Date men and women from United States / California / Los Angeles, 45 year old

Date someone special from Los Angeles, United States. I consider myself attractive, classy, independant, motivated and very career driven. I am easy going with a great personality and single by choice lol. My company relocated me from Miami two years ago and now I am a proud SoCal resident. I hold a professional MBA in Business, speak English, Spanish and Portuguese. I like to excersise, movies and travel to different countries evertyime I get an opportunity
Friends would describe me as down to earth with strong family values, great sense of humor, adventurous but grounded, well traveled, educated, very ambitious and overall a pretty happy person.
I'm looking for a girl who will make me smile , someone who has a great personality, personable to others, confident, kind, creative, driven, romantic, loyal, and grateful.
There's so much more to tell but I believe it's not until two people meet can they know for sure if theres chemistry and compatibility.

Meet men and women from Los Angeles, United States. I'm a fun guy with serious intentions.
A hard worker, a favorite uncle, an engaging conversationalist, an inquisitive mind, an INTJ, an animal lover, a seasoned traveller, a mediocre drummer. Among other things.
My values are strongly Midwestern, 'cause that's where I'm from. That means you try do the right thing all the time, even when nobody's looking, even if you get dinged for it. It does not mean, however, that I'll let you beat me when we play tennis, chess, darts, pool, etc. I wouldn't mind spoiling you a little, but you'll have to beat me fair and square.
I do want to have a family of my own someday. I'm not here to screw around.
I love discovering new music, art shows, sunset hikes, my road bike, impromptu living room dance parties, cooking on my grill, disappearing into a good book, dropping into a strange culture, fixing up my house, throwing the ball for my dog. I love the simple pleasures most of all. There are richer guys, there are better looking guys, but you'll be hard pressed to find someone more genuine, unjaded, down to earth.
I'd love to talk to you (yeah, actual human conversation) if I've made any kind of favorable impression…

Date a soulmate from Los Angeles, United States. If you are a mysterious and passionate nerd, artistic, visual, musical, comic, into the arts, and you're looking for a best-friend lover... I recently discovered that if you use the word 'didactic' in a sentence, and/or wear glasses, I may experience rapture.
Here is the section where I might scat and spin about my life as an international spy, or my extreme charm and humility. Insert appropriate online profile text here. Suffice it to say-- and this part is sincere as a chocolate cupcake --I seek a muse-and-soul mate for cultural/culinary adventures, dancing, scorching romance, great kissing, hair pulling, biting, scratching, and laughing. I will bring all the same to you, with passion and fun (cliche but so be it). Also-- Live theater, music, craving the symphony lately-- and I do love movies. Too many to name, I go for both the hi and low in this. Sometimes great trash bubble-gum popcorn, also a taste for high-culture indie and foreign fare. I shy away from self-proclaimed masterpieces like 'extremely loud and incredibly pretentious' although I hear that was quite good.
sidnote: do you related to this rant?
Does everyone on Match love long walks on the beach at sunset? Does everyone here workout 9 days a week, including lots of surfing and swimming after doing that triathalon? Do we all recycle, volunteer, and our dogs and friends think we're extraordinary human beings? I hope not. What a bore. I couldn't bare it without some indulgences, idiosyncrasies and dark places. If it's all fluffy bunnies in a field of daisies, bliss, and enlightenment, I might go postal. I do some of these things, but I don't walk on water.
End of sidenote, no continuing-- I came out of UCSD's visual arts/media program back in the day, and then produced theater for a long stretch. 15 years, 45 productions, 1200 performances. Even a bit of radio. That was my past life. It was a great ride, but other endeavors called.
Faith and spirituality of most varieties-- conventional or otherwise-- let's just say if you are gifted that way, a priestess, bring it on. Factoid about me: My ex-wife was the daughter of an Episcopal priest who was half native american. Factoid#2- I have no kids no baggage from that or elsewhere.
Continuing: Interior journeys. Word pictures. Overuse of my own style of punctuation. Dancing, sure. Sentence fragments. Great conversation. Entertaining with friends, or at an open mic night. Cooking. Red wine (wine only comes in one color for me). I can be a total hedonist when it comes to food. Los Angeles is an endless source of discoveries. I love to get off-the-grid and discover new finds. Am I sounding pretentious? Bust me for it. I hate small talk, I just prefer deeper water. I like to get to the soul of the matter, and quickly.
I believe in jump-cuts over transitions. Blink, bam.

Meet people from Los Angeles, United States. Well here goes,..
I wont say more than hello when I see someone I'm interested in on this site. I don't want to pour myself into an introduction and get no response. I don't know how I feel abpout the woman who say "Say Something Clever", or "Be Original" Maybe Hi is original for that person....Maybe up until that moment they had been Saying something so ridiculous and they figured out why they were still single. So "Hello" was the simplest thing he has done his whole life.
And it wasn't eneough.....
Now right off the bat, a woman needs something sparkling to keep her attention? Is that how we start of a long term/marriage minded relationship. I gotta do a back flip and walk in with background music...How do I follow that. More importantly what would you do??? Impress me please. I'm the other half of the potential relationship.
Good. if you've made it this far, GREAT. I love to cook, I will always cook for our friends. love having people over. Have them bring the wine. Reidal Glasses please..I love being outside, Golf, Tennis, fishing , walking aroung farmers markets. down the boardwalk etc. lets go. already.
lookign for someone real. I don't care if your ripped, I'm not. I was but I like to eat adn have fun. I was married and when she hurt her knee and put on weight I could care less. I didn't meet her at the gym so I was cool. I spent my egotistical years as a model and a comedian. I'm good now. Let's go grab a glass of wine and chill after work.
Not into BBW, sorry if your "fit" that's cool I like athletic. Going to the gym 5 times a week is great, but if I toss you my keys and they bounce off your forehead you're not an athlete. You're just hot now. looks change. I'm so attracted to nice. I'll take nice and average over superhot and standoffish anyday.
Looking for a person who can communicate. If your profile starts out with "My friend say I'm...." Can I go out with your Friend ( If they're female) They sound like they clearly know how to expres themself. Just be open I am.
I prefer to talk rather than type. Face to face over facebook. If we start communicating we should meet soon. I don't want to be on this site forever. Not desperate....I will know it when I see you as you will.
Please look like your picture. no prom photos.
I can go on and on. but at the end of the day I'm pretty simple. I play the drums, love music, I'm a foodie, and I completely realize that with the right relationship, I will add more to what I am.... and have heard I'm pretty funny.

