Date men and women from United States / California / Benicia - page 8

Date single girl from California, United States. I am a cardiac Nurse in the Bay Area. I work a lot but I love to go out and have fun on my days off. I'm a hardworking independent woman, and I recently bought my first home. I am looking for someone that is independent, honest, and genuine.

Meet men and women from California, United States. Im looking for someone who can make me smile and who I can make smile with how goofy I am. I'm really motivated and determined in my career and education and I'm looking for someone who is the same. Someone who knows what they want in life and in a relationship.
I would love someone who i could just chill with, eating ice cream on the couch, or someone who would be down to go on a hike when the weathers too nice to ignore. I like to get outdoors and walk or run pretty much everyday, and am looking forward to getting a dog to go along for the ride.
Im pretty open to all experiences and I'm hoping this will expand my comfort zone
Right now I work as a chemist, and am going back to school to test out the field of psychology. I never want to stop learning.

Date men and women from Benicia, United States. I love to smile and I love to laugh. Life is too short, so have some fun with it!! I've been told that I'm way to happy and excited about life. So if you can't stand to be around someone who is always having a good time, I'm not the girl for you.
I've lived in the Bay area all my life. I love it here and am glad to call it home. However, I love getting out and seeing different places as well. I unfortunately haven't seen much of the world at all, but am looking forward to doing so one day. I've traveled up and down the coast trying to find any little nook or hidden city on the way. I've been to Mexico a few times, this last trip including zip lining and tequila tasting in the jungle. I've also been to Canada, but for only an hour which is an odd story. That's as far as my little Califonia wings have spread other than amongst the states which include Colorado, Maine, Nevada, and Hawaii. Looking forward to seeing much, much more of the world one day.
I am currently working and going to school. With in this next year I plan to get my Bachelors degree in Business Admin/Accounting I know, I know... Accounting... How boring. I originally was going to do something graphic design based but I was to scared to go to school for something involving art, so business it was. I do enjoy art of many different kinds in my free time though.
What am I looking for? Obviously, a kind, honest, trustworthy gent. It's a shame we even have to list traits like that. They should be a given. More importantly, you've got to be able to smile and have a good time. What's the point of life if we're not enjoying it? So lighten up and have some fun. A sense of humor is must. A guy who can make me laugh, can just about have my heart. I think a good sense of humor is by far the most charming characteristic in a person. I'm looking for someone who loves adventure and getting out as much as I do, but always enjoy quiet time at home. It's all about the balance of both. Although I know how to be serious when need be, I'm generally kind of a smartass so the more quick witted banter the better!

Meet people from Benicia, United States. I love my life. I get to do exactly what I'm passionate about every single day. Apparently I have an East Coast attitude, but have never lived anywhere other than Northern California. I've got a little bit of sass not going to lie and my friends describe my personality as a mixture of sassy and feisty. I was raised by boys surrounding me so I learned to have a tough skin quickly. My laugh is ridiculously loud and infectious. I have a weird hybrid of a Southern/Canadian accent probably because of the people I hang around so don't be alarmed if I say 'ya'll' or pronounce it 'aboot'. I look younger than I actually am and it confuses people. I thank chiropractic and yoga.
I can do just about anything in 5 inch heels due to the fact all my friends are tall and refuse to wear flats no matter where we go. My friends and family mean to the world to me and I am lucky enough to have most of them in the bay area.
I like the calmness in the morning and it is probably the only time of the day that my mind isn't on hyper-drive.
I love wine, beer and whiskey so I like to think I'm well rounded.

Date someone special from Benicia, United States. I am a fairly mellow person, but am ready and willing to have new experiences. I enjoying hiking and exploring the outdoors. I also spend a lot of time drawing, painting, and making all kinds of crafts. My friends will also tell you that I read too much, but I love good stories. I read a lot of classics and realistic fiction, but I also enjoy fantasy and Marvel comics.
I am looking for someone who is ready to try new things and share old favorites. Someone who is comfortable spending time at home or over coffee just talking and getting to know me and me him. We should also go out and spend an evening going to dinner and exploring an area. For example, I like to go to Clement Street in San Francisco and look at the shops and then pick a restaurant I've never been to, or eat at a tested favorite.
My friends would describe me as a serious, yet passionate person. I care deeply for my friends, family, and pets. I probably spend too much time on art and books. It would be nice to find someone with similarly geeky, so we can have share our fandoms.
I want someone I can learn with. Someone who is sharing and funny, but also his own person.

