Date someone special from California, United States. I'm a sincere and honest person who believes in the golden rule--treating others the way I would want them to treat me. I am serious about life, but I also like to have fun. I'd describe myself as calm and level-headed. Metaphorically, I prefer the merry-go-round to the roller coaster. I value both serenity and passion, and I believe the two can co-exist. I am an optimist, and I look for the best in everyone and everything. My 16-year-old daughter is very important to me, and I believe I'm a good parent. But, I also reserve time for myself, and for my future partner. Lately, I am into yoga, hiking, bike riding, live theater, Words with Friends, and watching movies on Blu-ray. I enjoy watching the Lakers.
I'm looking for someone who is honest, caring, loyal, intelligent, and open-minded. You have a good sense of humor. You are hard-working and dependable, but make sure to save time for fun. You are happy with your life, and have your own circle of friends. You have a positive attitude. You have knowledge of current events, political awareness, and opinions on the issues (which don't have to agree with mine). You like kids, and my daughter thinks of you as a cool friend. You might have a child of your own too, but if not, that's fine too. Finally, you are as passionate about me as I am about you.
