Date women from United States / California / Cupertino, 24 year old

Date a soulmate from Cupertino, United States. Hi!
The relationship I'm looking for is one where we put each other on a pedestal, and support each other in day-to-day and long term goals, successes, and struggles. I love to cook, so I'd like to date somebody who enjoys either eating food (duh) or cooking too... I love giving presents, writing love notes, sending text messages, and giving massages, so I'd like to date somebody who both considers that nice and not annoying, and maybe even wants to do it back!! :) I need to date someone affectionate, because I love to be affectionate in a relationship (like... after awhile, not if you're still dating 5 girls from match.com and 2 from college, gross!!)
I'm not the kind of person who likes to date a lot of people, and I'm definitely not looking for "hook-ups."
I'd love to date someone who considers himself kind and respectful, values health and is either vegetarian or vegetarian-friendly, funny, outgoing, cares about other people (and living creatures-- no hunting or fishing please)... can enjoy dessert and vacations and other little splurges while still being conscientious of the future financially and health-wise (I'm very much into healthy eating and exercise). Also, I love a gentleman :)
The people I choose to spend time with are positive and down to earth, and family is extremely important to me.
I like making good memories, like from trips (not necessarily big trips, I love it when fun is free), little adventures during the day, jokes... I have never been much for bars and night clubs, but I don't mind grinning and bearing it every once in awhile.
I'm an elementary school teacher if it's a good year (otherwise I substitute, which is fun too) and I'm a nanny for this summer.
People have said I'm smiley, patient and calm... funny? I will never make a duck-face, don't have any tattoos or piercings, and am not a big drinker but love an occasional glass of wine (with snacks!)
