Date men and women from United States / California / Pasadena - page 17

Date a man from United States. I’m generally laid back and I have a pretty good sense of humor (clean to raunchy). I enjoy cooking for friends and family. I’m active and run three to four times a week. I enjoy reading, movies and music as well as the arts. I have a bachelor’s degree in political science and I’m currently working and just trying to enjoy life, family and friends. I'm really not quite sure how to fill all of the space provided; more is not necessarily better. I'll try to fill this in with something interesting (probably at my peril). I enjoy non-fiction literature (science, history, etc.); most music (I frequently listen to alternative and rock); the arts (museums, parks, music etc.); I love cooking and dining; I love movies (science fiction, comedies and action). Politically, I consider myself a moderate though I'm constantly being accused of being a liberal (I watch a lot of Colbert and the Daily Show). Rambling on, I've probably cut the potential dating pool down by half. Anyway, I hope I written enough to spark some interest.

Meet men and women from United States. I'm a nice, polite, well educated guy who enjoys laughing and having fun. My friends say I'm smart and fun to talk to. Spending quality time with the right person is most important to me. Some people tend to focus on particular activities, but for me, activities themselves are not as important as the person I'm with-- with the right person, we can have fun sharpening a pencil.
I'm an affectionate and loving with a great sense of humor... like to hold hands. I can always make people laugh. (I've performed stand up comedy at the Ice House several times!) However, until I am 100% comfortable with someone, the humor doesn't come out as much. My sense of humor is somewhat juvinile... Like a 15 year old kid. Having said that, I'm a bit introverted at the very beginning.
As a good and loyal friend, people tend to seek my advice. I have a way of analyzing situations to bring some clarity. It's kind of a gift, and I enjoy it. Sometimes, I need advice too.
I gained some weight recently from eating too much cheese and junk food. And when Ben and Jerry came knocking, I answered the door. I have a belly right now, but I'm back in the gym 3 times a week and eating right. My belly should be gone in a few months. For now, my belly and I are unwillingly attached.
My match... looking for:
A woman who I can be friends with as well as romantic. An equal partner. Stability. Time for a relationship. She has a good life. Intelligence. Sense of humor. Attractive to me. Attracted to me. Some independence. Chemistry. BUT... There is only one must have for my match, and that is a peaceful, calm, easy going, personality. The key is peaceful and calm. Drama with too many ups and downs makes me kind of crazy. Of course I know every relationship has ups, downs, conflict, etc. But... some have less then others... I need the low end of the spectrum. Peaceful and calm.
RANDOM STUFF I LIKE TO DO: Watch that guy on Travel Channel eat gross food. Play some scrabble/Words w Friends. Ride motorcycle. Watch Gold Rush. Shop for amazing, blow it out the door bargains. Eat strange food. Walk around. Have interesting conversations about nothing. Go to the grocery store and impulse buy. Watch cooking shows. Go to work. Think. Make people laugh. Look out the window. Make hot chocolate. (I make the best hot chocolate in the world with my SECRET ingredient) Eat home cooked food. Hang out with Jeff. Read Mac World. See funny movies. Eat cheese. Ride my motorcycle in the rain. Take weekend trips. Go to Vegas and play craps... but stop before I lose. Hang out at Peet's Coffee before work. Hike in the woods. Play with well behaved kids and read stories to them with funny voices. Shop for gifts. Chat with my Mom once a week. Go back to Kansas City for a visit and eat Kansas City BBQ.

Date someone special from United States. Awkward! Here goes,
Good: I'm hardworking, smart, generous, loyal, ambitious, responsible and sincere. I have a great job which I love and have had a chance to see a lot of the world. I'm sort of a homebody but over time have found that home is where you hang your hat. I'd be very comfortable around someone who has quiet wisdom and laughs at irony in life rather than crying when it's unfair. I'm not looking for an Olympian but would like someone who takes care of herself and health conscious. I treat the very young and very old with special care.
Bad: I have grumpy days and forget my New Years resolutions. I speed. I eat too fast sometimes. I might have once told a lie. Oh, and there is a rumor that I snore when I'm very, very tired.
Since online dating is suppose to speed things up, I'll try to help here. Some things I like:
- Sunrise more than sunset
- Deep morals more than deep pockets
- Godzilla more than King Kong
- Giving effort more than giving things
- Porsche more than Ferrari
- Coke more than Pepsi
- Love more than money
- A helping hand more than a hand out
- Dogs more than cats
- Pie more than cake
- Mountains more than Oceans
- Boats more than trains
- Countryside more than cityscape
- Spring more than fall
- Where we are going more than where we have been

Date a soulmate from United States. Okay, so I moved here from Seattle 6 years ago and love the So Cal Weather! I am divorced now for two years and have two great kids that stay with me half time. I am looking for someone to share good times, someone to bond with and share my life with. I am successful in my career as a physician but am a little shy. Meeting new people is tough and so I thought I'd give this a shot. If your interested I'll telll you a lot more - email me.

