Date men and women from United States / California / Santa Barbara, 32 year old

Date single man from California, United States. I am originally from Chicago, but have lived in different areas of the country for the last several years. Most recently I was living in downtown Chicago and took a new job in Santa Barbara. I knew absolutely zero about this area, but took a risk and have no plans but it working out perfectly. I am a big believer that everything works out in the end and a positive can be found even in the worst situations. Like a lot of people on here, writing an online profile wasn't something I thought I would be doing. Friends have said good things and I am always up for trying something new so here I am.
Hypothetically, if match.com required me to describe myself in writing, I would say I'm laid back, open minded, friendly and funny (so I've heard). I love what I do and enjoy helping people. Schooling and training had been the biggest part of my life and now that I am getting settled in work, I have a new passion for traveling. Right now my list of places to go is much longer than places I have gone. That should change in the future. It may sound weird coming from a single guy, but I love to cook. It is a creative outlet and a challenge, but the best part is I get to eat when I'm done. Seriously,who doesn't like to eat? I'm working on new hobbies now that I am living on the coast. Next up are kayaking, diving, hiking and eventually surfing.
As difficult as it is to describe myself, it is even harder to describe the perfect person on paper. I'm looking for someone fun, outgoing and loves to laugh. Someone that is passionate about what they do is very attractive. If you can enjoy whatever you are doing at the time and not take life too seriously, you caught my eye. Ultimately, it is all about chemistry. I am a believer that even the most opposite of people can make a match. Here I am looking for that person to enjoy Santa Barbara, life and anything else we can find along the way.

I am very active and really like being around people but I also value my alone time. I am a deep thinker and appreciate the details in all parts of life. Eating healthy and taking care of my body is very important to me, but it doesn't mean I dont like to splurge from time to time. I'm looking for someone who is compassionate, caring and a good listener who also has a strong sense of self. I don't want someone who fits into any particular mold. I like people for who they are.

Date people from California, United States. Trying this again...What do I do? I like skinny skiing, bullfights on acid....I am kind of a big deal...have many leather bound books, my apt smells of rich mahogany. Ok here are the ground rules, no touching of the hair or face....If you can read this you don't need glasses and probably just didn't look at the JV pics I put up on here. I do have more just ask, way hotter in person, just seeing if you are as superficial as you say you aren't....if you haven't laughed or at least smiled at this point, 1.) go to the top re-read, or 2.) go to the next profile.

Date a man from California, United States. Hello there,
I would consider myself as laid back, honest and reliable. I have a very curious mind that wanders into different things to find stimulus. I tend to be quiet at times perhaps because I am pondering about something all the time and that I speak only when I need to. But other times I can be very extroverted when the conditions are optimum, such as, when I am with people whom I know and like. I love to have stimulating conversions about .... anything really.
I am looking for a partner who is feminine, sexy, intelligent and classy. I think that pretty much covers it all :)

Meet a soulmate from California, United States. A high-brow Bach lover wanted, as learned as can be -more or less. Though I'll admit to lesser tastes. Robert Service poems are ok too, along with Milton. My latest love is birding -and I'm getting better at it. I like exploring everything, Central America recently. I like explorer women, of the ilk of Mary Wortley Montagu. But she would be too old for me, I suppose. I like T.E. Lawrence (of Arabia) and his story and how it adds up today. Genug.

Date a woman from United States. So I have finally done it, IРІР‚в„ўve done something that I never thought I could do, IРІР‚в„ўve signed up for online dating. I figured that my partner in life isnРІР‚в„ўt just going to find his way to me without putting myself out there. So, here I go... IРІР‚в„ўm looking forward to the journey and adventure that this might bring and excited to hopefully find a compatible companion in life.
A little about me: IРІР‚в„ўm so fortunate to get to live in the beautiful city of Santa Barbara. IРІР‚в„ўm pretty easy going and value my friendships and a glass of wine ;) While I enjoy going to grab a drink and food with friends and coworkers, I also appreciate time at home cooking food and watching a movie. I love to be active, ride my beach cruiser, play soccer and occasionally tennis. I like to hike in the local trails, picnic at the Rose Gardens on a sunny day, try out new restaurants (I particularly enjoy sushi, Thai, Mexican, seafood...the list goes on), and listen to live music at The Bowl or SOHO. I feel that traveling is important and seeing the world and learning about other cultures is essential. Overall, I canРІР‚в„ўt complain about my life, I have it pretty good...now I just need to find someone to share it with.
IРІР‚в„ўm looking for a man who is truthful and sincere with a great sense of humor-- someone who can handle my sarcasm and dish it right back.

