Date women from United States / California / Palo Alto - page 9

Date someone special from Palo Alto, United States. Dear Sir :-)
thanks for stopping by to read this… i'm looking to meet someone I can create a cozy and exciting connection with. could that happen here?? who knows, right?
IРІР‚в„ўve had a rich and wonderful journey so far on this planet. I was born and raised in Israel and moved to California as a scientist ten years ago. After the ending of my first marriage my focus has been on leading an incredible highly independent life with ambitious endeavors, adventure, solo world travels, successful career across oceans and continents, courageous changes, following dreams fearlessly itРІР‚в„ўs all been truly amazing and I feel very grateful and satisfied in those regards. IРІР‚в„ўm ready to start a new chapter though and settle again and I feel that now my focus is shifting and I want to dedicate my creative joyful energy towards being in a solid relationship and making a nurturing home. I do tend to have strong domestic traits when the situation is right.
My nature is warm and very open, which makes me pretty comfortable around all kinds of people, while offering a sense of acceptance, friendliness and a positive attitude. IРІР‚в„ўm very Feminine, Warm, Fun, Playful, Caring and Honest, and I appreciate natural beauty, beaches, hot springs, kindness and love. I enjoy many long-term good friendships and absolutely adore my sisters and cousins who I visit with in Israel every single year.
In my professional life IРІР‚в„ўm in the midst of a big transition from high caliber scientific/academic research into the world of Yoga and wellness, this has been quite a ride and my new identity is still unfolding which is refreshing and fun. In my free time my favorite activities are dancing, yoga, swimming, being with friends and going for long walks on the beach and in nature - thankfully, i've become less of an intellectual over the years... and these day what's meaningful is peaceful healthy living, the people I love and generally staying in the flow.
In the past few years I have moved mountains to simplify my circumstances and make myself available to fully nourish my personal life, and i'd prefer to be with someone who is also relatively available and wants the same. I highly value peace of mind and clarity and strictly stay away from high drama/high baggage situations, how about you? Hopefully, you've cleaned up your closet too or well on your way in the process.
I think i'll make a good match for an accomplished, worldly man who is comfortable in his own skin, likes to be active, lives healthy, wants to have a place to call home and is ready to enjoy this life. get in touch if this rings true for you.
Happy dating and good luck to everyone!!

Meet a soulmate from Palo Alto, United States. IРІР‚в„ўm a single successful mom who's looking for some fun and companionship (not necessarily in that order). IРІР‚в„ўm widowed and IРІР‚в„ўm not looking to jump into anything immediately but I am ready to dip my feet into the dating pool.
My 7-year-old kid brings me absolute joy and makes me a better person. But it also complicates dating. I realize that for her sake, my standards have to be much higher in the quality of men I seek and expose her to.
I am someone who has an eye for quality but not a perfectionist. I am ambitious and competitive, but can also be laid back and spontaneous. I like watching mainstream and art house movies. I like watching TV but refuse to subscribe to anything other than basic cable. Except every 4 years when I upgrade and stay up at the oddest hours to watch World Cup Soccer games. My latest hobby is single malt scotch, and I am approaching it like I do most things in life - with focus and determination.
I appreciate the finer things in life and would like someone who can share these persuasions with me. I enjoy travel and have travelled quite a bit for business and pleasure. My favorite city in the world is Stockholm (in summer of course). I enjoy simple pleasures like cooking and eating a fine meal, a good book or a passionate exchange of views.
I like smart intellectual guys who can hold their own in a discussion on current and global politics or the latest article on Slate or Harpers. I am attracted to men who are arrogantly smart about what they do because they know their stuff and are passionate about it. I love funny guys who can make me laugh out loud until I snort. I need the guys to be gainfully employed and financially secure. I donРІР‚в„ўt need the money, but knowing that that they are smart about managing their money is necessary for me.
IРІР‚в„ўm not perfect, and I donРІР‚в„ўt expect you to be perfect either. IРІР‚в„ўm not a big outdoorsy person unless itРІР‚в„ўs wandering around in a farmerРІР‚в„ўs market. I'm also a little addicted to the tap tap revenge game on my ipod.
Our first date would be fun because we’ve already talked a bit online and have had the brain sex. We could stroll through a museum, take in a band, or play mini-golf – anything other than the boring dinner.
My idea of companionship is one that is comfortable with equal give and take whether it be a busy weekend driving up to the city to the Academy of Sciences or lazing around on a Sunday afternoon watching a game.
My dream is to wander the highlands of Scotland and hike a bit of HadrianРІР‚в„ўs Wall. Maybe stop and discuss devolution with the local people. And finish the day with a fine glass of scotch.
Please, please don't wink at me. It's downright creepy.. Summon up the courage to drop me a line and say hello.

