INTRODUCING THE LADY:

My name is Mira. I am a 5'5, ADHD functioning, intelligent and passionate black woman. I love reading translated fiction (not Murakami unfortunately), boozy desserts and cuddling on weekends in bed with nowhere to go. The best description of my style and appearance would probably be 90s JCPenny model meets colorful fairy but with lots of eyeliner and a dainty nose stud to match. I also love to write and speak four languages.

I am a happy, affectionate and tender woman looking for somewhere to put all this love (because it's getting heavy). My last long term relationship ended platonically seven months ago and in that time, I've done all the mental exercises required to be in a new and healthy relationship! I don't have too many friends here and would like to have someone to hold hands and laugh with; or work towards having those things together if you are somewhere else in the world.

MY SPECIAL MAN( THIS COULD BE YOU!!):

1. A good head on their shoulders: I am looking for someone with a strong sense of responsibility .I take my words and actions seriously, so you are ideally a man who does the same... sorry short termers and flakes.
2. A great sense of humor: you are able to laugh at the silliest of situations and don't mind a woman who explains some of her jokes to you.
3. Attractive: While physical appearance is subjective, someone who makes an effort with their health, hygiene and appearance are definitely a turn on. In exchange, you'll be getting a beautiful, sweet smelling and hygienic woman.
4. An emotionally mature individual: I am hoping you are the kind of man who is too old for mind games and knows how to communicate his feelings. This means no passive aggressiveness or ending arguments in a tantrum or silent treatment.
5. Looking for a relationship: I would like to meet a man who is also ready to properly be in a relationship. I have nothing against non-monogamy but I am strictly in the market for a one woman man. Let's give each other cute nicknames and sign it on every cheesy thing we do.
6. Stability: I am currently juggling my job as an assistant with my goal of pursuing a masters' degree abroad in a few months or early next year. Because of that, I am interested in a man who also enjoys his job and has goals to avoid crippling debt and general world ruin!

BONUS POINTS IF:

* You have an accent! I have been really into accents recently, with my favorites being Irish, American and Scandinavian. Other accents are welcome too.

* You don't believe distance is an obstacle: While I do not mind long-distance, I would also really like the goal of meeting sooner rather than not to exchange hugs, passionate kisses and compliments.

* White (umbrella term here) but my preference is Caucasian, East Asian, Jewish or Scandinavian. I love men with beautiful eyes and a big smile.

* You are older. I am into older men so 25 and up is a good start. Age is just a number but please don't be creepy or infantilizing.

* You like your women gentle natured, thoughtful, interesting and rubenesque (which is my favorite word currently).

*You are intelligent, well travelled and an all round great guy.

Please make your opening a photo of you and tell me your favorite fruit so I know you're on the same page as me. I am excited to hear from you and hope to build something amazing (while getting free cuddles too). XO
