Meet men and women from California, United States. I’ve traveled to 167 countries, I go skydiving every weekend, and I climbed El Capitan without ropes last Thursday.
Except that none of that is actually true. I do, however, have a fairly refined sense of irony. And while I’ve had my share of adventures, and hope to have many more, especially with a willing partner, I'm also fine engaging in more relaxed, less ambitious pursuits. Ultimately, who I’m with is a lot more important than what I’m doing.
So given the choice between a woman who looks like Penelope Cruz but expects to be treated like Queen Elizabeth, and the girl next door (metaphorically speaking) who is warm, fun, and loves being around me, I’ll take the second option eleven times out of ten. In my world, she’d be the real queen anyway.
I imagine that my particular queen will be fun, assertive, reliable, and outdoorsy on one hand, and warm, genuine, compassionate, and feminine on the other. Planning and decision-making will be strengths (especially event and trip planning), but so will empathy and affection. She will be equally comfortable lounging at home, or hiking in the back country, or dressing up and looking great. And, of course, she'll dig the drummer.
As far as appearance goes, I don’t have anything particular in mind, except to say that I want a woman who is healthy and fit and who likes to look good without obsessing about it (sort of like me in that respect). I'm not looking for a supermodel. And yet to my eyes, she will look quite beautiful and sexy. And I will remind her of that often.
I think it's important for people to be able to laugh at themselves and others, but in a good way not a mean way. So if a woman has a well-developed talent for poking fun and dishing out a little affectionate ribbing and teasing, I may just find her totally irresistible.
And what would she be getting in return? That’s a hard question to answer without engaging in a bit of shameless self-promotion—which I will now do. I’ve been told (and I have references to back this up) that I am clever, fun, funny, honest, empathic, smart, helpful, and organized. I’ve also been called affectionate, creative, verbally talented, and a good listener.
An introvert that likes people, I am a somewhat unusual combination of practical yet hopelessly romantic, irreverent yet sensitive, independent yet intensely loyal, comical yet serious. Some of my coworkers have called me the funniest guy in the office, which, as I've pointed out, is sort of like being top sprinter on the Sumo wrestling team. But why split hairs?
If body type is of interest—and why wouldn’t it be—I am lean, athletic, energetic, fit, and in possession of a flat stomach. It’s a combination that some women seem to like. And I would love to find just such a woman.
I believe in eating healthily, exercising in moderation, and otherwise taking good care of myself---and I hope to find a partner who feels similarly. There are no guarantees to health and longevity, but I do believe in trying to maximize one's chances.
And, like everyone else, I have my share of imperfections. But rather than make a list, suffice it to say that I would like to find a woman who appreciates my strengths while tolerating and even empathizing with my flaws and vulnerabilities. In return, I would hope to do the same for her. That’s part of what relationships are made of, after all.
I look forward to making my partner laugh loud and often. But laughter isn’t the only positive response I hope to get from her on a regular basis. Pleasing her and making her happy will not only make me happy, it will be a passion of mine. Her appreciation for me will feed my enthusiasm for her, and good things will happen. She’ll want what I have and have what I want. And who could ask for better than that?
So that’s my vision. Maybe it’s a lot to ask, but I thought I’d ask anyway. Because if I can find a woman like that, it may just be the best thing ever to happen to me.
Date people from California, United States. I am looking for the love of a good woman, the love of my life. I can offer love, patience, faithfulness, kindness and understanding. I consider myself a pretty good listener. In a former life I facilitated a self-help support group. I don't mind if you're carrying "baggage". I think I would be a good person to live with on a daily basis. I would like to travel more. Hawaii is definitely one place I'd like to visit. My ideal date is lunch or dinner at a restaurant and seeing a movie. I'm a quiet shy person. I like just about all kinds of movies, including romantic comedies and dramas. My music tastes tend towards pop, rock and country. I must confess I'm a geek and nerd, but have non-tech interests as well.
Meet a man from California, United States. I'm guessing I'm half way down that winding path and looking for a companion to join me for the rest of that journey. I cherish my friends and my family and hope to add someone special to that list. I would definitely describe myself as a lover of life and am always seeking to explore what our world has to offer.
Date people from Davis, United States. Recently divorced and taking a chance on match.com.
Friends would describe me as easy going, responsible, and dependable.. I am told that I look young for my age. Hoping to meet someone that is kind, sweet, giving and intelligent to have a long-term relation. I value honesty and integrity!
I have a young son that I co-parent (50%) and is a big part of my life.
I like to travel, take weekend trips when I can. I also like exploring places near water, especially oceans (think San Diego, Santa Monica, Malibu Santa Barbara and Hawaii). Also enjoy going out for a quiet dinner, watching a movie or just relaxing at home. Getting back into running after a long hiatus. My son is still young, so I do a lot of kid stuff too like Disneyland a couple times a year. Not a big camper, but definitely open to doing so, I prefer a cottage on Dillon Beach as opposed to being in a motor home or tent... I don't get to them too often but outdoor concerts or 2nd Saturday in midtown is fun. Weekend (or day) trip to SF once in a while. I enjoy nice conversation over coffee or beer / glass of wine or diner.
Self- employed and financially secure, fortunate to have a decent amount of free time.