Please answer only if you want to have a long term relationship.

Meet someone special from California, United States. I am looking for a kind, honest and responsible man with great sense of humor.

Date a soulmate from California, United States. HereРІР‚в„ўs something about me. IРІР‚в„ўm curious and love learning new things. IРІР‚в„ўm so grateful that my career allows me to continue learning every day. I really enjoy travelling, both local and abroad, because it liberates me. I like exploring other cities, people living there and their cultures, interesting architectures or simply new restaurants. I always look forward to planning my next trip, and each year I try to visit at least one new place. IРІР‚в„ўve been to 4 continents and more than 20 countries so far.
I love being in the nature especially if it’s near water – ocean, river, or lake – and prefer doing outdoor activities to working out in a gym. My favorite activity is taking pictures while hiking in the nature. I also enjoy talking to people and notice that people on the street often approach me to ask questions. Perhaps, it’s my positive outlook and big smile. You can confirm that when we meet in person. One valuable lesson that I’ve learned from interacting with so many people is “treat everyone with respect.” I respect others by accepting them as who they are and find that I learn even much more about and from them.
Family is important to me and I value my friendship and have maintained it over decades. People who know me often say that IРІР‚в„ўm intellectual, confident, adventurous, active, trustworthy, kind and considerate. I also want to contribute more to our societies. IРІР‚в„ўve been very fortunate and blessed with many good opportunities and would like to give others, especially the less fortunate, the same. I always try to improve myself because I feel happier when I become a better person and perhaps a good role model for others. I hope to find someone, who together will bring the best out of us, and to become better persons as we grow old together.
Here’s what am I looking for in a partner that will lead to the relationship that I hope for. Besides physical attraction, I’m attracted to a gentleman, who is intellectual, open-minded, honest, considerate, generous and adventurous. I believe these qualities will lead to a stable relationship, which has affection, compassion, trust, respect and lasting friendship. However, I also believe that we need to have patience, dedication (commitment) and willingness to communicate – listening, hearing and sharing – in order to work together on our differences, so that we are compatible and happy as a family and as individual.
Of course, I realize that a person might not have all those qualities, but may have other qualities that fit me even better. So, IРІР‚в„ўm open to a possibility. If you see a possibility between us, letРІР‚в„ўs discover it together.
Although IРІР‚в„ўm looking for a healthy long-term relationship, I prefer to start with being friend with no expectation. A conversation is a good start and I prefer an email. A wink doesnРІР‚в„ўt tell much so I normally wonРІР‚в„ўt reply to wink. But if you email me with specific questions, then I know youРІР‚в„ўve read my profile and I can continue our conversation.

Date a soulmate from Palo Alto, United States. I am happy and very comfortable with who I am but would like share my life with someone. I am orginally from Southern California and moved to the Bay Area about 4 years ago from Mexico. I have also lived France.
I have two great kids (of course with me as their mother!). I work in the high tech industry and enjoy my work. I enjoy spending my free time outdoors. I play tennis and would consider myself an advanced beginner. I recently repassed my Small Boat Sailor certification at Shoreline Lake as I used to sail every summer when I was a kid and want to get back into it. I like to ride my bike in Baylands and enjoy riding slow to see what nature has to offer. I hike up at The Dish and would love to discover some new hiking trails. When the weather gets colder, the kids and I bowl (with the gutter guards up!). I used to snow ski (and water ski) but it has been a while and I want to get back into it. I am not a tent camper but love discovering nature and then returning to a cabin to sleep.
I grew to love wine from my years living in France and can make a lot of great French recipes. I have a goofy side and have to laugh at work at least once a day or I am taking it all too serious. I love musicals, the symphony and rock concerts but I haven't been going as much as I like. My last concert was Taylor Swift with my daughter!
I like a man who has a sense of humor, likes to discuss current events, enjoys traveling and likes to keep in shape. IРІР‚в„ўm looking for someone honest and easy-going who is secure with himself. Someone who understands that kids grow up fast and they are a priority. He needs to feel equally comfortable in shorts and a t-shirt or a tux. He has to like trying something new or something I like to do.

Meet a woman from Palo Alto, United States. I am a SWF, well educated, independent, professional, athletic and in great physical shape. I am looking for a nice man professional, intelligent, and open minded. Mental chemistry as well as physical chemistry has to be there.

