Date men from United States / California / Los Feliz, 39 year old

Date someone special from California, United States. Hi there, I tend to be pretty easy going, I have my serious moments and I have a strong personality and can be very intense, but I also luv playing around and just having fun. My serious side is usually on display at work and my playful side switches on once I get home. I don't have my mind set on any specific type of relationship I'm open to whatever comes up. Although it would be nice to have a solid relationship mixed in with alot of fun and intensity :=) Most good things start up as good friendships so thats the starting point for me.I enjoy good conversation over a nice bottle of wine or a nice cold one while watching a good game. I have great qualities and plenty of bad ones to although I try keep those in check, anyway the rest is for you to find out. Im not sure what my perfect match would be I think its imposible to determine that since relationships are about compromise not turning someone into what you want them to be. I do believe there should be some common interest and goals that we must share in order to click! Like what? like being honest, loyal, responsible, supportive of each others desires and efforts, and willing to meet each other half way on anything we don't see eye to eye on.
I moved back to LA a few years ago for family reasons, but I do appreciate everything we have out here and I'm looking for someone to enjoy that with. I tore some ligaments in my ankle playing soccer a while back but that doesn’t keep me from trail running, hiking, and cycling to work. The girl I'm looking for understands how important it is to stay active and gets it when I say I need to go for a run, hike, etc She doesn't have to be dragged to join me she wants be right there in the thick of it. It would be nice to meet someone who likes to read and doesn't mind my babbling about whatever book I’m into at that moment. I'm a good listener and enjoy giving feedback on whatever it is we might be discussing. I don't have a predetermined notion of what I'm looking for. It would be nice to meet someone who is ready to settle down but it's not required a good friend is always welcome especially if she likes being out doors. I recently completed a WTC course so I'm looking for someone who would be willing to go on weekend backpacking trips in the back country. Good luck to all of you.
