Date someone special from Mill Valley, United States. I am a type A personality with a lot of energy and find that I am more balanced with a calm, but confident, partner. I am a full time single parent, to one, and work full time. I am compassionate, passionate, goofy, serious, and loyal.
Meet a soulmate from Mill Valley, United States. Describe myself...
With regard to looks...I'm told I'm physically a cross between 3 women. Perhaps you can guess who they are. People who know me tell me they like my smile, my big brown eyes, and my long legs.
With regard to the other, more important criteria? I grew up in the midwest, moved to California 20 years ago, and am a combination of good fun and good common sense. I love the outdoors. I love children and animals (have both). I enjoy most cultural experiences and do enjoy putting on a fabulous dress and being social at such venues. At the same time, I can hike for miles, take a yoga class, go to any sports event or ride a horse for hours.
My ideal partner is warm, passionate, tall, successful, handsome, and confident. He has a good sense of humor and loves children. He loves being home with me, travelling, attending an occasional social event, and is open to other ideas and venues. He lives in northern California and plans on being here for the long term. One thing to keep in mind...I'll be living here (in Mill Valley) for at least the next 8 years...hopefully forever...so we must be geographically compatible.
If this sounds like you, I would love to hear from you.
Date a woman from California, United States. I have lived in the Mill Valley area for over 12 years... I am originally from the East Coast (NJ) but Marin has become my home. Growing up in very close proximity to New York City, I had the privilege to take advantage of what "The City" has to offer and lived there for approximately 10 years after college. I worked in the fragrance/fashion industry for close to 15 years on the corporate end. I had the opportunity to travel extensively throughout the U.S. and beyond with my job (Cabo, Puerto Rico, Whistler, B.C.). I've also been to Bermuda, Cancun and the Bahamas. I try to spend approximately three weeks with my family back east over Christmas (if possible) and another three weeks in Vermont/Cape Cod during the summer. I would love to go to Europe, Australia and Africa some day. Paris, London and Italy to start. I still haven't been to Hawaii or Tahoe. Sad but true. Though I have yet to travel the world, I know who I am and where I have been. You can dress me up ("black tie") or dress me down ("hole in the wall") and I am as equally comfortable. I can never have enough sexy jeans and I love my shoes! I don't typically wear much make-up, but I never leave home without my lipstick or gloss. Though I relish in helping others, I often find it difficult to ask for help.
Honesty is key, and, for me, real intimacy in any relationship is based on trust. I don't believe in coincidences, yet, I find that everything happens for a reason. I still want the dream (whatever that may be). I just won't know until I am in it!
After almost 13 years marriage, it's time for me to move on. We have a wonderful 9 year old daughter who brings us both incredible joy. For that reason, among others, I am forever grateful.
For now, I am just looking for someone to go out for a drink, a cup of coffee or a bite to eat and, hopefully, have a few good laughs. The rest will follow if the chemistry is right. I can be serious and thoughtful, playful, sexy and romantic. On occasion, I can be somewhat shy. I am creative, resourceful and intuitive. I trust my instincts as they have always served me well. I am confident, comfortable and secure with who I am. I am quite simple yet often times complex. Maybe even an "edge"? Laughter and a good sense of humor I value. I don't care much for gossip or shallow people. I can't wait for that second (and third) cup of coffee in the morning. I love the smell of freshly cut grass or wood burning in the fireplace. I like the sound of crickets and the smell of the beach. My favorite flowers are tuberose and wisteria as I love their fragrance. I enjoy baseball at the ballpark and football on TV. I am more traditional than contemporary (old vs. new). I prefer Fourth of July over Halloween (independence vs. something that I'm not), Thanksgiving over Easter (family/friends vs. religion) and Christmas above all (it's just magical!).
I am not looking for perfection. Thus, I don't feel the need to paint a pretty picture. I mean what I say and I say what I mean, yet often times, I'm still misunderstood! ;) I have often laughed when I am frightened (or nervous) and have cried when I am incredibly happy and joyful while listening to the sound of children sing.
