Date men and women from United States / California / San Francisco, 47 year old - page 4

Date a woman from San Francisco, United States. Yes, the glass is half empty. I think it means we drank half already, which means there's still half remaining. And the glass is ready to get filled up to overflowing again. Yes? No?
Who am I: My closest friends would describe me as fun to be around and a (gentle) truth-teller. They would say I have a great sense of humor and a compassionate willingness to see all sides. They think I'm genuine and smart and pretty and determined. It is easy for me to see the positive in things and people but I am not naive or false about it. I work towards sustaining that balance of the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual and love to see how long it lasts (the moments are getting more frequent and closer together). I smile and laugh a lot - it's so much easier than what it takes to be in a bad mood. My friends would agree I am grateful and thus happy with this really good life I have.
Who are you: I really look forward to meeting you. You come from an equally genuine place and like who you are. In every area of your world, you try to be as honest and accountable with yourself as you can be. You have done some soul searching and know what it means to show up. You're past the angst of it though - like me, you'd rather laugh at the how-did-I-not-see that or give yourself a thumbs-up and keep going. You are available and interested, open and ready to face the unknowns.
More about me:
- As magical as a sunrise can be, I am a night owl.
- I am able to do so myself, of course, but I would still be delighted if you open the door for me.
- I always pay for the popcorn at movies (will tell you why when we talk).
- I love sports and the arts in equal measure (there are no bad seats at ATT Park and no bad exhibits at SFMOMA...okay, maybe a couple at each).
- I always use my turn signal and rarely drive the speed limit.
- Coffee is what gets me going in the morning (I make a wicked latte).
- Five is my favorite number.
- Rome is a place I will return repeatedly.
More about you:
- You live in the Bay Area.
- You love your friends and family.
- You like to be on time.
- You have a valid passport.
- You know some of what makes you tick and want to find out the rest.
- You know there are always veggies to eat but you make room for dessert too.
And yes, you make me laugh. I like who I am around you and vice versa. See? This is going to be fun.

Meet someone special from San Francisco, United States. Love to laugh, connect with others, and enjoy all that life has to offer! Curious, adventurous, inclined to look for the best in people and in the world. Passionate about exploring new places and trying new creative endeavors. Feminine yet strong, easy to know yet full of mystery and surprise. Dedicated to staying fit and active– physically, mentally, and emotionally.
I am interested in someone who is comfortable within himself and has a passion for life, confident, but does not take himself too seriously, someone who is progressive, confident, and enjoys learning. Enjoys travel and life's adventures.

Date men and women from San Francisco, United States. I think the most important thing in a man is a sense of humor. It can get you through almost anything! Also, intelligence on a broad range of topics is a big plus for me; well-rounded. Confidence is a must as well-someone who knows what they want, and has the confidence and healthy self-esteem to obtain it. I'd like to start out as friends first and get to know each other, and see where that takes us.
I grew up in Oklahoma, and my Mid/Southwest roots and values are intact. I like a man who is a gentleman and knows how to treat a lady. IРІР‚в„ўm not sure how I came to be so liberal, but that is why I love it here in San Francisco! I love the tolerance for different lifestyles and ways of thinking. I'm from a big Catholic family, and we had a lot of fun growing up! I'm the youngest of 7 kids (no, I wasn't spoiled)! It seems like most people think I look much younger than my age; I would attribute that to good genes from my mother!
I am a bit of a tomboy, and a blue jeans type lady, and I am comfortable hanging out with the guys, watching football, camping and fishing. I have more guy friends than girlfriends. But I also enjoy getting dressed up in a little black dress and heels for an intimate dinner out, or a night on the town. I make an effort to be friends with my ex-boyfriends (rationale: if you care enough about them to date them, then why not be friends after it ends?) and still work on business projects with my ex-husband.
I work in the medical device industry. Having worked in the past in a hospital setting (and I still go to hospitals for clinical trials), I know first hand how life is precious, and how quickly it could be taken away from you. You only live once so don't settle, and have fun!
I am a big animal lover, so I can envision myself with someone that loves animals as much as I. When I cry, it is usually over some animalРІР‚в„ўs misfortune. IРІР‚в„ўm into the environment, so I guess that makes me a tree-hugger (but IРІР‚в„ўm not over the top).
I love children, and I have a beautiful step daughter from my previous marriage. I still stay in touch with her. Wow-the teenage years!
I would love to meet a man who is adventurous, and loves to travel like myself-anywhere! I love Europe and have traveled fairly extensively around the world, going rock climbing in the Middle East, safari in Africa, and Asia, including India. I also work in India on occasion, as my company has an office in Bangalore. I would also love to volunteer in a foreign country, using my medical background to help others.
I like to stay active doing yoga, running, gardening with my exotic orchids, hiking, sailing, photography, and just walking around San Francisco discovering new areas. I love the history of this city.
I like trying new things, and went sky diving a few years ago-I loved it! But I also enjoy being a couch potato on occasion, especially when there is a good college football game on. I also do volunteer work as much as I can. I believe you must give back to the community in which you live. There are so many people in need, especially in this economy. Isn't that what life is all about?
I think there are so many quality people in the Bay area, but it seems we all work long hours, therefore it's difficult to meet people-no time!
Oh yeah, I forgot to mention-I'm a good cook! My whole family cooks. But my specialty is Southern food, which is not too healthy; but you have to have some fun in life, right? And you better like spicy, because I like it hot baby! : )
So, anyone up for seeing Book of Mormon in November?!

