Meet a soulmate from California, United States. Online profiles are always a challenge to write. They all start sounding the same after a while don't they? So, let's see..... I spent many years in the corporate world and a few years ago decided to quit my job and go back to school.
I love the smells and sounds of the beach, the sound of birds, a cool summer breeze, the smell of freshly cut grass in the spring, the natural smell of eucalyptus, and all of nature's creatures. I have a few creatures of my own at home - they are the children I never had.
I have been blessed with the most amazing best friends in the world and they live on the east coast which is where I'm from originally. I moved here about 8 years ago from New Jersey/New York. I've been told I have an east coast "edge". I love Marin and the city. We live in an extraordinarily beautiful place. I would love to discover more sites here in the bay area.
I'm a spiritual person and have come to believe that this life is an extraordinary tapestry of decisions and plans and that everything happens for a reason and that it's all part of the bigger plan. Is it fate? What about free will? One thing I know is that we all have lessons to learn while we're here - I hope I'm learning mine.
I am a constant work in progress. I also tend to have a sarcastic and sometimes dry sense of humor. I often make people laugh and tend to crack myself up. I love comedies such as: Step Brothers, Flirting with Disaster, 40 Year Old Virgin, Knocked Up, Bridesmaids, Young Frankenstein, The Hangover, etc., I could watch these over and over again.
My date? I will ask the universe for someone who is: SINGLE, emotionally available and emotionally intelligent, stable, humble, loyal, driven, is passionate about what he does, is a kind and gentle soul yet is strong and ambitious, is ok with strong, independent women, knows he is a work in progress and is open to growing and changing in life. You should love animals. Humor is key. And of course we have amazing chemistry. Looking forward to hearing from you. =)
