Date someone special from California, United States. Friends and family describe me as a generous, strong values, respectful, thoughtful, and playful. In short, I love my life. I like to work hard, play hard, enjoy quiet time, and try new experiences – especially easy because I’m pretty outgoing and not afraid to dive in to new activities. 4 days a week I'm being a dad; taking my son (7) to school, beach, play dates, homework, sports, taking him to places he likes, etc..
I definitely have a playful side. A big part of that is that my love of laughter and pleasure in seeing others laugh. Plus, a good sense of humor is an important piece of a good relationship – it lightens the load and helps us step back and not take each other and life’s various situations so seriously. For me, the simple things are best -- good food, wine, laughter, music, friends, and family.
The right match for me is someone that I can enjoy talking with, and vice versa. I'd be really happy to go on my last 1st date.
Feel free to email or wink.
Meet men and women from California, United States. I recently read an article about Toms shoes founder, Blake Mycoskie, who was traveling in rural Central America and came across a lone traffic sign which read "Reducir Velcidad". Blake was so enamored with the sign and its message that he took a picture of the sign and gave a copy of the picture to each Tom's employee for their desks at work. I was drawn to this story because the message meant to be shared is a realization that I have embraced and want to share with my next girlfriend and hopefully my next wife. Life is about finding balance, breathing and truly savoring simple pleasures.
Me. Since my divorce six years ago, I have kept extremely busy. I have successfully juggled the demands of a stressful yet rewarding career where I have to work East Coast hours with being a devoted father of two beautiful (inside and out) daughters (I share joint custody with my ex) with being a single man who wanted to meet new people and date interesting women. I have been very fortunate and I continue to learn a tremendous amount about myself along the way.
My life is eclectic and my interests vary. I am athletic, enjoy playing and watching sports but I am also very visual and am drawn to art, architecture and design. I am someone caught in the chasm between the left and right brain; smart, analytical, funny, confident yet also humble. I collect art, am well traveled and inherently curious about people. I love great food, wine and appreciate others who are passionate about their interests. A love of music is a must. Shared interests are important and complementary interests are intriguing. A perfect date would be doing anything where we are thoroughly enjoying each other's company be it a nice meal at a great restaurant, a movie at home, a dinner cooked and shared together or chasing food trucks through LA neighborhoods.
I am excited about potential and I truly hope to meet someone with whom I can share a collaborative relationship that will grow and flourish as it matures. Most importantly, though, I am looking for someone who is grounded, relishes her life and is looking for that someone to complement something that is already great.

Meet a man from California, United States. Rough exterior with squishy soft and sweet center. Like a Tootsie Pop. How many licks does it take? Nice guy. Very nice looking. Life of the party (sometimes).
Lucky to be alive as I lost my right leg to children's bone cancer at the age of 15. Can survive that, then can survive anything - that which does not kill me, only makes me stronger.
Need a strong, smart and attractive match, who is both dominant and willing to be dominated. We both need to be equal and willing to share.
Lucky in life and love, and with no specific type, but I know what I like when I see it.

Meet a soulmate from United States. Down to earth and emotionally secure mum and animal lover looking for a friendship that has potential to develop into beautiful, long term relationship.
I was born and educated in the U.K. I exercise regularly and maintain a relatively healthy life-style.......chocolate and a lovely IPA are two of my vices though. I am compassionate, appreciative of life, successful at balancing work, my teens and personal life. I also possess an excellent sense of humour.
My ideal fella......one who is open minded and growth-oriented, is smart in either an educated or a "life experience" way. One who is sincere (no game players), participates in an active life-style, possesses a mischievous sense of humour and strong morals. Also, the ability to communicate is essential.
If I generate an interest and you have a good command of the English language, I'd love to receive an email; otherwise I wish you the very best in finding your play/soul mate.
Date men and women from United States. Self aware, open heart, soft, feminine, soulful, strong,kind, caring, playful, down to earth, affectionate, passionate,love to laugh!!!
I live by the beach and jog regularly, bike on the strand as well as lift weights at the gym. Love spending time in the company of good friends and also enjoy quiet time in nature. I love animals and currently have two cats.
Attracted to men who are spiritually and emotionally balanced with two feet on the ground. Bonus if you can laugh hysterically, especially at yourself. Transparency and affection turn me on. Making it safe to tell your truth without being judged right or wrong…no blame games. Understanding that a commitment to the highest possible WIN/WIN is the only way to go. I give a great massage so nice if you do too :-)
Work as a Licensed Marriage Family Therapist and absolutely love what I do. Started as a Business Major, became a Math Teach in South Central LA in my 20's and went back to school to become a therapist in my 30's. I work with Individuals and Couples in Manhattan Beach and Redondo Beach.
