I am genuine to a fault at times. I am a down to earth, compassionate, caring, fun loving and affectionate woman. I laugh easily, enjoy life, care about shared values, believe in respectful and direct communication, true acceptance and in appreciating others. I am truly hoping to find a life companion. I am looking for a special and unique intimate connection with someone. Intimacy and love is mental, emotional, spiritual and physical to me. I am holding out for the real thing. Someone I want to grow old with, do the work of marriage with and enjoy the benefits of loving each other unconditionally.
