Date someone special from California, United States. Not feeling new to the desert any longer. Lawyer. That means I am very busy making money on other people losing it, which sucks. Not entirely sure about this but willing to give it a go. Am active, like outdoors, love the water and riding my motorcycle. Like non drama, fun women who are positive. Really. That being said if your idea of first, second or third date conversation material consists of your how much of a loser your ex is or was I am probably not for you. I get that we all have had a bad relationship or three, four, etc. but save that information for a few months down the road. If it consumes you chances are there isn't much hope for a new relationship. Life is short...why use all that energy being mad?
Think I have this figured out now. I think those little boxes they make you check at the beginning are pretty specific but thought I would expand on my choices.
I have done the long distance relationship thing before and it didn't work for me. I would like to meet women who live in my area. Hope no one takes offense but I am not interested in hooking up on the weekends only. I want to hook up all the time! That sounds bad, huh? Well, for fear of sounding girly, I want to have a real relationship. Alright, that's the long distance thing now for my next request.
I appreciate a women who takes good care of herself but am not into dramatically, surgically altered people. To each his own but if your eyelids don't close entirely when you sleep due to repeated lifting, your lips have visible lumps due to injections, your chest has been augmented to the point of appearing painful I am not your guy. Makes no sense to me to do that to yourself. Don't get me wrong i am fine with enhancements but am not interested in the extreme.
Apparently this diatribe will change as we go along...I am open to all kinds of people but I am not open to people who aren't truthful. In my humble opinion if you lie straight out of the gate in your profile you probably do it all the time. in my work I spend a great deal of energy deciphering the bs from the real thing and won't deal with it on here. Not unless you want to pay my hourly rate!
Meet single man from California, United States. Looking for my "Wingman of Mayhem".
Someone who can be an equal and share in the many wonderful things life has to offer. A good woman with integrity and honesty at the top of the list of personal traits. Someone who understands what a commitment means and has the life skills and sense to be honest and speak their mind.
I am a very hard working dedicated person and I live life to it’s fullest. I laugh often and am very optimistic. I have a great, maybe sarcastic, sense of humor (some would say disturbing). I have a 9 year old daughter that means the world to me and lives with me part time.
When I have free time I enjoy reading a Christopher Moore book, taking a long ride on my Harley to parts unknown, listening to music from my punk rock days, (X, Iggy Pop, Nirvana, Television, No Means No, Afghan Whigs, Beastie Boys, The Clash, Husker Du, The Pixies, etc) and even some newer stuff, ( Kings of Leon, Elliot Smith, The Black Keys, Band of Skulls, Radiohead, Weezer, Manchester Orchestra, etc.) going to the gym to work on my slim girlish figure, and practicing/playing guitar or ukulele, even though I suck at it. I always try to keep busy doing something. Oh, and I LOVE to cook. Entertaining/hosting gatherings and trying out new recipes is my favorite way to relax.
Date a soulmate from California, United States. New to southern CA. Others describe me as attractive, very bright, a conversationalist, kind, insightful, "solid," and often sarcastic. I have been accused of being sophisticated and depending on my mood may take offense about that! Often the best travel experiences involve accomodations that have all the characterstics of "budget!" - reed hut, anyone? Many who know me well find it surprising that I am a bit of an introvert. I play nicely with other children and may be the last to leave the sandbox at the end of recess. While I have my opinions, I like to learn about those of others. I believe the ability to discuss nearly any subject is a virtue. My friends' wives and girlfriends like me and introduce me to their girlfriends [yes those that they like, smartass ; )]. I have been described as edgy at times, impulsive at times, and stubborn at times. I have a diverse group of friends. They are interesting and intelligent and most know how to let their hair down and have a good time. Oh, and speaking of hair - I have a good full head of it! I think children are great and, perhaps because there is a lot of kid in me, we generally get along well. Big fan of dogs, too - good judges of character. I sound quite serious. Often I am. Intellectually I crave stimulation and good conversation. That said, I can be a silly, engaging, and self-deprecating with the right company. My favorite indulgence is foreign travel without an itinerary. I am looking for a bright and warm woman with whom to share time, laughs and, ideally a lasting relationship. Preferably she will have some defined interests, intellectual curiosity, and she must have a great personality. Yes, I'll be honest, I like attractive women - chemistry is important. Although I like going out, I also look forward to spending time at home with someone great, perhaps with wine and a fireplace. What is the deal with the “jeans and a tux? or jeans and little black dress” If you are an adult you probably own and should be able to properly wear both! And, btw, you have to tie your own bow tie or what’s the point?! Women, I love your sundresses and agree about the importance of the right little black dress. Things I believe: wine with dinner is good, it is important to compliment and complement each other, being affectionate is sexy, you dance with the one that brung ya, our society still isn't a level playing field, Americans are more privileged and wasteful than they realize, any ice cream with caramel or chocolate rocks, travel is the best classroom, the best giving is anonymous, some idealism helps us strive for better. Things I don't believe in: young children with speech impediments as advertising spokespersons, eliminating butter from your diet, double caramel soy mocha lattes, nice cars as "investments", pursuit of individualism at all costs, herbal-only remedies, sacrificing family time for sq. ft. Oh yeah, I don’t believe that you can really get to know somebody other than in person. Not into exchanging endless e-mails. I enjoy the outdoors and my share of athletic pursuits; however, I am not a competitive triathlete, expert skier, or backcountry survivalist. To each her own, we are probably not a match if your partner ideal includes: extreme extroverts, a man who refers to everybody as "dude," or somebody in "the industry." I am looking for a woman who wants a partner and to enjoy each other's company. She should hopefully agree with or find tolerably charming some of my opinions. I want to hear your's too!
Meet a woman from California, United States. I'm looking for someone who knows how to enjoy life, someone lighthearted and fun. My friends would describe me as funny, trustworthy and reliable.

I'm very passionate about animals and the well being of animals, love dogs and I have one. I would like to meet someone who is not materialistic or shallow. I believe that it is important to build a friendship with someone first. My perfect match would be someone who is kind and considerate. Someone who can give an equal amount of respect that is given. Likes having a two way conversation. Knows how to hold himself in high regard. If you are not seeking a serious relationship please do not respond to my profile, don't mean to be harsh, but I am not a sex object. Hail to the Eurythmics, I Need a Man.

ABOUT ME
I'm down-to-earth, mellow, easy going and highly allergic to DRAMA BS! I prefer simplicity to anything complicated. I believe I have a great sense of humor and love to laugh. I enjoy cooking, but not for one. I prefer listening to music and conversation over watching tv, but love snuggling up to watch a good movie. I enjoy fine dining as much as a picnic on the beach. I enjoy being active outdoors, except when we're in the triple digits, then I'm off to the beach as much as possible. I'd rather be doing something like biking, hiking or kayaking than going to the gym. I love traveling and plan on doing more of it. I appreciate everything I have and have gone through, and my family, friends and dogs mean the world to me.
WHO I'M LOOKING FOR
Well, there's this guy...And when I see him gives me butterflies, And when he looks into my eyes makes me blush, And when he talks makes me smile, And when he laughs makes me laugh, And when he kisses my lips takes my breath away, And when I think of him makes me happy, And when we're apart...he misses me.