Meet a soulmate from San Francisco, United States. Here is a sampling of a few of the things I like to do; long walks on the beach (is that a cliche, or what) hikes in the woods, music of all kinds (ok, almost all kinds) concerts, wine tasting in Napa, hottubs under the stars, weekend jaunts, curling up on the couch with a good book, cuddling in front of the fireplace on a cold winter night, scratching the dog/cat behind their ears and, I'm not ashamed to admit, I like to watch T.V.!I would like to meet someone who is willing to be a romantic partner, soulmate, coconspirator, best friend and will walk the dog in the rain. A partner I can respect, trust, love and laugh with. Someone who is not afriad of committment nor does he have a fear of an independant, intelligent, extremely witty, woman. Someone who knows relationships take work! I understand this and am willing to go the extra mile for the man who is worth it. I expect nothing less from myself. A sharp wit, open mind and animal lover are a definate plus!

Date people from San Francisco, United States. Be yourself! and i will be myself.
Appreciate Humor as the single most valuable human quality.
You display a willingness to live life ...admit to your humanity.
When it comes to growing up -- less is more.
Spontaneous, open-minded, non-judgmental, genuinely kind,
...borrowing from Jane and Michael Banks:
If you want this choice position,
have a cheery disposition
Rosy cheeks, no warts --
Play games, all sorts.
You must be kind, you must be witty,
be a man who loves the city.
hmm...spoiling surprises is always a pity,
so let's save for now the nitty-gritty ;)
Oh, one last thing - please take the time
to share your photos,
as I have shared mine

Date someone special from California, United States. I am a city mouse country mouse - I love being outdoors whether I am hiking in the Marin Headlands or sitting in a cafe in Northbeach. I embrace life!
I like to stay healthy by running, cycling and swimming. I also ski in the winter and do a little hiking locally.
Life is good. Living in the bay area gives me many outlets to have a great time. I enjoy listening to live music especially Blue Grass. I prefer small venues over larger venues. I also enjoy getting out of the city on weekend excursions to the coast or mountains.
I would like to meet someone who also enjoys the outdoors as well as having a "nothing" day and is happy just hanging out. I am not the person wearing the lamp-shade but rather the one having a deep conversation with one person the whole night.
Email me and say hello -
Julie

