I am a very optimistic and happy go lucky person. I'm a person who knows that happiness comes from within and not from someone else so I am looking to meet someone that can share in my happiness in life and not someone to make me happy. I am looking for a person who loves life, who can see the good in all things that happen, can look at any situation that seems negative and say that when a door closes a window opens, that every time something happens in our lives that challenges us, it is not a tragedy but an opportunity to go in a new direction. Someone that understands a relationship needs to be love given unconditionally, that honesty and trust are core values of any relationship and that to last, communicating with each other is a must. I am looking to develop a relationship with someone and see where it goes, the best relationship are the ones that are best friends and lovers so there need to be a deep connection and chemistry for that to happen.
I tend to be a bit sarcastic and witty and joke around a lot but it is all in fun, and laughter is great medicine. So you have to be able to laugh and take a joke and not be so serious all the time. I enjoy cooking, baking, painting, drawing, biking, fishing, hiking, skiing, baseball (Go White Sox!), traveling with friends and family, learning new things. I am adventurous and am the type of girl that likes to get dressed up and go out on the town but I also bait my own fishing hook so dad raised me right (need some work in hook removal though). So if you like what you read drop me a line and we'll go from there. Also, because I have had some interesting experiences once I have given my number on more than one occasion I now feel the need to add this to my profile...I am looking to date not for an activity partner/intimate encounter so if you are a man that believes sending a picture text of a pornagraphic nature after exchanging numbers or talking on the phone with me a few times is acceptable move on, that is disrespectful, I am a lady and not.a hooker or a call girl, and I don't care to start off that way so please don't contact me and please don't waste my time. I am tired of wasting my time w/those type of men and yes it has happened more times than I would have thought on a sight that is meant to meet people for dating.

Coffee and talking is always a good first encounter and a way to see if we can connect and want to spend more time with one another. It is my thought that you can tell after briefly meeting someone and having a short discussion with them if you want to take it to the next level and get to know each other better. So coffee is a great way to start to connect and go from there.