Meet single man from United States. I'm a 46 y. o. physician with numerous interests and hobbies outside of medicine. I enjoy my job and find it interesting and challenging, but I'm only too eager to get away from it at times to do the things I truly love. I'm an amateur car collector and I'm constantly tinkering on cars and old Spanish motorcycles, I play piano and guitar (a bit), I enjoy hiking, cycling, reading and traveling. I'm not much into sports or TV. I grew up on a farm and I really like the country, I recently bought a place up in the mountains where I've been spending practically every weekend away from the city- so I hope you enjoy the country and horses.
I'm looking for an attractive woman 33 - 46y. o. who is slender, callipygian, intelligent, kind and interesting. I usually don't date women older than myself, or with kids....sorry. Someone who doesn't mind getting their hands dirty, as I always have some sort of project going - house, automotive, garden or otherwise. Also, someone who is open to the idea of not having children... as I don't think that's in the cards for me anymore. I'm passionate about the environment and the future of the planet, and I think we all have to make sacrifices before we reach the point of no return.
PS I definitely look older than my main picture, because I am. I have no desire to document and immortalize my slide into senescence and decrepitude with a newer photo. We can meet someplace dark, if you like. I've also found that beer helps.

Date a man from Pasadena, United States. My goal is to have three houses over the globe, all my design. A house in the city (OMA, Bordeaux House), a house on an island (Casa Malaparte), and a house in the desert (O'Keefe).
.
Each place will serve a part of my life at different moments. The house in the city is for business and living, clients and creating.
The house on the island is for playing, recreation, sun and fun.
The house in the desert is for reflection, writing, painting and poetry.
.
I choose beauty over function.
.
I choose the trail over the road.
.
I choose black coffee over green tea.
.
I choose something old over something new.

I choose not an exact reflection of myself, but someone who knows who they are and can respect and appreciate our differences and similarities and who can share in creating and living our dreams.

Meet men and women from Pasadena, United States. About me – I was born in Los Angeles but raised in northern California. I am the youngest of six kids who were raised by strict yet loving parents. My parents have been married over fifty years and have shown my siblings and me that a lifelong relationship is possible with patience and understanding. Though I am the only one in southern California, we manage to keep a tight bond through visits and lots of phone time.
I moved back to Los Angeles to receive my second college degree and decided to stay shortly after graduating. I really enjoy all that LA has to offer from its weather and outdoor activities to all the entertainment.
Prior to my present employment I was a furniture designer near Palm Springs and now I currently work in an architecture office with a great group of talented people. Needless to say I enjoy the career I have which I’ve been a part of for over thirteen years. At times I design and make furniture pieces for friends, clients and myself. I’ve been fortunate enough to have some of them displayed in museums, art galleries as well as in the Los Angeles Times. I have plenty of other interest, a few of which are listed below. I also enjoy the occasional weekend were I just simply stay in and relax, preferably holding someone else; my pillow is becoming a little flat.
As for my personality, I love to laugh and even more importantly, make other's laugh. I am witty, sarcastic at times and sometimes goofy. I’m an optimistic person who has goals in life which will surely help me to grow and give me something to strive for. I am family oriented, affectionate and tend to put others before myself. I like to cook, take care of the one I’m with and accept her for who she is as well as her family. I am a firm believer that in life the most important things we have are each other.
About you- you are easy going, laid back and know that the world is not going to end if an issue arises. You enjoy a good conversation (hopefully with me). You are willing to try some of my hobbies and interest as I am willing to try some of yours. You are comfortable with receiving affection as well as giving it though I realize this will take time for us to get to this point.
I just need someone to enjoy this ride with me that we call life. If you are easy going, enjoy and appreciate the things you have but need that someone special to add the missing ingredient, take a chance and … throw caution to the wind.
Thank you very much for taking the time to read my profile and good luck.

Date someone special from Pasadena, United States. I'm a writer, a romantic, a computer geek and a digital designer. I'm also a big movie lover. I'm looking for a physically attractive, friendly, compassionate, faithful and honest gal who's into introverts.

