Who I'm looking for
I am looking for that special someone special with whom I can share my life someone who has a serious side but does not take life too seriously and who is affectionate and romantic. I love to make people laugh and enjoy someone who makes me laugh. I find intelligence sexy. I would like to find someone who feels as comfortable in jeans and sandals as they do in a suit and tie (although these days I tend to be more casual), likes to "just hang out" and watch TV or movies at home but also likes to explore new places, museums, exhibits, and restaurants. I am looking for someone who is confident, sensitive, stable (emotionally and financially), and likes to have fun.
My ideal relationship would have trust, honesty, mutual respect, affection, the ability to laugh at ourselves and life, and the ability to communicate openly about the big and small things. Of course, it would include compatibility (on the big things) and physical attraction. We would be equal partners who support each other - but would not need to be "joined at the hip." Life is full of surprises, compromises, and bumps in the road as well as many beautiful and wonderful moments. As much as I enjoy my own company, I believe that life and its ups and downs and magical and mundane moments are better when shared with someone special.
