Date women from United States / California / Napa, 41 year old

Date someone special from Napa, United States. I know what I want in life (for the most part). I am a smart and independent woman who is not looking for a man because I need a man. I am looking for a romantic and intellectual equal who shares joie de vivre and where there is a mutual chemistry. I am a work in progress...I am fit and lead an active lifestyle. I am looking for a man who knows what he wants too and who wants to have adventures in life. I love the unexpected and being spontaneous. I respect growth in a person and feel it also important for relationships to grow. I am always taking on new challenges. I admit I am complex at times, but simple in the fact that I just want someone who gets me and appreciates me for who I am. I can be dramatic at times but it's because I am passionate about life and things I believe in and it is the way I express myself. I am hardworking and can say too much sometimes but I am sweet and a caring too. I don't mean any harm and like people and I am known to get along with lots of people. I don't have conflicts with others and typically play the role of mediator, but don't mess with me either. I am into eating healthy and exercising. I run, take spin at the gym and do cross fit, amongst other things. I am a femine woman who likes to dress nice everyday. The way I dress is one of the ways I express my creativity. I am looking for a strong man who is loving, romantic and communicates, but is masculine and will validate me. I was married 10 years. It ended on friendly terms and I helped raise two wonderful step children who I consider my kids and remain important people in my life. I currently am training for my first marathon (I have done a few half marathons). Please email me if you would like more info (I am not sure what to say and very new at this Internet dating thing...and not real sure about it...) I tend to be direct but really am an open and friendly person. I live my life in that I try not to hurt others and I work in a helping profession with disenfranchised peoples so I really do a lot of self care and part of that is enjoying my non working hours.

Meet a soulmate from Napa, United States. I think we are all looking for the same thing. I don't know why its so hard. Maybe we just get caught up in this rat race many of us lead in our lives. We are all very busy. I've met some wonderful people through this site. I've also met people whom I wished I never had. Can't say this Match is good or bad (its the people on it) It's time for me to move on. Good luck and be safe everyone.................
I am very blessed. I have a wonderful life. I enjoy living every day as if it's my last. I work hard and want to find someone who likes to play just as hard then can relax even harder !!! That special someone that looks forward to everything from weekend get aways (a must) to quiet evenings on the couch, five star dining to making our own five star meal. Looking for my "match"....
I have raised two wonderful children who are my world; literally. I guess that is why I've been out of the dating scene for so long. I'm feeling it now that they have lives of their own. I am hoping if nothing else to meet some great friends but meeting that person I spend the rest of my life with is my goal. I am looking for someone who is in the similar situation. I'm finally at that point in my life where I can be a little selfish when it comes to my time and what I do with it. I am most comfortable in a little summer dress or jeans and a tank top but I enjoy those dress up nights too. I enjoy the simple things in life. I want to laugh, try new things, go new places and look forward to everything possible with that special someone....
I am very fortunate, independent and happy in my life. I have everything I need material wise. I have worked hard for it. I want someone who enjoys new things, can laugh at life, is spontaneous, driven, physically fit and active, kind and most of all honest. Everyday is a new start....I'm so ready. My "A Little More". Where are you?????

Date a woman from Napa, United States. I'm awesome, what else is there to say? I am the most amazing person you'll ever meet. :) But really, I am low key and pretty easy-going. I love the mountains and forests and am happiest wearing my jeans and boots. I clean up well and enjoy a night on the town but you won't find me wearing heels and a skirt everyday. I am sarcastic and I find it really funny when someone falls down (as long as they aren't seriously hurt). I am very independent and not the clingy type. And I'm not into drama which apparently a lot of women are if you go by what is posted on these profiles. I could go on and on how I am just perfect, but really isn't everybody on this site perfect? What it comes down to is chemistry, both physically and mentally. Basically I am looking for someone who will complement my life not complicate it.
I've actually taken a break from this site for awhile because I haven't been too impressed with online dating so far so I apologize if you've sent a message and I haven't responded.

Meet someone special from California, United States. Those who know me best will tell you I am genuine, playful, active, sweet, sincere and fun-loving. That’s a pretty good introduction, I’d say! But I’d add that I’m a person who revels in new experiences, activities and cultures. What else should you know about me? I am formerly from the East Coast—but love living in wine country. I love what I do for a living but make sure there is plenty of time for fun. And I’m looking for a man of integrity and spirit to share in the journey.
The man for me has the right balance of brains and physicality. He is healthy, active and can keep up with me! He shares my love of travel and exploration. And he can keep me on my toes! IРІР‚в„ўm ready to share my time with someone I can really connect with. Could you be the one? Get in touch and letРІР‚в„ўs find out!