Meet people from Pasadena, United States. Westley (Dread Pirate Roberts): "Roberts had grown so rich, he wanted to retire. He took me to his cabin and he told me his secret. 'I am not the Dread Pirate Roberts' he said. 'My name is Ryan; I inherited the ship from the previous Dread Pirate Roberts, just as you will inherit it from me. The man I inherited it from is not the real Dread Pirate Roberts either. His name was Cummerbund. The real Roberts has been retired (Happily married) 15 years and living like a king in Patagonia.' "

I’m an active, young looking, confident guy with a passionate, adorable side. I’m a mature man of high integrity, yet I maintain a grounded, laidback attitude. I can be quite funny and sarcastic, yet romantic and sensual. I have a bit of the traditionalist in me, probably from being raised culturally Italian. I will want you to walk on the inside of the sidewalk, and I'll like to open doors for you. I can often be found planning fun, romantic surprises, yet I enjoy some spontaneity. Learning motivates me, and I thrive on discovering new and amazing experiences. I’m not perfect, but I am perfectly me. I seek someone who can see beneath my surface, to the genuine man who can be found there.

I keep an even keel and maintain a pretty chill demeanor, but am prone to caffeine withdrawal on occasion, which may result in monosyllabic conversation until my cup of coffee is poured. I have various super powers, but will not reveal them until I know you better. Well, one of them is the key to youth, alkalinity.

"So I'm rappelling down Mount Vesuvius when suddenly I slip, and I start to fall. Just falling, ahh ahh, I'll never forget the terror. When suddenly I realize 'Holy crap Hansel, haven't you been smoking Peyote for six straight days, and couldn't some of this maybe be in your head?'" But I wake up and realize I'm actually high on life, I eat clean, and take care of myself.
*
I’m attracted to a woman with a playful, young, adventurous spirit and definitely a warm heart, yet both naughty and nice. I strive to have fun in anything I do, and I'd especially like to see my partner happy and content as we may walk the path of life together. You should enjoy the outdoors, travel, and be open-minded and willing to try something new. I believe in chemistry, and know that with the right inspiration, it will lead to a life of romance and passion. I want to inspire and be inspired. I want to connect and be connected.... forever. Is that really asking too much?
*
You're smart, fun, athletic, outdoorsy, maybe a little sassy. You're willing to go geocaching, see a live band, have a drink, go camping, kayaking, hiking or paragliding (or at least watch with me.) You have a touch of wild... well maybe a lot of wild is ok too. You have a good sense of humor, and you're caring but independent. You enjoy your own time alone and respect my needs for the same. You're sincere. You're into reading books, watching film, listening to music; maybe you make lists of favorite albums. You're open-minded about culture, omnivorism (is that a word? It is now.) religion and politics; able to empathize with those you don't necessarily agree with. Willing to get dressed up or be grubby. Don't need makeup to be beautiful and sexy. Willing to dance and goof off, or sneak into a movie or lay on the beach, yet sometimes dress up and leave town on a whim. And you can just be comfortably you!
*
As I sit here, my warm and cozy fireplace is lit, and I’m waiting for you with a bottle of wine and a smile. I'm sure you must be tired by now of all the 20 something kids or old men that are writing you on these dating sites, asking to be your plaything. My female friends give me the scoop! Don't you think enough is enough already? I'm the real deal; total long-term relationship quality. So if you’re the one, please get me off this wacky site!!

Date a soulmate from Pasadena, United States. i'm completely new to this and not sure of the protocol but here goes, i'm tossing my hat in the ring.
still waters run deep. that's what they say.
the water on top here is brimming with joy, openness, excitement, plans, anticipation and gratitude. plumb the depths and you'll find reflection, intellect, compassion, drive and sensitivity. in other words, the best of both worlds.
i'd like to say i'm a simple man with simple pleasures. and this is true. who can put a price on rays of light streaming across the sky? a tender touch? a note played perfectly? a genuine smile?
and yet, i love the finer things in life. i seek them out: honest and well-prepared food; fine sheets; the trim cut of a tailored suit; lines of classic modernism.
i appreciate, respect and love women, especially those whom take good care of themselves emotionally and physically. i'm not looking for my mother, but i do admire her and consider her one of my best friends. in a woman i enjoy confidence, communication, grace and a serious dose of joie de vive. i think "class" sums it up and by that i don't necessarily mean pedigree. its simple, you love yourself and your partner and your actions speak louder than words.
i believe in treating others the way i wish to be treated. i'm usually slow to judgement and understand there are almost always two sides to every story. i am comfortable taking the lead but have matured with strong women and respect your intellect and independence. i desire a partnership that recognizes we take care of each other.
things that attract me in a woman: a good vocabulary, comfortable in a bikini, jeans and a evening dress, a great smile, grace, humility, a goofy/playful side, problem solving skills, willingness to go there (where ever that may be).
don't know is this too much? have questions? just ask. let's meet. i'm in!
