So here I am- a year post-divorce...starting over and rebuilding life as I know it. The job I do now is crap- my goals are set high and I will self-employed again in the near future- I'm a go getter and make things happen ;) Before I got married I had a successful massage practice on the island of Oahu for 5 years, and was living the dream. After an unfortunate turn of events which I'm not going to get into...I find myself here....and quite optimistic about what the future has in store for this next chapter of my life.

The type of man that interests me is a 'Man's man'...he has plenty of friends and enjoys spending time with them. I've always had more guy friends that girls...I just have never really gotten along with women all that well besides a select few....they're just too dramatic! I'm not the kind of chick that pouts if you want to have a guys night out- usually I'm stoked because that means I get to draw a bubble bath and have a pedicure/facial night for myself! In my spare time you'll find me doing anything active and outdoors...I have a 4 month old boxer puppy who is super active too and I love to get her out to exert her puppy energy! I'm usually at a dog park or exploring nearby neighborhoods & parks/trails. I also love going to thrift stores & garage sales for the hell of it- you never know what kind of cool crap you might come across. I love all art, photography, and cooking (I consider myself a flavor artist) food is my favorite medium. I grew up riding horses and am not afraid to get dirty- love camping, and smelling thick of bonfire. I clean up well and enjoy a good night out on the town as well...I guess you could say I'm versatile and down for whatever, whenever.

I believe in old fashioned values, and when committed honor my man as if he is the king of the world. I love hard, true, and unconditional...once you are my friend I'll love you that way forever...I trust fully until you give me reason not to. I avoid confrontation at all costs, like to look at the big picture, and pick and choose my battles....I think I'm a pretty effin rad chick ;)

I'm not in any rush to meet someone...please don't send me your phone number and don't ask for mine- I don't give it to strangers so if you really are interested be patient and take the time to get to know me online first. As I read that over it sounds pretty ****y but that isn't my intention, promise ;) I'm trying to learn from my past mistakes- I've rushed into relationships- dove in head first and while exciting, it always ends up backfiring. I truly want to take my time and be friends with whomever my partner will be....I think after being married and having the prospect of 'forever' at hand, your perspective changes big time. I don't want to waste anyones time and smiliarly I hope they won't mine....if you don't love and accept someone 100% as is, then you shouldn't be with them. I'm seeking my best friend, confidant, and life partner....I know that sounds big and scary but this is why I'm in no rush....really just looking for friends right now and if something should blossom of it later down the road then cool.

I don't care for a lot of pressure on a first date- something low key like lunch/ coffee or walk around greenlake works for me.
