Date men and women from United States / California / Van Nuys, 41 year old

Date people from Van Nuys, United States. Originally from the mid west Michigan to be exact, I've been in LA close to 18 years now and have planted some strong roots here. I have incredible friends which I now call family and my career is going strong. So finding that "partner in crime" so to speak is now my focus. I'm a pretty easy going guy, sarcastic and love to have fun no matter what I'm doing. I'm a little shy at first but once I get to know you I don't shut up... lol I've been taught good morals and strong family values make the man and chivalry is not dead in my book.
I love to travel and have been all over the US and though my passport has no stamps yet I'm looking forward to it. Weekend getaways are fun too and a couple of my favorite close destinations are Santa Barbara, Vegas, Monterey, San Fran and Phoenix. In my spare time you can find me at my shop where I do carpentry work as a hobby, at the recording studio recording and listening to music or just hanging out with some incredible musicians.
My ideal match is fun, honest, strong, caring and passionate. A woman who is independent yet at times a little dependent, she is successful not only in her career but in her everyday life. She knows what she wants in a relationship and she doesn't play games.

Meet a man from Van Nuys, United States. Lloyd: What do you think the chances are of a guy like you and a girl like me... ending up together?
Mary: Not good.
Lloyd: You mean, not good like one out of a hundred?
Mary: I'd say more like one out of a million.
[pause]
Lloyd: So you're telling me there's a chance... *YEAH!* - Dumb and Dumber :)
Alright, here goes:
I'm looking for a an attractive woman with a good sense of humor; someone who has diverse interests and is not high maintenance.
Communication is very important to me. I also appreciate honesty, courtesy, respect and a slightly crude sense of humor ;)
I have many interests ranging from movies to music, sports and travel. I also enjoy roller-coasters and iced tea, though not at the same time......
An average night out with friends is spent at various restaurants and bars. I am easily entertained by good conversation, people watching or both.......
I'm making a serious attempt to exercise more frequently and eat healthier. I work out 3-5 times a week and I'd love to find a new racquetball partner.
When my life becomes predictable, I try something new to shake things up. Some past adventures include scuba diving, running in the LA marathon, skydiving, travel, etc.
I have a well paying but somewhat erratic career in the television/ film business. I hope to make a career transition in the next few years, hopefully finding greater rewards and more personal time for a relationship/family.
I am a dreamer, and I do play the lottery. I like to think that life has many possibilities and opportunities, so I try to live that way. Sometimes I have to remind myself.........
I've got a nice house, many friends and many interests. I'm close with my family, and I'm pretty spiritual but not religious.
I'm hoping to find someone that shares many of my interests and hopefully introduces me to some new ones. I'm willing to date casually, but I'd prefer a steady relationship.
Hope you like my profile hope to hear from you.

Date someone special from Van Nuys, United States. Hi! My name’s Brian. I work for The City of Los Angeles as a mechanic. I really love my job, and actually look forward to going to work! I think I have an excellent work ethic. I work pretty hard, and never seem to call in sick! It’s always good exercise for my brain to try and figure out the many problems which we see everyday at the job. However, in an attempt to not sound so one dimensional, I also love the artistic side of life. For many years, I’ve been practicing fire juggling, unicycling, and other circus skills. On Halloween night, I put on a torch juggling show for the neighborhood kids. I also enjoy building my own mechanical Halloween props, which I display on the front yard, as well. People seem to have a good time with it, as it has become a neighborhood tradition. I guess you could say that Halloween is my favorite time of the year!
I love vintage black and white monster films, as well as much of the fantastic hard rock from the 70's and 80's.
For fun and recreation, I like going to the local rock clubs to see the excellent tribute bands which are out there. Going to big concerts is always a good time, too. Bike rides all over the place are fun. Movies are also a good, easy time. Lately, I’ve been trying to keep up a jogging routine, which makes me feel pretty invigorated! I’m also interested in reading self improvement books, and autobiographies of people whom I admire. That’s more exercise for my brain! It seems to keep the gears inside my head rolling along smoothly (I hope!).
I love using words like, "please", and "thank you". And I think politeness is AWESOME!
Some of my favorite performers/ heros are: Keanu Reeves, Gene Simmons, Elvira, The Fonz, and Bela Lugosi.
My “philosophy” could be summed up by saying that life is supposed to be an “Excellent Adventure”, like in the movies. It’s supposed to be a fun ride, with a lot of cool experiences, and fulfilling accomplishments along the way.
I realize I’m kind of an unusual dude in this world. I'm sorry that I don't look or act like every other boring guy in the world....... But, maybe, there’s someone out there who gets a laugh from my antics, and thinks I'm "cool". We could see where it goes from there! Thanks for reading! And......"Be Excellent To Each Other!"

Meet single man from Van Nuys, United States. I am a man who enjoys the company of a woman who can make me smile and laugh at the little things. I enjoy a good movie, sporting event or quiet moments listening to music with candles to set the mood. If you find yourself fitting that description feel free to reply.

