Questions

By things I mean trying out new restaurants, going to the mall for shopping, visiting new places, running errands on her own.

I am pretty much like that. I do care about my friends and I do enjoy spending time with them but most of the time it is very hard to decide upon any activity when all four of us are together..

I was wondering whether guys find it strange? A possible turn off?

I wouldn't say I aim to be independent but I must admit that doing things on my own is easier, freeing (not having to rely on anyone, wait for anyone, you do what YOU want).

It does NOT mean I wouldn't want to do things with my boyfriend.

Yes I know all of these online sites are very much the same but some have to be based less of photos and more on actual personality, etc. which adds actual value to a relationship.

I tried Match and found the majority of men were not interesting. Most are only reaching out based on looks & when you get to talking to them they really don't have much to offer an intelligent successful woman except their wallets (unsurprisingly a lot were divorced). When I want a partner who'd contribute to my life & I theirs beyond money it was unappealing.

Would you rather have a woman who goes through your phone, doesn't like you having close female friends, etc? But she's loves you dearly and is emotionally expressive. She loves having sex with you.

Or would you rather have a woman who doesn't care about your private life, but you have to constantly keep her from getting bored? She feels like sex with you is a chore, unless you put in the effort and she's not needy in any way? She's emotionally stable. She doesn't believe either partner should check their partner's phone.
