Date women from United States / Alabama / Lafayette, 30 year old

Date someone special from Lafayette, United States. I was born in Tahoe and never left California. I love to visit new places, but nothing compares to California. I'm a genuine, passionate person that has strong family values and looking for the same. I'm independent and very determined- I set goals for myself and always achieve the ones I feel strongly about. IРІР‚в„ўm outgoing and fun with an adventurous and curious nature so IРІР‚в„ўm pretty much up for anything if IРІР‚в„ўm with people I enjoy- whether it involves a quite night with a movie or a wild night on the town.
I live an active lifestyle and I enjoy being outdoors. I enjoy sports, both playing and watching. I Went to the US open at the Olympic Club this year (motivated me to work on my swing) and went to my first NBA game last year (I'd rather watch than play...white girls can't jump) I love exploring somewhere I have never been. So far this year I have been to the North Shore of Oahu with some friends and just returned from Vegas. IРІР‚в„ўm planning on visiting some friends in Colorado and San Diego within the next few months.
I tend to be attracted to men who:
Can be comfortable in jeans at a dive bar and a suit to a special event
Enjoys Sports (although I think this refers to all men)
Open to new experiences and learning
Handsome, but not cocky
Funny (can laugh at any situation)
Lives a balanced life and easygoing
"I apologize to you if I don't seem real eager to jump into a forced awkward intimate situation that people like to call dating. I don't like the feeling. You're sitting there, you're wondering do I have food on my face, am I eating, am I talking too much, are they talking enough, am I interested I'm not really interested, should I play like I'm interested but I'm not that interested but I think she might be interested but do I want to be interested but now she's not interested? So all of the sudden I'm getting, I'm starting to get interested... And when am I supposed to kiss her? Do I have to wait for the door cause then it's awkward, it's like well goodnight. Do you do like that a$$-out hug? Where you like, you hug each other like this and your ass sticks out cause you're trying not to get too close or do you just go right in and kiss them on the lips or don't kiss them at all? It's very difficult trying to read the situation. And all the while you're just really wondering are we gonna get hopped up enough to make some bad decisions?"

Let the online dating begin...
I'm not in a rush. I'm all about keeping things simple. If I can find a good friend first so we ease into those butterflies and find ourselves irresistible to each other, and wake up one day to discover we're in a relationship...that would be truly fabulous!
The most important thing to me is chemistry so meeting and seeing what might be there is number one.
