Date people from Fairfax, United States. Hello there,
I hope that all is well and that everyone is enjoying this beautiful day. “Rain or shine” By the way, I love all the seasons of the year. They all have their own great qualities, just like us...
My family and friends are the most important things in my life.... Without them I would not be the man I �am today.
Here is a little bit about myself. I love to have fun and try new things. I believe that life is way too short to waste and must cherish every moment, good or bad. I absolutely love music and if I had one wish it would be that I could play a musical instrument (it's not too late) or be able to sing like James Brown. The kind of signing that makes a person cry and feel good about life. Cheesy I know, but that’s who I �am. I can listen to any type of music (not punk rock, Sorry!) and really enjoy finding new genres to dance to.
I love to exercise, from playing basketball, golf, tennis, going on hikes, walking a dog (I hope soon) or dancing (not very good but I will sure try)... I believe that we should enjoy every day to the fullest... Do you care to join me?
Meet a man from Fairfax, United States. My name is Dan, and I moved to the bay area for my job last July. I'm a physically active, positive minded man who would like to meet a woman for friendship, and see where it goes from there. I'm honest, compassionate, and spontaneous. I love to enjoy life and learn all that life has to offer.
I'd like to meet someone who has the same interests and qualities as I. Someone who's openminded and spontaneous. She will enjoy intellectual conversation - respects my point-of-view on certain topics as I will in return. She's gotta be willing to get her hands dirty. She feels just as comfortable sitting in and watching movies as she does getting dressed up and going to dinner in the city. We will motivate each other with goals in life. I have a pretty diverse circle of friends and family that are great, so a 'people person' is a must.
So, if what I have described sounds like you, don't hesitate to drop a line.
Date men and women from Fairfax, United States. I'm kind, honest and cool. I love sunny days, beaches,baseball games, All kinds of good times. I'm a big fan of travel though have not done enough since I was little. I love Nor Cal, love the city and nature too. I think someone would see me in person and like me, it's hard to try to make someone decide online. I'm real, easy going, sweet, down to Earth but just crazy enough to have fun. I'm by no means a player, when in a relationship I will be super loyal. I can't describe everything I would like to find in a woman, she is real, kind, sweet, honest and thinks I'm awesome.
Meet a man from Fairfax, United States. I try to be a kind and generous person in all areas of my life. My greatest loves are music, pictures and laughter - I try to make as much of these as I can.
Photography recently changed from a hobby to a career and I feel completely liberated. I'm now growing a new business on my own and couldn't be happier!
I am a deep believer in mutual respect and integrity. I am very loyal to those who are loyal to me. My perfect match will be my best friend and biggest fan. I will be the same to her.
I have a beautiful little girl (age 6) who lives part time with me and part time with her mother. I love being her father.
I really love to ski but haven't gotten out to do that much for the past few years. It would be great to meet someone who also loves to ski.
I enjoy lots of different kinds of music with a few small exceptions. Some of my favorites include Jonatha Brooke, Coldplay, James Taylor, Christina Aguilera, Pink Floyd, Seal, The Beatles and all kinds of electronica/dance music.
Some of my favorite things include a concerts, dinner with friends, dancing, laughing, singing and playing piano/guitar for friends, singing my daughter to sleep, skiing in fresh snow, capturing a beautiful image, waking up to a warm smile.
I come from a huge family and I'm a very centered and even tempered person. However, that doesn't mean I don't know how to cut loose and party. I've been the last to leave as many parties as not.
My perfect match loves kids and is attracted to me partly because I am a father and not in spite of it. I am not setting out to find a step mother for my daughter. However, if I find a perfect match, that's not an impossibility.
My perfect match loves at least some of the same music as I do, she is not afraid to sing out loud or to kiss in public. She is proud of her accomplishments and comfortable in her own skin. She is open minded enough to be intrigued by something like Burning Man but sensible enough not to be reckless with her life. She is amazingly compassionate and inspires the same in me.
If you think there is a chance I am looking for you, please speak up. I'd love to become your friend and more if we truly are a match.
Thanks!
Date men and women from California, United States. Howdy. Thanks for taking a peek at my profile. Please read in entirety before responding. I have taken a hiatus from dating/relationships for last couple of years. Now that I have caught up and have things back in order, I wish to return to dating, hopefully to find a friend, maybe more, depending on how things go.
A little bit about me. 6 ft tall, fit, in shape. A combination of good genes and a fair amount of physical activity over the years has allowed me to retain some youthfulness, and I'm usually mistaken for younger than my years. I assume I'm reasonably attractive, or at least not too entirely scary, as women and children don't scream when I pass them on the street, nor am I pelted with rocks while out in public. I'm a jeans and T-shirt kinda guy. GQ hasn't exactly been banging down my door to pose for their cover. But, I do clean up ok though. and own a suit.
