something you do on a regular basis, especially to excess, it's a deal breaker for me. I don't expect anyone to change to meet my expectations. I know there are others out there whose ideas match my own. While I expect to differ on many things or ideas, it's important to me to find someone I enjoy spending time with doing little to nothing, with similar thoughts, ideas, hobbies and passions. I don't think that's asking too much. Expecting someone to change would be...I am quite comfortable spending time by myself but I would love to find someone who can maintain my interest. When I find someone I really enjoy, I like to see them as much as possible. I am not the woman to throw herself casually into anything. I think it's time for someone to sweep me off my feet. I am not going to ask myself out...Don't guys pursue women anymore? I believe pretty strongly that the guy should plan the date. I'm not sure if that's sheer old fashionedness or just a belief that a guy can put in some work to woo a girl. It may suck to plan a date you're afraid she won't like, but I promise not to complain since I put you up to the task. I also think that after we meet, the guy should probably pick her up as well. I really would be open to most things. Dinner, coffee, frisbee golf, a walk, a game, fishing, etc. I would rather be creative than cliche but it's really all about who you are as a person.

I'm not one to dive head-first into anything...especially a relationship. It takes time to get to know a person.I'm a very open-minded, conservate (how exactly do those two work together, you may ask!), easy-going person. There is nothing sexier than a great sense of humor and a sincere, contagious smile. I believe strongly in responsibility and dependability, but I also like to kick back, not stress about life, and just enjoy myself. I don't take myself too seriously...I think I'd probably really hate myself if I wasn't able to laugh at myself so often! My friends know that once you have earned my loyalty, you have it for life. I believe that some people are just worth the effort to have in your life. Aquaintances are a dime a dozen, but true friends are hard to come by.I'm certainly not a health-nut, but I do think health is important, and am not interested in smokers, heavy drinkers, or anyone who doesn't take care of themselves at least enough to maintain a healthy weight. On the other hand, I'm not a freak about my weight, either...I LOVE to eat, and I'm addicted to sweets...but I try to be good about balancing things out. I don't spend hours in the gym, but I don't spend hours on the couch, either. I prefer to get my exercise by being active...not by "exercising". (Although I am trying to incorporate a little more actual exercise into my schedule.)Photos are current. I assure you, I still look like my photos! No surprises here! I know how scary it is to meet someone who looks NOTHING like their photo!I can get along with most anyone, but I find it much more difficult to find that "spark"--the connection that you just can't explain. As for my "type"...professional, responsible, funny, compassionate, generous of spirit...and, of course, tall, dark and handsome doesn't hurt!I guess I have a hard time trying to decribe myself...I can be a study in contrasts at times. I'm not high-maintenance...but I'm pretty girly. I'm addicted to dresses, but I love to throw on some grubby clothes and go fishing (yes, I'll bait my own hook and clean the fish myself!). I am fiercely independent, but hate to be alone. I love travel and adventure, but I need my home base for my center and security.I love to travel and experience new cultures. There is so much in this world to see outside your own little bubble.I'm a pretty adventurous eater when it comes to ethnic food. My biggest caveat is that I HATE peppers...with a passion. I like spicy food...but I can't eat peppers. I'm willing to try most anything as long as it doesn't have peppers! They hate me back...I think I may actually be allergic.Money can't buy you love. I'm not impressed by guys who try to win you over with money. I have my own money...I work very hard for it, and spend it responsibly. My rule: if you can't afford to pay cash for it...don't buy it! In that regard, I'm a thrifty shopper. I LOVE clothes/shoes/dresses, but I don't need a designer label to look/feel sexy. I'd rather have a $20 purse with $***in it than an empty $***purse. I'm much more impressed by a guy who wants to spend TIME with me. On the other hand...I've been burned in the past in money issues(I'm not looking to support someone else), so you'd better at least make as much as I do! (not hard to do if you are a professional with a college degree.)Companionship is the true goal of all of us...Someone you are comfortable with, and enjoy spending time with, whether it's an elegant night out on the town, or a lazy Sunday afternoon doing laundry in your pajamas. Someone with whom you don't feel self-conscious about awkward silences, bed-head, no make-up... When we all get past the "posturing" of dating, and are just comfortable being ourselves. Quote:I, with a deeper ***, choose a man who compels my strength, who makes enormous demands on me, who does not doubt my courage or my toughness, who does not believe me naive or innocent, who has the courage to treat me like a woman. --Anais Nin I guess I have babbled nonsensically about myself long enough. If you read this whole thing, there must have been something you liked...send me a message! ***** NOT looking for random hook-ups or cyber-sex. *********** No smokers, please! *****A casual meeting at first...coffee...a drink...keeping the window open to letting the evening take us where it may if we decide we enjoy each other's company. Movies are a bad idea for a first meeting...and probably the first couple of dates. Sitting silently in the dark doesn't help you get to know someone!My schedule is challenging, to say the least. I work mostly evenings/nights, and alot of weekends. If you're interested, please try to be understanding, it is the nature of the healthcare field.

I'm down to earth, easy to get along with, not hard to please. I don't go to clubs, I enjoy going to the movies, bowling, playing volleyball, shooting pool. I want an attractive man, with a sense of humor. So please don't waste my time or yours by sending me a message. The first date can be simple, maybe dinner and drinks or at the park just something simple to sit and talk to get to know each other.
