First and foremost I want to say that my family, my belief in God and my friends are extremely important to me. I would definitely not be where I am today if it wasn't for these influences in my life. I think the key fundamental to any healthy/functioning relationship is COMMUNICATION. So please don't contact me if you can't communicate like a mature adult. Trust is also extremely important. I consider myself to be laid back, down to earth, and easy going. I feel that I am a well rounded person that can adapt to almost any type of environment/social setting. Having said that, I would much rather hang out with close friends, play pool, and enjoy quality/deep conversation vs. going bar hopping. That has never really been my thing. I like to go out every once in a while but would prefer a more quiet evening at the house. I have been coaching tennis for 9 years now and I absolutely love my job. I am able to meet new people on a regular basis and I get to play Dr. Phil from time to time. The way I see it, it worked out for the best because I studied psychology at GSU. I'm sure you personal trainers and hair stylists/cosmetologists out there can relate. I am currently trying to break into the real estate game and was blessed enough to purchase my first rental property this year. I would have to say two of my biggest passions are weight training and nutrition. I haven't completely closed off the idea of possibly doing some competitive bodybuilding. I am still toying with the idea. Most of my family (which is extremely small by the way,in number that is) and friends think that my day to day routine is pretty boring. I will admit I eat the same thing almost everyday but I cheat on the weekend though.My weaknesses are chocolate chip cookies and oreo cheese cake from the Cheese Cake Factory. I am slightly OCD but overall I feel like I have a good mix in both type A and B personality characteristics. I do not anger easily and I am one to let things soak in before I respond vs. being reactive. I am at a point in my life where I am trying to really put God first and I am trying to strengthen my relationship with Him. I have been burned in the past (which I'm sure most people have) but I am a firm believer that everything happens for a reason. The way I see it, the past is a reflection of who you are but it does not dictate your future.

I am looking for someone who is trustworthy, loyal, driven, family oriented, educated, and knows who they are. And please, NO GAMES! I am sooooo tired of people trying to play games for their own selfish reasons. For the most part I speak what's on my mind and according to some of my ladies that I teach I don't sugar coat very well. I am tactful in my approach but I am not going to beat around the bush. I have high standards for myself and I would expect the same from my partner. Everything else aside, I just want someone that is "real", which is apparently a lot to ask for these days. An ideal first date for me would be something low key where we could really talk and get to know one another. Just a little random side note; I like to shop and the mall is my friend. I have a thing for shoes. So yes you could probably open a Finish Line up at my house.