Meet someone special from Davis, United States. I'm open-minded, honest, sincere, and responsible. I love my job (research and teaching in chemistry), but put a lot into other things. I have two great kids (9 and 11) who mean the world to me and I spend a lot of time with them. I love to think, deeply and openly, about all sorts of stuff. Openly is the key. I'm very open to others' opinions and generally vocal with mine . . . NOT judgmental though. I do believe in the Golden Rule and try to live by it.
My exercise these days is running three miles every morning. It's not my favorite way of working out but it fits nicely into the daily schedule. I love a good soccer game, and am thinking about playing in the adult baseball league next year. I've been coaching and umpiring my son's baseball and the bug is kind of catching me again. I played a lot when I was younger.
I love to be out in the world and having fun. I take my kids camping a lot, mostly in the mountains, and started them on backpacking into the wilderness this year. We love to ski. Live music is one of my favorite go out and do something evening activities. I ride motorcycles (have since I was ~10) and usually have an old one I'm restoring/fixing up. I'm pretty easy to get along with, not very demanding, and good at compromising. I have an appreciation for the Buddhist outlook. I subscribe to the idea that a good/happy/fun life is lived one good/happy/fun day at a time. I like to cook (although cooking for my kids means pretty boring simple stuff!) and take care of my old house. I'd like to find someone with a kind heart and a lively spirit. Hopefully, you are adventurous, enjoy the outdoors, open-minded, have a "large soul", and can be serious but don't take yourself too seriously. A great sense of humor is a big plus! I've been divorced six years and am ready for something new and fun.
Date a man from Davis, United States. I consider myself a very family oriented individual. My kids are a huge focus in my life as they are young and I really look forward to providing them guidance in helping them find their way. I also can always find time for my extended family in the Sacramento area.
Individually, I have always been a workout fanatic...sometimes within a gym setting and other times not. The continued challenge of fighting off father time is something I really tend to enjoy. I love sporting events, either in person or sometimes in front of the TV. It's always great fun to create a BBQ party around a big sporting event. I have been known to have a great sense of humor, often self-depricating, but nevertheless fun.
Professionally, I am at a transition point. Starting a new practice back in my hometown of Davis is something I'm really looking forward to. Having the opportunity to provide health care programs for my patients has always been extremely rewarding.
My ideal match would be someone who loves me and my family equally, allows me to be myself while being independant, enjoys sports (love that my girl knows how to give it a try, good or bad, and shake it along the way) and exercise and is supportive regarding helping me build up a new health care business back in my hometown. Also of great importance would be someone who has the ability to enjoy my children as I do while understanding that they are not their "mom" but still a very important person in their lives.
Socially, I am looking for an individual who doesn't need to be out and about to show themselves off to others, someone who realizes they are with me and finds themselves proud to be so as I am with them. Last, and certainly not least, I am looking for someone who expects and desires to have a relationship which is full of passion...passion which doesn't fall prey to the false premise that with marriage comes boredom and complacency. I've never been fond of being told "this is just how it is with marriage". Marriage is always a work in progress which demands constant attention as well as a striving on both individuals part to surprise and please the other.
Meet a soulmate from Davis, United States. I just turned 50 and separated from my wife. My two teenage daughters live with me. I am quite comfortable in life with a decent income and a very satisfying job. I can't say that I need anything except someone to share my life with.
I would like to meet an intelligent, caring woman who enjoys simple pleasures of life.
Date someone special from Davis, United States. If you don't have a passport how are we going to see the world? Glass is not only half full someone bought me a beer. That is the best way I can describe myself. I have two children. Both are out of the house. I might have made a mistake letting them keep the keys. Sometimes I find the fridge cleared, not cleaned, out. I love to laugh. I still read the funny pages in the newspaper. I think I have a great sense of humor. Not everybody gets it but that sometimes is the best part. I love going out. Living in Davis with the Mondavi center and San Francisco so close there are way to many options for fun and entertainment. I like to be active but I'm not an every weekend warrior.
I can spend the weekend on the beach playing frisbee with the dog. I just don't have a dog, or the frisbee actually and my cat is useless for catching anything. I like to hold hands and I'm a good kisser. Sometimes that's important. I can dress up and chew with my mouth closed. Trust me that's not easy for some people. I love to dance and have pretty damn good rhythm for a white guy. I wake up happy most days. I don't wake up fast but at least I'm happy.
I am looking for someone with spirit, who is outgoing and loves life and all that comes with it. I have a large, loud and feisty family. She would need to like large families as mine is very important to me. They are 1500 miles away so not an every weekend kind of thing.
I would like someone adventurous and looking to learn and teach. Must have passion. Life is short. Lets make the world better by having more fun than most.

Date a soulmate from United States. Life is meant to be shared.......
Like most of the people here I never expected to venture out this way. However, I truly believe that "life is meant to be shared" and am optimistic that the right person feels the same!
I love good conversation, sharing experiences, exploring new things and challenges, watching a great sunset and being lighthearted. I’m VERY young at heart and intend to stay that way!! Those close to me would say I’m intelligent, very patient, caring, open, artistic and a great listener.
I would like to find chemistry with that special person who is attractive both inside and out, who is my best friend, has a great sense of humor, someone I respect and look forward to being with, is compassionate and has a romantic heart. You don't have to be perfect or fit a certain mold just someone who is genuinely real.
I want us to enjoy each other’s company, live in the moment and share what life has to offer.
