Fresh from Paris!
Warm hearted woman seeking that special man who will be my best friend, long term partner (open to marriage) that is the final soulmate in life. Having known the feeling of love in relationships past, it is not something I want to live without. I am very compassionate about animals (you must be also), our environment, those who are unfortunate. It is important that the man I seek loves animals and has awareness in these areas. It also would be a good match if he were very visual, loved movies, an interest in the arts as I am an artist myself. I recently moved here from NYC, where I lived for 24 years. I actually had to learn how to drive again (that's how Manhattan I was). I keep in shape swimming 30 to 40 laps a day (I think I am addicted to swimming) but I love the feeling of being in shape and on the lean side of life. Rather than put it all out here, why not write me if you are interested in knowing more...I mean I could write a novel here. By the way, I have included pictures of my two little Burmese cats who share my life. They are eager to share their love with someone special too.

First dates are a bit crazy, but a place that is conducive for talking/listening is always the best. If we like each other than also planning on doing something together is great. I find I learn a lot about someone by sharing in something like strolling through a museum, anything to share is great (I love to discover new things to do here), meeting for a glass of wine can take the edge off. Coffee dates can feel like just a pit stop on the errand list to me, so I avoid those. I think we get the best out of people when they can relax and share and it doesn't seem like an interview.
