Date men and women from United States / California / Santa Monica, 36 year old

Date single man from California, United States. ME: Often described as a not so easily rattled British gentleman (with an RP British accent) rarely at a loss for words but I always listen first. Always smiling, affectionate, zest for life, God-loving, enjoying every moment. For brevity, I accomplished a law degree in England, black belt in Thai-boxing and now a partner in an LA-based media company. I do not waste time on evasiveness or nebulous communication (i.e. tedious mind games) and I love clarity and forthrightness. Very physically active, taking advantage of all gorgeous LA has to offer and if I meet along the way a diamond in the rough, to connect and learn about each other first, with intention to build a future and family together, then that would be great.
YOU: Refreshingly real, cultured and smiles a lot! :) You worked hard on developing yourself spiritually, intellectually, emotionally and physically. Ideally with a high E.Q (emotional quotient). Please be somewhat rational, reliable and emotionally stable. Am done with the party scene - really would love to meet a woman to build a future and family together, who is not yet another BS artist and was raised in a calm family home filled with affection, faith, loyalty and integrity. You will find all these qualities in me. Guaranteed.

- "Attention-starved psychos, hyena-smiling gold-diggers, obnoxious bit*hes and two-faced hoes (all a dime a dozen in beautiful LA) will not miraculously drop a habit of a lifetime and transform into angels overnight for you. So when detected... you know what you need to do..."
- "Believe, and hold that image daily. It has no choice but to manifest"
- "To expect human beings (these complex creatures of emotions and mind) to be always logical, is absurdly illogical"

Looking for someone who reminds me of the song "Scarlet Begonias" or "Ruben and Cherise".
Seriously though, if you've even heard of either song then we're probably off to a pretty good start. I'm a visual effects artist and hopeful romantic living on the border of Santa Monica and Venice, originally from Long Island, NY. I'm filled with animation, fourTwenty friendly, love smooth blanco tequilas and waking up in Europe. Currently searching for someone special, someone fun, and someone just plain awesome. Aren't we all?

Date a man from California, United States. I'm considering joining Match.com. However, when I scan the profiles, almost all of the ladies are looking for someone who is taller than me or not Asian. These are circumstances of my life that I was born into, that are completely out of my control. Yet I am already discriminated against for those reasons. Sigh.

Meet men and women from California, United States. I don't go psycho like lots of guys out there drowning and suffocating you with insecure sorry a** nonsense. No stress, no anxiety, no judgment, just a relaxing face to face old school style. No so hard is it ?I do like taking the lead and taking action approach to things.
I like women that are adaptable to different environments (Lakers game, UFC fights (not for everyone), F1 racing, MotoGP, desert dune buggy riding, beach dune buggy riding, hiking, Cajun BBQ cookouts, dining/drinks at black tie events or just good Peruvian food at a Cantina somewhere). I am a totally solid mentally and I am not one of these closet psychos that come out after a while to ruin a good thing. I have all my head screws on tight.
I like to be amused and like smiling and laughing at things.
I have a very very very secure sense of identity. I have tons of confidence. I have nothing to prove to anyone except me. I am very secure professionally and love what I do. I would not trade what i do with anyone and have a very very successful career that has gone on for a long time and will go on for a long long time. I love what I do and not too many can do what I do which adds to the uniqueness. I hold family values sacred and value nothing higher than protecting loved ones to ensure a secure surrounding.
I live to have fun and not nickel and dime through life only to regret the chances I had when I had them in front of me. I do what I put my mind to do. I like to share new experiences with a good woman who has her head on straight and loves to have a good time and likes to play and side step the rules on occasion.
I like surfing, soccer on the beach (especially in Brazil), snowboarding, racing cars, racing motorcycles, reading, playing the trumpet, firing pistols at the firing range, host cigar and cognac parties, or getting away to my other home in Miami Beach and decompressing after long hard work weeks.
I am an exceptional athlete .. More in person. I was drafted professionally in two sports and now as part of my job I do something I like even better.
I like to travel a lot to Europe (Spain) and to South America (Peru and Brazil). I lived in Brazil and Spain. I speak Spanish and Portuguese fluently.
The rest in person. I prefer you email and skip the winks ... Winking is weak and doesn't say anything. Say what your thinking and you never know.

