Date women from United States / California / Pleasanton - page 7

Date a soulmate from California, United States. Hi - thanks for stopping by! I am warm, loyal, honest, fun, intelligent, and have an infectious laugh and smile and a great sense of humor. I see the glass as half full and always try to see the good in life. I enjoy all the usual things (dancing, skiing (water and snow), biking, hiking, gardening, movies, long walks, traveling, curling up with a good book, and have a great back yard which is a terrific setting for outdoor gatherings. I love camping (even if there are no showers!) (I can fish!) or getting dressed up for an evening in the city. I grew up on the East Coast, lived in France and have lived in the Bay Area for 16 years and can't imagine living anywhere else. I work in marketing in the pharmaceutical device industry and love my job, but am by no means a workaholic. ...I have a sweet little dog who loves taking me for walks and 2 new kittens. My ideal partner is a warm, fun, intelligent man, who is honest and communicative. I want my partner to really listen to me, talk openly and honestly with me, share his feelings and fears with me, support me and not be judgmental and I in turn will do the same. I expect such a man would be confident in who he is and have integrity, be ambitious, but by no means a workaholic. Financial security is very important to me and should be to you as well. Obviously chemistry needs to be there. I want to feel safe in your arms and your heart. Being family oriented is important. A romantic man who can light a propane lantern is a plus.

It's difficult to toss out a few details in hopes it attracts an individual who could be best fitted to me since none of us can place our entire selves on a mere page. I keep this in mind when reading profiles and hope you do too. That being stated, here is some depth...
A few things you might like to know about me... I have a cordless drill and I'm not afraid to put it to work. I enjoy target shooting with my handgun. I fought and won being robbed in a parking lot. I can muscle a bbq yet finesse a chocolate mousse. I used to be tomboyish but have come to embrace my inner femme and now really enjoy dressing up, heels and all. I am huge on respect and manners yet love a great dirty joke. I am fond of animal and human behavior. I like books of reference/resource (and the web) to assist my constant curiosities. I have the ability to shock myself and others with my own ability and will at times. I have loved, been loved, and lost, forgiven fully and know this life is fleeting so enjoy making those memories that stand out. No amount of pride is worth anger held. I'm not thin-skinned since I can and do laugh at myself and don't mind if you do too. You'll likely tease me about my hair addiction. Lol. It's all about friends, family and those beloved to me. Friendship is tantamount yet hopefully in tandem to dating. I'm looking for what is undeniable, that link and chemsitry that two take the time to build upon. I have a nice family great group of friends (Wino's)who would happily submerge (ha, ha) my partner into our events. I partake a healthy diet yet don't refrain from what I enjoy. I love to cook and hope to share great times in the kitchen with another who also feels the same. Together there would be no recipe we cannot conquer.
Not fond of moodiness, nor roles (titles) such as dominate or submissive as they pertain to a relationship. I'm used to balance and appreciate those who give more than thought to the premise. Please consider being humble enough to query since this process can be daunting at times. Confusion runs amok in these venues, in my opinion. I can be a little shy at first but you might not be able to tell. I am not one to initiate in this process but am prone to a flirt now and then in an attempt to reach out. I don't have that issue once established, thankfully. I am fond of PDA and quite tactile should we get to that point along the way. For those who care to know, I am not formally educated, yet artistic and considered bright and intelligent by my peers, testing within a healthy, normal range according to Meyers-Briggs.
Thank you for your time and best wishes to you in this journey. Cheers!

