Date someone special from Hancock Park, United States. I've been down in SoCal now for almost 2 years after moving here for work, but just recently moved out to the LA area. I'm still obviously learning about my new area and hoping that I can settle here for awhile because I have moved 3 times in 3 years for work and it's exhausting!
As for what I am looking for, the two most important things to me in a relationship are honesty and communication. It seems that a lot of people tell you what they think you want to hear or tell you that they are a person that they are hoping to be. Let's face it, none of us are perfect, and generally we are far from it. So please just be yourself! I also believe that a relationship can only develop in a healthy manner when people are willing to communicate. Getting to know someone means that you have to open up to them and let them into your life, as scary as that may be sometimes. But, the rewards in the end could be totally worth it.
I'm a very focused person and when I want something I will make it happen, no matter how long it takes or how much I have to sacrifice to get it. I prefer people who are driven in their lives. I don't care what you do for a living, but enjoy it & have some passion about it. That being said, I also want someone who can find that balance in their life between their work and their family/friends. I know that we can all get super busy from time to time, but if you really like someone and want to see if there is enough for a possible relationship, you have to make time for them in your life.
I would love to find someone who loves to read, travel and keep up on world events. I like to go to chill bars and lounges and just relax and chat with my friends. I also enjoy dining out and cooking at home so it would be nice if my match enjoyed those things as well. I can go from a black tie event one night to a hole in the wall club the next and fit in everywhere. I'd love to find someone who can adjust well to any situation and be comfortable with who they are. I would also like to find someone who can challenge me in my life and generally help me to be a better person, because I'm hoping I can do the same for them.
I also really enjoy sports.....whether it's watching hoop or football at home on the couch or a quick pick-up game, I'm in & may even beat you......so be prepared! I also enjoy hiking but haven't been on a good hike in quite some time, but I do hear there are a few places to go hiking in LA so it's on my list of things to check out.
If any of this sounds interesting to you...hit me up & we'll see what happens!! Take care & thanks for viewing my profile!
Meet a woman from Hancock Park, United States. I'm a fabulous 40-something that looks as if she's in her late 20's. I'm an attractive, creative, well-educated, fun, excited about life, honest, caring, loving, and looking for that special someone. I'm sure he's out there, but I'm having fun learning about myself and doing things on my own, so am willing to take my time to find the right fit for me.
My ideal guy would be confident, supportive, have boatloads of integrity, be motivated to take care of himself emotionally and physically, funny, honest, trustworthy, loving, open to public displays of affection (I'm touchy...not in a porno way, but I like a man to feel comfortable with my touching him.)and will have worked on and continues to work on his issues. We, all, have things that need fine-tuning, so that's not a deal-breaker; however, being complacent and clueless is. Cute would be a plus, but cutenesss is in the eye of the beholder. If you have a great personality, are confident enough to maintain eye contact with me, and are open, curious, and know how to listen, then I would love to get to know you. Dudes, if you have a problem with being with gay people, don't bother writing me. I have so many gay friends, so, if you're going to be uncomfortable, please move on.
I love to eat, so dining is key. Big plus if the guy knows how to cook, or is willing to cook with me. It's romantic! I enjoy going to the movies and theater, reading (am reading a lot of plays now. I have a goal to read 1 stage play or screenplay a week), traveling, checking out recipies on-line (may be dorky, but one day, when I have the space, I will be ready!). I've started rollerblading on the beach once a week. I still haven't mastered breaking, so I run into trees or on the grass :-). It's a blast, though, and it's good exercise. I do yoga about 4 times a week, and I find that it keeps me sane and help me sleep better.
I'm grateful for my wonderful circle of friends, for all my achievements, and the fact that I've pretty much done everything I've ever wanted to do. I've traveled by myself, lived in the D.C. area for about 20 years (yay, Northern Virginia!), and, most recently, Buenos Aires for 6 years. I have been an art model, doctoral-level psychotherapist, and am now a full-time actor.
There isn't anything I regret, even if it ended up being messy; everything's a lesson in the end.
Date a soulmate from Hancock Park, United States. Whether you are the "most interesting man" who has never worn lip balm or confident like the old spice man on a horse backwards, you will make me smile and laugh. I hope my smile will melt your heart and make you smile too. Curious, creative and intelligent are three words my close friends use to describe me. I seek a gentleman to share myself with and to explore and discover new territories. Let's venture out together and then end up snuggling at the end of the day. When at home and the weather's good, I can be found on my rooftop terrace looking at the Hollywood sign and enjoying the amazingly peacefulness of my 'hood. I want to get to know YOU, your likes and your dislikes, your thoughts and your opinions. Let's leap into summer with a bang!
Simple pleasures are essential. The smiles of my niece and nephew always bring a bigger smile to my face. I am open to all travel options, not as a necessity, but as something to plan together and to look forward to. I recently renewed my passport and it needs many more stamps. My travel experinces include extensive travel throughout Europe (even Poland and East West Berlin just before the wall came down), also Thailand, Cambodia, Hong Kong, India (wow!), and of course Hawaii. I just visited Indochina in January: Cambodia and Vietnam, the Mekong River and Ha Long Bay, incredible people and cultures. I think South America is up next.
Dogs are pets, cats are cats. I am an NBA and golf fan, some NHL, and will start gearing up for baseball fever now that it's summertime. I am originally from the land of 10,000 lakes but have been in LA for years. I have been involved with a small real estate company since it's inception and really enjoy it and appreciate the people that I interact with on a daily basis. I feel fortunate for that. I also do my best to balance out my life beyond work and enjoy what life has to offer.
Meet someone special from California, United States. Life is a journey and the real quest is to learn how well you travel. Life will present it's rewards and challenges, ups and downs, desires and disappointments, but a partner in crime can make the experience so much sweeter. I am searching for the man that will meet the challenges with a smile and a sturdy hand. Man, who love life and have a positive outlook, enjoy the company of friends but love intimacy with his mate. I enjoy a man that rather play the game than watch it from the bleachers, takes care of his health, enjoys a healthy life style, and knows how to balance work and play while looking for a monogamous relationship.
I am a balanced combination of serious and dependable with a silly side and lots of fun "off duty", I am sensitive to people feelings and find sarcasm offensive. Very playful and like to approach most things in life with a smile and a laugh.
I love dancing, traveling, reading a good book, crying at the movies, , laughing at the movies, nature watching, the outdoors, sunrise, sunset, spending a quiet time at home with good music and a bottle of good wine, playing a roll on stage....putting yourself out there and not losing site of the real.
My ideal match is self confident, smart, playful, affectionate, generous, committed, responsible and exciting. His life is on track and he is searching for a compatible partner to intensify and enrich all that he already posses. He is emotionally open to engage in new relationship today while mastering “keeping the past in the past”. P.S. I’m a sucker for a back rub and a big hug.

Life is an adventure, and every moment counts. Being "present" to experience it is the main requirement, whether one is at a concert, in the garden, cooking, or engaged in conversation.