Meet men and women from California, United States. I am positive and curious with an openness and appetite for life. I can't wait to wake up each morning and decide what I can create on this special day. I love to learn. I have a passion for everything beautiful and try to bring beauty into my physical, emotional and spiritual worlds. Music is an integral part of that world. I love to sing and get chills when the lights go down in the theater. I am a designer of living spaces and a dancer of Argentine Tango. I love to laugh and need to flow. I think showing respect towards others is not only essential but sexy. I love how rain feels on my tongue. While I am pretty fearless, clowns creep-me-out. I only eat chunky peanut butter and I will never drink from a can. I hate beer. I love elephant trunks. While sophisticated, I also like to play in the mud. I adore all things romantic: candlelight, firelight, moonlight, starlight ...no light...silence. I have been blessed with genuine friends, an entrepreneurial spirit and have created a lifestyle that brings me great joy. A great man in my life would enhance my already magical existence. I want to be with a man who is culturally current, loves film, music, and art, thinks that being well groomed and well dressed with his own swagger is essential, demonstrates and expresses his affection and emotions AND... likes to shop. He knows how to grow together but also how to grow as an individual. He is a co-creator who "gets the magic". A man who puts me above himself, because he knows I am doing the same for him... A person who views each day as an OPPORTUNITY for creativity and joy, who sees the ordinary miracles occurring all around us, is bright, energetic, loves to laugh and is generous (in every way), honest and trustworthy. You may think that I am reaching for the moon. Well, I am. Because that is the next stop on my journey. Although I live in San Francisco, I don't let the miles between myself and possibility dictate my life. Who knows what miracle lies just around the corner or across the world.
Disclosure: I am new to the site so please forgive me but I don't understand the "wink" or just "hi". Please do not send either to me.

Date a woman from United States. I am hoping to find a great friend to go on outdoor adventures with. I love mountain climbing and back country skiing. I hope to find someone who is honest and self confident, who enjoys the outdoors. I love to cook and also enjoy going out to gourmet restaurants.

Meet someone special from United States. I'm not as comfortable in a ball gown as I am in sweats and a t-shirt, unless by "ball gown" you mean "giant fleece blanket with sleeves." Otherwise I hate this stupid fancy party. But I do think I'm a unique amalgam of romantic and cynical, light-hearted and deep-thinking, kind and snarky, boisterous and mellow, well-bred and low-brow, lebensfreude and Weltschmerz. I'm convinced humankind will turn out to be a failed evolutionary experiment, but I still get excited when they have good magazines at the doctor's office. I'll kick your as* at Foodie Fight while eating cold Spaghettios out of the can.
I look at life as an adventure, and I think I'm pretty good at extracting a fun time out of even the most mundane or onerous experiences. Friends have described me as kind, easygoing, a good question asker, entertaining when grumpy, weird in a good way, and, once, the sole exception to Plato's theory of forms. I would add brainy, sentimental, irreverent, open, introspective, disillusioned, gracious, analytical, melancholy, an underachieving former overachiever, and a good sport.
I have an apartment in San Francisco and a house in Vermont and have been freelancing for the past several years; currently I'm on the east coast after finishing up a 2-year contract at UCSF, and I'm planning to remain here for the summer while I figure out what to do next. I'm also VP of a small, folksy non-profit.
I feel chemistry (or not) strongly and usually know pretty quickly whether I'm going to click with someone. I don't consciously seek out a particular "type," but two things my past boyfriends have had in common are smarts and German-American ancestry… hmm.
I think every first encounter should open with an unveiling of each party's most crippling neuroses and unwind from there. (Not to worry; mine are charming for the most part.) I'm pretty much unoffendable, but I crumple when people are mean. And I detest snobbery of any kind... unless, of course, it's exceptionally artfully executed.
Music has been a big part of my life and I always seem to be involved in one project or another -- most recently I co-produced a choral CD of Greek Orthodox hymns, but my tastes are all over the map.
I'd like to be more physically active than I currently am. Maybe tomorrow.
My ideal partner would be someone who is fun and youthful but also grounded and together; someone who likes private jokes and silly voices and creative, thoughtful presents; who can freely admit his insecurities; is friendly and affectionate; isn't pretentious, sulky or a know-it-all; looks at the world in a different way than other people seem to; and would respond with enthusiasm if I suggested we have a discussion about the meaning of happiness using only one-syllable words.
I've been single for a while but have had great relationships in the past and would like to have a partner again. Definitely open to new friendships too. Look forward to hearing from you!
