Date men from United States / Colorado / Fort Morgan, 25 year old

Date single boy from Colorado, United States. I am an artist at heart. I love creating and expressing myself through art and enjoy exploring its' importance in our society. I have an art degree in graphic design and went on to get my teaching license in which I now teach at a school with both middle and high school students. It is exhilarating to be in the drivers seat for a young persons education and being able to help mold them into the people they want to become.
I am a shy person. I have always been the quiet listener on the sideline in the beginning but when I feel comfortable I become a different, more energetic and exciting person.
I am looking for someone that is really just a nice and caring person. Someone that I could connect with and know that they would bring the same type of empathy and compassion to the table as I would. She has to be confident in who she is and what she wants in life. I'm turned off by women who care only for themselves. I'd love to discuss topics with her even if we aren't on the same sides, in an intelligent way.
A great date for me would me cooking for her or going out to eat just so that we can talk and get to know each other. Followed by a gallery walk just hanging out watching a movie.