Mutual respect and pushing each other to be fuller and better people is important in my ideal relationship (this would include taking risks sometimes and helping me step out of my comfort zone.)
I look forward to hearing from you if you feel we could be a match.

Meet someone special from United States. I'm a girl looking for a fun friendship that can hopefully turn into more. I'm new to Santa Barbara area and am looking for someone to share what this place has to offer with me. I'm interested in outdoor activities, the ocean, hiking, camping, anything crazy or not so crazy. I'll go skydiving, hand gliding or just sit on the beach but all this is a lot more fun when there is someone else to share it with. I'm passionate about traveling, I looove photography and road trips. I try and live a healthy lifestyle but am not a health nut. I will eat chocolate, red meat and drink beer if the occassion is right. I'm into sports including watching it. I love sunday football and the playoffs...I think going to a superbowl would be amazing. I am actually very happy with my job, it gives me the opportunity to explore the world and make a difference in peoples lives which is a really cool feeling. My idea on life is live each day like it's the last, and don't let regret take away from your happiness because you can't change the past you can only make the future better.
I would like to meet someone who is able to share his life and life stories easily...initial shyness doesn't bother me as long as you can be open once you feel comfortable. I would like someone who can hold his own in conversations...someone who is aware of the world around them and has an opinion on things. I want someone who is active, responsible and most of all mature! I want someone who doesn't run away when things get "serious" and who is ready for that to happen eventually...if it's going to happen. I feel you have to be attracted to the person you're with and its just a fact of life, though this can come not only from the physical sense. I feel chemistry is something that's not possible to explain and I feel it's either there or not but an integrally important part of things.

Date men and women from Santa Barbara, United States. Ok so I need funny, a person with a good sharp sense of humor is a must, goofy doesn't bother me because I can be super goofy too :) I loove playing around! Big heart, loyal and hardworking are musts! I'd like to meet somebody with a solid group of friends and/or family. I'm the kind of girl that can have lots of fun having a beer at stinky bar or at home with friends or having a good glass of wine at a nice restaurant. The same way I really enjoy myself with shorts, jeans and flip flops and I also love dressing up when I go out to dinner or to get drinks. Can't stand shallow people or a man that takes care way to much of his physical appearance because I want to be the girl in my relationship. And if you like showing off TALKING about money and cars and expensive stuff and bla bla bla I'm not your girl. I'm into smart funny people with humble hearts. It's also important that the person that is interested in hanging out with me has to know that I love sleeping in whever I can, specially on Sundays and I like taking naps whever possible :)

Meet a soulmate from Santa Barbara, United States. Just to give you and idea of who I am according to a few close one:) baby blue eyes, fun, energetic, spontaneous, compassionate, dynamic...oh and I canfriends of mine:)...kindhearted, sweet loving, loyal, killer smile (I liked that also be a handful! He he he;)
I'm 5'10" tall and not afraid to wear heals. I am also the mom to a very energetic crazy little boy. Coolest kid you'll ever meet unless of course you have your own and I'm sure they are the coolest too:) I have a big soft spot for pitbulls, hence my name. They are the most misunderstood breed of dogs and I am a huge advocate for them. Also love all the mastif breeds too. I work at a veterinary clinic in Santa Barbara and love what I do. Working closely with the owners and pets has been one of the most worthwhile jobs I've ever had. Animals can be such a part of who we are so finding someone who also loves animals is imperative. If you don't like animals I'm not sure we would work out.
I'm looking for a guy who is down to earth like I am. Someone who loves the city and the country at the same time. I'm looking for someone who loves spending time with friends and family at backyard BBQs on the weekends. Going swimming and sitting in the hot tub. Hiking and hanging out at the beach. I love the outdoors and being active. I don't go downtown too much except for the occasional happy hour with friends or random night dancing.
I need someone to make me laugh. What fun is life if you can't laugh:) Looking for someone with great integrity...following through on the words that come out of your mouth. Someone who will care for me and eventually my son as well...must love kids. I'm cool if you have kids too. The more the merrier right? I also would love to find someone who has a similar faith/spirituallity to me. It's important to share and support one another and to agree on the basic principals of life. I want someone who isn't satisfied with the world the way it is...someone who wants to make a difference either in work, play, or attitude.
It seems like a tall order but that's me! I like to have fun and enjoy life and would love a partner to join me for the ride:)
