I am probably not a real great judge of what characteristics my perfect match would possess...I think if I did I wouldn't be here, right? I do know what I find attractive and that includes a great smile, the ability to laugh at nonsense and an overall passion for life (a nice butt and a tattoo or two wouldn't hurt either). I spend the bulk of the time either at work or with my georgeous two year old daughter and I feel I need to strike a better balance in order to be truly happy - all work and no play...can't be good for anyone.
I am goofy, loyal, talkative, romantic, caring, generous and I enjoy being affectionate very much. I enjoy sports and watching sports more than your average girl. I begrudgingly drag my larger-than-it-should-be butt out of bed to serve time on my eliptical 4 or 5 mornings a week, but would prefer to get outdoors and engage in activities that don't feel so much like exercise. I am a total foodie...I love great food and fine wine and god forbid I miss a good strong cup of coffee in the morning. I come from a tight knit Italian family and somehow we all ended up settling in the Temecula/Murrieta area over the past few years so that's nice for me. My father who recently passed was the best dude EVER and was the reason that i have such high expectations for the men in my life....guess it's true that we look for someone like Dad.
I think more than anything else I am looking for someone who is easy (not that kind of easy!) but just easy to be friends with and easy to be around. I am over relationships being so much work! I think when it's right, it's easy.
