A few things I appreciate:

good manners
being up front
honesty
fresh air
cleanliness
family values
big hugs
soft kisses
sarcastic, silly, random humor


A few things I don't appreciate:

PORNOGRAPHY
incessant profanity (though sometimes I still have this problem myself.. lol)
ebonics
bitterness
holding grudges
constant whining
dishonesty
cheating / infidelity
drug users / tobacco users
alcoholics (unless in recovery)


I'm a walking contradiction. I find humor in almost everything, and laugh all the time. I try to stay positive and stay away from those people who are out to bring others down. I love very strongly and am loyal to my loved ones. I grew up as a tomboy but I am sensitive. I don't suffer for fashion, but always try to look my best. I prefer a man to be a gentleman even when he's joking around: healthy people don't like to be criticized with names, even if you're kidding. While my sense of humor can be rather twisted at times, I still appreciate being respected.


I'm a very caring person and try to share in everything I do and have. I love to spend time with someone special whenever possible, but it's nice to have alone time, too. Being overly flirtatious with a woman like me will not get you any points.
