I'm interested in meeting a special woman with a unique criteria set:
I enjoy a woman who is kind,enjoys laughing,doesn't take herself too seriously.she's assertive but not aggressive,can easily be the lady or the tramp.she's loyal to herself,her friends,family,and lover.she enjoys her ------ity,-------ity,----ful side,but doesn't have the need to flaunt.she enjoys our language,the subtle nuance of words,and is articulate.she has a passion in her,but doesn't wear it on her sleeve.she can dress up or dress down,feel comfortable barefooted or in heels.she is NOT what is commonly referred to as,"high maintenance".this is not to say that she doesn't have a sense of style, class and dignity..she has,but it's her own,and it's within her;she's no sycophant.she should love animals.she enjoys using her athleticism as well as her intellect; and is not afraid of being challenged in either area.she has a rapier wit, but is playful,not malicious, with it.
i love going to the gym, doing long rides on my road bike,swimming; love many forms of music,particularly blues and jazz.i sculpt for a hobby,working in stone & wood, have 2 dogs & a cat, love to cook, for either one special person or a group,& think it's fun cooking with someone.love having the top down on my car(& it is if it's not raining,regardless of the temperature. love seeing the sky as i drive,feeling the wind through my hair[what is left of it]),& driving, driving,..through unknown neighborhoods,or into the mountains..an unknown turn in the road is always calling out to me,& i love how the steering wheel feels when it abruptly turns to explore.i like long, winding conversations that jump from one topic to another,circumlinear in nature rather than linear..one subject serving as a jump off point to another;stream-of-thought conversations engage and excite me,as do,at times, sprightly and playful banter sessions,engaging in mental fencing with a partner.age of someone is less important than how
