Hi...I'm here to meet friends and maybe someone special. I'm not into hook ups or one night stands. So if you just want to jump in the sack, I'm a thousand miles from interested in anything like that. I'm not the kind of lady to rush into anything, In some ways I'm a typical lady. I can be stubborn and opinionated but I'm always willing to listen to other viewpoints. I consider myself to be an intelligent woman. I have a good job that requires me to use my head every day. I would say I'm often misunderstood. Sometimes I come off as critical. I don't intend to, but I think its part of my nature. People that really know and understand me, get it, and let it pass. It's actually a flaw I'm conscious of and I'm constantly working on it. The part of me that's not so typical is I'm a passionate lady. I think with both my brain and my heart at the same time. I speak when I think sometimes and it's gotten me into trouble in the past. I think that part of my failure in relationships is I tend to choose men who aren't as open and passionate as I am. I think jumping straight from, " I like you" to " lets be in a relationship" has always been the seed of failure in that department. I know " friends first " is a bit cliche but in my case, I really think its important. Besides, sometimes jumping in too quickly can make you loose a really awesome friend. 9046375725