Date a soulmate from California, United States. My closest friends would describe me as a loyal friend, smart, adventurous, amazing...I describe myself as hardworking, loving, quietly outgoing and happy. I really enjoy exploring new things and sharing those experiences with my family and friends.
I'm on here looking as much for a friend and someone to adventure with, as someone with whom I can form a long term relationship. I definitely believe that happiness shared is happiness doubled.
I'm an outdoorsy type woman and like to hike, camp and ride horses. I'm working towards being an Ultra runner, and that gets me out and running the trails often. I also like to enjoy live music, good conversation and good food. I love when someone has a passion and wants to share it with me, whatever it is, I like learning something new.
So, if you are interested in hanging out with a fun person, and a happy girl, lets meet!
12/01/11: So, to date, I've received a few winks, a few emails, and only one invite to actually meet...so that we are on the same page: I'm not looking for a pen-pal, I don't want to email interminably, I would love to actually meet! We all have busy lives, I'm looking for someone who is secure in themselves enough to be a man and put himself out there. In this, I'm a little old fashion. I'm not going drive miles to you to meet up, it has to safe and reasonable. Let's go for a bike ride, stop off at a winery, grab a sandwich at a local deli and sit at Veteran's Park and chat. I'm a lady, and I'm reasonable (haha...I know some of you men are saying that this is an oxymoron! :), but I won't waste your time. My free time is too precious to waste! Hope to hear from a sincere gentleman soon, and to meet!
05/30/12: ...so, I took a break for a bit. Still busy, and still looking to meet a nice guy, or a nice guy friend. Only problem is, doesn't seem as if anyone else is interested in meeting. If you wait for the perfect moment, you just might miss it! Carpe diem! :). Go on, I dare ya!
Thanks!

Meet a woman from California, United States. Going online to meet folks is definitely a new thing for this traditional girl. Still getting used to it, but then I'm still catching up with the technological advances of my generation in a lot of other ways too...I didn't even get a microwave until the year 2004, so I'm REALLY behind the times when it comes to this stuff. Don't even get me started on how to hook up the the DVD player-I don't speak Blueray--actually, I miss my Betamax.
I am a Southern Cal native that recently relocated to the Northern Cal wine country. I really love my job and life is great. Now I'm looking to expand that happiness into the relationship arena too. I'm a very poised and polite girl, and I expect to be treated like a lady, please. You could say I'm somewhat old-fashioned when it comes to dating, and I really appreciate sophistication, chivalry, and good manners. I'd like to for you to open doors and make the first call (or email in this case). I definitely appreciate the acts of a true gentleman. That being said, I have a pretty dry sense of humor, so expect some witty banter (aka sarcasm), whether we're hanging out at the local sports bar watching the game or at the ballet. I also prefer gentlemen that don't mind a tall woman--I usually wear some sort of heel, unless I'm at the gym or on a hike, so I'm usually around 5'9 and up in public. Also, I really do get mistaken for much younger--not just sayin' that. I don't have tons of pictures on my profile because I'm still getting used to the online thing--see above. Guess you'll just have to trust me.
I have great friends, and I spend my free time going to concerts and college football games, hiking, taking culinary and wine classes, going to the theater, traveling, taking dance and pilates classes, and throwing great dinner parties. I love to cook and pairing fabulous food with excellent wine is a passion of mine.
I grew up as a Christian girl with traditional family values and beliefs, and my family raised me to have strong morals. I'm loyal, educated, kind, fair, and pretty darn level-headed (no drama, really--ask any of my guy friends!). In short, I'm looking for a real man with his act together, someone willing to take the lead, and who isn't afraid to put his thoughts and words into action. And you must love animals! I have the most amazing dog on the planet - large breed mutt mix--and he wouldn't fit into any of my purses--not even the biggest one I have.
I love to travel, and have had the opportunity to go to some amazing places in this world, including the continents of Europe, Africa, and Asia. I'm not done exploring, though, and I'd love to have an ambitious travel partner to join me in checking out some new time zones! If you're interested (which you must be at least somewhat, since you're reading this), I hope you'll email me. Cheers!

Date someone special from United States. I've lived in the San Francisco Bay Area for almost 17 years, and am new to Napa where I have a new, wonderful, and challenging job. I'm looking for someone to have fun with and to share a few things things I enjoy like food, wine, baseball, art, travel, or weekends away.
Yet, his life is already full and gives him happiness. He is comfortable being independent and has his own hobbies, passions, and friends while wanting a woman to share his heart with. He has a curiosity and zest for the world around him and plays a part in making it better. He sees goodness in people before he sees faults and the spiritual in and through ordinary people and the world around him.

Meet a soulmate from United States. My friends describe me as someone who is nice and crazy. I take things lightly. I'm expert in planning things, work hard for it and never stop until I achieved it.

I'm hoping to find a decent and a responsible person who could be my friend and a great company.
