Chuleta's profile

I’m a Latina from NYC with an insatiable appetite for knowledge, writing and laughter. I come from a huge, poor but loving and caring family. My mom was one of 18 children and when my maternal grandparents died in the 70s, they had 96 grandchildren and 63 great grands. Although I do graphic design for a living, my dream is to one day be a well known creative writer or a 5 star chef. My family has given me many stories and rich characters to write about.

I am not an average mainstream thinker.  My friends describe me as being peerless and say I’m a lively, outgoing, charming, sexy, down-to-earth person with a fantastic sense of humor. I’m compassionate, independent, thoughtful, hard-working, honest, confident and value all those things in life money can't buy. Helping others who are less fortunate is important to me as well as teaching others skills to improve their lives. Love to laugh a lot especially at myself and I use laughter, music and acts of kindness as my therapy.  I love to dance, cook and write and I also have a passion for photography but not that great at it. Feel equally comfortable in jeans as I do in a gown. Enjoy fine dining but prefer authentic mom & pop restaurants in different ethnic neighborhoods. I am a true romantic and prefer romantic evenings at home, cuddled in front of a TV sharing a box of tissues over a real tear-jerker with a significant other. Love walking on the beach and in the park on a crisp autumn day, quiet picnics by a lake enjoying the music made by nature. Cherish true friendship and family but most of all cherish true and sincere love with a man that can love the whole person I am.  I avoid negative, shallow, dishonest, selfish, stingy, mean-spirited, evil people.

I'm content with my life right now and looking for friends to stimulate and challenge me mentally and intellectually. I believe the day will come when I am blessed with a man that will touch me where I love to be touched…my heart.
