Hi guys! It comes down to chemistry, but I guess this is the essay portion of the test. I'm well rounded, comfortable mixing with all kinds of people and doing a variety of things - going to a rock concert, sporting event, plays, comedy shows, non-profit benefits, just about most social situations. I love to laugh, try not to take myself or life too seriously, and am in constant pursuit of self-improvement and amusement. I'm traditional and non-traditional. Stable and high-spirited. Conservative and liberal. Love antiques and modern styles. Watch the Simpsons and appreciate fine art. A career woman who loves to take care of people I love. I'm a big family and "roots" person who is happy being an aunt, sister, and "mom" to a cat, with no ticking clock to have my own kids.

I'm "young" for my age - vigorous and high energy - and my crowd of friends tends to be the same age or younger.

So... the best guy for me is someone who has seen a lot, knows who he is, loves to do a variety of things, mixes well with different types of people, has an open mind, isn't jealous or controlling, has a strong sex drive, can "feel" as well as "think," doesn't live life on the surface, is FUNNY and FUN!!!, smart as hell, is honest and his word - says what he means and means what he says, non-dramatic, lives life full on - loves variety and experimentation, living from the gut, rolling with it. I have no time for liars, haters or drama queens. Ideal if you love food, wine, poker, are a democrat, spiritual, or an entrepreneur.

At the end of the day, I'm an easy person to be around in my own intense, strong way - I'm not jealous or possessive, I'm not rigid or frigid, I'm not needy or greedy. I'm a generally happy, positive, well adjusted woman, who is well-loved by friends and family, and is living pretty large when you come down to it. :-) I've had good luck with men, enjoy their company, and understand them. The men in my life aren't "needed" as much as they are "chosen."

I'm into meeting new people and feel like many of us are much better (and more attractive) in person where our energy and charisma can come out, than on paper. How else can chemistry be measured but in person? So it would be great to meet for a drink or coffee to check things out if you're interested rather than spend a bunch of time emailing or talking on the phone.
