I am a very loyal, honest, confident, unselfish, energetic and often entertaining! I am patient and kind and very caring of those dear to me. I enjoy a healthy style of living which includes working out and eating healthy. I am just as comfortable in a pair of old jeans working around the house or garden as I am in a formal dress attending a ballet or play. I have much inner strength and a confident personality, which shows in my passion for life and relationships. My friends describe me as just enough sweetness to even out the feistiness!

I am searching for someone who complements me in personality, goals, attitude, and abilities. I value honesty, loyalty, ability to connect with others and establish long-term relationships, the motivation to succeed in your passion, sensual indulgences, and intelligent thought process. I enjoy a variety of outdoor activities - hiking, biking, fishing, boating, swimming, horseback riding, walking, canoeing/kayaking, and camping. I also enjoy reading, attending live concerts in small venues, entertaining at home with someone special, the company of family and friends, and learning new skills and trying new things. I have a very positive attitude and try to make the best of whatever crosses my path. I am independent and self-sufficient, yet supportive and appreciative of a loving relationship. I am looking for someone who has internal strength and patience, who is disciplined and who can be serious when necessary but also have a good sense of humor and be able to laugh along with me. I prefer someone who has similar interests, but will also have a few of his own and is comfortable doing things independently as well as together.

I prefer to meet for lunch, an outdoor activity, a cup of coffee or glass of wine, someplace that is a comfortable location for us both. I do not prefer long-term email conversations, but prefer to meet in person as I feel that is much truer method of introduction.
