I enjoy reading, going to the movies, talking. If I had more time and no bills =)... I'd love to take a class on a foreign language, go horseback riding, take dance lessons, take piano and voice lessons, travel, and experience hobbies I haven't. I believe in taking things slowly and being friends first. I believe in hard work. I want to have a nice house with nice things in it some day and I'm not afraid to work hard to get it. I want someone who is willing to work hard also. I have a good education, great career and want a partner. I don't need to be supported and I don't want to support anyone either. I'm a Christian. I'm not judgemental but I do want someone who has the same basic beliefs as I do so we won't butt heads. I drink socially, but do not want someone who drinks every day or every weekend. Someone who doesn't drink at all is cool with me, if they prefer a girl that doesn't drink I don't have to. Prefer a non-smoker and someone who is fit and takes care of themselves. I'm independent. I would like someone who enjoys being with me, but doesn't want my attention 24/7. I like to go out to concerts and with my friends occasionally. I don't want a bar fly or a home body. I want someone who is laid back and can have fun doing any and everything. I want someone honest and trustworthy. I think my God-given talent is my ablility to care deeply for others and want to help them. I think that is what makes me a good therapist. I love my job and need someone who is willing to listen when I want to discuss my day, and someone who wants to discuss his day with me as well. I think physical chemistry is important. I also believe physical intimacy is an important part of a relationship. I am not a type of woman to hold sex over a man's head to get what I want. I don't manipulate people or pretend I'm happy when I'm not or pretend to be upset when I'm not. I'm easy to read and always willing to discuss things calmly.
I've just read over everything I've written and I sound kind of demanding haha. I'm not demanding, but I do know what I want. I am very good at compromise and think I is one of the most, if not the most important thing in a relationship.

I always think dinner is great for a first date. Being able to have a conversation and get to know someone is a great way to see if you are compatiable. I'm easy going so if the guy had another idea for a first date it'd be cool with me.
