Date women from United States / California / Pasadena, 37 year old

Date a soulmate from California, United States. People who know me say I am fun, honest, spontaneous, and caring. I enjoy spending time with friends, family, and sometimes I need alone, relaxing, "me" time. I have lived in L.A. most of my life, but I am pretty well traveled. I am looking to meet someone who is happy where he is in his life, down to earth, good hearted, and honest.

Meet a woman from California, United States. ME:
-Energetic, spunky, friendly, and always up for an adventure.
-Helping others gives me warm fuzzies and I'm working on make it pay the bills, too.
-Dry sense of humor, fairly random, and a word nerd… plus I love to text, so get ready!
-Hate cooking, but love to eat. IРІР‚в„ўm up for any new foods/restaurants, and odds are good IРІР‚в„ўll think it's delicious. A home-cooked meal is just as great as long as it's not cooked by me.
-Excellent card player, and enjoy learning new games or sports.
-Being outdoors energizes me. I love sunshine and thunderstorms. All good things: Hiking up a mountain or walking the dog, laying around at the beach or diving through the waves, cruising on bikes or racing in a triathlon, dining out on the rooftop patio or having a picnic in the park. I'm not a fan of snow, though, so if you're into that you can find me at the spa or by the fireside with a good book.
-Direct and honest. No topic is off limits.
-Live for vacations! Anything works -- road trips, acting like a tourist in our own backyard, or visiting foreign countries. I have a busy schedule, so occasionally sleeping in and doing nothing are just right.
-Do not enjoy dressing up, but when I do, I do it well. Heels are a necessary evil.
-I've been told I have a great butt.
-Worst qualities: oversharing, grumpy when hungry, and horrible at keeping secrets. But, apparently, acceptance of my flaws is not one of my issues.
YOU:
-(Like me) Are just as comfortable taking the lead as following, sticking to the plan or throwing it out the window.
-Smell great! Soap, laundry detergent, deodorant, aftershave, cologne – bring it!
-Good listener and a good storyteller, and know when to be which.
-Enjoy cooking or eating out. Otherwise this thing isnРІР‚в„ўt going to last long. If you're a good bartender or know how to pair wines, weРІР‚в„ўre in business.
-Confident yet humble. You can call me out, as long as you donРІР‚в„ўt mind getting called out, too. Willingness to admit and learn from your mistakes is attractive.
-Find women complicated, but enjoy the challenge. (I try not to be a challenge, but we're just wired differently, so stuff happens. It's how we deal with it that matters)
-Responsible and carefree.
-Do not have body hair that resembles a fur rug. Anything short of that is fine.
-Know your mind, but have an open mind.
-Have a solid support system in place with no drama (your friends and family adore and respect you)
-Anywhere from athletic to beefy/stocky/carrying around a few extra pounds, as long as you can keep up.
-Love kids: you feel comfortable with loud, silly shenanigans, are generous with hugs and piggyback rides, and know a few knock knock jokes. My kids are amazing, hilarious, vivacious, and full of personality. They already have a great dad, so IРІР‚в„ўm not looking for a replacement. Just someone who wants to hang out with them and have fun.
-Generous, kind, thoughtful, and generally happy to be alive.
-Do not complete me (or do anything excessively corny or cheesy, unless its for the purpose of being corny or cheesy).
US: Why not? Life is full of surprises. Let's get started.

