Luckylizday, 51

I am an ex-circus performer turned bleeding-heart designer with a passion for organic food, exotic travel, running, yoga and adventure of all kinds. I still dabble in the aerial arts and love anything involving crafts or costumes.

While I can and often do blend seamlessly into the mainstream, I much prefer people who are more than a little bit creative, quirky, goofy, bold and self-aware. My favorite friends tend to have experienced and overcome some hardship in life. Anyone who's ever met me will tell you that I share those qualities -- I'm certainly not hiding anything -- but people are often surprised when they first get past my deceptively average nice-girl facade.

I like my relationships authentic, open and honest. I am a terrible, horrible, no good very bad liar, so you will never, ever need to wonder where you stand with me. I count on the same from you.

Monogamy is not a must, but safety, respect, a love of cuddling and --- and a willingness to put in the time and go through the process are. If this sounds like you, I'd love to meet you.
