I feel fitness and health are extremely important. I love the outdoors and have to admit that I am a very early morning person. I love to see the city wake up before the birds. Only those that are early morning people will understand what I am trying to say. I rollerblade and bike ride. I love to laugh and have been told I smile all the time. I have to admit that I will not date anyone that smokes. I want the person I meet to be able to talk and communicate well. Nothing turns me off more is too much silence during the "get to know you period". However, there can be total communication during silence also. Intimacy is a wonderful way of communication.I am healthy and very easy going. I share my feelings freely. I am romantic, intelligent, very caring, sensual,extremely truthworthy, fun and loyal. I miss not having that special man in my life whom I can spoil and make him my king. Every man deserves to be treated as such. I like to dress up and have to for work but you will probably find me in shorts and a tank top on weeknights and weekends. I guess I am saying, communication is high on my list as is no game playing. I never expect more than I can give.

In my mind, first dates are pretty much not the first initial meeting date. We have met and now we are having our "first date". It could be a trip to the Pike Place Market to explore and pick up dinner makings. We would then come back home and make this fantastic dinner together and possibly end with a walk around Greenlake. Or it could be a bike ride with a backpack picnic lunch. There could always be a ferry boat ride, too. So much to do from kite flying to rollerblading to a row boat on Lake Washington. As long as there is communication, laughter and respect, it can only be a success and wanting that "second date".
