Date someone special from Berkeley, United States. I'm an outgoing girl who loves trying new things, spending time with my dog, and meeting new people. Would love to find somebody who is ambitious, loves pets, and new adventure.
I figure everything happens for a reason, and moving out here has been a great move. I enjoy going out for the occasional drink, spending time with my friends, but also loves to spend the night in with good food and a good drink.
Life has been good to me, and I've been very lucky.

* (financially) responsible and non-materialistic
* low-maintenance
* clean/organized
* a sports fan--love NBA and MLB live games--GO GIANTS!
Education is important to me, and I am looking for a match who values knowledge and who can appreciate my academic drive and career goals in academia. IРІР‚в„ўm currently writing my dissertation, and it is a major plus if I can share and/or vent about this process with someone who can relate (even somewhat) to my experience. ItРІР‚в„ўs worth mentioning here that IРІР‚в„ўm not a super hardcore academic; I set aside plenty of time for getting out and having fun!
MY IDEAL MATCH:
You are educated and goal-driven and love what you do for a living. You are ambitious but not arrogant. You're diverse, open, and flexible, without an extreme personality—i.e., not a hardcore sports/workout guy, a health nut, crass talker, major partier, or an extreme introvert/extrovert. You value balance, variety, and class. You're considerate, giving, and humble.
Above all, it is very important to me to connect with someone who can maintain a stimulating conversation about anything and everything (science, history, psychology, philosophy, the economy, politics, current events, literature, (pop) culture, music, language, religions, the environment--you name it!), and who will challenge me to think critically about these and other topics. Since I study language (Spanish) and literature and teach it for a living, I hope to find someone who enjoys diversity, culture, languages, literature, art, travel abroad. Is this you?
Finally, do you tend to be clean and organized? (Psst: If so, you just scored big bonus points!) ;)
***My deal breakers on a date/in a relationship are: major differences in values or life goals, any drug use (or frequent overindulgent substance abuse of any kind), a lack of common sense, (financial) irresponsibility, unnecessary crudeness. I truly believe honesty, open-communication, and responsibility are three factors necessary for a healthy and respectful, serious relationship; and that is what I am looking for.
