Date men and women from United States / California / Alameda, 32 year old

Date a man from United States. I'm new to this site and would just like to give it a try and see what will happen. I'm looking to meet someone who is outside of my current network of friends, especially someone who is genuine, caring, family oriented, and have intention to have a family one day in the future. I have been told that I'm a friendly, easy going, and a down to earth type of person. I love exploring, learning, and trying new things. I'm a single Chinese-American, currently living and working in east bay. Just a brief description about me: I was born in Hong Kong, grew up in the bay area since I was 13, college educated, caring, hardworking, reliable, have a stable job, don't smoke/drink and no drug. I enjoy reading, music, movies, and running in my spare time...

Meet someone special from United States. I'm a cancer. I have a tough outer shell, but really I'm a softy inside. If i'm hanging out with my family I'm the life of the party. I'm originally from Minnesota, so I do have good mid western values. I love how close I am with my family even though their thousands of miles away.
I have a very demanding job. I have been known to work long hours. I'm willing to do whatever it takes to get the job done. I am very stubborn in business and always believe we can achieve our goals with persistency and hard work. I have been very fortunate in life, but i'm really just a down to earth guy. I'm happy with where Im at right now at this time, the only thing missing is someone special to be around in our spare time.

Date people from United States. I have a good sense of humor, which is often a little sarcastic or obscure. I'm pretty rational and levelheaded and I don't get angry that often. I was also told growing up that I was mature for my age. I enjoy hanging out with friends but am also pretty self-reliant and comfortable being alone.
Honestly, I think I have a lot to offer. I have a good education. I consider myself smart and well-read, not necessarily with a lot of classic literature, but I know a lot of facts and trivia. I think I'd do pretty well on Jeopardy for example. I'm ambitious and enjoy my career. I have my own place. I have a car. I'm relatively young. I'm tall. I'm in good shape. I don't smoke. I have all my hair. I'm considerate and funny. I have good friends and a good relationship with my family.... What more could you want from a guy? Maybe it's weird to just lay everything out there like that, but this is what you get when you ask an engineer to describe himself. :)
I'd like to meet a girl who is non-cynical and fun to spend time with, has a positive attitude in general, is smart, confident, independent, sincere, and doesn't take everything too seriously. Intelligence is definitely important in the long run. It's nice to be able to talk about topics other than just the latest reality show.
I like it when a girl does something to show that she cares enough to put some effort into a relationship. For example, if she tells a funny story all on her own without me having to lead the entire conversation, or if she sends a nice email in the middle of the workday just to say hi, or if she suggests ideas for dates occasionally instead of always relying on the guy to do the planning. Don't get me wrong, I'm perfectly capable of having a conversation and planning a date, but I also appreciate positive feedback and interactivity. :)
One more thing. Girls who live in San Francisco: if you only want to meet guys who live in the city, please reduce your desired radius to 5 miles or so just to save us both some time. :)

Meet men and women from United States. I would consider myself as a serious person. I'm really don't like a guy who's just fooling around in a relationship. I want someone who's nice and generous. Who don't play around in a relationship. Someone who is serious, fun, kind, and can take care of my. Someone who is a gentleman.

Date a woman from United States. Attempting find a good work-life balance and someone with similar values. I enjoy the outdoors and daytime, family, friends, and my two dogs. I currently live in Central California, but wish to return to Northern California soon, where I grew up in the East Bay Area.

Meet someone special from Alameda, United States. Trust me I'm cute, I'm just a bit skeptical about putting my picture online. I am looking for a true companion and a best friend. Someone who is mature, honest and stable. I am big on personality, if you can make me laugh, thats a plus! Respect and honesty are two very important qualitites that I look for in a man. Sports are my passion so someone athletic or passionate about sports, especially basketball would be the ideal person for me. I am fun, honest, loyal and down to earth. I am also very loving and giving but I expect the same in return. I like to keep things fresh and exciting. I love dressing up and going out for fun romantic evenings but I also dont mind staying in and cuddling on the couch for a movie night. If you think we could have something in common, don't be shy I am more then willing to send a picture of myself ;)

Date a soulmate from Alameda, United States. I am a fun loving, laid back, sports fan with a passion for life. I love to travel and being outdoors...Looking for a chivalrous man who has the same passions in life and most of all who wants to share his life with someone.

