I'm 24. I've lived in France, California and Texas. I'm shy, reserved and complicated. Sometimes I know what I want..... sometimes I'm completely lost.
Is it safe to say I've been hurt in the past?
Maybe iIjust want to take things slow for the first time.

I'm picky. I'll admit it. I'm looking for someone who's honest and down to earth. My definition of "down to earth" is someone who's a homebody- like me. I don't go out every weekend; I enjoy one-on-one conversations.

I'm simple and low maintenance. People who spend too much money on their wardrobe or their cars make me roll my eyes. i feel it's a waste and like i can't keep up. I'm not after money. I prefer someone who can "wow" me in non-materialistic ways.

oh... maybe i should point out what kind of guy i'm looking for? someone who has a nice smile and can laugh. doesn't take themselves so seriously i can hear crickets chirp mid-sentence. and.... white. i know.... i'm superficial, but i find myself very attracted to white guys. someone who has a job and has some direction in his life obviously. i don't want a loser, and i know it when i see it. respect. I am very impressed by modern day chivalry..... not a lot of men know how to pull it off discreetly, and i'm watching you closely.

i do read the info on your profile. if nothing strikes, or if i don't see at least one similarity, i won't respond.

coffee (fine... smoothies) is always ideal as a first date because it gives you the opportunity to cut it short if there's no click. i wouldn't want you to feel obliged to finish a meal to hightail it out of there.
