I like to get to know someone slowly not rush into anything. The loves in my life started as long term friendships that transformed into intimate long-term relationships. My ideal is to meet my best friend, who will view me as an equal, love my mind and body equally. I am a bit shy and warm-up slowly, set aside the time to explore the facets of my personality and you will learn "to know me is to love me".

Personality Facets: Fiesty (my dad's description), independent, out-spoken, open-minded, extremely honest, introspective, playful, affectionate, loyal, passionate...theres many more (I'm a complex person;ever-changing, never boring). Unlike a diamond, only a few of my "facets" shine at once. Just hang around me awhile and you will see them appear.

I am interested in hanging out, making friends, activity partners and a possible long-term relationship...if that should happen I would welcome you with "open arms".

I enjoy "hanging out", sharing a meal - a glass of wine is always nice, watching movies/TV, stimulating conversation. I am easily entertained, music (I like a variety)conversation (you must love to talk), movie, or an interesting "read" and I'm happy. I enjoy getting away for a few hours, days, a week or so - my favorite place is home. Its where I feel completely safe and enjoy friends and family.
