Date women from United States / California / Mar Vista

Date single girl from Mar Vista, United States. I'm an out going girl that enjoys what California has to offer and spends my weeks working hard but spends my evenings and weekends with friends, family, laughing, travel, and all types of exercise indoor and outdoor. I was born and raised in Albuquerque,NM, went to college at University of Missouri. After graduation I moved to NYC and worked in the fashion industry for 4 years. The weather wore on me and I moved to California a little over two years ago. Between my move from NYC to L.A. I backpacked through Europe for four months alone with friends and family visiting me along the way. With that said, I love adventure, traveling and really making the best out of every situation, trip, and whoever you come across. My friends would describe me as funny, loyal, outgoing, active, ambitious and with a good head on my shoulders. I enjoy new experience great restaurants and events. I'm looking for someone that is interested in a partner that lives a full weekend with friends, running, working out, hiking, trips (especially snowboarding trips!) I find loyalty and respect very attractive.

Meet a soulmate from Mar Vista, United States. Chemistry" is like Italian wine. Just when you think you've figured out the rules you realize there aren't any. So Cheers to all of us!
I grew up in Northern CA, went to college in L.A., spent the past 9 years in Seattle and, as of 1/1/2012, it's L.A. round 2. My path has been more winding than straight, but I wouldn't change a thing.
Things I do: Manage an amazing new restaurant, help run two non-profit dog rescues. In Seattle I made my living as a stage actress (very wary to admit to being an actor in this town, and not sure whether that will play a part in my life here). I drive a stick shift, think too much, make lists and then lose or forget them, smile at people on the street even if I'm in a snarky mood, break rules when they don't make sense...
Things I am: sensitive, intense, compassionate, curious, honest, energetic, silly, goofy, bright, crude, smart, smart ass, passionate, loving, loving, really loving...
Things I love: wine, thrift stores, live music outdoors, dawdling, smart movies (preferably ones made with little money and lots of heart), lazy mornings, coffee, carbs, red meat, unexpected connections, being generous of spirit, animals, figuring out how to fix stuff, my pup, dirt roads, a great jukebox, classic country music, laughing so hard I snort, people who ask questions, people who really listen, feeling comfortable and confident being myself, seasons, looking amazing in a $20 dress, live sports, going to the gym, gardening, BBQ, punctuation...I recently discovered Kundalini Yoga and I think it might change my life...
Things I'm not so fond of: pretension, f**ked up distribution of wealth, fundamentalists of any kind, greed, make up, malls/department stores/shopping in general unless it's for groceries, techno music, technology problems that can't be fixed by unplugging and plugging back in, oysters/olives/pepperoni/melted cheese (I know, deal breaker for some people), people who talk and don't listen...
I think we're all a little crazy. The trick is finding the crazy that works with your crazy (think Rib Eye and Syrah, or jeans and Chuck Taylors). And then having some crazy sexual attraction to round things out.
I grew up in a small town (Boonville, CA) and it shows. I care more about who I'm with than what we're doing. I've never been motivated by money or status. If you're turned on by a woman with a title and a desk, I'm not your girl. If you're excited by someone whose biggest priority has always been connecting with and taking care of others, you might think I'm swell. I want to be half of a healthy partnership and hopefully have a family (not immediately-don't worry I won't demand that you spooey in a cup on our first date). Sometimes I'm surprised at how conventional I've turned out..
I could list all the usual cliche "wants" in a partner, but the reality is it all comes down to chemistry and there's no logic or reason in that. I'm a sucker for salt and pepper hair, a well trimmed beard and a man in cowboy boots...or a suit...could those work together? I want to create a life with someone, not just live parallel lives. I want to be someoneРІР‚в„ўs biggest fan and get the same in return. I want butterflies. Here's to the adventure.

Date a woman from Mar Vista, United States. I've been living in LA for 10 years now and I still wouldn't call myself an Angelino. I take advantage of everything LA has to offer, but I still think of myself as a New Yorker.
I'm active - I love hiking, running, taking random day trips, hole-in-the-wall restaurants. But I can also be a homebody - I like to cook, watch movies and playing with my dogs.
I'd like to meet someone who is successful in life. Not someone who is rich, I mean someone who is fulfilled by his work, his friends and his life.
I'm an independent kind of girl. I'm looking for a man who treats me well and takes me out. I believe that a relationship works when two people get together who care about themselves and each other.

