I am a very easygoing person who definitely takes the time to enjoy the simple things in life. A sense of humor and intelligence are probably the two biggest traits that I'm looking for in someone. I love a good discussion/argument with someone that realizes we can have totally opposite opinions and still respect each other for theirs. Intelligence is important . I absolutely hate narrowmindedness, afterall it's a great big interesting world out there and it would be shame to miss most of it. I'm usually attracted to that person that takes the time to think of others and has a big heart. He should also be strong enough and capable of standing up for himself (doormats need not apply). I am definitely a cuddler so I hope that you are too. My biggest turn-offs are arrogance, meanness, and materialism. A quirky sense of humor, sarcasm that isn't mean spirited, a general sense of adventure and willingness to at least try new things, a generosity w/ long slow massages and backrubs

We need to start out as friends. Friendship, from my perspective, is probably the most important component in a relationship. I am looking for a Man who wants to be treated with respect and dignity. Mutual respect is a must! I am looking for someone who can love me as I am capable of loving them! They say opposites attract, I disagree. I feel that the most important things in a relationship are honesty, fidelity, friendship, and commonality. To me, honesty is critical. I do not like games - I have neither the time nor the emotional energy to waste. It's important to start as friends, sharing mutual likes/dislikes and this should grow. I want someone who is independent, but yet would like to be taken care of also; someone who will depend on me. I want someone who is intelligent, who has common sense and is able to make logical choices and decisions. I want to find someone who shares a similar background, morals and ethics. I want someone who wants to share every aspect of their LIFE
