“ I'm a writer by trade, but writing about myself does not come easily. OK, here goes...The cover: a petite 110 lbs. just 5'1" (but I'm big on personality). I am told I'm attractive; you be the judge. What's inside: I am a devoted mom, a loyal friend, bright, witty, a good communicator, creative, and have a dry sense of humor. All in all, I think I'm pretty terrific (but doesn't everyone think that about themselves?). I'm a bit of a dichotomy...outgoing and a good conversationalist though sometimes shy, emotionally strong yet also sensitive, enjoy being a woman but I do have power tools and actually know how to use them. Don't need a man, I want one, but I'd prefer to be happy alone than unhappily involved. I'm well rounded with many interests , too many to list here, both indoors and out. I'm athletic and love the outdoors, enjoy numerous activities, but also love cuddling up with a good book (or a good man) and dreaming in front of a fire. I love to dance, care to join me? Bottom line: Sharing interests is wonderful, but a great relationship takes more...I'm looking for a real connection on three important levels: emotional, intellectual and physical. I'm looking for my best friend, a real partner in life. Someone I have great fun with. Someone who'll support and encourage me (as I will you); embracing our similarities as well as differences. A man who is bright and interesting, witty and wonderful, emotionally available, who can talk to me about anything and above all can make me smile...correction, make me laugh! Looking for a man who is ready to give and receive unconditional love, someone who is ready for the freedom that comes with jumping off that proverbial cliff, knowing you can be exactly who you are and it'll be OK. You are as passionate about life and living as I am. I ask for a lot. But I have a lot to give in return. I'm ready for that great relationship, for making the commitment it takes to build and sustain one. Are you?
