Meet a woman from California, United States. I am a fun and happy person who has enjoyed the good things in life and so appreciative of living in such a beautiful place! I am a huge lover of the outdoors, I prefer to be in a saddle than high heels, but have no problem dressing up for a nice night out in the city. I love animals, especially dogs, and you will find me usually with two or three dogs in tow. I am outgoing, love to try new things, and am also happy to stay and cook a great meal at home. I have started two successful businesses and would love to share my free time with someone who shares my same passions.

Date someone special from California, United States. I am a joyous single mother. For the past couple of years, I have been settling into a family life with my adopted son, now 4 years old. Together, we a have a lovely and evolving extended family and community of friends that we enjoy sharing time and experiences with.
Being self-employed, I am grateful to have some flexibility to adjust my work hours and lifestyle to accomodate the needs and joys of parenting.
I love being in a happy romantic relationship. A good fit for me is a man who wants to build a life together with a romantic partner and is ready for a family.
A good fit for me is a man who is engaged in work he finds inspiring, but that leaves him time and energy for relationships, recreation and vacations.
Must haves for my romantic partner include...
- Generally positive and upbeat disposition.
- Healthy lifestyle and physically fit. I don't do triathlons, strict veganism, and enjoy the occasional cocktail; however, it takes lots of vitality, energy and fitness to keep romance alive while also keeping up with a physically active, energetic and rambunctious three old.
- Generally early-to-bed and early-to rise, except for the occasional dance nights or special events.
A few details that would be nice, but aren't required...
- Bilingual, multi-lingual, or interested in becoming so.
- Short, stylish hair
- Shares interest and enjoyment of Latin ballroom dancing (salsa, cha cha cha, bachata, etc.). I don't want to have to go out dancing without my man.
- Shares love, desire and determination to travel regularly to tropical island destinations in a comfortable style at hotel/resort/live aboard. Has little desire for frequent travel to the snow. I don't fit with ski fanatics. If needed, I can rally for only the annual 1-2 night camping experience, and especially if for the family.
People close to me find me to be high energy and full of contradictions (a true Pisces) I love to laugh and especially appreciate a good sense of humor. I need to be with someone who can see the humorous and sometimes absurd side of life.
I thrive with people for whom healthy fun and kindness are personal priorities. I find drugs, chemical addictions, nasty sarcasm and bad manners all to be romance killers.

Meet someone special from California, United States. Life can be better when you have someone to share it with. I'm an active, sensitive, and adventurous person. I definitely like the outdoors. I look forward to weekend road trips; Tahoe, the wine country, Monterey. I hike in Marin regularly, ride my mountain bike not nearly enough, and play golf on occasion. I enjoy Tahoe and ski both ways; alpine and nordic/backcountry. I grew up in the Midwest... the Land of 10,000 lakes so I enjoy the water and boating. Every day with sunshine is a good day. I work in finance in San Francisco and am fortunate to have a very flexible schedule.
I like going out as much as I enjoy staying in. Sometimes, roughing it is just as good as a 5 star resort. I like variety and trying new places. Past favorites include the Ritz in Paris and Sardine Lakes in the Sierras. Would love to meet a caring, intelligent and outdoor kind of man. I do exercise but prefer an outing to the gym. I rarely turn down a nice restaurant, fine wine and a good meal. I too, love a little black dress. On me...not you. At the very least, I look at Match as an opportunity to meet a like minded guy who is interested in exploring the Bay area, travel, fitness and enjoying life. If it develops into something more, that would be wonderful. I am very interested in finding a partner again and feel I have much to share. I'm sincere, affectionate and appreciative. I take my friends and relationships seriously and am loyal, almost to a fault.
I have two sons, both away at college but still the heart and soul of my life. I miss them terribly, my partners in crime for outdoor adventure. My photos include free climbing the Flatirons with my oldest in Boulder (i was duped-hanging on for dear life) and a visit to Mt. Rainier with my youngest where I made sure I kept my feet on the ground.

