You could say I'm on a journey to find someone also on a journey. Hopefully we'll be interested in each others' travels! I'm an eclectic, animated, expressive woman with a varied past and an open-ended future. I'm interested in meeting someone who is confident and both a listener and a talker, someone who knows that it's not about being right, it's about being open and non-judgmental, asking opinions, listening to feedback, providing input and debriefing, learning and growing... all the good, interactive stuff. You're clean, manicured(short nails), thoughtful, considerate, reliable, interested in at least pretending to dance, loves music (rock, blues, soul-with harmony, big band, African music, "At Last", "The Lion Sleeps Tonight", "Duke of Earl", "Moondance"), likes most foods, errs on the side of healthier eating yet can be corrupted at times around the right dessert...has some baggage and is ok to talk about it... If you're powerful, great. If you're accomplished, terrific. If you are looking for someone with a sense of humour, a sharp wit, an intriguing intellect and an almost naive curiosity about life, this is the place! And if not, thanks for visiting... next?

A generic coffee is safe. Dinner and dancing is more risky. So it depends on the chemistry leading up to the encounter. Brunch is nice because it affords the opportunity to extend the meeting into the rest of the day, or end gracefully if needed. Lots of comfortable conversation and an equal dose of giving and getting should set the wheels in motion.
