I am an adventurous, caring, compassionate, neo-bohemian, responsible, intelligent lady. Plenty unusual interests, and by contrast,a bit on the quiet side..Oh yes, sometimes really silly

I do best with someone that is open minded, intelligent and fun-loving, either a creative type or someone more mainstream but still able to think outside the box. I have one child at home most times, so if you have 1 or 2 that is fine, but no children at home is ok too.
Chemistry is important in a relationship, but I think it is good communication, positive intentions and constancy that sustain it.
I have an open mind as to a friend's religion, ethnicity or profession, But, if you voted for Bush, I doubt our values will match. Emotional intelligence trumps intellectual, nonetheless, I prefer a man with at least 2 years of college.
If you send me an email that shows some thought, not just a 1 liner, and you have a photo posted, I promise to respond.
Ideally, exchange email 3-5 times, (not 20), see if there's mutual interest, then proceed to phone.
