I am essentially a happy person.
I find my joy in the pleasure that friends and family bring to my life. In knowing that each new day is an opportunity to make a difference in someone's life. That happiness is a choice we must consciously make everyday.
I try to accept my shortcomings and emphasize my assets. I try to handle disappointment with aplomb, and celebrate my own triumphs and those of others. I treat my family and friends with the respect and love they deserve. I'm not afraid to speak my mind when my opinion is direct, tactful, and well-informed. I know to remain silent when the situation requires.
I am by nature very nurturing, sensitive, and level-headed. Yet I appreciate spontaneity particularly when it comes to romance. I strive to be defined by the strength of my resolve and the truth of my word. I can laugh at myself and have been known to cry when it's necessary. I enjoy making others feel comfortable and safe around me.
I love to make babies laugh in the supermarket or restaurants. Love guys that smell like soap. Hate B.O. and sore throats. Love good teeth. Hate unprovoked bitchiness. Love a witty retort.
I'm interested in meeting new people, making new friends, and allowing love and romance to take their course.
If you are always honest, then I believe you deserve the same. I like to stay in good physical shape and appreciate men who do as well. I don't smoke. I do like a good glass of wine shared with good friends, family, and the people I love. I surround myself with these people because they make my life worthwhile.
Most importantly: Always be yourself. If we get to know each other for who we really are, not what we imagine ourselves or want others to think we are, then a real friendship romance can develop.
I prefer that you are physically fit, intelligent, financially self-sufficient.
