I'd like to meet:
I'm always interested in making new friends, but if you are looking to get to know me on another level, here's some things to consider..."THE ONE"...
He is sexy – yes – and we have amazing physical chemistry together, but he's humble as well. He doesn't look around to see how many women are staring him down when we are out together. He likes to sleep touching me, even it is with just with the tip of his little finger. He conveys self-respect all the time, as well as respecting me through his actions. He would never see it necessary for me to get involved in all that; he would handle other women hitting on him in a way that would honor me even when I'm not around. He feels flattered when other men check me out when we are in public, knowing that I would never make him feel unimportant or small. He loves to have me on his arm, but does not feel it necessary for us to be the centre of attention. He attracts people to him via a quiet strength versus a bold, loud personality. People listen to him because he is wise. He loves me because of my intelligence and my good spirit, but also lets me know he thinks I'm sexy, not through his words, but by how he acts towards me. He asks me lots of questions about myself, and loves to talk to me about his views on the world; more importantly, he has a decided viewpoint, even if it is not parallel with mine. He thinks about the world in atypical ways, and doesn't necessarily fall into the ideas that have been created for him as "correct" or "accepted". He presents himself to the world with class, but knows that behind closed doors with me, it's "on".He has exemplary manners, and an amazing set of values. He ALWAYS keeps his word to people. The agreements we make in our relationship, no matter how small, are gold to him. He would never deceive anyone in his life; he treats everyone with courtesy, whether they are the sales clerk checking our groceries, or a CEO.He is passionate about what he does for a living, no matter what it is. If he is a ditch digger, he works his butt off to be the best ditch digger out there, with the best ditch digging work ethic. He is interested in my business, and we mutually support one another in order to do great things. We are the consummate power couple, not because of "who" we are, but because of the ways we contribute to the world.He has lived a lot, dated a lot, done some stuff, good and bad…taken some risks, and most importantly, learned from his mistakes. He doesn't care about the dollar - his bottom line regarding money is that it allows him the freedom to do the things he wants to do. His idea of a good time would be curling up on the couch for a DVD, or to watch the fight or the game – with me in his arms. He's my homie…my best friend in every sense. He is creative in the ways he lets me know that I am continuously special to him.

My daugther Jalen - my indigo child...she makes me laugh out loud at least 10 times a day. I am so honored to be a part of creating such a beautiful heart and caring spirit. Everything I do is to allow her to feel cherished and to aid her in becoming a woman who represents herself with class, purpose, grace, and a sense of self...
