and so a secret kiss brings madness with the bliss
I'm learning Turkish. I love the Turkish people, and in particular Turkish men! I work in psychiatric research in Chicago. I will be going back to school in the near future. I want to meet good people and not waste the best years of my life.

Insights
When raising a family, how important is it that your kids learn to speak Turkish?
I want my kids to grow up speaking several languages. It depends on what my spouse and I speak. I want them to pick that up.
Describe the perfect evening.
Window shopping, followed by candlelit dinner/drinks and live jazz or wild dancing. I've always found the best end to a night being running around in the grass barefoot under the moonlight while being silly and flirty.
Describe your perfect weekend.
It depends on my finances. I usually window shop, go on road trips with friends or attend live jazz clubs.
Do you believe in love at first sight?
No, but I believe in compelling lust and fate-inspired chemistry at first sight.
How many kids would you like to have?
Not many. I was an only child and I see much value in keeping the number manageable. It's good to have a lot of time and resources to spend on/with each child as they grow up.
If you could have one super power, what would it be and why?
I would protect innocent people from predators. I see innocent people getting harmed by politicians, criminals, psychopaths, and I find that the most harrowing and depressing part of living in the city, or even just among humans.
What is the most important lesson that you've learned?
I've had many bad and mediocre personals ad experiences on major sites. I've had one long term and intensely romantic relationship. I kind of gave it up to have fun. Now I don't want to compromise. I want both the fun and the romance!
What do your friends like about you most?
I am spunky, spontaneous and a pretty quick thinker. I can get things done, solve puzzles and then make mischief.
What do your friends tease you about the most?
They tease me that I seem like I always have one thing on my mind.
What gets on your nerves?
Too much noise and stimulation around me, pathologically insensitive and inconsiderate people.
What is the most important thing in a relationship?
Chemistry above and beyond all else. Communication is important, but that usually comes more easily with chemistry.
What's the best age to get married?
Late 20s, early or middle 30s.
What turns you off?
Men who are more obsessed with their bodies than with mine, arrogance, misogynism, willful ignorance and intolerance
What turns you on?
Clothing, the taking off and putting on, men's body language when their turned on, flirting, wit, innocence
What do you hope to be doing five years from now?
I'm still finding my path. I hope that I will have either gotten a professional degree or found a career, maybe a serious partner, marriage and/or kid(s). I also hope that I will have acquired some great experiences on the way, while I am young.
