Looking for a movie, dinner, picnic, museum and exploring buddy. I'm trying to find and fulfill the life side of the 'work life balance' and hope to find someone to share it with.
Date a man from California, United States. Born and raised on a pear farm in Southern Oregon, I'm very down-to-earth and easy going. I have a strong sense in what I want in life and in a long-term relationship. I'm a high energy person with a wide range of interests that include salsa dancing, cooking, lifting weights, skiing, and international travel. I work in Strategy at one of the big high-tech firms in the Bay Area. I'd tell you what this means, but unfortunately Match.com doesn't let you attach Power Point presentations.
I'm looking for somebody that's optimistic and has a sense of adventure. I’m a very romantic and generous person, so I’d like to find somebody who’s interested in reciprocating. I generally prefer someone that is working on a professional career, but also has an artistic side. Ideally, you’d have some athletic ability or interest, but it’s certainly not a requirement.
I'm driven by new challenges, adventures and accomplishing my goals. I've never felt the need to use an illegal drug, get a tattoo or stay at home and be lazy. I love to experience life rather than watch it pass.
The biggest thing I've done recently is I bought a four bedroom house in Burlingame with an excellent view, which I am very excited about.
Meet single man from California, United States. Someone who is happy with who they are but also know that life is about learning and improving themselves. I am Taiwanese and if you understand politics in Taiwan, I am pro Taiwan independence. As for American politics, I would say middle of the road. somewhat liberal social views but conservative financial views. Not into the extreme tea party or idiotic rebel without a clue (occupy) in SF, Berkeley, etc. I would like someone who is not rigid in their ways. None of the my way or the highway situation. I can list a laundry list of things but it is about the chemistry between people. I usually know the first time I meet someone if they are of any interest to me as a potential mate. It's something I just know and can not really explain. Since I was little, I was always able to read the personality of someone by meeting them.
I'm looking for someone to be a partner in life for life. I want someone who will be loyal, faithful, loving, and other good things. I don't ask for anything that I am not. Someone who looks forward to spending time with me because she wants to. Someone who loves me for me and are not looking for a fixer upper. I'm not a house. I understand relationships are not easy and it's got it's ups and downs. No one is a complete match for each other but it's about what you are going to be happy with and willing to compromise. Love is something I would never compromise. I may love someone but if they don't love me, I would never marry them. People argue about the small things in life and in the grand scheme of things, it just doesn't matter. Life is about the moments and I want to spend as many moments with the one I love as I can. I admit that I tend to be protective at first and somewhat elusive. There is a lot under all of that for the one that will earn my love and trust. It's about the one that will want to take the time/chance to find out.
For those that watch HIMYM, I feel what Ted says. "You can't talk yourself into falling in love. It doesn't take days of deliberation. When it's real you know pretty quickly and with absolute certainty."
you:
- you are looking for a partner through/for life and are interested in marrying someone because of who they are and not for superficial, financial, religious, convenience, and other reasons besides love.
- no vegetarians, vegans, etc
- you enjoy sex and do not use it as a way to control a relationship.
- you are not into drugs.
- you are not a smoker.
- you want kids.
- you want to get married in the near future. I would like to spend time with the one person I will be married to. I don't want to spend a few years to get to know someone who is not interest in getting married. If you are at a point in your life that you want to settle down and be married, then we have that in common.
A bit about my background. Born in Taiwan. Grew up in NYC. Lived in Bay Area for the last 12 years. Still consider myself a New Yorker and miss the food there. Love to try recipes to cook and bake. Trying out a few experiments on making lox. Already know how to make real NYC bagels(hard shell soft inside). Thai recipe from my class in Bangkok. Taiwanese recipes from Taiwanese cookbook. Cook and bake anything else friends and family request. I also go to the shooting range to practice.
Someone mentioned to me that my profile is a bit tough to deal with. I agree, it's done for a purpose. I'm not here to date a lot of girls, I'm here to find the one to spend the rest of my life with. I don't need a lot of responses, I just need the one right response.
I'm not here to play games with people. If I contact you and you don't get back to me, then I assume you are not interested. If you are too busy to get back to me, good for you. It tells me you are too busy for me in your life. This is a dating site, please understand what you are getting yourself into.
