Date men and women from United States / California / Pasadena, 44 year old

Date men and women from California, United States. So seriously… How does a guy write about himself and NOT sound like a cartoon used car salesman with slicked back hair and pearly white teeth!! Buy today and we’ll throw in a no BS warranty with guaranteed happiness for the next five years!! Blah blah blah…
About me? Well, I live an interesting life, am surrounded by interesting people, and realize it’s not about the destination; it’s all about the journey! All I need now is a travel companion, physically and metaphorically. My work keeps me busy, challenged, traveling, and engaged a lot so I try to make the best of my spare time. I enjoy several types of outdoor activities; hiking, swimming, boating, camping, etc. I also love the arts; music, entertainment, performances, exhibits. I work in the live event industry so I have a professional as well as personal interest in any type of live event. I love people watching and observing physical reaction and non-verbal communication.
Though I enjoy watching sports, I have not had the time to get addicted to any of them (you don’t have to worry about becoming a sports widow with me…).
I am a father to two extremely wonderful and unique daughters, they never cease to intrigue, amaze, and mesmerize me with their wit, intelligence, and beauty.
I am a lot older and wiser than I was the last time I tried to play the dating game and my “expectations” have changed quite drastically. I am looking for a woman who does not have an affinity for games or drama, a person who is real and not afraid to show it. A person who understands the concepts of grace, forgiveness, communication, trust, faith, and integrity. Someone who knows how to have fun! A person who can not only speak their feelings and emotions but demonstrate them as well. Someone who knows how to touch and be touched, both physically and emotionally. A woman who still believes in magic, miracles, and romance.
After re-reading this profile I realize it does not say a heck of a lot about me in detail, I guess that just means we will have more to discuss in person over a nice dessert or glass of wine. Thanks for taking the time to read this. Good luck on your search.

Meet a man from California, United States. I'm originally from Portugal, but was born in England, and lived in Canada, Brasil, and Saudi Arabia. Came to Pasadena, CA to do my PhD 19 years ago, and it's too sunny to leave (even compared to Portugal!).
For fun, I am currently taking piano lessons at PCC (absolutely fantastic way to learn!!! 3rd semester and still going strong!). I like to go surfing on the weekends, as well as walks along the Arroyo. I also enjoy painting (after 5 classes from Intro Drawing to Head Drawing and Head Painting at the ArtCenter), but haven't done it in a while. I do love to go to art galleries and exhibits. I also practice Tai Chi and Qi Gong meditation.
I love science, in particular neuroscience, psychology, philosophy, and quantum physics. My PhD was in Computational Neuroscience, and I am currently having a lot of fun developing a sensory substitution device that enables someone who is blind to "see with sound". I also like to keep up with current affairs, and try to maintain an understanding of what's happening throughout the world.
I believe the world is an amazing place with a million things to do and discover, and I want to find someone that I can love and share that world with. I'm looking for someone who is similarly curious about everything under the sun, enjoys the outdoors, and believes that cuddling is a key ingredient to happiness.

I just rejoined June 30 2012!!! It's summer, the days are long! Let's go for a walk in the Arroyo, the Huntington Gardens, or a concert at the Levitt Pavilion!

Date single man from California, United States. I am an honest, sincere, compassionate, fun loving person looking to meet like-minded people with similar values who like to have fun and share good times with friends and family. I work hard, but my job is very rewarding and I am grateful to be doing what I do.

Meet people from California, United States. Depends on how I'm feeling...Usually I'm very energetic -- always got something to do or somewhere to go. While I don't need to have a bunch of people around me all the time, I do like hanging out with friends. Do I ever get bored? Nope. I cherish my down-time and don't need constant stimulation.. Mental, that is;). I prefer being spontaneous versus planning out every moment: like the time I told some friends of mine that I'd join them in Vegas for cocktails and dinner. They thought I was joking! I'm open to just about any type of music. Once again, it depends on my mood. As far as food goes, I'll try just about anything once. If it's really exotic AND looks appetizing, I'll have to taste it before finding out what it is.
I am looking for someone who is uncomplicated and down to earth that likes to laugh, interested in meeting new people and is open to new experiences.
Well, that's about it for now. If there's anything more you want to know, just ask!

Date a woman from California, United States. Ok online dating, I'm trying it. I am newly single and a little apprehensive about meeting up with strangers from the internet, however it's not like I am meeting a ton of great guys on my own, so why not.
I am easy going ,I love to laugh and meet new people. I am a vegetarian, but not crazy with it. I eat fish, I love sushi and My favorite junk food is Ben Jerry's Chunky Monkey. I love sugar free Monsters and 5 hour energy shots too. I am very creative, singing and songwriting. I love to build and fix things. Last summer I built a vocal recording studio from the ground up. I also love anything that has to do with gardening. I go to my garden when I want to sort out things. I go to my studio when I want to disconnect and create. I also love investing in and tradiing stocks, I follow politics and I have a listen to what what the media has to say about the economy. I come from a republican family. I believe in free trade and the American Dream. I'm probably not a good "match" for a democrat.
My friends would say I am very honest and trustworthy, maybe to nice to the wrong people sometimes, a little gullible, but very intelligent and I've been told by more than a few people that I make the best salads and dressings that they have ever tasted.
I like guys that are confident, but humble. A man that knows how to dress up or down, and stay well groomed is definitely a bonus. Guys who are not afraid of a mani-pedi are sexy. A great smile is essential. I like art festivals, street fairs, dining in or out, live music, beaches, movies I love all of that. Must love dogs. I have 3 little dogs, they are very clean and well cared for and well behaved. They are my little angels. If you don't love animals especially dogs, we are probably not a "match". And what the heck is wrong with someone who does not love a cute little doggie, right?
Looks are important, but like everyone says," it's about chemistry "and things that are pretty hard to pick up from a picture and and self described bio.

Meet men and women from United States. I am looking for someone who is confident in who he is, enjoys life and has a positive outlook on things. I enjoy going to Santa Barbara or Palm Springs on the weekends. I like to play more tennis too. I'd like to be with someone who enjoys outdoor activities.

Date someone special from United States. Before actually putting my profile on match, I read a profile that said..looking for someone "normal" and I could totally relate to that. I am not looking for "Mr. Perfect", just someone who has a job -lol, is ambitious but does not sweat the small stuff, and just likes to go out and have a good time. I enjoy dining out whether it be a new trendy restaurant or a local favorite. I like to get dressed up for a night on the town as well as staying home renting a movie and ordering pizza. I like to exercise and eat healthy although I have a weakness for all things chocolate ;)
My match would have a great sense of humor, a sense of style (no white socks with black shoes).. :), and exude confidence (that would be confidence not cockiness!) He would take care of his body but not be afraid to abuse it every once in a while during a fun night out or a weekend in Dewey beach (east coast.) His subtle gestures make me feel like the most important person in the room.

Meet a soulmate from United States. I was born in Montreal, Quebec. I had plan on being in the U.S. for a year but ended up staying. I came to the U.S. as a nurse traveler. I lived in Tucson and Seattle before settling in SoCal. I became a US citizen in 2006. I enjoy the simple things in life but also the finer things as well. My friends would describe me as easy going, loyal, and fun. I, like most women, am searching for someone who is funny, respectful, and kind but chemistry has to be there as well. I am in search of a companion who will enjoy an adventure of possibilities with me: whether it be traveling to exotic locations, a walk in the park, or a romantic dinner at home. I look forward to the endless moments to be shared with that special someone.