Date a soulmate from California, United States. Well - I've been told that I'm a little different. No one believes my age (to the match who emailed me to inquire about my pics - yes these are very recent pictures!) and despite the demure, feminine look, I can banter with the boys. I won't drink you under the table, but I might win a few bucks from you on the golf course! Blame it on my dad - I'm the son he never had (I'll explain in person).
Originally from the East Coast, I was finally brave enough to relocate a few years ago and I'm loving life in Calif. I view life is an adventure where you never stop growing so... what better time to learn golf and snowboarding than in my 30's then bike my first century and run my first marathon in my 40's. These are my latest obsessions. In fact, I consider a bike ride, or round of golf as a good date activity. I get to see if you throw your clubs, swear or keep honest score.
I enjoy dressing up but I am most comfortable in jeans, shorts and flipflops. I love food (I read cookbooks) and enjoy most every type of cuisine from fine dining to burger and fries.
I've got the book smarts and have a thing for the nerdy boys but I appreciate emotional intelligence the most. Win me over with your great social skills, a kind heart, sincerity, honesty, humbleness and a great sense of humor.
I value my family and friends and am looking for someone who shares the same values as I do. I am driven both professionally and in my personal life. I am currently training for my first Ironman triathlon. However, I do know how to chill. Every now and then, I think it is terrific to have a lazy day in my PJ's, no shower, no agenda, maybe a game of scrabble, a card game, or a good movie. I enjoy the simply things in life: a sunset, the sound of the ocean, a good laugh with friends.
I am looking for someone who is serious about finding a good friend, companion, playmate and life partner. If you honestly pursue life with the same level of passion and energy and can laugh out loud along the way with me, then I'd like to meet you.

. It seems that I have everything in my life, except I miss that special someone. I am a confident, outgoing, independent and warmhearted woman. I am emotionally stable and financially secure. My friends describe me as intelligent, communicative, positive, compassionate, kind and trustworthy with a good sense of humor. I am romantic and affectionate. I enjoy having good conversation with people; I enjoy walking along the beach with my special someone; I enjoy yoga, hiking, dancing, art museum and movies. I like traveling. I have been to more than 20 countries so far. I have a successful career and enjoy my job very much, but I also know how to balance my work and life.
I am looking for someone who is ready for a long term relationship; someone who is not afraid of making commitment; someone who enjoys giving and receiving affection; someone who can be my best friend and share my deep inner feelings with; someone who is intelligent, genuine, honest, kind and trustworthy; someone who has a good sense of humor and will make me laugh. I am looking for someone who will melt my heart.
All of my photos are current and were taken within a year. I usually do not respond to "winks". If you are truly interested, please show your sincerity and drop me a line. Thank you.

. On the flight back home from London recently, I sat next to this lovely lady from San Diego, we chatted about life, love, friendship, men, what we want in life as women, especially women like us, who are independent, educated, hardworking single mothers. She shared a successful love story with me - she found her true love from an English gentleman and are having a great time in life. Her eyes sparkled when she talked about him. I was genuinely happy for my new friend. It also reminded me that life is full of possibilities.
Back to reality, Match.com is definitely not the most romantic venue to find love, but for whatever reasons we end up here searching... I wish I could bump into you in my dry cleaner's or during my morning coffee run at Starbucks, it would be so much more romantic - love at first sight, maybe...
Oh well, but I'm here... Here are some facts about me: I live a clean healthy life, I consider myself a responsible person, and always honor my words. I long for close and affectionate relationships; desire true intimacy with somebody I'm deeply in love with.
I'm 5'5", slender and toned, not an athlete anymore, but am mindful of keeping myself fit and look good. I see this as part of being responsible. I am comfortable dressing up in heels and dressing down in my favorite jeans, and maybe occasionally in sweats. I do like fashion and do keep myself in style. I look a lot younger than my biological age (thanks mom and dad for giving me good genes). All body parts are original, no replacements
I'm not looking for a sugar daddy,nor do I want to be a sugar mommy! I'm looking for my equal.
If you are one of those who only uses Match to find temporary flings to fill your empty soul, we are not compatible, please leave me alone.

.
Who I'm looking for is.... to find someone to settle down with who will be my best friend, whom I can talk to about everything & anything. Someone who gets teary eyed when you look at them because they "Love" you as much as you love them! Someone who I will want to rush home from work to see because it hurts to miss them, or for that matter someone whom I will miss as soon as I let go of their hand to go to work in the morning. A romantic at heart, someone who leaves love letters in my purse or in my car...... Someone with whom you can kiss and the feeling of everlasting love tingles your body as you feel the first kiss, with every kiss....
If I spark an interest, please write me.
