Date women from United States / California / Cameron Park, 33 year old

Date a soulmate from California, United States. I come from a very close, sarcastic family and love them for it; I usually have dinner with them once a week. I love being outdoors and enjoy cycling, camping, kayaking and hiking during the summer, during the winter I trade all that for running. Give me a challenge and I'm usually up for it! I just moved into a great 1960's custom home that is begging for a Mad Men party. I have a stable job with people I truly enjoy working with - I'm just missing that one thing of having a great man to share my life with!
I am a veteran and have the whole work ethic and intergrity stuff drilled into me, I'm really thankful for it and tend to pride myself on the skills the military taught me and the people I've met. I enjoy my job and I'm currently going to school for my Masters to see what opportunities it may open up for me.
What am I looking for... well, someone who doesn't take themselves too seriously, has a sense of humor and enjoys the outdoors. A man who isn't afraid to get what they want out of life and is looking for someone to laugh with and enjoy the little things. My weaknesses include a man with sideburns and a great smile :) If you're interested, send me an e-mail/wink and we'll see were we end up!

Meet a woman from California, United States. I hate talking about myself, it feels as though I’m trying to sell you something, but here it goes. I’m on this site not because I live a busy lifestyle and have no time to meet people. I’m here because I’m obviously not going to the right places to meet the type person I want to be with. I’m not one for the bar scene, although I do have my one little whole in the wall bar that I like where everyone knows your name…ya ya I know Cheers…but the type of person I’m looking for doesn’t go there, and I’m not one for those trendy type places where the cover charge is $20 dollars. For the most part I’m low key, it doesn’t take much to impress me, but I do like to be treated like a lady. I don’t have to be wined and dined because in the end that all fades and the true personality of a person comes out.
I enjoy being outdoors when the weather is nice. I love exploring new places. If I go on a road trip for the day I do my best not to take the same way home. IРІР‚в„ўve already seen it. On those rainy ugly cold days IРІР‚в„ўd rather stay inside were its warm and curl up on the couch and watch movies all day.
I cherish my family and friends. I have many acquaintances but about 5 true friends and I like it that way. Most of my friends IРІР‚в„ўve had sense either grade school or high school. Each of them brings a different light to my life and I will ever be grateful for that.
I would like to get married and have kids one day, but I won’t sacrifice my happiness just to be with someone. I am very shy and quiet when I meet someone new, and it takes some time before I feel comfortable with a person in order to let them in. I’ve always been like that. It wasn’t a bad relationship that shut me off, it’s just who I am. I’ve had a few people tell me I’m hard to read because I am so quiet, I’ve also had some people tell me I’m mysterious….I laughed at them. There is nothing mysterious about me. I’m just a simple person who happens to be quiet. I once had an old cowboy tell me I’m the perfect women because I don’t drink his beer and I don’t talk. I guess I just like to listen to what other people have to say, and believe me I do listen. Like I said before I’m grateful for the few friends I do have because they were the ones who took the time to get to know the real me.
IРІР‚в„ўm independent, probably too independent for my own good. I can be stubborn at times, but then I can be a follower and just go with the flow of things. I donРІР‚в„ўt like to make waves, but I will stand up for myself if I feel there is a need.
What I’m looking for is someone who can be themselves, someone who has their own life and interests. Someone who is stable, mentally, emotionally, and financially…no I’m not looking for someone to take care of me. I’ve been doing that quite well all these years. What I want is to be an enhancement to someone’s life as well as them being the same to me.
So if I havenРІР‚в„ўt scared you off by now and want to know more feel free to send me a message. For the most part IРІР‚в„ўm an open book. I do stick my foot in my mouth quite often.