Meet people from Alameda, United States. It's been an bittersweet year so far but I'm never bitter about the rough stuff because I focus on the blessings and learn from the rest. Passed my graduate school exiting exam and was hand selected by my university for a great predoctoral internship. So, in a yr. it will be Dr. Desiree.
I know my profile is long but I try to weed out true matches. One thing I always strive to be is honest even if it makes me less popular. A word to the wise, never spend 5 nights in Vegas right before surgery, asking for trouble but I learned a lot from my very short marriage and got some nice photos from my 6 months of lockdown with the wicked warden of the west! Lol! I take pre-surgery jitters to a whole new level! Lol! Also, dont marry someone that is not up to the level of guys you normally date because you think they are a good person and they promise to do anything for you because they just end up being a jealous mess, this was an educational 6 months for sure. Was going to be respectful of his feelings and not put profile up till we divorced but he is on here so I wish him luck and appreciate this releasing of my moral obligation. If anyone is hesitant to contact me because they fear I might not fallow through with divorce they have nothing to fear, TRUST ME, never going to happen. Not bitter, just done.
I'm born and raised in Hawaii and it will always be in my heart. I am the type of woman who can do almost anything I set my mind to, it may not come easy to me at first but I will keep trying till I'm good at it. I can be an angel and or a devil! Classy and educated or wild! I also definitely have a cheesy, goofy, clown around side. I've been called a little ball of energy, also been told I'm full of surprises! I'm very creative and like to find unique ways to make the man I pick feel special. My favorite thing to do is laugh. I'm mature enough to realize I'm not perfect, sometimes I make mistakes but I usually own up to it and apologize.
I don't take myself or match too seriously. The more serious my work gets the less serious I want my free time to be. Soon there will be an end to my grad school masochism and it will pay off with me being a real contributing member of the household when I settle down and not just a sellout trophy bride. I'm good at what I do but Im also my grad school's class clown and crack jokes every opportunity I get even if they are at my own expense. I've dated a great deal, went through my wish list of types and found fame and looks don't matter as much as heart and NON JEALOUS NATURE!! I'm at the point where I can truly appreciate a good, sweet, normal man but he has to be driven or he won't understand my drive. Yes, I know I used poor language and bad editing on my profile but anyone judgmental enough to edit this thing would never work with me anyway. In a relationship you should be each other's #1 fan, the rest of the world provides enough harsh reality. Hopefully next time my man will keep that status by saving the drama for his momma and the CSI investigations for the TV! Lol
I've been told many times that I'm likeable and fun. I get asked often "how are you still single? ( except for my vegas spontaious let down) It's not that I'm hiding a tail or an 11th toe! LOL! I put my education first; I'm very driven and have chosen the challenging path in my field. I have huge plans for my future. I don't get much free time so when I do I'm very selective about whom I spend it with. I don't predate, if I wanted to meet a man in a bar I wouldn't be on this site! LOL! I want an old fashioned romantic guy who puts thought in to our first date and wouldn't want it to be some awkward speed date at a bar. Not too into the bar/club scene, there is a time and a place and it's called Las Vegas. I go, get REALLY crazy and then I'm good on that for a while.

Date men and women from Alameda, United States. After many years of school and having my career as a priority, I am now looking for a more balanced life. Like some people on Match, I find it difficult to meet someone at a bar or club so decided to give Match a try.
I am a down to earth, easy going person who enjoys having a good time with friends and family. I work hard on most days so when I have free time, I want to have fun with good company. On weekends, you can find me taking short trips to try new restaurants, going to Napa for wine tasting, spending time with my friends/family, watching basketball (I'm a huge Warriors fan), or just relaxing at home and catching up on some TV.
I'm looking for someone who also is easy going with a good sense of humor because laughter can make most things in life better. I tend to be a little bit on the quiet side so I need someone to get me out of my comfort zone. Since I have a passion for food (from hole in the wall places to fancy restaurants to cooking at home), I would love someone that enjoys the same.

Meet a woman from Alameda, United States. I've re-written this 100 times, but it never sounds right. Writing about yourself is just kind of weird....I suppose that's why so many people start with "my friends would tell you....Or, my mother says...." About me, I am a thoughtful, dedicated and caring person. A good friend to many, I love to laugh and enjoy life. Family is very important to me. Music makes my heart sing. Going to concerts, singing with the sunroof open, and even exercising to something good on my ipod are all right up there on my list of enjoyable ways to spend time. Cooking and learning about food play a big role in my life, and I'm always looking for someone to show me their favorite dish or a new restaurant. I'm missing that person to have fun exploring life's adventures or relaxing at home after a busy day, are you looking for the same?
I'm looking for a best friend and a partner in life. Someone who appreciates that I truly enjoy cooking and making my house into a home. A partner who sometimes wants to spend an evening at home watching a movie or tv, or invite friends over for dinner and play apples to apples or maybe even some wii (I'm pretty good at bowling and mario if I do say so myself). Someone who loves to travel is also a plus. I'm looking for a partner to share my life and to create new memories and traditions to call our own.