Originally from Wilmington Delaware; east coast girl. Have to be outside when the sun is shining.
Combination of extroverted, good listener, with some shy moments mixed in. Authenticity!!!!!!!! Happy to meet new friends as well as happy to connect with a spark.
Meet someone special from United States. I am a down to earth woman who enjoys the simple things in life. I am responsible but childish in some ways. I have three daughters who keep me on my toes and they are my pride and joy. I am super grounded but silly at times. Basically, I am a woman and a girl rolled into one!
I am looking for a sincere, genuine man and chivalry will sweep me off my feet. Of course rugged good looks help. But then again, attraction is very personal so I will know if and when we meet. I am independent but love sappy expressions of affection.
Date people from United States. Hi! I'm a petite,(105 lbs), fun, happy, down to earth girl who is looking for a funny, healthy, kind, guy to spend time with and see what happens! I can be quite silly at times, and find lots to laugh about. I'm a very genuine and caring person and I'm not the jealous type. I would do anything for the people I care about and hope they would do the same for me.
I love to travel and be outdoors; dining, lounging, boating, hiking, long walks, listening to music, (Zep, Floyd, Sting), comedy clubs, as well as going to movies or renting a dvd and getting cozy on the couch. I'm originally from New York, so I can talk faster than I can type! My family moved from NY to Malibu when I was a tweenager, then I went to college in Arizona, then lived in San Francisco, NYC, and Miami before moving back here again.
I am very social and love talking to people. I am really into Alternative Medicine and living a healthy life. My X and I have a very good relationship, no drama. My twin boys are 7 and keep me in constant motion. They are my life, but I do make the time for me, which is separate. I work part time, and have my own business. My schedule is flexible. I'm looking for a fun, nice guy, with a really good sense of humour, with a very stable income that likes the finer things in life and takes really good care of himself.....and is HAPPY!
Meet a woman from United States. Athletic, smart, funny, loves the outdoors, movies, books, the beach and loves to travel. I know that sounds like every other profile. Its hard to explain or talk about yourself on the world wide web, so to speak...I've seen the world but there is so much more to see and experience. Looking for a good listener, compassionate, great sense of humor since laughter is a must, confident, and comfortable in his own skin and which I can share a good dose of chemistry. That is important for any relationship to be successful. Have all my own teeth...you should have yours!!!! :)
New to all of this so not yet comfortable spilling all my secrets! :) All my pics are recent except the one with my daughter (I just happened to like it! :) )
Love my job, I have been lucky in my professional life and have a kinesthetic side as well, so I keep both sides of my brain relatively active and balanced. I have great kids,( well they are teenagers so that can change on any given day), financially independent and responsible and would like the same in a partner. I can be a bit sarcastic but it is just the quirky sense of humor!! I know its LA but I'm happy to report I'm not on medication or in therapy!...As comfortable in high heels that I am in sweats. (but I throw off the high heels as soon as I get home and am much more comfortable in my jeans.) Being physically fit is important to me and hope to find the same in another! I like those that laugh easily, are educated, have a great smile (did I mention I think teeth are important) and comfortable in social situations because I have 'wicked' great friends! Someone who thinks kissing is the most erotic thing going.
I come from a great family of which I'm really close, and appreciate those that also have a good relationship with theirs.
Just got a new puppy...yes my friends think I'm crazy but life's short...there are no 'do overs'.......
Oh...we are grown ups here...no winking...I won't respond...If you would like to 'chat' please send an email! :)
Although it may sound shallow....you must have a picture posted as well....They say you know within the first 3 minutes if there is chemistry!
Not claiming to be a prolific writer and if you can relate, knowing that writing this profile can be painful.
Distance can make a difference so I prefer sticking fairly close to the Southbay...Nothing ruins a good thing like getting stuck in LA traffic on a routine basis!
My subscription to match ends June 4, 2012, so I'm sorry if I dont' respond. I decided not to renew.
Date a soulmate from Manhattan Beach, United States. Since my account was broken into & deleted I have to write a new profile so this time it will be short & sweet. I have just moved home to Manhattan Beach after living in Jackson Hole for 17 years, it's great to be back!! I'm a fun loving, outgoing person who enjoys living in the moment. I love to work hard/play hard and laugh as much as possible. I have two beautiful daughters who are the light of my life! They are and have been my travel partners but they are growing up fast and are very busy with their own lives now which allows me time to explore more in the dating realm. I would love to meet a man who is successful in his own right but not defined by his profession. Someone who is lighthearted and can laugh at himself, confident but not arrogant, but most all a loving, compassionate man who is honest and would like to enjoy my company.
