Date people from United States. To say I enjoy staying at home with the people I care about would be correct. Looking for a fun and educated woman who's willing to try new things and grow as a person. I'm ready to be happy and share my life with someone who maker this possible.
Meet single man from United States. I believe that three traits to a success relationship are:
Acting with kindness first.
-And-
Being able to forgive and laugh at lifes little differences.
I am a one woman type of guy. There are respectable ways to be kind to eachother...if a match is not made. I do not enjoy drama in my personal life.
Date a soulmate from United States. Hi there. I'm looking for someone who is passionate with everything they do, and is not afraid to be embarrassed. ; ). I am an optimist and believe you can accomplish anything that you set your mind to.
I am an anthropology professor at Cal State University-Chico. I have a great but demanding job that I love, which is a rare thing these days. I love to do outdoor things, such as hiking, camping, photography, (and all things 'sciency'). but am open to anything fun. I look forward to meeting new people and seeing where that goes. Send me an email if you want to chat...
Meet people from Chico, United States. I recently moved to Sacramento and I'm looking to meet new people.
I'd like to meet a woman that enjoys the outdoors. Honesty is important to me and I'd like to meet a good, honest woman -- hopefully someone that enjoys hiking, cycling and everything outside.
I'm a consultant for an actuarial firm and I enjoy writing novels and screenplays.
Date a soulmate from Chico, United States. I am a hopeless romantic with a great appreciation for the outdoors. I wear my heart on my sleeve and am looking for someone who can curl up to a fire after a day of skiing or hiking. I try to live with as little stress as possible and keep things simple. Bicycling, skiing, and flyfishing are passions of mine- I love being outdoors and working out. I will always be up front and tell you what is on my mind. Hopefully, I can find someone to share my life and some common ideals with. I would never try to suede you- you are uniquely you and I will always respect that. Differences can make relationships interesting and enable both to share and learn new things. I am a great listener and love good conversation. Having fun everyday is a priority. I love to travel and experience new things. Sushi bars are a favorite hang out of mine. I do love listening to and watching live music- from Dave Matthews to James Taylor (the music I work out to is much faster). I try to work out as much as possible- I have to stay in shape for my job which I absolutely love.
Meet men and women from Chico, United States. I want somebody who wants the time to be a friend first and then see where things go.
I have met too many who don't look anything like their pictures. If you aren't honest enough to give a real picture what is the point of trying to have a relationship? Be true to yourself and confident in who you are.
The woman I am looking for would be smart, independent, funny. I have been told I have a great sense of humour albiet a bit snarky. I would like to find somebody who has led an interesting life so we can have something in common enough to talk about. My dog alone has traveled to four different countries as has my car. Travelling for the U.S. Army wasn't to the fun vacation spots, but it was at least interesting and rewarding in its own way.
Date a man from California, United States. I don't know how to describe myself. I am a complex and intelligent person with many interests and a very sharp and witty sense of humor. I stay in shape by cycling 3 to 5 times a week and I occasionally race in amateur race events. I am a great cook. I used to be a chef and, at one time, owned my own restaurant. Most of my training is in Italian cuisine, but I can cook almost anything. I am also a very classically trained bartender and have worked in fine dining for almost 20 years. I therefore love entertaining with friends or going out for food and drinks. I am a serious music lover and although I have played guitar most of my life, I don't consider myself a musician. I just love music. I think my balance makes me proud of the person that I am. I can connect with anybody on some level and I think everyone has something that makes them worthwhile. Part of my personality is the nerdy little kid that I used to be, (I love sci-fi), part is my funny and intellectual side, and another part is my responsible hard work ethic. I take pride in things that I do and I try to always find ways to improve.
What am I looking for? I want somebody who shares some interests with me and who likes to laugh and be silly sometimes. I believe physical attraction is important, but ultimately it is personality which makes or breaks a connection. I would like somebody who is easy going and likes to be spontaneous, but who also has motivation and direction in life.
I am very fun and comfortable to be around and I am always up for meeting new interesting people.
Meet men and women from California, United States. --About me. The Cliffs Notes version!--
1) Techie career that sometimes requires overtime.
2) This bullet point is undergoing frequent remodeling as of late due in part to some training burnout, but cycling's a big part of my life. (Note please my alias above.) I try to accomodate other things in my life via a classic strategy: losing sleep and slotting workouts very early in the day. After getting up as silently as possible.
3) I run too, mostly in the wintertime. And hit the gym. After a steady 15 - 20-year diet of nothing but these three exercises I have been informed that other healthy activities exist. I started taking something the kids these days enjoy, called "pilates." But am basically up for anything that does not involve heights. Or sharks.
4) Like going to live theater.
5) Pretty disciplined with the finances.
6) Have a house that is not under water. In this economy, no less. See 5) previous.
7) Like kids a great deal. And the feeling seems to be mutual. I'm an uncle to a few and a virtual uncle to a few more. So if you have one or more, in the house or out of the house, that's cool beans. Just do not want to have (brand new) kids of my own at this stage of my life.
8) Like reading really dry current events news and nonfiction, especially economics texts. Wait a sec, you're dozing off, hang on just a little longer ...
9) Like dancing. How many guys will even dance, except under duress? I'm not a great dancer or a trained dancer or anything like that, but do enjoy it.
