Date someone special from San Francisco, United States. Its nice to be with someone with a passion for life and what they're doing, but a the same time don't take themselves too seriously... someone who realizes they are bigger than the sum of their parts. Someone who reinforces the positives without being obsessive/compulsive about it. Someone with a strong work ethic and drive to succeed at what they do but don't define themselves by what they do for a living. Someone who enjoys the good life but doesn't need money to be happy. Someone who makes exercise and healthy eating a part of their daily life, but still likes to go to dance and party from time to time.
A free spirit who loves to travel and try new things, but can bear down and focus for extended periods once they commit to something. Someone not so concerned with judging others as they are with being the biggest/best person they can be. Someone who enjoys the endless possibilities of life in the City, but appreciates peaceful, serene natural surroundings....
Meet a soulmate from San Francisco, United States. I'm looking for a great partner who likes to go out, explore, and have fun, from lazy-day hanging out to more intense adventures. I live and work in S.F. but am from the Midwest and East Coast. I value someone who is honest, loyal, and caring.
Date people from San Francisco, United States. YOU love...
Simple things. Like animals. Trees. Camping. Healthy food. Children. Old people. Hot, warm and cold weather. A wide range of music. The sun, moon and stars. Squirrel Appreciation Day. Comedy shows. Driving with the windows/top down. NPR. Your family, and the healthy boundaries in your relationships with them. Growth. And most importantly: intimacy, your life and peace of mind.
YOU are...
Sweet. Funny. Nurturing. Strong. Empathic. Smart. Outdoorsy. In control of all destructive emotions (anger). A girlie-girl, with a sprinkle of tom-boy and some (but not too much) princess. Healthy. Active. Athletic. Modest. Passionate. Sensitive. Soulful. Independent. Capable of abundantly giving and receiving intimacy through all channels (emotional, spiritual, intellectual, physical, sexual and social). A balanced mix of patience-impatience and humility-confidence. In search of a husband and kid(s). Addiction-free. A very light drinker, if at all. A great listener and talker. A person who deeply understands men, ideally has an ability to train a dog, has some musical skills, and (very ideally) has family in the northeastern US. (Long shot on that last one, I know, but it would make the holidays much easier).
ME...
I grew up in a quiet woodsy town in New England with loving parents and an awesome younger sister, and have been in California since 2004. I have the nurturing intellectualism and sensitivity of my mother, and the industrious pragmatism and existentialistic passion of my father. I love meeting and deeply learning about people, and recharge with quiet introspective contemplation. I can be lovingly thoughtful and provocatively tactless, excitingly intense and boringly repetitious, supportively cooperative and fiercely competitive, deeply intellectual and foolishly goofy. I'm an uncle, son, friend, doggy-daddy, teacher, manager, employee and neighbor. I'm fascinated by the emotions of voiceless beings - dogs, children, the homeless, fish and insects - and I believe "listening is understanding."
In order of frequency, I enjoy learning/reading, spending time with my dog, biking (road and mountain), hiking/backpacking, photography, meditating, rollerblading, lifting weights, sailing, cooking, helping old folks to learn computing, playing guitar, skiing/snowboarding, helping a Nicaraguan educational non-profit, board games, windsurfing, flying airplanes (I have my FAA license, but fly rarely lately) and working on cars. I don't follow sports but play ice hockey weekly. I'm a very flexible vegetarian aspiring loosely toward veganism. My Myers-Briggs type is INFP, my Enneagram type is 6 and my blood type is O.
WE...
I'm looking for a stable long-term relationship where we can both grow individually, connect deeply/vulnerably and have a kick-ass good time together :)
"A happy marriage is a long conversation which always seems too short." (A Maurois)
Lastly, I believe the most important things are the hardest to say, because words diminish them.
Meet a man from San Francisco, United States. My life has been a mixture of great adventures and a few lesson learning misadventures. I grew up in the Bay Area, went east to Harvard for college, briefly entered law school (mistake #1 lol) before medical school at Johns Hopkins. Now established with a good career (and surprisingly a lot of free time), I am looking for someone intelligent, passionate about their career and family, and ready for a fulfilling commitment. I am very open minded and would like to explore the world with someone, sharing common interests but also finding new things to love together. Someone with character but a quirky personality can be fun too!
Date single man from San Francisco, United States. I like to look for kindness in everyone I meet. Humor is the most important thing in life. The ideal match would be kind, have a great sense of humor, passionate, giving, and enjoys being treated like a lady.
With that said, I am much better in person than on paper.
Meet men and women from San Francisco, United States. Let's see...a little bit about me...
I like to be around people who have a passion for life. Doesn't matter what it is...just something that drives them
I believe that really experiencing life means being willing to take risks.
I would rather be diving in 30 degree water than sitting in a bar.
I like meeting new people and exploring new things and I'm up to try anything twice.
My friends would describe me as ADHD because I do so many different things. I dance salsa, am re-learning to play the guitar, train in martial arts... make my own leather pants... don't judge!
Anything else you wanna know the line is now open for listener requests...and no I don't have any barry manilow!
Date someone special from United States. Considerable amount of time in my life has been spent - chasing horses, flying kites, (think kite runner) being a lobster fisherman (Deadliest Catch lite), Chasing and fixing engineering issues in car factories, but mostly figuring out the credit and energy markets.
I like outdoorsy, sporty activities. Working with my hands, making and fixing stuff a love, I'm rediscovering.
