Turn Ons: Intelligence, humour, and a mischevious grin.
Turn Offs: Arrogance, criticism, and deception.

I love my job as an elementary school teacher, hanging out with kids every day keeps me young. I don't have any children of my own but would very much like to have a family, either my own children, step-children, adoption or some combination thereof.

I love to laugh (often at myself) and I am pretty good at putting others at ease. I can actually be quite shy sometimes but I can also be very gregarious when I am feeling comfortable.

I am looking for someone who makes me laugh, challenges my thinking, encourages my dreams, makes me feel like the sexiest woman he's ever met, is happy in his own life but wants to share it, and will cherish me.

I love hanging out in one on one situations where we can talk and maybe have something engaging to talk about - art, movies, or anything unusual. I prefer a first date with someone unknown to be casual like a coffee/tea/whatever as I find chemistry to be very important to me and also something that is sparked immediately, or not at all. I also prefer to meet people in person early on in online dating.