Meet a woman from Pleasanton, United States. Please note that my status is "Separated" because the divorce is not final. I have been separated for about a year and a half - so I'm well past the "rebound" stage.
I like men who aren't afraid to share their feelings, who like to have discussions about themselves, their futures and about anything and everything that affects them and the world around them....but also be interested in what interests me. I like a man who can be romantic, who can take the lead but at the same time can connect with my feelings and what is important to me. A man who values knowledge but isn't a braggart about what he knows. I don't like too wild of a man, but I do like someone who enjoys getting out and having fun. I'd like to meet someone who enjoys basketball, shooting pool, traveling, spending quiet nights at home with a movie, dining out at nice restaurants, going to movies and plays.....someone who's not afraid of trying something new. A man who knows the importance of having "me" time that doesn't involve doing something that may jeapordize our relationship. I like having time to myself, but I would never do anything to hurt my man. I like a guy who can be a friend to everyone, but doesn't have too much of a Alpha-male trait. I also like a guy who can hand over the reigns without complaint. Sometimes your girl likes to take control, ya know what I mean? I also like a man who can be kind and generous. Oh -- and someone who actually laughs at my jokes would be nice :) I think I'm pretty funny, but for some reason, the men that I've known don't laugh. (I can always make my girlfriends laugh, so I know I'm pretty funny).
Let's face it guys: I'm 49 years old - I've been married. I've had kids. I'm no stranger to relationships. I've been dealt some not-so-good hands. I have to admit: I'm not very good at judging character. But now that I've been through the wringer a few times, I've gotten to the point where I'm going to be pretty picky. I'd rather be alone than have to go through another bad relationship. So, please don't feel bad if we meet for coffee and I tell you that I'm not interested. It doesn't mean there is anything wrong with you. It only means that you're just not right for me.
I'm not looking for model-good-looks, but I'd like to meet someone who is fairly attractive, takes pretty good care of himself - a non-smoker, -- someone who has a good job and has stability in his life. I'm not looking for someone that I have to support and take care of. The most important thing is someone who is NICE and INTELLIGENT and has a GOOD HEART.
My children are grown, as of this writing, they are 22, 25 and 29. I also have a grandson who is almost 3 and a granddaughter who was just born in February. My oldest son lives in Colorado with his wife and kids, so I don't really get to spend a lot of time with him, which saddens me greatly. My middle son lives in the foothills with his wife, and I get to see him a little, but not as much as I would like! My daughter recently moved back in with me (temporarily!!) - so I'm really enjoying having her around. But they have their own lives, so I must allow them to pursue their dreams and not get in their way. I'd really prefer that if you have children that they be grown up as well - or at least pretty close to being adults. There can be a lot of problems with the "step-mother" dynamic and I'm not really interested in being step-mom to anybody's children. Not that I don't like children - of course I do. But I'm all done with raising children and you should be, too.
It would be really nice to finally find the man of my dreams. A man who can really treat me the way I deserve to be treated. In return, I will treat you like a king. :)

Date someone special from Pleasanton, United States. Fun, friendly, and approachable. Those three words definitely describe who I am. Compassionate and understanding, I am a very sensitive and empathetic individual, Not only will I freely express my emotions and feelings, but I am in tune with those of others. I would pair well with a man who could likewise wear his heart on his sleeve.
I love laughter and have been told I am quite the comedian. Well, I dont know about that, but I think I can hold my own in the comedic arena. You can never have too many grins, smiles, giggles, and laughs in a day. I'm not a loud mouth but I'm no shrinking violet. I guess you could say I'm a good bad girl ;)
I have a quick wit and a curious intelligence, both of which lend themselves well to conversations of depth and meaning, and I hope to find an equally-inquisitive and articulate partner.
Life gets busy and chaotic with the ins and outs of everyday so I would like to meet someone that likes to catch up, unwind, share a story, laugh, hold hands, share a meal, catch a movie, make love, take a hike, or just sit in a cafe for some coffee and conversation. I really like going out for a great dinner and finding some live music to enjoy after.
I appreciate a man born of good manners, integrity, and character. He lives with an open mind, a loving soul, a nurturing presence, and a caring attitude.

. I'm separated and looking for fun and friendship. I'd like to someday have a boyfriend who is happy to have a regular girl who is giving, communicative and loves the human touch. I am intelligent with enthusiasm and spontaneity, passion and a kind heart. I'm feminine, compassionate and supportive. When you talk to me, you will be heard and respected.
I am a hard-working tech manager with a full life. I own two rental properties (three rentals, meriting the additional count for the effort required) in San Leandro and Castro Valley and have recently moved to Pleasanton so that I can be very close to my children's schools. My divorce is moving along. I want to meet a person who will be staying in the bay area and has regular employment.
My ideal date would be intelligent, clean shaven, fun to talk to, and humble. He is a hard worker who can break away for some good romantic fun. He knows the difference between "their," "there", and "they're." If he also has a sense of humor, healthy interests and personal goals, that would be a plus.
I like hiking and running, despite a hip injury I am currently nursing along. I recently tried and enjoyed kayaking. I like to visit outdoor places with an amazing view.
I don't photograph well. As my 14-year-old, otherwise well-spoken daughter would say, in response to which I would likely cringe: "I'm just saying."

