Date someone special from California, United States. I like simplicity in life, but do appreciate and enjoy the finer things. I love being active as much as a I love stimulating conversations, good books and hanging out with family and close friends. I believe in living life with a strong moral perspective. I find myself drawn to people who have direction in life and are passionate about following it, but also know how to take a step back and enjoy it.
Meet people from California, United States. Thanks for clicking on my face! How does one accurately summarize themselves in a paragraph? I’ll do my best…..I’m originally from Salem, Oregon, and have lived in the South bay for over 10 years now. (although I don’t believe I’d ever consider myself a local). I'm a guy's guy...I like watching sports , playing sports, being active and outdoors. When I drink, I drink whiskey or beer....not wine (not that there's anything wrong with that of course). I enjoy camping, skiing, hiking, fishing (although there isn't any in the bay area), college/NFL football (Go Beavers!), and my weekly poker game with friends. I'm happy to stay in and watch a movie too though, as long as it isn't a romantic comedy (I am open to negotiation here though). I'd be thrilled to find a woman I could share similar interests with, although maybe not all of them, that might be a bit weird :)
That said, I have two real passions in life that have taken precedence of late: raising my 15 month old daughter, and my career as a biology/physiology teacher at a local High School..... I’d describe myself as extremely laid back, patient person who’s not particularly shy, but reserved until comfortable in any given situation.
My siblings and I were raised in a loving home with wonderful parents who taught us the difference between right and wrong, how to solve problems/disagreements without yelling and saying hurtful things. They modeled selflessness, responsibility, and respect at all times. These qualities seem to be lost in society these days (particularly among men), but this is what I'm looking for in a partner. Based on my experience, one's family and upbringing speak volumes in this regard.
Ideally I'd also be interested in meeting someone who has a calm, yet fun personality, a sense of humor, is reasonably intelligent, kind, and honest. I know nobody's perfect, but if you're high strung, controlling, irritable, lazy, dishonest, or bat sh*t crazy, I'm out.....and oh yeah, and if it takes you less than an hour to get ready to go somewhere that's a big plus!
Date a soulmate from California, United States. I enjoy hanging out with family and friends, meeting new and interesting people, traveling, and having a great glass of wine. I'd like to meet someone that can be a great friend and more, great conversation and honesty. Interested in someone serious in a relationship, no games and no lies!! thanks!
Meet people from California, United States. I'm a woman of God. Never claiming perfection but looking daily to God so that he can help be a better person. Im really anticipating the day I have a family. I love kids and can't wait to meet the right man that can be a father my future kids. If this sounds too scary for you then you aren't the right guy for me. Im just being honest because most men know what they do or dont want right from the start, so hopefully there wont be any confusion about my intentions here. I am a very independent girl, I love just about everything. Dancing, singing, festivals, hiking/jogging/biking, cooking,and just enjoying life. Things I dont like : scary movies, camping, commuting to SF everyday :( , fishy fish, racism, superficiality, arrogance, being treated like a commodity, feeling cold/fog, parallel parking, being tired, working OT, angry people, burnt food and a messy house/cleaning...haha ;) I am looking for a Christian man that knows what he wants, is self sufficient, fun, considerate,hard working, sweet, mellow but adventurous, enthusiastic about life, loyal, at peace with himself and grateful! I know no one is perfect and my list of wants can go on and on but what I really want is someone that I can rely on, have fun with and be attracted to. Im pretty open as long as we have some things in common, you can respect me, you are emotionally & financially stable. This last bit I added because I have met a few unstable through online dating. I can take care of myself so I hope you can take care of yourself. Ok this last part is super important...I LOVE the beach and hot weather. I used to live in Florida and would like to move back in the next few years. (parents are aging and real estate is cheap) This is not set in stone but I miss it tremendously and I am hoping to meet someone that loves pool time, boating, jet skiing, tubing and laying in sugar like sand that would consider a move like that. Hope you like to travel!!!!!!!!! :)
Date men and women from California, United States. Love to travel, explore local festivals, wine tasting in Napa, outdoor activities...basically up for any adventure!
Grew up in the bay area, went to Santa Barbara for school then studied nursing in New York, traveled and lived abroad and am now back in my home town.
Let’s see…I’d love to meet a trustworthy guy who genuinely enjoys life! Someone with a killer sense of humor wouldn’t hurt…seems to me that if you can’t laugh together you won’t make it through the rough stuff. I’m sure there are other things…but basically I’m just hoping to meet an all around good, solid, fun guy that I love spending time with.
Meet a woman from United States. A little about myself, I'm the oldest of three girls. As far as, describing myself...well, I'm pretty laid back and easy going, yet driven. My friends would describe me as intelligent, funny, outgoing (although at times I can be somewhat reserved), confident yet humble, a good person. I like to keep busy, and I rarely stay in on the weekends, I'm always out and about.
I'm looking for someone who can be more than my partner, someone who can be my best friend, someone that I enjoy spending time with and who enjoys spending time with me. He would need to share my sense of humor (which is a little sarcastic), my playfulness, he needs to have a passion for travel, be intellectually curious, and at times can act like a dork. I find confidence, intelligence, and kindness very attractive. I'm looking for someone who is assertive and fun to be with, someone who makes me laugh.
Some of the things that I enjoy are: playing golf, hiking, camping, running.grabbing a couple of drinks/coffee with friends, going out dancing. I even go indoor rock climbing (got belayed certified, although I don't do it as often), and scuba diving.
Date someone special from United States. I was just looking at your profile and I like your look. I exercise 3 - 5 time a week. I work for the county with special needs kids. I have a daughter that is 12. I have a older son also. I have been single for 6 years. The last year I was taking care of my parents who just passed away. That was really hard. Just trying to pick up the pieces and move on. I like bike riding, roller blading, swimming, camping, going to the beach and spending time with my kids. I am latina.
Meet a soulmate from United States. Originally I'm from Colorado but grew up in Southern California. I went to school and worked for a while in the Davis/Sacramento area. Moved to the South Bay for my job. On my days off you would likely find me hiking the peninsula hills, biking, spending the day in Santa Cruz, meeting up with friends in SF, or baking a pie. I love to bake and make a pretty good pie.
I enjoy a great read as well as a good cheesy movie... although it's a shame when a good book has been turned into a cheesy movie, funny how that works. I love going to concerts and try to catch a show as often as I can; punk, rock, funk, blue-grass, or anything that I can jump up-and-down to works for me.
When I'm not jumping up and down at concerts, I'm also into running and hiking. I run along a trail near my house a couple times a week. I run for fun and it's a great way to unwind after work. The hiking in this area is amazing and I'm always looking to try out a new trail. In addition to local hikes I love backpacking and go for a week every summer in Yosemite.
I'm equal parts silly and serious; I eat way too many gummy bears and NPR is always on in the car. I'm a pretty mellow person. I love to laugh and appreciate a good sense of humor.
I'm looking for someone who is passionate about life but does not take himself too seriously. Someone who is reliable, genuine. and loves to laugh with me. And while I love to bake pies you wouldn't necessarily have to eat them but it's kind of a must that you enjoy getting outdoors: hiking, camping, backpacking, or cycling.
