As I indicated, I want to be in a committed relationship so if that's not what you want, please do not respond to my profile. Also, please do not respond if you smoke. I live in the city and think Chicago is great and want to be with someone who enjoys what this town has to offer. I like to "do things" and want to share activities with a man that sometime I suggest and sometimes he suggests. I enjoy all kinds of performing arts such as music, dance, theater, and movies. I love nature, enjoy boat rides and want to do more biking this summer. I also enjoy watching sporting events. My hobbies include dancing and reading and I exercise regularly and eat healthy. I am definitely open to new experiences and look forward to them. I enjoy the simple things in life and often feel like these are the most special times to share. I love to laugh and want to be with someone with a good sense of humor. I have a positive outlook on life and am grateful for all I have and would like my partner to feel the same. I hope to be with some with whom I can have stimulating conversations. I am easy going and fun loving and I look forward to my adventures on Plenty of Fish!

I would like my first date to include dinner and some type of activity, such as going to a performing arts or sporting event. The possibilities for an activity are many. This date would allow enough time for conversation and an opportunity for us to share an activity together. Please don't confuse a first date with a first meeting. A first meeting might be a conversation at a coffee shop.
