I am a very easy going and laid back person- I know how to go out and have a fun time but I also know how to focus and work hard when it is necessary. I feel like I have a pretty good balance in my life and I am happy at where I am. I have a great full time job, take care of myself and am financially independent at 23- I think that shows alot about the person I am and the drive that I have in life. I would also like to find someone that takes care of themselves, has their head on straight and has direction in life. But of course- you have to be able to let loose and have fun every once in a while! I have a lot of self respect for myself and know that I am a good catch. I am proud of the person I am and the life that I live- I want someone that also has substance and appreciates me for the person that I am. Our world is way too critical and superficial- I know that I have a great heart and a lot to offer- so I am holding out till the right one comes along... there's got to be a nice guy out there somewhere! hah

For a first date, I usually prefer to grab a drink and talk. It gives you a chance to get to know eachother and having a drink definitely helps take a little bit of the edge off! hah.
