I am a single teacher and teach in an inner-city school and love it. I love my career as a teacher but I am also an artist and leader of a local arts organization. I love music and collect vintage vinyl. My life has taken some twists and turns and I am now looking for a sweet, no-drama girl who has similar interests. I am not just looking for sex . I want someone who I can talk to. I would prefer a person who can appreciate culture, such as art galleries, museums and the theatre, but at the same time like to see a live local band in a night club. I do not mind if you have kids or have been married, but it would be nice if you have a life outside of your kids -- a career, a social life, and your own interests. I don't have a certain type, other than I prefer someone who is healthy and in good physical shape. I've dated blondes, brunettes, and red-heads, tall and short, different ethinicities ---- all of that doesn't matter to me as much as the person within. Are you a caring woman with little baggage? I don't play games and I'm not a player, and I don't want a woman who treats people that way, either.

I am fun, passionate, easy to get along with, creative, sensitive, understanding, a good communicator, patient, considerate, with a very slow temper and a great sense of humor. Can you appreciate that?

A First Friday gallery hop would be a good outing for a first date, I think. Music, food, fun, and an evening walk. Dinner and a movie can get boring. I'd rather roll up our sleeves and cook a fabulous meal together, enjoy what we've created with some candles and nice music, then Both handle the dishes...Maybe sing a few songs together while I play guitar. Hmmm.... So many possibilities.
