Date someone special from California, United States. I finally gave in and decided to try Match.com. My ideal match would be a lady who is Attractive, Smart, Funny, Employed, and most of all Faithful....
I am not going to lie and say that I am perfect because I'm not. What I can say is that I have lots of good qualities but seem to have a problem with making the correct choices in Women.
Who knows, maybe my luck will change.....
Meet single man from Hidden Valley Lake, United States. I am basically an easygoing person and looking for the same. I value honesty and integrity. I'm a hard working person, maybe too much and am looking to take more time to enjoy life. I enjoy the mountains and the coast equally . Dinners out or at home with a special someone. In the winter, sitting in front of the fire watching a movie or just a good conversation while enjoying the warmth of the fire is a great way to spend the evening. I like camping , hiking, and just being outside in general. I'm not into the bar scene but do like to go dancing once in a while. I like animals, but not too crazy about reptiles or some other exotic pets. I try to keep up with current events but don't have time to read any major novels. I have a good sense of humor but also know when to be serious. Basically, I'm HUMAN .... and looking for someone who really understands what that means. Although the pictures of me are now a few years old, I still look pretty much the same. My hair is a little shorter and my beard is a little longer, both by choice.
Date someone special from California, United States. Hello - and thanks for stopping by. I really am humble and kind - honestly so - and I look for simple ways to be helpful. Hope you are much the same. :)
By the way, the pics are mostly about things I love to do, not to show off as one lady on Match said to me recently in an email. (Except for the yard work - can't say I love it - but I do it anyway as needed!)
Like a typical Sagittarius I find humor in almost everything. And isn't it funny how we all like much the same things - I bet most of this applies to YOU also: “to laugh / dance / dine out / read good books / take a walk on the beach / enjoy a glass of wine” and such. Me too - not that it tells you much about me - so I'll add that I'm a playful, happy, smart, strong, honestly good guy. And frankly it seems like there are a LOT OF OTHER GOOD GUYS out there as well. Wow. This should be easy for you girls!
Yet this is NOT exactly a trip to the shopping mall (I'll take that one, please, but add hair to it and drop twenty pounds!) so I am making my best attempt to convey what is real about me, and what I hope to find in YOU. :)
My work: I own an internet marketing company and I do OK. Love it if you have some interest in graphics, photography, internet stuff - but not super important. Chemistry, connection and heart are what counts.
As for my basic attitude - I enjoy most everyone and everything, most all the time. I especially love kids of all ages, dogs, flying and rivers. (Regarding the last two, check out the pics!)
I often find myself delighted over small things, and when others don’t I wonder why not? It is all so amazing to me – life and everything about it is such a gift. Even the tough stuff. Ram Dass said, after his stroke, that it was “fierce grace”. Wow. I love that guy.
So Beautiful (and I mean that - EVERY WOMAN is beautiful deep in her soul), I hope YOU ALSO are playful, happy and smart.
I hope you like to be held, to snuggle and to hold me. I hope you like unexpected kisses and roses, and a night out on the spur of the moment. I hope you will cry in my arms if you need to, and let me do the same.
I hope you are sweetly and generously passionate, with total abandon. I hope you will love that about me!
Oh yeah, and I hope you EMAIL me! All emails will be answered, unless the sender lives far, far away. Fair?
Here is some more mushy stuff: I would love waking up every morning to say "Good Morning, Beautiful!" to my lady. And she might say "Hey handsome!!" Sure, the bodies will wear out and may not look as good in later years, but real beauty is within.
And this might be important: I have been with just two women in the last 30 years. I’m not a playboy, not a player. I’m most comfortable in a committed long-term relationship and I’m willing to develop it over time. My guess is that you feel the same because that is how love grows.
Nothing but love makes sense. Nothing else matters. Nothing else is real.
"Love is the answer, whatever the question" is a truth for all time and eternity.