Date a soulmate from California, United States. Hello! Life is good. I have a job a like enough of the time, am healthy have varied interests am spiritually unfolding/urious. I've been single for 3 years am interested in creating a LTR. IРІР‚в„ўm attracted to kindness, dry humor, honesty, lots of affection, adventuresome and curious spirits. I'm looking for someone who likes to explore, feels comfortable dressed up or down, enjoys food but is still reasonably fit, and is emotionally aware and somewhat conversant. I think any successful LTR is based on bringing new interests into the relationship, being flexible, having both shared and alone time, and having mutual respect to want to bring out the best in the other partner. Life is also generally easier with consistent affection and communication -- helps keep little issues...little.
I can be shy, outspoken, witty, gently nurturing and occasionally, fiery. Aesthetics are important to me but my creative interests have remained hobbies, not alternative careers. I keep coming back to Nursing—for me, more soul. Even so, when I volunteer, I usually chose manual labor over more people-related activities.
I enjoy being outdoors, mostly hiking, biking and some gym workouts. I exercise 3x/week. Over the years, I've found that I like to sea kayak, SCUBA, river raft, ski (both kinds), snow shoe, crew for sailboat races. Once upon a time, when I was a wee tyke, I flew 172's. I used to play a lot of tennis but have been sidelined by uninteresting injuries. Golf is low on my list but itРІР‚в„ўs OK if itРІР‚в„ўs high on yours. Sharing the company of friends with homemade food or at a restaurant is still a favorite pastime.
I like to read (mostly fiction, especially if thereРІР‚в„ўs a historical context and some good character development) and treasure my on-line subscription to the NYT and snail-mail Architectural Digest. Current events, in their larger sociological contexts, are much more interesting to me than hearing about the daily theatrical machinations and foibles of our politicians as they make (a muck of) history. I enjoy occasionally attending ballet, opera (more for the set design and costumes than music), lectures on museum exhibits/world events. I prefer to listen/watch the public radio/TV stations rather than the primary networks, although Weeds, Project Runway, The Tudors have been favorites.
Favorite quotes: "To begin is easy, to persist is art." German proverb; "Education is learning what you didn't even know you didn't know". Daniel J. Boorstin. Every Life needs a little space. It leaves room for good things to enter.
In the last 2 years, I traveled solo to Spain, D.C., Seattle, N Minnesota for dog sledding, NYC and Portland. My most successful trips have involved a GPS, a rental car, and my laptop IРІР‚в„ўm scheduled for tandem hang gliding off Mt. Tam "soon" (fickle weather), and thinking of a multisport trip to the Baltic area or Turkey/Italy/Croatia in 2013. My bucket list is constantly evolving but IРІР‚в„ўd rather share it with my honey.

Meet a woman from California, United States. I am interested in meeting a man, who can match me on most levels. A loving man, who is kind, cute, intelligent, fun, exciting and sexy.
A real person, that finds things interesting and exciting. He gets the concept of how important "being in the moment" is. I love to travel or just hang out and watch a movie at home with a fire going. I like having my friends over for dinners, and after a game of dominos or cards.
I love how my kid's turned out and I am proud of my family and friends. Most importantly, I am looking for my best friend. Someone who can work in the garden with me, swim and hike, and cook with me, or just watch me cook!!
He must be able to flow easily between being in jeans and a t-shirt to black tie. Kissing and cuddling, and holding hands, are important too.
Its also great for me to have my time away from the action, to rest and just sit in the sun and sleep. My life is really active so its nice to have someone who can just lay back and chill.
I also cherish my alone time, I know we all need to be alright with being with ourselves not always having to be doing something or being with other people. Its critical to who we are to love ourselves too!
We all know how hard it is to keep things exciting and happening, so I am looking for a man that appreciates that and is inventive and creative, with lots of surprises in store for each other.
A trip to Bora-Bora is one of my favorites. A one tank dive, and then back to the digs for lunch in the sun. Napping, after a fantastic meal with lots of fresh organic fare is a must. Walks during sunsets, or at dawn on the beach, when the full moon is gleaming over the water listening to the frogs and the rustling of the palms and just the silence is so sweet.
Doing things out in nature, is very inportant to me. I love the warm ocean, and I am an accomplished diver and skier. Breathing the air from my tank while I take pictures of sharks and whales is the best.
Heading straight down the steepest groomed slope with my music is a blast. Being up on the mountain is where I have such clarity about life, and those " A Hah, " moments.
My friends would say that I am inventive, creative, well mannered with a spice for life, honorable, kind, great cook, loving, and when it comes to a emergency they call me. I have confidence and my social skills are a quality that is lost these days. I take care of myself and care about how I look, in a healthy way.
There are still so many things to do and experience. Having a positive attitude goes a long way with things so crazy in this world. So
bring your A game to the table, and I promise I will too!

Date someone special from United States. I am an energetic, attractive and fit woman who loves to laugh. I am a single mom to two sweet and happy boys. Sometimes I feel like a combination of Mary Poppins, Myrna Loy, and Catherine Zeta-Jones. (It's a good thing...) My life is full of loving goofy friends, family and lots of activity. I love my job as a wine wholesaler and loved my first career in New York performing in musical theater(seems like a zillion years ago...) I feel blessed to live where I do- the beaches, mountains and GREAT community. I am happiest when having an evening with dear friends and having my guy shoot me a sexy glance from across the room. I love being active outdoors but there is definitely something to be said for cuddling on the couch watching movies. I enjoy my independence but am ready to be once again half of a loving couple. I am excited to meet: a sweet, smart and funny guy who loves kids and knows that the real adventure in life comes from not mountain climbing or traveling to Bali, but building a life of love and laughter with beautiful friends and family...(although don't get me wrong, Bali is great...) Please be fit and energetic with a passion for life.

