Date men and women from United States / California / Pasadena, 33 year old

Date someone special from Pasadena, United States. I've been in Pasadena for about a year now. I moved here from Dallas/ Fort Worth area, but I am originally from Oklahoma. That is where most of my family is, so I guess it will always be home even though I left about 10 years ago. My closest friends would say that I am intelligent, funny, adventurous, compassionate, devout, and headstrong.
I had a friend tell me I was eclectic, and I suppose that is true. I had an elite job in the military, but I have also spent a lot of time in caretaking jobs and volunteer experiences i.e.., nurse's assistant in hospice home, caretaker of a boy with cerebral palsy, volunteer at orphanage, etc. I am a graduate student at a seminary, so I am intelligent and spiritual/ religious, but I am also simple, easygoing, and given to all sorts of fun and adventure. I love to travel and immerse myself in different cultures, but I like just hanging out at home sometimes and playing games. I like deep conversations about history, art, current events, philosophy or whatever, but I could be happy living my life out on a beach, secluded from the world. Fast food has always been the mainstay of my diet, but I am learning to enjoy making increasingly complex meals at home. In short, I'm curious about life and everything, always looking to grow, but simple and easily contented.
I am looking for a long term relationship; but, to start I am looking to make friends and have good conversations, laughs, and fun.

Meet single man from Pasadena, United States. Heard friends talk about this site, now here I am trying it out for couple months. If you are reading this then it probably means I passed the picture viewings. Me… Ambitious, competitive, funny, athletic am a people person . I am always staying busy with work, sports or having a good time on the weekends. I see the glass half full not half empty. I love to travel and staying in shape. Some of my travels consist of a few parts in Asia, Central South America ,Caribbean and all over the US. I’m hoping to hit Europe for 2012 Olympics to watch a friend compete. I am a pretty smart guy. Business owner for 12 yrs. Grew up in a loving family and am grateful for that. I am a student of life for life. Always learning and always improving to be a better friend, father, lover and future husband for someone out there. I am a sponge for information. I could listen to talk radio or news all day. I always want to know everything and be good at the things that interest me. I am the type that if I don’t know how to do something I will buy books, videos, do research and/ or take classes if need be. Good examples are… I take photography classes, my book shelves are filled with business books from marketing, accounting to management, I sometimes take dance classes cause I hate being Colombian and sucking at dancing salsa. Lol.. Ive made mistakes in life, my mistakes and life lessons have made me the strong person I am today.
My Ideal match would be someone intelligent, someone that cares about themselves, that likes to stay in shape and knows where they are going in life or is already there. Someone supportive that helps me be a better person. I want someone that has their priorities in line, likes to go out and have fun but deff not a party girl. Im not going to lie in regards to physical appearance but it is always a plus. :)

Date people from Pasadena, United States. I am an easy going person looking for the same in a partner. Motivation is important, and laziness is a big turn-off, but achievement is useless without the ability to appreciate it.
I enjoy being in new surroundings and meeting new people. I do not like to spend time with people who are afraid of the world around them. With a little effort, we can all control our own reality.
I would love to find someone that I share a deep connection, intense attraction, mutual respect, and similar goals, but I enjoy meeting people regardless of our romantic compatibility. Besides, that is a lot of pressure for a first date. So lets just meet for drinks and conversation without expectations... at least for the first time we meet.

Be proud of who your with, and make them feel it everyday.

Meet people from California, United States. I am looking for someone who knows what they want and is not about playing games. I love road trips and enjoy going to baseball games. I am the type of woman who won't mind staying in every now and then to watch a movie or hang out with friends. I enjoy spending time with friends and family. I can also stay in and play some video games. I like the little things so if you remember something I said to you from our first conversation it means you were paying attention. I also keep track of the little things that make your day.

Date a soulmate from California, United States. If I try to describe myself, IРІР‚в„ўd say I can be summed up in the following, "You should dance. Sing. Buy extravagant things ever now and again. Make time for love and good food. And take a nap when it all gets too much." (Marilyn Brant)
Life has been kind to me and I’m lucky to enjoy a wonderful life with a great family, close friends, and a rewarding career. I’m someone who truly appreciates my life and loves living it to the fullest. I enjoy spending time outdoors, like hitting the trails at Eaton Canyon or Griffith Park. I especially love a hike in the mornings when the air is fresh and crisp. I live near the foothills so I get an amazing view of the mountains on my daily runs (I do about 20mi a week). At the core, I’m a pretty simple girl. I’m equally comfortable in 4” stilettos as I am in running shoes or flip flops. I was raised to be someone with integrity, positivity, honesty, and always a mindfulness of others. I like great conversation, lots of laughter (a must), love music, the Getty (my fav place in LA), or just chilling with a good book in the park. My career, which I find pride and reward in, is important to me, but I believe strongly in relaxing well outside of it. As such, I love to draw, paint, do photography, and dance. What’s life without balance, no?
So, what am I looking for? The very basics…honesty, kindness, curiosity, humor (you gotta be able to laugh with me), and most importantly a willingness to share your life (and build one) with me. I'm looking for a relationship and the best ones are those where both parties are happy with themselves but know they're better sharing it with a partner. Life can get pretty crazy sometimes and I'm looking for that wonderful man to share in all the fun and madness. =)
So if any of the above hits the right chord with you, drop me a note cause IРІР‚в„ўd love to hear from you. Until then, thanks for taking the time to read about me and best of luck to you.
PS. I do kindly ask that you please respect my preferred age range (31-40). I certainly appreciate the interest, but am realistic enough to know that this is the range that works for me now.