10) After 10 years of home ownership (see 6) with an early flurry of contracted and DIY projects to get the place livable, I settled in with little handyman motivation other than the occasional home repair. Thinking I'd move closer to Bidwell Park any year now. But having refinanced at a favorable rate, and getting sick of looking at my back yard, I'm back in home improvement mode again. Replacing a rotted deck, replanting, rethinking the lawn situation, and a hot tub on the way for relaxing.
11) There's a pic up there of me with a beer. I am usually a "one and done" kind of guy, averaging about one drink a week. Every 4 - 6 months on special occasions, it will be more than one drink. That sort of enhanced night out holds less and less interest for me these days, though.
--Who I'm looking for.--
I'll be brief here because there is no magic formula. But there are a few big things to get out of the way first.
1) Religion/spirituality is fine with me. But I'm not religious at all. If you are devoutly religious,or a little religious and it is important to you to be with somebody who feels the same, there's another guy out there for you.
2) Prefer somebody with a career. And that's a pretty broad use of the term, ie, not just a doc, accountant, teacher, or all the normal pursuits one thinks of when "career" is mentioned. Not looking for somebody who's constantly between jobs or looking for full financial support. There's another guy out there for you.
3) Probably somebody who is a morning person or can at least live with a morning person. As trivial as this sounds, being on opposite sleep schedules has made it tough in at least one of my past relationships--we never wanted to be awake at the same time.
4) Does not want any more kids. (Or no kids, if you have no kids now.) See 7) above in the "About Me" section.
5) No smoking.
6) Some sort of physical activity. Doesn't have to be cycling or running. Doesn't have to be a zillion days a week. Just something.
7) Looking for a long-term relationship. With any luck, the last relationship they'll ever want. More power to anybody who's just playing the field, and I'm not going to ask for your hand in marriage on the first date, but the ultimate goal for me is to be able to de-activate this account for good.
Date a soulmate from California, United States. I am a responsible, hard working, committed, trustworthy, loving person that places my partner as a priority in my life and I am looking for the same. I can be serious but enjoy those silly times for the play/laughter. I like to have those special moments to just cuddle up on the couch with the right person and drink some wine, have a bbq with friends, watch a live band, see a movie, or go have an adventurous outing occasionally.
I would like to find a woman that is confident, classy yet sexy, outgoing, and wants to have fun in the relationship. Fitness needs to be a part of your routine as well. Are you caring, respectful, honest, and affectionate? Are you wanting that sincere friend you can confide in and share those days of good, bad, or indifferent?
I am looking forward to having a great friendship, partnership, positive personality, and chemistry/passion.
Meet single man from California, United States. Hmm… describe myself… well let’s see. I’ve been described as funny, smart, outgoing and fun. I enjoy my job and often work too hard, though I've found I am a much happier person all around when I keep my life in balance. I’m always on the go, but also love just kicking back at home with my kids. I enjoy most all types of music. I enjoy cooking and dining out. I enjoy road trips, wine tasting, kayaking on the river, BBQ's with friends, listening to local bands, white water rafting, hikes, biking, and trying new activities. I think for me, it's not about the activity but rather the company that makes the most of whatever you are doing. Spontaneous daycations are definitely something I enjoy. Vacations are great too. Spending time outdoors when the weather is nice and just anything relaxing.
What do I really want? I would like to meet someone that has a good head on their shoulders. Knows where they have been and where they are going. Someone that is young at heart, yet responsible. I think being physically attracted to someone is important. I have a bit of a sacastic side and love to laugh, so someone with a good sense of humor and doesn't take life too seriously is important to me.
When it comes to relationships, I am passionate, loyal and supportive. I am generally accepting and am able to adapt to many situations, and while I don't pretend to have it all figured out I do feel that I'm in a great place in my life. I am looking for a partner who is active, confident and grounded. She must be stable, loyal, passionate and supportive. She must have a good sense of humor, a sense of adventure, and be willing to try new things. Eventually, I would like to settle down, so my ideal woman would want the same.
Why am I on here? That's a pretty good question. I don't have a lot of time to spare and I really don't have the time to meet people so I thought I would try this out and see what happens. I have been single for a while and thought I would get out and see what happens. All I ask is that you be real...don't tell me what you "think" I want to hear. Be true and be honest...just be yourself...and let's get to know each other.
Date someone special from California, United States. Ideal match loves life, exploring, appreciating, creating, experiencing and has the same respect/love/kindness for herself that she has for others.
You cannot recognize something in another that you do not first posess...
Do or Do not, there is no try.
Meet men and women from Chico, United States. Well i work a lot but love to get away and relax every chance i get. I like to work out, eat good and take care of myself, I like to spoil myself and others i care about. I'm a romantic, good lover, a little high maintenance at times, honest, loyal, love to cook, spontaneous, funny, mostly mellow but can get fiesty when provoked. (I do have some Italian in me). I love to travel, see the ocean, animals. I am really down to earth and usually say it like it is. I've been around the world and spent time in Iraq. I've owned my own business for about 14 years and still am learning every day how to be humble. I've been a fighter but just want to be a lover.
I would love to meet someone i could just talk for hours with about anything and everything. Some one you could just lay on top of eachother without a care in the world and fall asleep. Someone who likes to travel, mellow, kind, caring, patient, intelligent. It would be nice if she was a friend and sometimes a naughty girl. Someone that we could both just let the walls down and be yourself with.
