I am shy, a bit backwards when matched with new people. Once I have a sense of their personality, I become more comfortable and open up.
I am a very caring and sensitive person. I take my friendships and acquaintances to heart.
Some people find me funny. I think my sense of humor is a bit sarcastic, not offensive, but smart-witted. I get that from my mother.
I have been drawing since I was young. My talent dictated my career path. If I ever get a free moment to do something for myself, I kick back and draw.
I have a 3 year old Shihtzu that requires as much attention as a toddler. I enjoy taking him on walks around the neighborhood and to the local parks.
I enjoy spending time with my sisters and friends. With everyone's hectic schedules, it is sometimes difficult to get together.
I have a great job. I work with very good people. I am happy with that aspect of my life.
At this moment, I am looking for a mate to start the next chapter of my life. I would like to find someone that would share my interest as well as spark new ones. I would like that same person to raise a family and tackle that next step in life together.
My partner must be trusting, truthful, have strong family values and a good work ethic . . . all ingredients for a working, healthy relationship. I am looking for someone that is fun and will teach me new things. And equally important, treat me with respect.

The best first dates have been those that took place in a more quiet, intimate setting . . . coffee house, park or stroll through a quaint little town outside the city. Talking, joking and reading one another's body language are key.
