I am a very happy, healthy, passionate and playful woman. I am looking for a companion who is physically, emotionally,"fiscally" fit and gainfully employed. He must be emotionally available and interested in an intimate, loving relationship. A good sense of humor (make me laugh in an unorthodox manner and you're in), adventure, and intelligence are extremely important to me. If asked what I would prefer most, it would be someone who is not afraid to be himself and can take charge when it's time to step up to the plate. With that said, I am especially fond of a man who actually takes the initiative and make plans for our night out together. I admire strength, conviction, and loyalty in a man. A man without a spine need not apply. He will be a good communicator and take the time to listen and contribute equally. Spare me, please, if all that you can talk about is yourself. The man that I am interested in should be emotionally secure and wonder what's ahead of him verses look back and dwell on the past. That said, I'm secure in who I am and expect him to be confident and real. I know how to communicate well with men and remain focused on their needs/desires and dreams. I believe that with every interaction, from breakfast to an afternoon walk, dinner, and a glass of wine at night all contribute to the equation when it comes to romance. I do not think that this starts and ends just in the bedroom. And, although I hate to sound superficial, I will only respond to profiles with a several recent pix....full length pix, too ....after all, fair is fair!!

An awesome first date for me would most likely be outdoors and at a location where there is a beautiful view and the sun is shining. Golfing together is a definite "turn on" for me. The most important thing is that no matter where we are the company is to be enjoyed by both.