Lastly, a question for you... If we were walking down the street on a sidewalk, would you be to my left or to my

Meet a soulmate from Mill Valley, United States. This is an artificial yet interesting platform for meeting people. Are we desperate or what? Why can't we meet people the usual way? Perhaps there are more options here and the possibility of finding a true match.
After many years of dedicating myself to school, having kids, and a husband, I have realized that I do not have a deep connection with anyone outside my immediate family. And, no, I do not have a personality disorder that would preclude long-term relationships. I have to confess that it has never been a huge priority for me but I am reconsidering this now that I am divorced and sometimes crave having meaningful discussions with people other than the patients I have treated and my family. And I am not particularly inclined to sit in front of a computer telling people on facebook about what I do each minute of the day. I am not sure how many people have embarked on this train. It has turned me off and made it more difficult to make a case for meeting in person. I do have a lot of acquaintances but I have no idea what they would say about me. My friends would say that I am spirited, sexy, and brutally honest although I have had to tone down this last quality.
I am inclined to sit in front of a computer to learn about the stock market as this is a world that it is opening up to me and turns me on. I don't know why as I have associated that type of interest with masculinity and I have been a girly girl for much of my life which includes caring about my general appearance and, yes, I want to be beautiful.
I am interested in meeting people who are confident, boast an adventurous spirit, and who can make me laugh a lot or at least more often than they turn me off. He naturally brings out the best of me, making me feel wholesome and renewed. He respects my choices while helping me broaden my horizon and increase my standards.
He loves warm beaches, beautiful sunsets and makes it a priority to get there. Although he may be fun and animated, he is able to appreciate the power of silence at times when introspection is called for. Finally, he will not misrepresent himself in anyway.
Date a woman from United States. I joined match in the hopes of finding a long-term, committed relationship with someone who is kind, confident, grounded, self aware and emotionally available. I am happy with my life and have lots of good things going. However, I would like to have a partner with whom I can share lifeРІР‚в„ўs ups and downs and special moments, and to grow old with. I donРІР‚в„ўt have children, but IРІР‚в„ўm definitely open to meeting someone who does have children.
My friends would describe me as fun, outgoing, genuine, kind, and occasionally goofy. Notably, I am a Type A in transition to a Type B, because I believe Type Bs are happier and more fun to hang out with. What this looks like: I try to listen more than I talk; I try to give people the benefit of the doubt; I try not to take things personally; I schedule a good amount of unscheduled time. What helped a lot was a career move I made about 4 years ago where I traded in my job for a lower-stress job with a better work-life balance. Although I took a pay cut, I am much happier.
Fitness is important to me. I’m a long-time runner, but over the past few years have tried to incorporate other types of physical activities. A few years ago I picked up tennis and now play regularly. I recently started yoga (and oh-my- goodness it’s challenging and humbling… my tree pose looks more like a dead weed!) My favorite thing to do with friends or partner is going out to a leisurely meal at a nice restaurant. Add a bottle of wine, and to me, that’s a great evening. I don’t do a lot of nightlife, but when I do, enjoy listening to live music in small, dark venues. I love comedy and every now and then I’ll see a play in SF. I love movies, though tend to prefer foreign or indie films – especially the ones that you’re still thinking about when you wake up the next morning. A hike in Marin on a beautiful day followed by margaritas at the Cantina can’t be beat. I cook, and try to make a new recipe once a week. Some of my best dishes are linguine w/clams, salmon, risotto, and chana masala (Indian.)
I have family close-by and see them often. I am lucky to still have a few friends from high school and college. My circle of friends is important to me, and I work hard to be the best friend I can be.