Meet someone special from California, United States. Something about myself:
Originally from the far east of Asia, am here for 7 years now, to meet my prince charming, o.k not really; was here visiting my aunt in NY, stayed for a couple of months working under the table in the Chinatown of Manhattan, then moved to LA because I heard there are a lot more fun here which I gotta agree (the food, the people, the weather, etc). I am now working for a medical lab in the sales and marketing receiving full benefits (no more working under the table), so don't worry, I am not illegal alien.
I am a pretty low key person myself, meaning I don't like to make a big fuss about small things. I believe there will be times when 2 persons have disagreement and conflicts, but I have learned that commitment, forgiveness, and letting go of the drama fast are what keep the relationship last. There is no such thing as no drama, but how we deal with it really matter the most.
Intention of joining Match.com:
Finding my special someone to build a serious relationship with
Who Am I looking For:
You are honest, trustworthy, attractive to my eyes and with an awesome personality that wow me. I promise that I will return the same too.
P.S. A guy asked me how come all my pics look the same here. Well, I just cut my hair a couple of months ago, so I don't want to confuse you by mixing up my long hair pics with my short hair pics. I will keep my short hair for a while for now.

Date men and women from California, United States. I spend every day with a bunch of teenagers, so I'm pretty patient and have a good sense humor, but am sometimes starved for adult conversation. I'm a drama teacher at an arts focused school so I get to play for a living and work with creative people on a daily basis. And I'm happiest when I feel like the day isn't a long list of "to dos." I like staying up late at night, even in the middle of the week. On weekends, I like wandering around the tree lined streets of my neighborhood, meeting friends for lunch, and visiting family. I love traveling, seeing plays and concerts, and watching movies. My favorite cities are San Diego (my hometown), Washington, DC, and NYC, but I'm always excited to see someplace new. I'm an unapologetic baseball fan, despite favoring a team that loses more often than it wins. I'm a bit traditional and still love having the door held open for me. I want to meet someone who likes finding that hole-in-the-wall restaurant that's amazing, but closes when the waves are good, goes to baseball games to actually watch the game, and enjoys the arts as much as I do. And if he also has a good sense of humor, that would be great too, because I love to laugh.

Meet a woman from California, United States. About her:
My personality is fun, spunky, and sexy and once you get to know me, you may just want to keep me around. I enjoy working out at the gym, yoga, running, going to the movies, trying out new places to eat, and spending time with friends and family. I like all music; however, I am not a big fan of country.
What she is looking for:
I am looking for a confident guy who has a good sense of humor. Sarcasm is a plus! You must have strong family values and good manners. You enjoy getting dressed up when going out for a night on the town and are just as comfortable in jeans and flops when hanging out. You enjoy going to the movies and would come shopping with me from time to time (w/o making it a big deal). You like trying out new restaurants, going to events downtown (from ballgames to plays), and drinking wine (so I don't have to finish an entire bottle myself). You are respectful, loving, and want to be a father some day.
Goal:
I want honesty and respect and above all else to fall in love with a great guy!

Date people from United States. I am a cool and easy going chick.. athletic and fun-- always ready to find out whats around the next corner. I am not the type to pack up a tiny dog in my huge bag and head out in my animal print leggings for a day at the mall.. or the tanning salon (obviously being naturally tan I really don't need that anyway- duh!) I'm more likely to be found watching a football game..with wing sauce on my shirt or a burger in my mouth tail gating.. hiking or running.. jumping.. or telling some well placed fart joke. Or ripping on your friends with you at a bbq.
I am Looking for someone who won't kill me on the first date.. second is ok or send me dirty pics taken from your iphone in the bathroom of wallmart.. Jesus wouldn't want you to do that and neither would I. Plus I will send them to all my friends.
I'm looking for more than toot it and boot it (sorry) I have been spending some time polishing my domestic skills.. Like cooking, laundry, ummm and junk like that... Hahahahah... That's a total lie! But I'm not a hit it and quit it gal.. So keep moving if your screen name is anything blank-blank-69-for you.
To make money I work as an architect, like the dad from the Brady bunch only less cool. I spend my days designing theme park interiors. Everything from land of the lost themed restaurants to interiors that look like something the hulk might live in. Art school prepared me well for random brain fart thinking required to come up with some weird stuff on a daily basis. I also am coaching rugby in public schools part time. I am a combination of art girl and full out jock. dudes that lack the sports gene.. Have no fear- I don't require you to love sports.
Finally Here is where I put the disclaimer: I am HEAVILY tattooed. Yup. Your friends at the country club will see them. No they do not say any dudes name, my name or babies name, nor "thug life" in old English font... But they are there.. This has been your public service announcement.
Fin.

Meet a soulmate from United States. I tend to be many things at once. Most of us are, I imagine. I am earnest and light-hearted. I am organized and all over the place. I tend to swing from quiet introverted moments to ones of exuberant interaction. Food, language, music, family, my dog, art, the right pair of shoes, my front porch . . . all those things make me happy and matter a lot. Some more so than others. I get along well with others. I get along well with myself, most importantly.
I am from Pasadena, but have lived in Maine, Idaho, New York, and other places in-between. I have gradually made my way back, doing school and teaching along the way. I still work in the school setting, but as a writer and editor. I shouldn't have mentioned that. Someone is sure to find a grammatical mistake in here somewhere.
I come from a large and loving family. Some of whom live close by. I feel very lucky to have both the friends and family I do. I believe relationships are ever-evolving and there is great satisfaction in going through both the joyful and difficult moments.
I am hoping to find someone who has had enough life experience so their judgment has softened into curiosity, so they have realized a deep appreciation for the relationships and blessings in their life.
I sound so serious. I guess I am serious, . . . but not always.