I'm carrying around with me minimal baggage. I do not have any kids (technically), at least that I'm legally responsible for. I do have a Stepson (ex wife's son). When I met my ex, he was just a baby. He is now 16 and looks me in the eye. Yikes!! Even though I have been divorced a looong time, him and I have always had a tight relationship and he considers me his "dad", and is here frequently. I get along with my ex, don't have any child support or alimony payments, nor crazy exes stalking me. I live in the small town of Fairfax in my old house that dangles precariously off the side of a steep hill under a canopy of 25 redwood trees. I like it here, err, uhh, well, except for the mortgage payment. Yikes!! (again). I live alone with my Monsters. I'm an animal lover and have several, the majority either being rescues or strays that found me.
Unlike most profiles, I don't have a long list of what I have to have, or have to not have. I would like to find someone I'm physically attracted to , and who I have intelligent conversation with, go out out on a date, and see what happens from there. She would have to like animals and not be allergic. And she would have to be BOTH 420 and 437737 friendly.
If any of this sounds even half interesting, drop me a line. I'd love to hear from you.
Meet a man from California, United States. I love outdoor activities, but also enjoy curling up with a good book, listening to music, dancing, cooking or watching a good movie. Coen Brothers movies are some of my favorites....I have more of ironic sense of humor, so a little off center humor suites me. My favorite social activity is small dinner parties with good friends and family. My personal relationship style is more direct with a need for open communication.
It would be nice to find a life partner that shares my core values, but has a mix of different and similar avocations. Just to be clear, I'm not necessarily looking for a camping buddy, however, it would be nice if my partner shared my love of natural wonders and would enjoy a walk in the woods or on the beach on occasion.
Essentially, I'm Looking for someone who is honest, patient and sincere with a good sense of humor. Do you like to have fun with limited drama? Can you laugh at yourself? Do you have an open mind? If so, we might be a good match.
Date someone special from California, United States. In the context of culture, a friend once called me a "unique mix of high brow and low brow." I'm an author of a published novel, a writer of poetry, a lover of Picasso, Lars Von Trier and Kubrick, and yet, I sing Sinatra badly and watch movies so bad they're funny. Aside from culture, I fervently dislike hypocrisy and bureaucracy. I've been a political activist and lobbyist. I once worked in Washington, D.C. for Uncle Sam in various managerial and budget jobs (and loathed it), and now I own and operate a writer conference event business that caters to aspiring authors. I'm also an agent associate for a book and film production company in LA.
I am searching for a woman who has a great sense of humor, doesn't take herself or anyone else too seriously. She must openly love natural beauty and transcend common notions to see reality, yet she must be a romantic. She will get my back when needed, smirk lovingly if I sing bad Sinatra to her badly, ask me to write her poems and massage her feet, or massage her poetry while writing on her feet, and be mature enough to know exactly what she wants in a relationship. The woman in question must also like THE BIG LEBOWSKI and BRIDESMAIDS--or at least like one and be willing to watch the other with me (or both).
When I lock down into real love mode and give my heart and soul it means I will care for you and strive to make you happy. It means loyalty and I've got your back, and we're in it for thick or thin, and the affection is promised forever.
Meet people from United States. I am very much the romantic when I find someone I'm attracted to... I am looking for someone to share life with... a special someone who together we'll enjoy movies, dancing, laughing, creating, traveling, and loving. I love sharing deeply, I seek relationships that are about truth and risk taking not complacency. I also enjoy the stillness of quiet moments and gentle relaxing days with nothing to do but enjoy each others company.
I am said to be funny, but i am not much on jokes, I find humor in irony and the little things about the world that don't make sense. I like being outrageous and playing with playful people (who i don't find enough of). I love art and traveling, a lot of places have been calling me lately, it would be great to have a love who loves to travel. I also enjoy computers, photography, dancing, yoga, tai chi, hot springs and sometimes I do sporting things like motorcycling, skiing, scuba diving, biking, and basketball.
I find myself most attracted to beautiful and present women, with a great sense of humor, and great eyes, a passionate, giving energy... everyone around you shines when you do. you love to dance, to travel... you love children, dogs, pets and truly care about the world and the people in it. You have a real sense of wisdom... and a willingness to be open and vulnerable.