Meet someone special from United States. Cheers to trying new things...
I'm self-motivated & driven. I love playing and watching sports. I play soccer, golf, run, and recently began biking and triathlons.
I love to travel. I get so much out of going new places & learning about other cultures. Last trip was Bali. One goal on my bucket list is to visit all continents (minus Antarctica). Living in Florence for a summer after college and traveling through Europe is one of my greatest experiences (Challenging, scary & awesome!). I love exploring new places- its fun to have company, but I'm also comfortable going solo. Future trips include: Vietnam, Cambodia, Turkey, Norway, Brazil... list goes on & on.
I'm looking for a good looking, confident, fun guy who can be silly. Laughter and communication is key. IРІР‚в„ўm not into people who take themselves too seriously. Relationships with family, friends, and animals are very important.

Date men and women from United States. Well let's see...about me...I was born and raised in Northern California I moved back from Boise a couple years ago for work. I like to stay active and enjoy spending time with my family and friends. Up until recently I spent much of my time remodeling my house and now I can sit in the backyard and enjoy it! I work hard and am constantly challanged by my job. I am looking to meet someone I click with, I value hardworkers (as I am), honesty, integrety and someone who can laugh at himself as much as I do...Oh yeah you must like dogs since I have 2.

Meet men and women from United States. I'm a hard working single mom with two fantastic kids. I moved away from my friends and family so my kids could have equal time with both parents. I like to have fun and don't really know many people out in this area, so it would be great to meet some fun, funny and really nice people to hang out with.

I have two great boys who I spend alot of time with. I'm not looking to replace their father, I want a playmate! Wink Wink
I like to go to concerts (80's girl at heart), stroll on the beach, smile and laugh. I used to love to ski Tahoe in the winter, but have not had the opportunity to do that for awhile now. Hiking a trail on Mt Tam and seeing the views is great too. I'm open to adventure.
Recently separated and just want to have some fun for now and take it slow. I would like to be in love again and where that leads down the road we shall see.
To the world you maybe just one person, but to one person you may be the world.

Meet men and women from Benicia, United States. I should probably start by saying that I'm not on this site to participate in a revolving door, dating marathon. I have a ton of respect for myself and a very strong sense of who I am and what I am looking for. So if you are flipping through profiles in pursuit of something superficial, short-lived, and meaningless you should probably stop reading now.
Now on to the difficult part, and here's to throwing all caution to the wind...
About Me:
I would describe myself as "authentically down-to-earth", genuinely humble, unconditionally honest and definitely NOT high maintenance. I completely shy away from drama, life is too short. I try not to take anything for granted and I take time to appreciate the "little" things in life that often go unnoticed. I have learned that it is not our "possessions" that define our character; it is what we have on the inside-what we are made of, what we can offer others, and what we can contribute that counts. I tend to keep track of time in laughs rather than years. The ability to make someone laugh, and laugh at one's self is priceless. I'm often described as sweet, but feisty when provoked. I catch people off guard at times with witty, out of character (I can't believe she just said that!) comments. Although I am very feminine and girly in appearance and in the way that I carry myself, I feel obligated to warn you that I have a competitive streak in me. I played softball/pitched from the time I was 7 through College (yes I threw really hard and I could strike guys out!). Four years of intercollegiate ball will add a competitive “edge” to any girl. So considering I have a feminine and a competitive side, it goes without saying that I can go from a fancy dress, heels and all, to a baseball hat and tennis shoes in a red hot minute! I’m intelligent and I like to think pretty well rounded and easy going. I’m stable and reliable, but at times I love impulsivity and just “flying by the seat of my pants”. So fasten your seat belt and hold on tight! I’m independent and strong in ways that still surprise me, I have life experiences to thank for that, what doesn’t kill us makes us stronger right? There are things I still want to do, the list includes, but is not limited to... learning how to play the acoustic guitar, taking Salsa lessons, Cooking classes-I’m a huge Food Network fan, I want to get certified to scuba dive, both of my dogs passed their “Canine Good Citizen” test so they are certified to do therapy work in hospitals and convalescent homes. I’d be selfish not to share them with people who need encouragement, cheering up, and just a little four-legged company. The last thing about me, I am very lucky to have two wonderful parents that have been married for 47 years, a testament that true love does exist! We are very close, I'm an only child, and no, I'm NOT spoiled.
In a relationship, I believe that friendship is the foundation upon which true, long lasting love is built. It allows walls to come down, trust to be established, and we finally surrender and listen to our hearts. I am big on loyalty, respect, communication, thoughtfulness, and spontaneous affection. I do believe it is possible to fall “Head Over Heels In Love”.
My Match is a man that I admire and am proud to be with. He should be able to make me laugh until my side hurts, have compassion for others, and be very warm hearted. He should be strong and protective, but not in a jealous or possessive way. I want someone that can speed up and wind down with me, I consider life an adventure that is better shared with someone you genuinely love. And finally, I want to be able to fall into someone’s arms and feel like I am finally “home”, no matter where in this crazy world we are. If you are looking for the same, we just might be a Match : ).