Meet someone special from California, United States. Often I'm told I am very warm, engaging, funny and very female. My father instilled that, always hugging us or holding our hands when we were young. I'm pretty simple in that I like being feminine and most definitely want a masculine guy. I do want someone who has lots of interests - is excited about life - has good friends that he sees and sometimes, we see together.
My family traveled west to LA when I was 12 from the east coast. I attended junior high and high school there - (no, I didn't become a Valley Girl - at least I never felt like one:) I decided to explore the Bay Area and picked a college there...it was great, but LA called again, and I returned to find myself married and with two great kids. After a while, we transplanted ourselves in SF where we lived for 15 years. I've been in and out of the restaurant biz for 15 years... currently I'm in event sales for a longtime SF company.
I'd prefer that my mate have kids who are out on their own... it can get complicated with all of the scheduling, etc. Having a best friend is my top priority in a relationship - trust, love and wanting to be part of the other's life and not afraid to embrace the great moments as well as the not so easy ones that we all know happen. Most importantly, talking about things we are feeling or experiencing is important. Exits are easy... working it out is the stuff of champions.
An English major in college and to this day, love writing - perhaps, one day that great American novel (or screenplay?).
I need to feel in balance and don't like most extremes. When the scales seemed tipped, I will set out to make it right immediately. Fairness, honesty and love of living mean everything in my daily routine and I want the same in my guy. I need to admire and respect him, so ethics and similar values mean a lot to me. I enjoy being with a strong man but I don't want him to be afraid to share his feelings...
I like men who are strong and aren't afraid when a woman shows her strength, but instead admires it. I think it's very cool when we attend a party or event and he makes sure I know he's there with a wink, hug or smile but not attached at the hip.
Here's something important - fellas, don't send those winks, smiles or add me to your favorites. I truly delete them and the profiles attached. It is sort of like not caring enough to walk across the room and say hello....
Finally, please make me laugh!

Date a soulmate from California, United States. I am walking through a door right now of freedom I have not experienced in years. I have a wonderful group of friends and family. I have successfully launched my son off into the world and could not be more proud of him. I have work I love and flexibility that I appreciate. I am very grateful for all I have in my life and would like to share time with someone who feels the same. It is an exciting new chapter and I am looking for someone interested in playing, traveling, relaxing. I am independent, love and need my alone time, and am "low" maintenance. I enjoy life. I love to laugh, and would rather take life not so seriously, but like to have serious intelligent discussions on many topics. The rest is chemistry!

. I'm deeply curious about the world and love to meet new people, discuss ideas, and see new places. Caught between two coasts: New York born and influenced, California sensibility.
I'd like to find a man to share the joys of life: hiking, sailing, dining out with friends, volunteering, and traveling.
While, I admit to having a "fashion gene" - blame it on my mom and time spent as a model- I prefer a casual lifestyle.

. One great thing about having life experience is is knowing yourself--what you need and what works. I'm a hard-working woman who is employed with a big corporation--which includes a big schedule. One aspect of my life that needs changing is to re-prioritize my life to have less work and more of a balance of my time. Right now--it's pretty much dash and crash.
I eat right and exercise regularly. Some people at work love to tease me and say that I must have been born in high heels--but, really; it's just a rumor;-). I actually love my jeans on weekends, and like to kick back, browse the farmer's market or go hiking and appreciate nature. I love dressing up and dining out by candlelight, but my friends and family usually end up at my house for large dinners on holidays (come to think of it--any excuse for me--not them--to cook).
I'm originally from New York, living in and around the metropolitan area, most recently in beautiful Princeton, NJ, until I made the big move to the Bay Area over 10 years ago. Now I'd say that I'm fond of both areas, each for very different reasons. New York is my hometown, although No. California can't be beat for its natural beauty. Sometimes it still takes my breath away...
I'm very at ease in social situations, connect easily with people and am energized by my realtionships with family and friends. I have two wonderful grown sons who are on their own now, but we're very close and enjoy each other's company. Having children at a young age quickly taught me that it's not 'all about me' and my children have brought levity and joy into my life.
Which brings me to the "now" chapter of my life.
I'm looking for a man who appreciates the arts, ballet and concerts; but has a range of cultural and musical tastes. I'd prefer a professional guy who is first and foremost thoughtful, then intelligent, educated, urbane, sophisticated, loyal, but has no trouble laughing at himself. It's important to me to have someone in my life with a great sense of houmor, and a great capacity to care. He would be a responsible, well-read, one-woman-man who possesses clarity of who he is and the confidence to express it. Someone a tad traditional but not the least bit boring, sappy or self-important. You are curious about life and cultures as I am, and are interested in traveling to far-away places, but also love to stay at home with your best girl for an intimate dinner and catch 60 Minutes on a Sunday night. You love short weekend get-aways to unwind and maybe see the snow or the beach for a change--in short, my idea of a Renaissance man.
I'm not looking for many, but one wonderful guy to share good times, good food and great adventures! I know that you're out there-and that you've been looking for me.

. Happy, easy going, high energy gal....no drama. Emotionally and financially stable.
Love my job (home office) with great trips/travel, can work anywhere on west coast. Hard worker at home or office, just wired that way. Looking for someone to cuddle with on the couch watching tv, eating popcorn....someone I can share common interests with or maybe you can teach me new ones. Simple traditional core values: trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, respectful, kind, etc. . I was in a long and successful marriage, but it ran its course and IРІР‚в„ўm now excited about starting a new chapter.
Love to travel....my parents live in Toronto, brother lives in Sapporo, sister lives in Jakarta
Very cose to my family and friends. A sense of humor and fun (important!)... love to laugh and try not to take life too seriously.