So in closing, I’m real. I'm sure YOU ARE TOO! If nothing else lets at least share a few notes about how this on-line dating thing is working out. What a trip! Thanks again for stopping by, Beautiful! Bye for now. Patrick
Meet people from California, United States. I'm a bit off beat I read voraciously several books each month. The last two were Pattern Recognition a novel by William Gibson, and What Liberal Media by Eric Alterman. now I'm working on a spy thriller. My politics would give Rush Limbaugh a heart attack. I really like the arts but my resume includes things like Special Forces Officer, Deep Sea Diver, Civil Engineer as well as having published a CD Rom Ballet Dictionary. I love all sorts of things associated with water I swim, I put a hot tub in last year that measures 7 feet around by 5 feet deep so that I could do watsu ( a type of massage done in warm water) in the winter without having to heat my pool every time I wanted to do oneSomeone fun, sexy, funny, social. Someone to be a partner and companion at a formal affair,a mud bath or...
Date men and women from Hidden Valley Lake, United States. Hey so, my name is Alicia (not pronounced like Alisha) I'm 23, I'm Mexican american and I live in lake county, ca. I recently became single about three months ago, and am looking for someone to have fun with and share my time with. I guess I'm the type of girl to come home from work and relax with a book or maybe a little tv, take the dogs for a walk or just play some video games.(currently stuck on zelda skyward sword) I like to cook dinner but its not as worth while to cook just for myself. My dad is a chef so i get my tips from him lol... I don't drink much but I'm not against it. I just quit smoking cigarettes, so id like my partner to not be a smoker.(Herb is A OK) Also, I have a hard time with partying and craziness; its just not for me. Im looking for someone kind and caring, someone who is generally a happy person; I cant stand it when anger issues get in the way of a relationship. Pretty much im a chill person and I do well with chill people. I guess I don't get out too often, but I like to get out of the house on the weekends even if its just to go the beach for an hour. I like bike rides, maybe a hike if not too intense! I am always open to new things and adventures, im just not usually the first person to come up with the idea! Oh yeah, I have two dogs and a cat from previous relationships. Its a little tough with the animals by myself but they are mine and I love them completely :)) If you want to get to know me, don't hesitate!
Meet people from United States. When I have free time I like to be active doing something, especially if it includes the outdoors. I love to camp, hike and explore new places. I gravitate more to the mountains, but also like the coast. I enjoy city life too-traveling, museums, live music, movies. I like to cook and entertain with friends. I've been known to host a friendly game of poker every so often! Travel is also important to me. I try to take a trip somewhere new every year or so. I went to the Galapagos earlier this year. My personality is more laid back and easy going. But I am decisive and can be a little stubborn sometimes. I'm open-minded and kind, I don't gripe/gossip about other people. I know what I like and how I want things to be and strive to make it happen. Not in a controling way, but when I set my sights on an idea, I want to take action. Life is too short so I don't let the grass grow too high! I'm adventurous, yet reliable and responsible. Due to my career, I am a professional so I taper it down appropriately. When getting to know someone, I'm reserved, nice, and well-mannered. I'm wanting to meet someone who can be my best friend and partner in life. I don't really expect a crack of thunder and instant chemistry the first time me meet, just enough to make me want to know you better. Send me a note or wink and we'll go from there.
Date people from California, United States. I am an open-minded, grounded, easy-going, intelligent, artistic/creative, adventurous, kind, loving, and positive woman.
I like literature, art, film, plays, etc and can talk easily on these or whatever subject you are interested in. (Well, if it is sports I may just a lot of annoying questions....)
I am a devoted yogini and certified Yoga Teacher. I meditate. I challenge myself regularly. Eat pure and healthy. I believe in the Joy de vivre associated with connectedness with the physical body. As a grad student, I read and study a lot. I have been called "fiercely independent" by men (as though it is a bad thing) but also described by men as "very feminine". I see no contradiction in this and prefer a traditional man and a gentleman.
I feel to be complete in myself. But there is not true balance without a man to be my friend and my lover.
I prefer tall men. Thick over thin. An ability to make people (me) laugh is the sexiest quality in a man. I have no tolerance for emotional instability. I tend to be intolerant of illiteracy, as well. I really enjoy a man who is confident, cool, bright, funny. And ultimately, it is about chemistry.
I believe you love who you love, and whatever way that works, works. It's worth it. Always.