Date people from California, United States. Looking to spend time with a woman who can communicate their own unique point of view, someone with a positive energy, adept at enjoying the finer things in life, as well as roughing it every once in awhile. Someone who is athletic and adventurous. Someone who uses their leisure time to expand their mind instead of just pass the time. Someone who cherishes good music, good books, good films, good company and good conversation. In short, someone who is both strong-willed and passionate.

Meet a soulmate from California, United States. ...i'm interested in your answer to my headline, feel free to email me. or wink. whatever you feel...
About me: I'm athletic, outgoing and like to travel, play tennis, golf, ski and drink cocktails in the Greek Islands. Do you like music? I'll play you a song (if you can guess what instrument I play).
I have a creative side but I also went to business school...in other words, I'm focused on my career AND having fun.

Date single man from United States. I grew up in a midwest city but after college I decided it was time to branch out. Since then, I’ve lived in a few cities and have had some great experiences and influences along the way. I’d like to meet someone that is down-to-earth, genuine, curious and independent. I get along best with people that are intelligent, quick witted and have a great sense of humor. I am both creative and analytical. I enjoy photography, live music (go to shows frequently), hiking, riding my bike to the beach, following my hometown teams, playing tennis/softball/soccer and exploring LA and CA. I’ve lived here for 4 years now and look forward to many more.

Meet someone special from United States. I'm an easy-going, fun loving guy that's family oriented, driven, ambitious and focused on what matters in life. I grew up back East so I'm straight-forward and sincere and looking for same things in a girl. Like most people I am busy with work and being active so I really don't have time with meaningless dating etc. I'm up for a bite/drink/ hike or anything fun to see if we click.

Date a man from United States. I'm a focused, intelligent, motivated and achievement oriented goofball that has learned to focus energy on the important things in life-family, friends, and other interpersonal relationships. For the first time in my life, I finally am feeling "ready" to meet that special person to share my life with and when we are ready, build a small family. I've realized that all I've accomplished in life will pale in comparison to an amazing relationship and I am ready for that reward.
I also still love being on the edge (a bit further away than I used to), ;) feeling alive and doing new things! I spend a lot of time working, teaching and training in the martial arts (4th Degree Black Belt), riding motorcycles for fun (ex-Pro level road bike racer) and driving my vehicles at the track/instructing/learning but I also love to slow down, come to my new home and would like to share my time with someone special...
I try to enjoy life each and every day and am constantly working on improving myself while not taking the world or myself too seriously. The struggle for "balance" is constant and I refine my definition of that word the more that I strive for it...
I would love to meet somebody who wants to share her heart, time, experiences, knowledge and drive with me. Somebody out there has "IT" and that is what I'm looking for.
I *think* that my ideal woman is happy, smart, sexy, driven, sweet, balanced, sophisticated, fit, FUN, adventurous, healthy, strives for self improvement, open to new experiences, independent, strong, gentle, romantic, caring, laughs at my jokes (even bad ones), honest, trustworthy, patient, perfect (ok, maybe not-that would be boring), communicative, open, self-aware, not psychotic, family oriented, in control of her life, clean (must shower occasionally), originally female, girly sometimes, not girly sometimes, and I'll think of more as soon as I meet her...
Oh, in case you haven't noticed yet, I like to joke and mess around a bit. I find that it takes the edge off of life so you must be able to endure my playful and mostly loving torture!
Do me a favor and smile and then drop me an email and say hello... ;)

Meet men and women from United States. Want to get to know a little bit about me? Well...
I'm passionate about living life to the fullest and taking a positive approach to enjoy each day. I’m optimistic even in challenging times and don’t sweat the small things. I apply this passion to work, family and friends.
Life is all about the simple pleasures! I love walking my dogs, spending time at the beach or in the mountains, bike rides, watching the sunset, a drink and good conversation with friends, going on road trips as well as staying in and being warm and cozy on a rainy day.
I love to travel and the outdoors. There’s nothing better than going to a new place and experiencing something new or going back to a favorite place and doing it again. It’s important to me to get out and try new things, even if it is outside my back door. I like to stay fit and maintain a relatively healthy lifestyle by working out and being active.
Professionally, I have an excellent job and love what I do. I’m a super hard worker, humble, and take pride in my work. Everyday I am thankful for it.
My friends, family and dogs mean the world to me. It’s important to me to take time to enjoy the people and the world around me. Life is made sweeter each day spent with the people I enjoy and love.
I'm looking for someone who is genuine, a good person, who has a zest for life and takes time to appreciate her surroundings, who is comfortable in her own shoes, who is somewhat adventurous and physically active, who sees life is greater when shared, and looking to share life with someone else.
Look forward to getting to know you!

