I am pretty easy going and enjoy the simple things in life. Time with my family is very important; we get together often, and their opinion is important to me so having them on your side is a huge plus!!! I am a beach bum, every chance I can get I am on the beach soaking up the sun with a good book and preferably a Margarita. I have been in the food and beverage industry for over 20 years and have a passion for great food and wine. I love to cook and the kitchen is the heart of my home. I am somewhat adventurous -- you only live once! -- But I do have my limits; jumping out of a plane is definitely not going to happen. I want someone who can give me the attention I need but not smother me; someone that not only shares some of the same interests as I do but someone that brings something new to the table. Someone who I can call a friend! I am looking for that spark --- I want/need to feel those "butterflies" I want to feel that raw intense passion and desire for someone and them for me. I don't think that’s asking too much -- maybe I am wrong, but I sure think its worth holding out for. I am also a bit old school when it comes to dating - I want to be pursued, not stalked.
I am an independent woman -- I will not "check-in" nor do I expect that of anyone in my life. I enjoy going to dinner and I will pick up the bill too. I don’t have that “you owe me” mentality and really hate the women and yes - you men that feel that way – get over it! Do something because you want too not because you are expecting to get something out of it.
I am looking for a man that is, handsome, quick-witted, strong (big guns-lol), passionate, intelligent, ambitious, down to earth, respectful, funny, financially secure, gorgeous in his boxer briefs and cowboy boots --- sorry drifted for a moment. Has a good realationship w/ his family and friends, someone that is willing to give a helping hand, someone that honestly cares about doing the right thing. Some might say this is a list of demands -- just preferences!!!!
