I'm a fun and adventurous person who loves to travel. I'm interested in meeting someone who's willing to put forth a serious effort in getting to know me. Your preference should be a thick, assertive woman, because I'm proud to be one. I'm an Educator, and I love my job and its perks (lots of time off). I feel I'm making a difference in the world by mentoring and empowering children, and that gives me great satisfaction. Live theater once a month has been a part of my life for years. I think in my past life I was an actress, LOL. I love to watch drama onstage or in a movie, but have none in my real life. I'm an awkward bowler, but it's just so much fun that I can't stop even though I'm not that good at it. My friends say I'm assertive and very perceptive, and can talk to anyone. I lead a busy life, and make time for what's important to me. I'm a fan of most kinds of music, but can only sleep to classical, and have a serious passion for the Isley slow jams. I'm not afraid to do what most people would consider risky: I've helicoptered in a pitch-black lightening storm to the bottom of the Grand Canyon. I'm looking forward to sky-diving, parasailing and hot air ballooning very soon. Maybe you'll join me? I'm a sensual, caring, and monogamous woman. I'm crazy about children and dogs, love my life and am laughingly enjoying it. The only thing missing is my soulmate.

First dates should generally involve a public place where we can TALK. That'll determine if a second date is on the horizon. I'm not jaded, bitter or terrified from previous relationships, so it won't work if you are. Life is short---move on. My happiness and the happiness of those I care about is important to me. So, the first date determines if we're compatible and ultimately should make us both yearn for the next, right?