Date people from United States. There is a long and interesting history behind the development of my character. I grew up in Europe, Asia and the East Coast and recently moved back to my native Santa Monica so interested to meet people and a special someone. I am not a photo snapper and I am told by all that I look better in person. I am humble, confident, self-made and one of the most laid-back guys you will ever meet with ambition. I am a thrillseeker yet down to earth. I am active and energetic. I love having fun but I am not one to play games. I prefer to shop at grocery and bookstores and drink and dance at bars instead of trolling around there, so here I am on this website saying "Cheers Ladies."
I am looking for a fun-loving woman who is honest, sincere, emotionally open and available; attractive mentally and physically; she is feminine and not a tomboy and she should have an interest in living overseas at some point in Europe or Asia but wants to make the most of her time here in LA with a world conscious man. Even a cyber moment is precious and time is wasting so what are you waiting for?

Meet a soulmate from United States. Small Town Farm Boy Seeks Big City Princess. (that was going to be my other heading in case you were wondering but my sarcastic side won out).
Well..where to start? I could talk about me..but really, I'm more interested in you. Are you the free spirit or the hopeless romantic? Do you like to watch the sunset..or the sunrise? Is your musical taste Chopin, Coldplay or Chemical Brothers? Or maybe you're a little bit of everything.
Which is kinda like me. I'm from a small farm town in PA (literally 250 people) but have been living the big city life for about 15 years..first Boston (great), NYC (better) and now L.A. (which is kinda like the south of france...but with more attitude).
I work in the entertainment industry (I'll tell you more later) and my position demands alot of hours, which doesn't leave a lot of time for socializing, and I'm just never been into the bar scene, although, I do enjoy and surround myself with some of the most different, artistic, edgy and original people in the world.
I'm on Match because I don't date in my industry and think Match is a great "fate accelerate-or." I mean, it's pretty incredible that you can bypass 1 Million random occurrences of "stars aligning." For example: us both reaching for the same DVD at a going out of business Blockbuster and striking up a conversation about Ennio Morricone or John Cassavetes.
Anywayz, if you're like me, you know how to be silly yet serious, cleverly adventureous, spontaneously fun and at ALL times a great person (no games..unless we are playing Parcheesi). Speaking of which, I'm an incredibly honest person and though my profile says I'm 36 (for search purposes), I wanted to bring up that I'm 39, but most people I meet think I'm in my early 30s. I've actually had to spend most of my years going "the extra mile" and then some to get where I am in my career, when everyone else was partying (or had insider industry connections)...but now that I'm "there" I'd love to experience L.A. with someone ahh-maz-ing.
So what elese? Besides the usual things that most people like..unless something is funny with you..(i.e. movies, ice cream, 'a gershwin tune'..blah, blah)..I really LOVE: GREAT music (all kinds...country AND western...excellent if you get the movie reference), literature. great restaurants, dancing when the music's right, classic sports cars (my fav:1967 Shelby GT 500 or 1969 Detomaso Mangusta..ok..that was my 'guy' moment), long days at the beach, collecting 1st Edition books (and that was my nerd moment), using my passport, staying in shape and just the plain old Wildflour Pizza on Main St., a DVD, and crashing on the sofa and a Robert Parker 90 rated glass of wine.
Maybe I'll be able to experience a little bit of these with you?!
I love strong, very smart (genius preferred!), creative and independent women and the woman that doesn't know how beautiful she really is.
Ok..let's be honest..in Los Angeles there are a lot of 'pretty girls'..but not many that are truly beautiful or high quality and original people. Does that make sense? My hunch is it's the same on the guy side.
I guess what I'm saying is that I am really looking for a REAL woman. Someone that is going to inspire and challenge me, make me feel alive and vice versa.
Hmm what else...I think Garth Brooks set it best: "She's sun and rain, she's fire and ice, A little crazy but it's nice And when she gets mad, you best leave her alone She's so New York and then L.A., And every town along the way, She's every place that I've never been. She's makin love on rainy nights. She's a stroll through Christmas lights And she's everything I want to do again."
