I'm an open minded female who loves to laugh and have fun. I am very honest and open with people. I don't play games, life is too short. I value people, friendships and family. I enjoy intelligent conversation, other peoples' opinions, social interaction and private time with someone special. I like to keep busy and usually have several things going on at the same time. I am a giving, loving female but value my independence. I like doing things for myself but love it when a gentleman opens doors, helps with my coat...romance. I am emotional and am not afraid to show or discuss my feelings. I want to meet a man that is sure of himself. A man who is aware, outgoing, attentive, funny, not too serious, very social and friendly, independent, assertive, has an opinion and is decisive. Someone with the same likes and interests or can relate. I like a man that can be fun and dorky and at the same time can sit and talk about anything and everything. Someone who can listen and is gentle and honest; and has a good balance of being funny and being real. A man who knows how to treat and respect people.