. Hi! Thank you for taking a minute to read my profile. I'm not one to talk about myself so here goes...I'm looking for someone to share adventures with; someone who appreciates life, love and relationships. I love exploring new places or just spending quiet time at home. My family and friends mean the world to me. I am a very honest, kind, caring woman who enjoys and appreciates life. My ideal partner is honest and kind like me and knows how to treat a woman like she's important to him. He's romantic and funny, is comfortable talking about his day and is interested in mine. He likes to do volunteer work on occasion and is compassionate toward those less fortunate. If you're this person send me a note to say hello.

. Is it ok if i jump on the bed while you fall asleep? I will drop down and give ya kisses between jumps?!
FIRST KNOW- i am all about the truth. i keep it real & will always make room for you to do the same. i am silly, uninhibited & playful, with tons of "young energy". i am not sure when all the grown ups...grew up, but i must have missed that bus!
i am totally comfy in my skin. i think that is what self-confidence is all about. not being full of yourself...just being really ok with who you are...inside and out...flaws & all.
i am totally affectionate, no matter where we are, i want to touch and be touched. i am a hopeless romantic: notes, cards, surprises...i will do it all for the one i am with..i have to. it is NOT "work" to do those gestures, it would be work not to.
i love simple pleasures. listening to tunes, a popsicle by the pool...these far outweigh the hooplah of material things. it is not to say that i do not like nice things, just as long as they are for true pleasure & comfort...just never to be flaunted for prestige or status.
i am compassionate, loyal, deep & reliable. i live my life with purpose. integrity is everything. for me, intelligence offers the most profound erotica there is. not academic intelligence..just "getting" someone else.
i believe we are on this planet to give back. PAY IT FORWARD. i changed my job from management in a corporate career to work in a field connected to caring and healing ...just trying to connect how i want to live, with how i make my living. finally, the 2 now align.
i love & adore my 2 kids, and they are the best friends i could have ever wished for. My daughter graduated college May of 2011 and my son went to college August of 2011. i never thought i would be doing this empt-nesting thing alone. i guess so many of us these "dating-sites" never thought we would, right? my kids and i are sooooo close... we laugh until we cry..ALL THE TIME!!
(I have a theory that this how one might get the look of "abs" even when they do not work out and are in no way athletic).
*best i say now: i truly do NOT work out, and am NOT athletic. i do NOT have a 6-pack! my pix kind look like it.
i AM lucky for whatever my body-type is though, because any of my slim or sorta-muscular-ish frame HAS TO BE from laughing!
i feel so lucky to live this life; i never stop counting my blessings. i have my share of many hard times, i don't deny that, i just feel lucky that i see life through positivity. there are always 2 ways to see everything. with every tragedy, a blessing can be found.
humor is everything to me. even in the darkest of times...it is the greatest of gifts.
i am very DEEP/INTENSE, but i also STAY SILLY!
i am modern, but love chivalry. i want to find the man that wants to find his princess. it is not so much about chairs & doors, just the man who always WANTS and NEEDS to "get to his girl" when she is sad, in danger & scared... or because she is so adorable, he just can't resist her!
i am strong and "have the back" of anyone i love (you have no idea!), but i want to melt into the strength of the man who will let me be the feminine girl which is actually me at my best.
i am reliable, responsible, and accountable..and still, i am the most spontaneous, silly, goofy, child-like grown up you will meet. milkshakes at 2am? frenchtoast at 3am? play all night and then some? let's just do it!
don't dare me cuz i will! i am a nonconformist, and unconventional in almost every way. i am not trying to make trouble. i just strive for quality of life; i don't let society's rules BLOCK the BLISS if they make no sense. can you deal with a girl like this? :)
i really want to share all of me with the partner i hope to find! no walls, no games, no b.s...just pure, simple, and deep intimate love. i want to communicate everything, go to places inside that just us 2 know..
& find so much passion...that we want to rip eachother's clothes off..every
