Date single man from United States. I’m a multi-national mutt, having grown up in Australia, spent a decade living in London, and then the last 7 years in the USA, first in Washington D.C. and now SF, which has given me a number of things including an interesting accent, an extensive knowledge of cocktails, and the ability to speak fluent restaurant in 7 different languages.
I love the Bay area, and I still like to travel and seek to experience people and cultures not just to see places. Exploring and sharing that with someone produces memories that no camera can capture. I’m an inveterate story-teller (thanks, 1000 years of Irish bardic family tradition) which tends to make me curious and lead me into interesting situations ... such as the time when I was drinking flaming cocktails in a hotel bar in Rome, surrounded by 300 Italian riot police ... but I’ll save the rest of that one for another time.
In terms of relationships, I believe it’s important to be a good friend, to respect differences without compromising your own, and to keep a positive outlook. I learned a lot from being married (which was a while ago) especially about myself. Chemistry is important, trust is essential, and communicating is critical.
So who do I like to meet? Someone with an off-beat sense of humor to match mine, and who’s stylish, but not obsessed with how they look. They’d like to travel and be adaptable and adventurous, the kind of person who is happy to plan a trip and still leave room to be spontaneous.
If if you’ve read this far and I’ve piqued your interest, please send me a message!

Date single man from Emeryville, United States. Well... I have brown hair with a touch of silver, a big bright smile, and warm brown eyes. Friends say these compliment my friendly personality but - LOL - I say think George Clooney without the annoying paparazzi!
Stuff I like? Hmmmn, let's see...
Art and other cultural events – the quirkier the better. I could spend days browsing through the amazing work posted on Flickr - it's fascinating to me how others see the world. I'm especially into public art and murals and give mural tours in the Mission for a couple of non-profits.
Music is my passion. I love it! Almost all types – Cuban, Latin, Reggae, old school soul... you name it. A recent favorite is the "Playing for Change" compilation. You've got to check it out! If you’ve got one, it will touch your heart. And speaking of which, Sade completely melts mine.
I love my family, love my friends, and people in general… good food (okay - most food) and Amoeba Music (where I tithe regularly). I prefer low-key and unpretentious to over the top type of places, red wine to white (unless we're at a dive bar, in which case I'll be drinking whiskey), and pretty much any independent little neighborhood coffee shop to Starbucks.
Some things I’ve learned about myself? Dancing lessons have taught me that I’ve got two left feet. Martial Arts classes have taught me that I have two right hands. Both have taught me that I'm not hopeless. And somewhere along the line I’ve discovered that I’m a good kisser (so I’ve been told).
Lastly, I’ll add that I’ve got a sharp wit and a great, sometimes sarcastic, sense of humor. Nothing in life is funny without a sense of humor and can you imagine life without laughter? No thank you!
I'd love to meet a woman who's into music, diversity, creativity and culture… Someone easy-going who can rock a pair of jeans, loves to laugh and can make me laugh! Seems simple enough... I know you're out there. Let’s do this thing! If you're feeling kinda shy - just send a wink.
Meet someone special from Emeryville, United States. Hmm...summing up oneself...a work in progress.
I'm a geek, a leader, slightly introverted, highly passionate, immensely loyal, big hearted and adventurous.
I work hard running a company during the day. But make time every day to lead balanced life. Balancing time between family, friends and myself. I love cycling, snowboarding, hiking and hitting the beach. Cycling is a passion and I compete in century rides several times a year.
My dog, Ripley - named after Sigourney Weaver's character in Aliens, is one of the loves in my life. We spend time hiking in Marin, playing in the surf at Crissy Field or hanging at the Farmer's Market.
Music and movies are favorite escapes - though a dose of junk television is a welcome distraction. I'm gearing up to watch the Olympics and Tour de France this summer. Concerts, festivals and local live music are always fun!
Growing up in the Bay Area, I continue to find great new things to share with friends and family. From a great roadside burger joint to an amazing organic farm grown dinner or the best movie theaters in Bay Area.
I'm looking for a partner in crime. Someone ready to share the adventures life, has a great sense of humor, is secure in who they are, able to communicate honestly and have passion for life.
Staying fit, without being obsessive, should be important. As is eating healthy. Though guilty pleasures are the spice of life - dark chocolcate, delicious wine and savory treats.
My ideal evening might be trying a new hole in the wall restaurant before hitting the Kabuki for a movie, stretching out on the couch after cooking dinner or hanging with friends and family. On a rainy morning, you are equally happy staying in bed or splashing around the city.