Date a soulmate from Van Nuys, United States. Hi there! Here’s a little bit about myself. If I tell you everything about me now, what will we have to talk about? First of all, I believe that life is too short NOT to be honest. I think communication is the most important aspect in a good relationship and that is what I am looking for. I believe that everyone is the SUM TOTAL of all of their experiences. I am not just George the graphic artist, or George the listener of Alternative Rock and Dark Wave, RockaBilly, Rock En Espanol music: The Cure/Depeche Mode/The Smiths/B-52s/The Sparks/The Romones/The Damned/The Clash . I’d love to get to know about all the experiences you have had in your life. I’m very direct and once I get to know someone, I have no problem expressing myself or my feelings. I love to laugh, and I like to make others laugh as well. We’d all be lying of we said that “looks” aren’t important, but I’m not totally hung up on that. I’m physically fit, take care of myself and always try to put my best foot forward. I’d like you to feel the same way about yourself. Self confidence is sexy no matter what you look like. I have my picture posted and would prefer you do the same and not in bad shape at all but working out to improve. And that’s where it ends. My mom taught me never to judge a book by it’s cover, it’s the story inside that’s most important.
I won’t ask anything of you that I wouldn’t offer of myself. Values, loyalty, intellect and sense of humor are aspects I hold dear. There’s so much more I’d like to tell you, but that can wait until we’ve spoken. Who knows what could happen? After all, I believe there is no such thing as an experience NOT worth having. If you like it, you can do it again. If not, you’ve lost nothing and gained an experience to add to your SUM TOTAL. Looking forward to meeting you!

Meet men and women from Van Nuys, United States. I need to think about this a little before I write a big essay about myself and what I want, or maybe I could just keep it short and leave a little for the "getting to know each other" process. So, I'm an honest hard working harder playing 42 yr old that thinks he's still 22 (when it comes to having fun that is) I guess I'm just looking for someone that keeps in decent shape, loves the beach, and maybe dogs, and doesn't take life too seriously, but knows when you must be serious. If you're not laughing, you're not living!

Meet someone special from United States. looking for a heart of gold, balls of steal.. an honest man with a good sense of humor, someone who isnt ashamed to cry, and isnt afraid of a challange.
Im just the girl next door with a sexy twist, looking for that best friend that I can laugh with, cry with , and enjoy good stuff with :)

Date a woman from California, United States. I am a fun, loving, outgoing, sensitive, down to earth woman who enjoys laughter, communication and sincerity. I am intelligent, well-educated and well-read. I love to dance and have fun, and get together with friends and enjoy good conversation, wine and laughter. I can be silly, goofy, serious, deep, perform classical music, but dance to hip-hop, sing-along pop and R&B songs and melt away with jazz.
I am looking for a confident, intelligent, educated, affectionate and loving man. Sense of humor is a must :) Someone who is not afraid or intimidated by a confident, well-educated woman, someone who is not a mama's boy (sorry, but I had to say it) and is dedicated to his woman and is a real partner and a friend. Honesty and loyalty are very important, as well as mutual respect and ability to communicate. Looks and chemistry are an integral part of the relationship, even though they aren't the most important ones perhaps, nevertheless, that mutual attraction, physical intimacy and making each others' blood flow are part of a successful relationship. In short, I am ready for a new chapter in my life. In case you are wondering "how much" separated I am, my divorce is at its final stage. I am looking for an honest, passionate, sensual, sincere, intelligent, happy, witty, caring, man to share dinner and conversation with and see if it can lead me to that special someone I am looking for :) One thing for sure, I don't like nor play head games. Oh, and I really appreciate common sense, which unfortunately isn't as common as one would think.
I love to have fun and am an optimistic person. If I am not smiling you know something is wrong. So if you can make me laugh and keep me interested by your wit and intelligence, and if I am feeling the "vibes" from you, you are my guy :) I love to read a lot. My Kindle is my constant companion (I ran out of room to store books :) I love to have coffee, curl up on the sofa in front of the fireplace, especially on a rainy day. But too much rain makes me gloomy and I need blue sky and sunshine. I am happy in a big crowd, or alone having quiet time. I go for walks and just enjoy the green leaves against the blue sky, and the beautiful landscape. I love to travel, see new places and have tropical vacations. I love movies, plays, concerts, the opera, the symphony, the ballet.
I dress well, I am very well put together all the time. It makes me happy to coordinate outfits and accessories, having said this, I don't spend hours and hours shopping. I do appreciate nice and expensive things, but I am not materialistic. I enjoy having a gentleman open up doors and give me flowers and gifts for special occasions, but all of that means NOTHING without the mutual respect and caring. Then the whole thing becomes fake, pointless and irritating.
So, if any of this has caught your eye, please drop me a line, I would love to have coffee or drinks with you :)