Date men and women from California, United States. I am very patient and understanding. I am emotionally stable and I don't need to be fixed. However, I am not perfect and I am open to an occasional fine tuning. I don't spend my days watching football, baseball or basketball. As a matter of fact, I watch very little TV at all. I have no idea who won the Superbowl, the World Series or any other big sporty thing. I don't smoke or do any drugs. I drink reasonably - I don't get drunk. Other people speak very highly of me (and I don't have to pay them to). I am grateful for my friends and family. I love my job. I view my successes in life as being about people, not about money (although, I do fine in the money arena). I could not imagine living my life any different than I have. I have been very involved in doing volunteer work for schools as well as other humanitarian efforts.
Meet a man from California, United States. About Me & Who I'm Looking For
Hi! I have been described as kind, sincere, laid-back, intelligent and sometimes goofy who tries to treat everyone the way he'd like to be treated. If I could suggest, why don't we share our plus and minuses together, over tea or coffee, soon. ! My goal on Match.com is to find a happy, cultural/spiritual-minded female companion for outdoor activities including concerts, the symphony, and other out-going activities. Hopefully, this will eventually lead to a long-term relationship built on attraction, loyalty and trust. We are lucky in that there are no lack of fun things to do in this glorious bay area. So, let's hit the fun trail and go hiking, biking or back-roads driving together, soon. Good luck with your search and take care!
Date people from United States. Hello and welcome to my profile! I'm new to all this so grin and bear with me, please. I'm putting myself "out there" after the end of a 20 year relationship- I am still a romantic and wide-eyed about what I offer and what kind of woman would make a good match. A few things that you may need: a fire extinguisher for my kitchen experiments, boat shoes for sailing on my goodship lollygag, and earplugs for listening to the band I play in.
My values are grounded from growing up and being schooled in the Midwest but with 30 years of being in the Bay area. My #1 job is striving (and mostly succeeding) to being a good Dad to my 2 teenage kids (boy and girl). They're great kids and easily go between my house and my ex's house. Having teens, I look forward to my intellect evolving from near idiot to fairly wise as they reach 21 over the next few years. Recently, I have been back to graduate school and have transitioned my work and volunteerism to sustainability, environmental and social cause ventures. I sit on some non-profit boards and am active in guest speaking and organizing events at several colleges. I am grateful for the the good health of my family, my kids, the activist community of the Bay area, the most beautiful Marin County where I live, and the opportunity to play outside throughout the year.
I have been described as a serial entrepreneur (started 7 companies), active outdoors-man, sailor, Dad, curious, fun seeking, friendly, with a dry sense of humor. I like hosting small parties and having a full house, and making new friends. I am inspired by courage, thought leadership, serving the common good and by people who feed their souls even at the expense of sometimes not feeding their wallets. My smile comes easily in the company of a listening, caring friend, natural beauty, intellect, sailing the Bay, live jazz, playing music with my band, the performing arts, and in meeting a physical sports challenge (although it's not as easy as it used to be!)
What fires me up in a woman? An active, sporty, curious type. High on positivism and praise and low on critiques. A good listener. Challenges me with facts and passion, especially about social causes and public policy, making a difference in the world. Likes to entertain. Likes to travel, to explore and to be on the water. cooking together. Affectionate, available, not over-scheduled.
I don't have any checklists, but I do know that we could have some fun together and enjoy each other's company. We'll take our time, explore, discover and see where the journey takes us.
Please email me and let's give it a shot!
Meet a soulmate from California, United States. 4,000 words! yikes! Not that writing that many words scares me. (I did publish a 144 page book just 2 years ago). It's just that writing that many words about myself is a little challenging. If you were to ask me, I would have plenty to say about all the amazing experiences life has brought my way, about my 2 awesome kids, about how it feels to be alive. It's just that I'm a bit Taoist when it comes to talking about myself. You know, those that know, don't say, and those who say, don't know. But in reality, this is no time to get hung up on being a bit shy.
I have learned how powerful it is to stay in a committed relationship with someone, do the work that comes up, and grow to depths you might think we humans aren't capable of going. Before I had my kids, I lived a pretty sweet single life, full or travel, life styles, (from cowboy to ballet dancer, artist to bookstore owner), and pretty much choosing to do whatever I wanted. But now, I realize that there is a fulfillment much deeper than just always thinking, acting, and living with only yourself to consider.
I am looking to share life with someone who is thankful to be alive. Someone who can find the beauty of what they see, what they experience, and what is brought into their life. And still real enough to be able to laugh at ourselves and the craziness and sometimes absurdity that life brings.
I am a family man, who loves to be out in nature, or roaming the back streets of the city, or cooking dinner and then reading a book while sipping a glass of wine or a cup of tea. And I'd like to find someone to share those times with.