I've love to discover food and places. Have been to over 30 countries. I love going to Brazil and Thailand. Lately I have traveled less but still have desire to drive through Africa and South America and lots of sailing.
I don't have a rigid view of who I would like to meet. It would be nice to someone who is kind, adventurous, enjoys physical activity, insightful, intelligent and empathetic.
Meet a soulmate from United States. I like being outside. I like being outside a lot, especially in the snow. I grew up in Wisconsin and my time in the Midwest has left me with a keen sense of loyalty, respect for a strong work ethic and a love of milk products, especially cheese and ice cream.
Although I live in the city, at least one weekend day is spent hiking/biking the trails and back roads of Marin/Sonoma. Escaping from the frantic energy of the city is a recurring theme for me.
My most recent travels have been for work but I can usually squeeze in a few extra days for myself (such as skiing the Alps during a trip to Munich and stopping over in Malaysia while enroute to Tokyo).
I'm close to my family and at least once every few months I swing by Portland, Oregon to visit my brothers and nephew.
Introspection and long-term thinking are very important to me and I try to lead a relatively considered, conscious and conscientious lifestyle when possible. Along the same lines I value quality over quantity and will go for the small-batch, artisan, handmade, vintage and/or locally produced whenever it's available and I'm able manage it. My experience as a first generation immigrant watching my parents strive (it never seemed like a struggle to them) in a foreign country has definitely shaped my values and opinions regarding work and the abundance of opportunity here.
I'd like to meet someone who enjoys being outside, hopefully likes to play in the snow, is positive, caring and eager to learn new things and go new places. I'm the sort of person who enjoys working hard to achieve my goals (career or otherwise) and have as much fun hiking/biking/skinning up the mountain as I do ripping down it. I'm quite happy with where I am in my life and am looking for someone to share the adventure with!.
Date people from United States. Que tal, ladies?
When I grow up I want to be... oh, Mission already Accomplished! I have achieved a lot of successes in life. Currently I wear many hats, but one of my favorites is that of a business owner. I work in an exciting field (helping private companies and individuals protect their safety and privacy) where each day is different from the next. When not at work, I'm usually at the gym working out regularly, including Martial Arts, Kick Boxing and lifting weights.
About Me:
I have a big heart and I'm looking to give it to the right person. Born and raised by my Nicaraguan abuela and mami, I'm the type of guy that treats a lady like a lady. The kind of guy that will open your door for you, pay attention to details, and make things uniquely special for you.
I am a Native of San Francisco, born and raised in the Mission District. Traditional family values are very important to me, and I'm looking for a woman who holds similar values. In my free time, I like dancing (cumbia, salsa, merengue, bachata, and house), going to lounges, movies, the beach, exploring new restaurants (any ethnic food, including Mexican, Nicaraguan, Thai, Vietnamese, Korean, etc.) and experiencing new adventures (day trips, boat rides, weekend getaways, you name it!). I am a fun loving, light hearted, spontaneous individual with a zest for life and many diverse interests. Although I work hard, I also know how to play hard too.
About You:
You are very laid back, with positive, outgoing energy and a love for life. I am seeking a family oriented woman, with good values, an open mind, and a great sense of humor. Someone who can be happy doing anything from partying the night away to chilling on the couch with popcorn and a good movie. You are very spontaneous, warm, upbeat, and don't have too much baggage. I want to try new things together, visit new places and get to know the real you. Are you game?

Date single man from United States. Hi everyone!
My match is a woman who is fun and laughs a lot. She is smart and motivated to succeed in whatever career she has chosen. She has a sense of fashion and cares about her appearance - I'm attracted to women who feminine or "girly" but who are also somewhat athletic or "sporty" without being health nuts. My ideal girlfriend also has a sense of adventure and is always eager for whats around the corner.
In my freetime, I run a few times a week through the Marina Green/Crissy Field down to the G.G. bridge and back as I live only 1 block from it in the Marina. I love skiing though I'm still an imtermediate b/c I've only been at it for about 5 years. I follow my alma mater's sports teams (Ohio State football and UNC basketball) but I really don't watch any pro sports. I recently took up golf and have been hitting the links pretty regularly...but my skills still fall squarely in the "amateur" category! I'm a pretty good cook (I watch the Food Network more than most straight men) and I like to entertain. If you're nice to me, I might invite you to indulge in my Chicken Cacciatori or maybe my decadent mushroom risotto which I make with homemade chicken stock!
I'd prefer to find someone between 27 and 40 who lives within San Francisco proper. My match is a woman who is always eager for the next adventure. She's got a positive attitude and brings out the best in other people. She's fun and laughs a lot. She's athletic or "sporty" but not a health nut. She likes to go out and has a sense of fashion.
Hope to hear from someone cool, cute and captivating!
Meet men and women from United States. I'm an outsider turned California native and after more than 10 years in the Bay Area, it's hard to imagine living anywhere else. I've been very fortunate in a career that's given me the freedom to pursue my dreams after building and launching one of the most popular internet sites in the US. I still thrive in the challenge that comes with the path of an entrepreneur. I'm personable, worldly, well-read, and creative. I have both brainy and playful sides, and know how to place a well-timed joke without sounding too sarcastic or inconsiderate. My background includes two years in forensics, travel across much of Russia and Ukraine, and a strong nonprofit streak. I played sports in college but need to find my golf swing again.
I'm looking for someone with good values and sense of humor who loves exploring the Bay Area. It's hard to imagine a better way to spend the weekend than exploring Lake Tahoe, hiking along the coast in Monterrey, or trying out a new restaurant in the city.
