I enjoy daily physical acitivity and lean toward a healthy lifestyle, take up new challanges, and jump to the next.
I enjoy visiting new places, learning new cultures, tasting new foods. A draft beer on a sunny day next to the grill, a fine red or white glass of wine paired with food are just some of my favorite things. my palate leads my travels in what my food culture professor calls traveling with fork and spoon. I enjoy traveling and look forward to going to new destinations and visiting old ones. Some exotic foods that are still crawling may be beyond my taste, but im usually up for anything else.
I strive for personal growth you can find me taking classes for fun. I am seeking my match to be similar and have a curiousity of learning and exploring. Reading and seeing go hand in hand and I believe the world is the greatest classroom so lets go and explore.

I attempt to be a humble individual who is looking for a confident women who aspires to learn or teach what she knows, is not condescending or self centered and enjoys being in a relationship more then having relationship.

Meet someone special 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.
Date 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.

Meet a man from United States. I work in a family business that's going through an exciting time, and I am extremely upbeat about my professional life. While I would be more comfortable talking about my job after I've met you, one of the best perks is that I get to take Charlie the soft coat wheaton terrier poodle mix who is the co-star of my profile to work with me. He is a great office companion, and I feel very grateful that I don't have to leave him home alone all day.
I enjoy practicing Yoga, going to the dog park, hitting a tennis ball around, following the Giants, Warriors, and Niners, watching the best of scripted television, and reading the news. As to movies, I enjoy following certain dirctors but if the Tomato-meter is right, I'll see anything . although I try to be content in the here and now of day to day life, I love to travel to both places warm and cold.
I'm looking for someone who wants to create a world of inside jokes and expressions based on our ever growing shared experience. I'm looking for someone who's a great conversationalist and most of the time prefers to be gently ironic than bitterly sarcastic. While I don't know exactly what we will do together, I hope we will have similar tastes in T.V., both enjoy watching some bursts of baseball and football, and also watch what ever her favorite things are. . As far as fitness goes, I want to meet someone who works out pretty hard, and if they wish to practice Yoga with me, so much the better. Overall, I want to meet someone who enjoys the world that she's created for herself, and ultimately wants to share it with a best friend who just happens to be me, and together we'll put the cart and the horse together. Hopefully in the correct order.

Meet a soulmate from United States. I'm wondering how life would have turned out if I had just forwarded those damn chain e-mails!
I'm originally from England, but (luckily) have found my way to the Bay Area. For work, I'm an IT Director for a very successful media company. I have a great group of friends and meet them at our local hangouts pretty regularly.
I love to travel, and find it necessary for perspective, not to mention it's just good for the soul. I have family all over the world and travel to see them as often as I can. I'm also a history buff and love a good debate. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a fan of arguing, but a good intellectual debate. I'm looking for someone with a *good* sense of humor and a sense of adventure. I love to laugh and making others laugh.
I went to school at a top tier school in the North East, but moved to California in 1996. I really miss the sub-zero temperatures in the winter, and waking up at 5 am to shovel the hill of ice the snow plow put in front of the drive way. You basically have to hibernate for 5 months out of the year. Obviously, my plans changed and I ended up settling here in the Bay Area. California has such a different mentality than most of the places that I have lived but there's no other place that I would rather be.
My career has kept me pretty busy throughout the years and I work a lot. I am at a point now where I am trying to find a good balance in my life. There are literally thousands of things to do in the Bay Area that I haven't done or haven't done enough of. This is where you come in. Yes, I am using you for my own benefit. :)
I'm not really looking for a "partner in crime" as I'm not planning on knocking off any liquor stores any time soon. All jokes aside, I lost my wing man last year to an amazing woman. And I'd like a shot at something like that...What I'm looking for is a friend, a lover and someone whom I would ultimately like to spoil and see a future with. I ultimately would like a family and am committed to a strong family unit.
