I would characterize myself as authentic, positive, intelligent, warm, compassionate, affectionate, playful, sensual, adventurous, and spiritual. I love to challenge myself and I'm usually eager to try new things. I have a good sense of humor, laugh easily, and don't take myself too seriously. I'm passionate about my children (ages 15 and 18), family and friends, practicing and teaching yoga, living consciously, expressing my creativity, and exploring what is true and meaningful in life. I love the outdoors, especially the beach and the redwoods. I'm physically fit and enjoy participating in a variety of physical activities, including water sports, hiking, biking, and working out. Although I consider myself very responsible and dependable, I also have a bit of a wild streak . . . I enjoy stepping out-of-the-box. I don't let my independent nature interfere with my appreciation of chivalry. I believe that life's greatest lessons and opportunities for growth come from our biggest challenges. Spirituality is an important part of my life. I believe we are each unique expressions of god/consciousness/universal energy (whatever you want to call it) and I view spirituality as tapping into this energy. I do so regularly through yoga, meditation, being in nature, listening to music, and connecting intimately with others.

I'm looking for a man who has a positive outlook on life, a clever sense of humor, an adventurous spirit, an open heart, and a sensual nature. He knows that happiness is determined more by attitude than circumstances and demonstrates that we get out of life what we put into it. He is very intelligent but doesn't need to prove it. He treats me like a woman and still respects me as an equal. He is a bit of a free spirit, but also grounded and dependable. He is compassionate, sensitive, introspective, and a good listener. He expresses his feelings openly and trusts me enough to share his vulnerabilities. He is very affectionate, romantic, and sensual. He wants to create a truly intimate relationship where we continue to evolve together as best friends, lovers, and spiritual partners.

Anything that allows us to talk and get to know each other.