I pay attention to the myriad of joys that make for a fulfilling life. The satisfaction of a job well done. Cool breeze on a hot day sitting with my dog. Laughter around the table while dining with friends or family. Sound of skis on the snow under my feet. Excitement of connecting with a new friend.
Message, wink or IM! This is a dating site after all.
Date a man from United States. Have a seat! Comfortable? Good, let me tell you a little bit about myself. Let's see...I consider myself very laid back and free spirited. I don't like to complicate things. Life is too short for that! I love to laugh and I've been told that I have a great smile:) I can be goofy, but I know when to stop (seriously)!
Family means everything to me.
I am very loyal to all my close friends. I have a good heart and hate when people take it for granted. I Look for consistency and persistence.
I hate wasting people's time and I prefer if people don't waist mine!
I enjoy a great conversation and chemistry is really important as well. My perfect match would be someone who is confident but not overconfident, someone who is down to earth, spiritual, giving, humanitarian, someone who loves to have fun, someone who enjoys life to the fullest. I need someone who has a positive attitude in life. Loyalty and integrity are the 2 most important traits to me.
Have fun, thanks for stopping by, and bye for now =)
Meet a soulmate from United States. I like to live life like the last day God give me. there is many ways to get friends but the best way to start is with a smile. I do not like people who cheat. I also like to go out to enjoy the nature (camping) specially if is with the women I love. I consider my self very friendly and I like to help other people.
Date single man from United States. I am polite and kind. I am also quiet and a good listener.
I strongly believe talking about any subject is the key in solving problems. It would be ideal to fine someone who shares that. It takes two to make a happy couple. I think having an open communication makes life easier. I would add having to share your political views and ambitions for life might be a big help. Here and there agree or disagree respectfully would be great. The rest could be enjoyable. Some people would say that is very practical however that is what I believe.
Sometimes people in general expect too much of each other and when that expectation is not met things could turn the other way.
I would like to meet someone who is down to earth and doesn't expect to live life as if this was a movie or have a Hollywood life style.
That is not say I am against Hollywood, for the contrary I love movies for entertainment.
More about me. Some of my favorite colors are; navy blue, beige, forest green, black and light blue. My music; alternative rock, of course the best the 80's rock roll and to mellow down some opera. I am not into rap or country music. I like most sports but not golf. I like watching political debates especially if their feisty. While driving I listen on the radio live 105.03, 104.05, 107.07 and NPR news. Some of these station on the morning tend to be like a talk show. I find it boring. I switch instead to listen the news. Well, if you like something here we might have something in common. We could be a good friends.

Date someone special from California, United States. About Me-
I'm not very good at following convention when I don't believe it makes sense. I'm more of a self educated man and I am always embarking on some new in-depth research project for either work or personal interest. I'm energetic although not hyper, shy and outgoing at the same time. I love to listen to life stories and get into the depth of my own and others emotions.
I have many people in my life who have been dear friends for decades. I believe strongly in loyalty, kindness and generosity.
From a dating perspective, I'm very romantic.
About you-
My ideal date is someone who has a great sense of humor and a strong sense of self. Of course sexy and comfortable in your own skin is a real plus. You enjoy being surrounded by interesting people who are vibrant, alive and energetic.
Meet a man from Emeryville, United States. I'm looking for someone who has realized her dreams without compromising her integrity. I'm interested in the content of her character. And if she's sweet and knows how to laugh and has a cute rear, then we should have coffee or go for a walk.
Date single man from Emeryville, United States. Looking for a tolerant, understanding, experienced woman who has aa agile mind, with an understanding of the political and economic situation this country, in particular, and the world is troubled by now. And it would be great if they are proactive in dealing with the situation, not just willing to live in a safe cocoon of their making, which is one of the reasons the world situation is so dire.
Meet someone special from California, United States. Never been married (no, it's not a red flag) but still looking for the right woman. I am mild and polite (which probably explains the first sentence) with a great sense of humor and and adventuring spirit. I've been many places around the world (worked in India and vacationed in all 50 United States, 4 Canadian provinces, Mexico, Argentina and Europe) and hope to go many more but looking for someone to to accompany me yet share a grounded loving home.
I have a commitment to decency and honor. Interests including playing piano (I can fake any Elton John song), going to movies, concerts,road trips but am open to other things. If you live in the east bay and do the right thing by supporting our teams, all the better.
Looking for someone who loves to travel but shares the values of family and the sense that what you do and the way you behave really does matter. Not looking for someone who is ready to coast to the finish line. Rather, she is kind and light hearted with a great sense of humor and teenage girl still in there somewhere. If you have a place in your heart for Disney, I might have the other half of that amulet you've been seeking.