My ideal mate: You’re kind, humble, self-aware and grounded. You’re quietly confident and don’t need to be the life of the party. You’re open-minded and when you travel you’re more likely to go off the beaten path than visit every site listed in the travel guide. You’ve been in love before and want to fall in love again. You think life will be better if you had someone to share it with. You value the art of conversation and enjoy a good (constructive) debate now and then. You don’t always need to be right. You don’t always have to be engaged in an activity to feel satisfied—you believe that hanging out in bed for half a day with a loved one is a perfectly respectable way to spend an occasional Sunday. You love to kiss. You are athletic. You live your life with intention and self-awareness and make deliberate choices that will lead to the things you want. You love animals and children. Most important, you are not bored after reading this profile!
Meet someone special from United States. I am looking for someone to get to know and if there is a spark a relationship would be great. I have a lot of friends and my own business.
I would like to meet someone who likes the great outdoors, the fun of the City, traveling, and relaxing at home.
Finding a match isn't as simple as ordering pizza, so I'll keep the requirements to a minimum.
Date a soulmate from Mill Valley, United States. I'm beautiful, engaging, sexy, fit, and love to laugh. I'm a great listening conversationalist and enjoy drawing ideas out of others and sharing views, points, and counterpoints.
I'm caring in general and in particular of people in need. Relationships with family and friends matter to me. I've worked in both the Fortune 20 and non-profit worlds, and currently volunteer and serve on the board of a few non-profits.
I’m sensitive to nuances in the world but operate from solid core values. I'm independent and have many interests and activities I enjoy but place value on good relationships and make sure I “show up” for them, always.
I have a philosophical streak that shows up in how I think and in conversation; I have good taste and aesthetic in the arts and music. I love travel and the great out of doors, which I find which I find simultaneously relaxing and energizing.
I'm looking first and foremost for someone to share and hear ideas, big and small, with. Idle banter minimal. I'm intelligent, interested in hearing your stories and sharing mine. Differences do attract to some extent but common goals and values, from kindness to financial responsibility/stability, facilitate compatibility. That seems like a good place to start… if we share interests or a spark, we can take it from there, figure out if there’s room to grow.
Thanks for reading! Please contact me if you like what you read and are okay with being in the company of a 5’7” woman who likes to wear heels now and then (maybe more often than not but can discuss as needed :).
Meet a woman from Mill Valley, United States. Hello out there --
I am a writer and photographer who loves to light out for adventures and explore. A sense of humor is one of my favorite qualities in a person, along with kindness, curiosity, and a passion for one's calling, whatever it might be.
I make a living with words and pictures because I love hearing and telling stories and looking closely at life. My days are happily independent of an office -- I work at home or at the library for part of each day, and then usually find my way to something outdoors, either walking the trails or on farms and ranches. I also get to ride for the park service as a volunteer and take care of four horses at a small stable in the Marin Headlands. I grew up in the Midwest, and I have a close family and great friends. I love all the Bay Area has to offer -- I can appreciate a night out in SF, and can also be found hearing music at the Mystic in Petaluma, kayaking, hiking Mt. Tam or exploring the coast near Slide Ranch followed by lunch or dinner on the lawn at the Pelican Inn.
I'm not big on television, and until recently lived happily without one, but I enjoy movies and I think some shows, like 30 Rock, Charlie Rose, Friday Night Lights and Damages are great.
I am loving life, and hope to find a soulmate and companion for the ride -- a kindred spirit whose own interests and dreams I can't wait to nurture and share.
If your spirit feels at all kindred with the above, I hope you'll send a flare! I'll be scanning the horizon...
Date someone special from Mill Valley, United States. seeking friend for activites, adventures and avocations...I'm an irreverent, artistic soul who loves travel, art and foreign movies. I can appreciate the yin to my yang, however and am fascinated by people of opposing interests and points of view. I am interested in witty conversations.