Meet someone special from California, United States. About me...
I'm tactfully honest, deep, can hold a mentally stimulating conversation, enjoy novelty, value education, spiritually in tune with the universe. Believe in karma, God, and love. Enjoy watching foreign film. Believe myself to be a goofy borderline nerd. I enjoy outdoor activities, and good conversation with emotionally aware people.
I love dance, travel, food...etc. I also enjoy hanging out with family and friends doing just about anything or nothing.
Who I'm looking for...
A classy gentleman who understands the meaning of respect, and compassion. Must be educated and fit. I prefer men that are around my age but I often meet men much younger than myself because of my youthful look and outgoing nature. I'm okay with younger men as long as you are mature. One thing I've learned in my lifetime is that you can be 50 and act like a 21 year old or be 25 and act like an 80yr old. I'm not looking for either extreme. Balance is essential!

Date a woman from United States. I'm originally from Germany and have lived in LA for about 13 years. I love the outdoors: hiking, camping, traveling, rock climbing. I love nature and need to get out of town occasionally just to recharge my batteries. I can really say that this year I made the best of summer...went rafting, kayaking, tried surfing, lot's of climbing, sailing, horse back riding, several camping trips. You can already tell, I like to be active outside. Wanna join me? I also enjoy good food and wine, I garden, like art shows, first Friday on Abbott Kinney, BBQs, and I share it all with a great group of friends.
One of my great passions is flowers and I made a job out of it. I run my own business, doing flower designs for events and private clients, and at times itРІР‚в„ўs very involving. It's a responsibility I embrace, because I love what I do. Also love to be my own boss and the freedom that comes with it.
I would describe myself as a bit of a hybrid who embraces life fully. ThereРІР‚в„ўs also a part of me that forgot to grow up, and likes to run and play and be silly sometimes. I just need to find someone, who will poke and tickle me and teach me how to skateboard, when that mood comes up. But no worries, I can be as serious as a rock as well.
I love kids and hope a family (yours or mine or ours) is in the stars for me.
IРІР‚в„ўve got a thing for men that are a bit versatile themselves -- nature-lovers with a sophisticated twist. I fall for guys who can pitch a tent and make a fire, but can get just as excited about dressing up for a night out in town. Cooking skills also totally impress me. I love to eat, so that's a huge plus. :) I like people that are passionate about something and are involved in something they love. Depth and complexity, emotional honesty, a healthy sense of self, and manly men who nurture their soft spots is what I'm looking for. A little goofiness doesn't hurt by the way.
I don't have many fears when it comes to relationships. I am not afraid of being vulnerable and making a truthful, loving commitment to my mate. Hopefully you value these things, too.
P.S. Somebody just posted this about German girls on Facebook and I thought it's funny and so true: Tough women come from Texas. Sweet women come from Georgia. Prissy women come from New York. THEN there's them German Women! Fire and ice in our blood. We can ride a 4 wheeler. Be a PRINCESS. Throw a left hook. Pack heat. Bake a cake. Fish with the boys, ride a horse and kick major a**, Love with passion & if we have an opinion, you're gonna hear it!
If you write me, tell me, when you feel most alive.

Meet a woman from Mar Vista, United States. I like to spend time with my family and friends in my free time. On weekends, I try to get in a hike with my dogs exploring one of the many trails around LA. Other favorite pastimes are going to museums, live music, dining out, and cooking. Swimming, yoga, and tennis are my current favorite exercises.

Date a woman from California, United States. I'm the type that has an open nature, is usually good at putting people at ease and hopefully making them laugh. I'm independent in my thinking and love learning a little bit about everything to feed my intellectual curiosity. I'm generally light hearted/FUN (I hear that one a lot) and usually don't connect very well with "type A" personalities. It's important to me to stay fit, usually by running around with my dog, bike riding, yoga, etc. I'm a bit of a television/film geek and am very passionate about my career. I'm also pretty good at scrabble (correct spelling/grammar turn me on ;) Other passions of mine include; art, music, travel, good wine really good dark chocolate and great food (discovering new restaurants is huge!).
My type of man is sincere, confident and down to earth, a gentleman... He is kind, clever, funny and accomplished. He is curious about the world with a fun-loving nature. He is secure enough to pursue me, bright enough to be somewhat non-conformist in his thinking and choices. His baggage fits in the overhead compartment, and of course, he's someone who I will laugh a lot with. Most importantly, he is AVAILABLE to spend time/effort on me -- I'm pretty sure I'm worth it.