A date is when you take a girl out and try to get her to like you while you both detemine if you want to sleep together (at some point). :-0. It is not an interview in which you ascertain her net worth, if she will be a good cook for you, or how perfectly she will fit into your life exactly as it is right now. A relationship in my mind is not a business arrangement, nor a paradigm of maximum convenience, but a condition of love and mutually enjoyed companionship.
I do not reply to winks, illiterate messages, or if you have no picture posted. Really.
Please do not contact me if you are not sufficiently motivated to meet in person. Lighten up. Take a girl out. Take a chance. Good luck!
Thanks for reading. Please write if my profile piques your interest.
Meet someone special from Hidden Valley Lake, United States. Welcome to my world, :):):)
So what can I tell you about me? I am different in many ways then the average girl, but you will figure that out when you meet me.
I can blend easily into most situations but I am actually shy deep down inside but I cover it up pretty well. I make my living in outside sales and being social and positive is all part of the game. I am fortunate because I can work anywhere in Northern California, usually from home, Bay Area or Santa Rosa.
I prefer being in a loving relationship but will settle for casual dating and a good laugh in the meantime. I have been divorced for about a year now and ready to move on with my life. I love the outdoors and enjoy golfing very much, I am still learnig but getting better. I really enjoy any card game, texas hold em or poker is always fun.
I enjoy all types of music but mainly rock n roll and the blues. I will be doing alot of traveling in the near future because for the first time in my life my children are gone. Freedom! I have the option to move anywhere now so the sky is the limit where I will land.
What am I looking for? My best friend and lover, I miss him. Somone who is emotionally available and is seeking a long term relationship. I seem to be attracted to the masculine man. I repect all religions and the older I get I seem to follow "one God many paths" rule.
I like to eat healthy most of the time, love to cook and I do enjoy a good bottle of wine. I keep in shape, at least I try. I try to keep my house clean, but probably wouldn't work out with a man that wants everything in its place all the time. I respect my ex and wish him well, people grow apart.
I am not looking for drama, married men or casual sex. I do believe in romance and keeping it spicy with that special partner. I am very affectionate and need that in my life. Planning weekend getaways, surprises are all part of the fun.
Not sure what more to say accept I hope you find that special person this time around and live happily ever after. Or at least have a few laughs in the meantime. :) Cheers

Meet men and women from Hidden Valley Lake, United States. I am not a big socialite, but do enjoy smaller gatherings with friends. I like spending time at home doing some yard work - my dogs like their daily walks - I enjoy my friends from church, the garden club, craft club and at the local coffee shop.

Date a woman from United States. My life keeps combining science, art and metaphysical threads. Now I am the director of nursing at a mental health rehab facility that incorporates spiritual needs and the arts in the healing process. I am also seeing therapy clients there.
Knowledge of anatomy from working in the operating room contributes to and reverberates in my sculpture and art. So does my life long interest in Jungian psychology and dreams.
Anthropology, ethnic studies, psychology, world travel and familiarity with world cultures provide a larger framework for marriage and family therapy. Besides that I have nine brothers and sisters and about 60 people in my family now but do not get to see them often.
Early exposure to music feeds my three dimensional expressiveness in
dance. Study of dreams,dreaming and consciousness contribute to creative visualization of my life and my art.
Graduate school in marriage and family therapy propelled my writing skills. I read many kinds of books and magazines and write for work and pleasure.
Botany, gardening, herbal medicine, nutritional knowlege inform my cooking. My son who died a few years ago taught me even more about cooking and combining foods and flavors.
Environmental concerns and love of peace drive my energy use and personal desire for a new infrastructure. I would like to have a partner who wants to go greener. I love to watch the Green Planet on cable TV.
I am looking for a man who keeps my interest intellectually and emotionally. Not looking for the strong silent type but one who can cope with companionable silences. Someone who is self directed but interested in sharing life with a real friend and a love that comes from mutual respect and admiration.
Travel with an archeological focus is something I'd love to share. I like hiking, long walks, especially in London, hanging out in antique shops, book stores and having fun with someone who elevates the mundane to either the ridiculous or the sublime.. Someone who finds humor and adventure in things that go wrong