Date a woman from California, United States. I find it very easy to be happy and have been lucky enough in my life to have all of the things that I need. I have two sweet daughters that, like the rest of my family, are very important to me. Compared to some, I live a relatively quiet life- it's not filled with adventure, travel and grand excitement. Instead, I am surrounded by joy and beauty every day and try not to take any of that for granted. Honesty is very important to me as well as kindness, loyalty and genuineness. A favorite compliment I've received in the recent past was when I co-worker described me to his wife as...'she's the perfect blend of teacher, girlfriend, mother and angel.' I can't imagine four things I'd rather aspire to!
Athletics have always been a part of my life, but I've never been very competitive. I do like to run because it's an easy and inexpensive thing that you can do most anywhere. I keep a soccer ball and flip flops in the trunk of my car in case anyone feels like kicking the ball around (could use a soccer coach, though!). The flip flops are there in case there is a chance to escape to the beach (or to put on after a long day in high heels!) I rowed port-side in the seventh seat for the women's rowing team in college...see if anyone knows what that means!
It's easy for me to get lost in music...I like all kinds and can usually find something I like in every genre. But songs like Rollerskate Skinny, Alex Chilton, Romeo Juliet, Lady Jane, Honky Tonk Woman, Barley Legal...will usually have me driving around the block to hear them 'til the end.
Like my father, I have a hard time sitting still. Sitting around the house is not really for me. I don't have enough down time in my life to waste it on the sofa. I rarely watch television unless it's a ballgame or a movie. I'd much rather be out doing something fun than wincing through the realities of strangers on t.v. I love to write but rarely have the time to do so. I'm not sure where it came from but I do have a love of cars- especially older, European race cars. I don't claim to know much about the engineering of them but I so appreciate their beauty, grace and sounds. I feel the same way about wooden boats, architecture, fashion and most things with good design. But I can only afford to be an enthusiast, which is fine with me.
In contrast, when it comes to men I'm always looking to what's on the inside and not on the outside. I believe that muscles and good looks don't mean much if one is not kind, understanding, honest, earnest and have a good sense of humor. I am attracted to good people and am rarely impressed by wealth, degrees or possessions. That's not to say that I don't' have respect for hard-working, educated people- I'm surrounded by and am one of those people. But there should be much more to a person that those things, I believe.

Meet a woman from United States. Yes, I have decided to give this online match making a chance.
I am 43 and looking for love. Kinda corny right? Well I was married for 15 years, and have been surfing the single scene for a few years now. My kids are grown, but still at home, and now it is time for me. I have to admit single and 40 just isn't the same as single and 20.
I am bay area born and raised. I do get the opportunity to travel for work,and that is always exciting. Although they have yet to send me somewhere exotic and out of the country, it is amazing how much fun you can find in places like Montana and Texas!
I am looking for someone who is pretty laid back, but likes to have a good time. Hopping in the car and to a last minute hide-a-way for the weekend is great. However I can be just as pleased with a bottle of wine and a cozy sofa. I am still having a hard time putting into words, what I want and what I desire.
I am a very happy person, that loves to meet new people. Didn't think it would be so difficult to put on paper. Honestly, I only know I want a great friend with the option of falling in love.
