here are some simple things i've learned from past relationships...see clearly, speak from the heart, listen well, do nice things for each other and laugh a lot...there's no predicting chemistry...no manufacturing true feeling...no matter what list of attributes i have...with that said, i think i am honest and kind...loyal and passionate...i am very independent, but wouldn't mind someone out there looking out for me as i would for them...i can be social, yet enjoy my solitude...i'm reserved, yet can be wildly opinionated...you can sit me next to the queen of england or a drag queen and i can find some common ground...i am a very strong person, yet helpless on an airplane...i am very down to earth, yet sometimes only the best will do...i have a strong work ethic, but can be very successful lying on my couch for the afternoon...

i've overcome many of life's difficulties and therein lies the secret to my confidence...i lead a busy, full life, but a girl needs some romance now and then...would love to have a long-term relationship with the right person...i work as an RN and set my own hours...please...no married guys...NO PICTURE...NO REPLY..."keep a green tree in your heart and perhaps a singing bird will come"

btw...i hope you aren't watching your weight...have to make room for my french pastries...also...RNs can work anywhere...i am not tied to st. louis...

i love to travel...so first date in Paris!!
