Thanks for stopping by. Anyone that knows me would say I am down to earth, with a realist perspective. I enjoy engaging in good conversation with intelligent people and being an extrovert is but one component in the content of my character. I don't appreciate being asked: "What do you do?" in your first contact with me. I mean really? Is that what you are basing compatibility on? Besides what I do is right here on my profile and should be sufficient for now. Be secure in the knowledge that I will ask no more of you, other than what I'm prepared to give to you. I have learned you have to make time for the little things and take pleasure in the simple things. I will wait for a partner who possesses the qualities empathy, intelligence and compasion and will not settle less.

If she doesn't appear that's cool 'cause I can be with myself. See I'm not a bad woman to be with. I like myself, and know my worth.

For all intents and purposes, I am the master of my fate and as a result place high value on personal responsibility (Barring catastrophic circumstances that is.)
For example: Do you know what motivates you to do the things that you do? More importantly: Do you take personal responsibility for the things that you do?
I have a tender sentimental side that I show to people who are very close to me. People that know me appreciate that I talk to them straight and tell them exactly what is on my mind, I say what I mean and mean what I say. Therefore if you understand what I say then there's no reason to ask me if I: “Really mean it?” ;oÞ Life is WAY Too Short to spend time being redundant, trying to convince others of my good intentions.

I enjoy independent film, in addition to my newest phase which is Bollywood (Fav Film: Devdas), although I admit I'd be hard pressed to sit through a Bollywood film that didn't feature actresses Aishwarya Rai or Lisa Ray or "Raniray" as you can tell from my featured artistic examples.

In my free time I'm an artist, webmaster and amateur videographer. I enjoy international cuisine such as: Indian, Indonesian, Thai, Japanese, Greek, Italian, Ethiopian.
A non-drinker and non-smoker, I am also a "sometimes" vegetarian (meaning that I don't buy meat to cook at home but will indulge in a burger on occasion).
At times, I see myself as a challenger, feeling most alive when I achieve what others think I cannot. I am honest and expect the same in return. I go the extra mile for those I truly care about. The most important things in life are not things. I am committed to living a peaceful life. I have been around the block a, but it is a lot more fun with someone by my side who gets me.
I hope to find someone that is intelliigent, communicative, fun loving, spontaneous, and full of life. I admire people who are empathetic, compassionate, open-minded. A great sense of humor is very important to me because I love to laugh, but I am not the silly one 24/7 as I possess a pensive and deeply reflective side and crave intellectual stimulation. I seek that "Click" people get via shared norms, values, interests and physical attraction and I've changed my height resitrictions as I am missing out on meeting some wonderful women because they are under 5'7" So 5'5" or taller. I am around 5'10" myself.
I am considered attractive by others: quadripeds, non human bi-peds as well as women and men .

The bottom line… Life is measured by the moments that take our breath away.

I prefer to take a laid back approach and "Go With The Flow" therefore we can both decide what would be mutually fulfilling whether it be coffee or tea, a mid afternoon meal or a museum.