Date someone special from California, United States. Jumping right in... I’m a low-maintenance, in-the-moment, optimistic person with a definite goofy/sarcastic streak… the kind of person who will rarely pass up the opportunity to make a snow-angel or do a back dive into the water. I think the key to being happy is trying to find the bright side of any situation - after all, you can't control what happens in life, but you can choose how to respond to it.
For some random details (in no particular order): I'm an intelligent person, but I have my moments of inanity which keep me grounded and keep me laughing at myself (and yes - it's ok for you to laugh too). I am proud of what I have accomplished in my career but learned the hard way how important keeping a good work/life balance is. I am not socially inept and actually enjoy conversations with strangers, so you don't have to worry about me at a party. However, I also do not need to be the center of attention and I am perfectly content having a drink and a quiet moment on my own. I'm just as comfortable dressing up or down, going out on the town or relaxing in the mountains by a campfire. I am not afraid to try something new or to eat a burger in front of you. Swimming always came naturally to me so I love anything to do with the water (still need to get certified in scuba!). Conversely, running has never come naturally, but that doesn't stop me from trying! I get a kick out of the occasional rainstorm in LA and like to visit snow, but canРІР‚в„ўt imagine living in a place that isnРІР‚в„ўt habitually sunny (I think I may be solar powered). Music has always been a part of my life (including a brief stint as a music major in college) and I enjoy most genres, especially in outdoor venues. My creative side is now fascinated with photography and I love focusing in on the details of nature. I have a pretty constant desire to travel, which I try to keep semi-satisfied by taking weekend trips throughout the year. Want to decide at the spur of the moment to jump in the car and get out of town for the weekend...? Then I'm your girl (we can figure out a place to stay on the way - that's what iPhone's are for!) But I also like having a big trip in the planning to look forward to. For 2012 I went to Maui with family and in September I'll be off for a trip to Turkey with a group of friends. And I'm always open to suggestions! :) I love my life and those in it - I feel incredibly lucky to view my friends as family and my family as friends.
My description of you... I know we all say we are looking for someone with a sense of humor but nothing is more attractive than cracking each other up. And not just the chuckle-chuckle, hee-hee kind of funny, but that eyes-watering, side-aching, can’t-breathe, kind of hilarity. This also includes being able to laugh at yourself – a prerequisite for hanging with my friends and family (fair warning). You are the first person I think of when I want to share either the good or the bad moments. Your smile and your laugh are contagious to me. I feel as comfortable in your presence as I do my own and we can talk endlessly about anything yet be perfectly at ease saying nothing. Our decision to be together will be because we want to, not because we need to - and you appreciate how much more meaningful that is. I wish I could properly articulate what that chemistry will feel like when it’s the right person. I just have to trust that we'll know it when we see it.

Meet a soulmate from United States. First: If you don't have pics posted, please don't expect a response. Let's be serious...this online thing is strange enough without having to chat with someone when you have no idea what they look like. Second, yes I look like my pics, no they weren't taken 10 years ago, and sorry that I don't have any pics of me puckering my lips. I hear that's a popular shot, lol!!! Ok, on to the rest...I like to enjoy the simple things in life and appreciate what I have, but believe that there is always room for goals, improvement and learning. Family-oriented and close to my parents, who have been married for almost 50 years; their relationship inspires me. Enjoy travel, social settings, professional networking, but also quiet evenings at home on my couch with a good movie. Like to watch sports (basketball - Lakers, baseball - Dodgers, football - Chargers), cooking, red wine, tequila, outdoors/hiking, staying active, eating healthy, laughing...ALOT (somewhat sarcastic sense of humor, so please don't be super-sensitive...it's all in good fun...and yes I can laugh at myself).
What I'm looking for: Would be nice to find someone with similar interests or wants to share/learn new ones, ambition, MUST have a sense of humor or all my jokes go to waste, fun, honest, can respect the opinions/beliefs of others even though they may differ from your own, emotionally stable, financially responsible (but enjoys the occasional splurges...life is too short!), gets along with people from all walks of life, supportive, makes their partner feel special in subtle ways, clean (or you have a cleaning lady that comes regularly, lol), dependable, spiritual, affectionate...a best friend.

Date a woman from United States. My friends tell me that I am sensitive, caring, and loving. I am curious and adventurous; I enjoy visiting new places and trying new things. I love nature and animals and, even though I donРІР‚в„ўt have any pets of my own, I would welcome anyone who does. I am easygoing, good-humored and tolerant. I am self motivated, ambitious and independent. I donРІР‚в„ўt need someone's constant attention in order to be happy. I enjoy company yet I need some time for myself. I am not looking for a master, but rather for a lifelong companion who not only has a compatible personality but also has something different to offer.