. I am nonjudgemental, articulate, generous and a hopeless romantic. I have worn many hats b4..was a pilot, jet inspector, animal handler, I have taught, I have two incredible kids, was fluent in Russian - a linguist, a jewelry designer and have lived all over. However, there is so much more to do, to experience, to learn... and I want to share that with someone I am passionate about. Someone who takes care of themselves... who still believes that there are epic love stories just waiting to be lived.
I believe in balance. I believe that it is possible to see the ridiculousness in a moment of intense discussion and be able to laugh about it. I am reliable in an emergency no matter how bad, and will cry a little later. I can converse with dignitaries and have, but I have also habitually slid on my knees under a turning jet in the dark. At a young age I felt that life was too short and so began to live it fully... I love to feel needed, to try new things, to surprise someone and get to see their face light up. I can quickly catch an angry goose, soothe and handle an angry bird, bring plants back from the dead and I love to bake. Why does this sound like a strange commercial?
I once flew a high performance 1-36 glider in formation with a heavy callair. I love to run my fingers through a man's hair, make people laugh and smile (my favorite) and I have a lifetime of funny stories to tell. Many have told me that I remind them of Meg Ryan a little. Isn't that sweet?
My flaws: ( I am working on them) I am just a tiny bit like Charlie Chaplin on a golf course, make terrible coffee and still can't surf... I sometimes pull an all nighter reading and camels instinctively hate me.
I love to nurture, surprise and support. I roll with it when someone has a bad experience and will invite myself to your pity party for a little while, and hope for same. However, I never have a "bad day", there is always so much good even in the bad, and I am forever grateful - living in a 3rd world country did that for me. If you adore me, nurture me and love me well, ONE way I respond is by cooking and baking...I do that when I'm happy, and except for coffee I do quite well. I pick up languages rather quickly and enjoy it and I have a bucket list.
I don't have any photos really, I was always the photographer. My hair is curly and shoulder length right now, it was up in a french twist with pins in this photograph. I plan to get photos done soon! I am a unique lady...have elegant nails, yet garden and work at the zoo. I love flowers and lace and yet get all excited about a powerful engine such as an FA-18, a mustang, or a snowmobile. I drive extremely well......and sometimes fast. I have a small belly and the palms of my hands are sensitive.
I am old fashioned in that I love for a man to be a gentleman and open doors etc. and in exchange I love to thank him with sweet kisses. However I am liberal in other ways. I am NOT about judging, gossip, drama or arguing...however I do enjoy thoughtful discussion. I spent time in other Countries, including Morocco (2 years) and so understand a little about culture and people...and I am eternally grateful for the experiences.
I think that what makes any relationship work is respect, humility, the desire to listen and always.., to go for the solution that works. I am a win/win kind of girl in any scenario and like to calmly focus on resolution and behavior modification..and then move on with love and respect. Perspective is key, creating a sense of safety in order to share honestly is key.
Note: It is difficult to first thoughtfully self evaluate, then authentically share those observations with anyone and everyone only to come across scammers. Because of this, while I appreciate your own vulnerability, openness and enthusiasm in sharing your e-mail address, I would prefer to chat on this site for a time. Thank you!!
. I recently moved back to the Bay Area from the east coast. I am very happy to be back near Mt. Tam and the amazing trails. I spend much of my free time outdoors dong just about anything. I am very close to my family and I have great circle of friends. My friends would say I always try to find the silver lining and I have a good sense of humor. I am very affectionate and sincere and I frequently find reasons to laugh. I have had a great career but I am now ready to find my life partner.
My partner is someone who enjoys the outdoors or staying home with a fire. He is someone who appreciates work/life balance. I am looking for someone who can be a best friend and affectionate partner.
. I lean to sarcastic and witty moments and so enjoy a good banter with another. It comes with me thinking quickly on me feet while being able to juggle, adjust, adapt or change circuits as life is not a constant.
I'm part mermaid and being in water helps keep my tail healthy. I feel energized when I am with a man who desires confidence, warmth, zaniness and braininess. Even though I go beyond skin deep, skin to skin time carries an irresistible connection.