Date someone special from California, United States. I'm a good hearted, well driven and intelligent man with a great and down to earth personality; who is mentally on his positive game and element, as a result of my 7-day gym exercises and workouts and my spiritual side.
I always believe that dating someone should endeovor beginnning stages of friendship first, and if God pemits, then begin building a foundation that will lead towards committing to a relationship. There is no rush for love!! Love will always be there, if we find it in the right place at the right time.
I love to workout!! Along with hitting the beach to get an occasional savage tan...lol! bike ride and/or take nice romatic walks around soothing sound of the ocean; I like to go dancing and get footloose; wine tasting; hit a good movie...etc. and much more, which are presently on my bucket list.. lol!
I'm hoping to find a woman who is self confident, funny sense of humor, a great sense of living a life of prosperity, a woman with a humble heart, and who has heartfelt compassion towards people and especially towards her partner; i'm hoping to meet someone like this someday.

Meet men and women from California, United States. I know, I know, I know: why are there no photos of me waterskiing, or snowboarding, or playing ball in the park, or ziplining on Catlalina Island? The answer is because I never go outside. Ever. Not even to get the mail. Seriously...I have no idea what the answer to this questions is...these are just the pics that I happened to like the best, and even they aren't all that great, in my opinion. Then again, why aren't there any pics of me with my shirt off, leaning on the fender of my sportscar? Because you've seen THOUSANDS of those pics already, and if you see one more, you're gonna be physically ill, maybe? Well, so, anyway, I guess the question is: how to describe myself without sounding like every other guy on here, and yet also without sounding like I'm trying to be different. I'll just tell you what I can...I'm an attorney (formerly a cameraman in the film industry) who happens to also be a musician. I spend a lot of time playing the guitar and singing, both in front of audiences, and by myself (or with friends). It's my passion. I love to go out to concerts and live shows, I love to cook, and to go to the beach (bodyboarding at Zuma!). I love driving, going to movies, going out to restaurants, and staying in (when I'm with the right person). I work out, and have studied two forms of martial arts, so, I'm in shape. I'm very well-educated, kind, honest, spiritual-without-being-religious, trustworthy, funny (usually in a sort of dark and twisted way--either you'll think I'm hilarious, or you won't "get" me). I'm very sensual, and attentive (this is good, right?), and I'm ready to work toward something lasting, with the right woman. I like women who are smart, honest, interesting, independent, educated, sexy, and classy, If you're interested, I'd love to hear from you!

I walk my own path, so I would need Someone that has their own swagger, style , and not a follower.

Meet people from California, United States. Random things you need to know about me:
- I work out 6 days a week (hence the cheesy posing profile pic)
- I have a job I love as a social security advocate. It doesn't make me rich, but it makes me happy helping people
- I absolutely despise playing dating games. I'm not going to posture and pretend to be less interested in you to keep you intrigued. It takes more confidence to be honest when you like someone than to play cool and aloof
- I love Vegas and visit regularly to see Mom and Dad, who live there. I'd love to travel more, just need the right woman to go with
- Love movies, play golf whenever I can and read voraciously
- I will not continue reading any profile in which a woman says she's used and/or expects the finer things in life or wants a successful man. Those are wonderful traits and not unreasonable, but making them a requirement is like a guy saying that he needs a woman to be buxom and promiscuous.
- I cannot grasp the concept of a woman not wanting to date a man who she finds to be "too nice."
- Like everyone else, I'm looking for true love, but I've learned that it doesn't mean the person is perfect, only that she's perfect for me
Also: I am in not interested in chatting with anyone outside the state of California. If you are not within my distance parameters, please do not contact me.

Date single man from California, United States. I guess this is the part where I try to "sell" myself. Hmmm.... Well, I could spend a couple hours crafting a cute and funny bio where I tell you what I think you want to hear and share how sensitive I am and how I like to watch foreign movies and take long walks on the beach while the sun sets, and blah, blah, blah....
But I'd rather "keep it real" so here I am:
I see life as a gift that must be lived to the fullest and we are judged in the end by how many people we helped during our short time here. If you agree with this then we'd probably be friends. I am a survivor and believe I should not take advantage of the chance I've been given.
I was a proud soldier and experienced war but believe there is a better way. I am a political junkie and a left leaning independent. I can't stand being around bigots or people who are selfish, greedy, or shallow. I believe what I believe but respect people who I strongly disagree with. I am attracted to women who are independent, intelligent, have a passion for life, compassion for people, and give a damn.
O.K., so here comes the corny part: I do believe life is a journey and I'd like to take this journey with someone. :)

Meet a man from California, United States. Hi, I'm very kind, generous, respectful, and have a great sense of humor. I can be sensitive but I'll always make you feel safe and protected. I've been told that I have a nice smile, but you'll have to be the judge of that!
Looking for friends, a nice conversation over a cup of coffee, and lots of laughs.
Not one to write about myself, but if we meet I will open up and show you the true man that I am.