Meet a woman from California, United States. I enjoy a wide variety of music, art, traveling, meeting interesting people and visiting open houses on Sundays. I am optimistic and adore people with very positive attitude in general though I often find cynical jokes are funny and clever. I am always hungry to feed my curiosity and sometimes become indecisive when I am eager to have everything in front of me.
If you are right kind of interesting person, you probably will find me simple and easy to please. What makes me happy....quality music, fine wine and great food, aged scotch whiskey, smell of roses....
I am a pretty good sport so I would go beach walk in bare foot if you ask me to but I hope you would not to expect me to go hiking trip with you. I am not much of an out door type so I prefer walking inside of museums or strolling on Abbot kinney.
A romance could be fleeting but I would like to meet someone who I could share a warm friendship that lasts for a long time.

Date a soulmate from California, United States. (Trying this site one more time, hopefully this time around it shall work like a charm)
I am originally from North Carolina but have lived in Los Angeles since 1982. I love animals, I have 2 big dogs and 2 cats. I love to cook and entertain - I am a outgoing, adventuresome, very giving and caring individual. I love life and try to stay positive. Looking to meet a considerate, attractive, honest, intelligent, articulate and sexy evolved man that truly wants to meet someone of substance and wants a relationship.

. I would describe myself as unconventional, smart, positive, liberal and fun. A kind person and an adventurer, something of a hip hippie, I guess. A little crazy. I get excited about life and what's ahead.
I grew up in Southern California after moving around a lot as a kid (not military), then moved to Boston (met future husband) and then to NYC. And back to LA. We had a good life for 15 years, and a great family.
And I remember now how tough it is to meet people who are smart, interesting and FUN -- so here goes...
I still have a great life, a big life, and a civil relationship with my ex.
I love my kids and my friends. We go camping, to concerts (including COACHELLA and Outside Lands) and dancing. We love to cook, eat and drink. Alot. I am a rower, paddler and hiker and want to do more of that. (I have two girls, 16 and 19, those are photos of them and my friends camping...) I have a creative, good job that is sometimes insane.
I'm not a wimp.
What to say about who I'm looking for? Someone to hang out with, laugh with, love. Dance with, have that breathless feeling when I see you. Get you. Have you get me.
My dream man? He's bold. He's social and funny, in good shape. He can be bald or have hair (long is good). He's creative, he is DIFFERENT. Must love music (especially rock and roll), reading, food, kids, OH YEAH dogs and cats. He can talk and kiss. He's optimistic and romantic. Curiosity and communication are essential. He is willing to risk being out here in the world and doesn't mind the messiest of life
I'm pretty much like all that, too. I believe in love and affection, and want a lover (THAT'S WHY I'M HERE). You don't have to be exactly like me, but not interested in changing me. I'm 57 and still have long hair and wear eyeliner.
I think a man and woman can be together and still be who they are -- you just have to talk about it, be honest, courageous and be kind.
But I am looking forward to DOING things with somebody who I look forward to seeing. Enough of being in gorgeous interesting romantic places and situations without romance. The list is too familiar and long but I like to do lots of things (except maybe shoot guns and play golf) but mainly I want that buzz of excitement, lust, love.
I'm ready.

. I like to get on a stage and strip! Just kidding! I really do like to dance and enjoy the outdoors (hiking, cycling). I enjoy going to the movies, going to the theater, enjoying concerts and art exhibits.
The man of my dreams is mentally and physically strong, has solid moral values, cares about his physical appearance and maintains an organized and appealing environment.
Someone who is just as comfortable camping as he is relaxing at the Four Seasons hotel. I am looking for someone with a sense of humor, an open mind, and a desire to take a chance on love.
Although technology is wonderful, I would like to get to know you over the phone instead of through email. If your are interested please send me your phone number so we can chat!
My ideal first date would be enjoying good conversation over a good meal . Perhaps followed by a movie or music and dancing. I have an adventurous spirit and enjoy exploring places that are "off the beaten path."

. Upbeat, positive, love to laugh and smile. My close friends say that I have lots of energy, ideas and dreams and I am one of those people who makes things happen. I am a people person. I love to be with talented, intelligent and spiritual people, to cook and entertain in my home and to share who I am with those I love.
I enjoy travel and the spirit of adventure – I recently returned from China. I love the performing arts, music , dining out and dancing.
I am physically fit and enjoy many outdoor activities – biking, skiing, long walks on the beach as well as frequent workouts at the gym.
I want to share the joys of my life with a lovable, secure and energetic man who has a zest for life and wants to live every day to its fullest.
