I am chivalrous yet not controlling, a romantic, spontaneous and someone you would be happy to introduce to your friends and family. I'm looking for someone who is: Real and is ready and open for a relationship yet not an instant one. I need the time to properly get to know someone so in time you know that emotionally there is a true connection. I am a plan maker-I can be totally spontaneous, a lady and call on Wednesday for a weekend date. I love my career and I am good at it yet it doesn't define me. I love to laugh and be able to share Yiddish words and meanings with someone who knows what they mean. Respect, loving the relationship, honest and on the same page is truly important. Its simple, respect for each others feelings from the beginning through the end. I'm a loving woman i was born in New York raised in Italy Rome I am Civil Consultant Engineer. I enjoy great dates in a romantic atmosphere, dinner, movies, art galleries, concerts, the symphony, or just being together. I love traveling, snow skiing, boating, fishing, music and photography. My personality is warm, loving and affectionate. I love children very much, like to laugh and make people laugh. To me, loyalty to friends and loved ones (especially in the hard times of life) is probably the most important quality of all. I don?t have any bad habits. I am not saying I am perfect.Aside from my work, I enjoy taking care of home, indoors and outside, gardening, cooking, shopping,listening to music(R&B, 80's
