Date men and women from United States / California / Santa Monica, 37 year old - page 2

Date someone special from Santa Monica, United States. Funloving, athletic and witty Englishman still warming up to the idea of internet dating - but what the hell, I'll give anything a crack. In my spare time I like spending time with my chunky bulldog, keeping fit and going out with mates.
I'm looking for someone who is cool, relaxed, looks after herself and is of course stunningly good looking! (I don't ask for much do I?). Hopefully you will share my love of skiing, tennis, running and/or the wine country. Having lived in San Francisco for 6 years I decided to move south for some sunshine!
I have a chandelier business making very unique, rustic custom-made pieces.
Please no winks - I think they're a little lazy to be honest. I'm sure you prefer it when someone actually takes the time to read your profile and write a non-generic email so I'm just asking for the same, cheers. I look forward to meeting the one!!

Meet men and women from Santa Monica, United States. Hi, thanks for checking out my profile!
So....I'd love to sit here and tell you that I'm amazing, better than all the other guys on this site or the world for that matter. I'm not, or more correctly, I'm great for that select few that would REALLY click with me.
I'm easy to get along with, I won't sit and talk about myself all night long. I'm in to fitness and love endurance sports. I am a water junkie, if it involves H20 I'm into it. I love to travel, been a few places, looking for the next great adventure.
You: awesome and real. down for whatever, thoughtful and empathetic. Fun loving and interested in seeing as much as possible before...you know...your bucket list rules.

Date a soulmate from Santa Monica, United States. I would hate to bore you by telling you how wonderful I am by attaching to my name a bunch of flattering adjectives. I am sure that you have already found this about two hundred times in all the other profiles. I believe that words are cheap, but actions speak much louder, so why bother?
So, why not start with my bad stuff – On the negative side: I am spontaneous and restless at times, I cried twice like a girl when I watched “The Notebook,” and stay up way too late way too often. I have little patience for flakes and fake people. I'm not that great at typing - still using a variation of "hunt and peck". I love dogs but hate their owners that don't clean up after them.
How about you? What annoyed you today? And what made you weak in your knees from joy and pleasure?
I enjoy making people laugh. I am intelligent and can carry on meaningful conversations. I care about other people’s feelings. When I’m with someone special I like being spontaneous, adventurous, romantic, surprising them with little gestures, sensual, playful, and basically having that type of fun you see two people who just met in the movies having! Someone to laugh with, hang out with, be spontaneous with, and have fun with! I’m looking for someone who has similar qualities and desires someone who they can connect with . . . . . . I feel there has to be mutual physical attraction for there to be good chemistry between two people. So being fit and having good looks are important, as well as sensuality and affection. . . . . . Having some similar interests helps–some things I enjoy are dining out, chilling at the beach - playing volleyball, bar and restaurant hopping, watching movies and going to comedy shows, traveling, going trips to local attractions and nearby resort areas, having romantic nights at home, cuddling, and basically having a blast together. . . . . .
On the positive side: I'm upbeat and positive - I can find the humor in almost any situation and can also take a joke and I'm not easily offended. I think that sarcasm is a spice of life. I can spell. I'm generally a happy go lucky person. I'm friendly and outgoing, and get along with just about anyone. I'm goal oriented and motivated - I go after what I want with gusto.
I'll be honest, I'm only attracted to beautiful girls who can just be themselves and aren't too superficial, basically a girl who can let her hair down and have a beer! I'd like to find a girl who likes the beach, has a great sense of humor, and doesn't mind picking me up carrying me around in her arms when my legs get tired from walking - I've got the stamina of a 2 1/2 year old child.

Meet a man from Santa Monica, United States. The greatest compliment I have ever received was "When you are around, everyone is happier."
The idea of meeting someone online seems quite bizarre to me but I thought I would give it a whirl. It seems nearly impossible to get a read on someone until you actually get a chance to have a real conversation. Hopefully, this will be a conduit to spark conversation with someone truly amazing.
About me......Hmmm.....I am looking for someone who can keep up on the next series of adventures. I am well educated, come from a great family and am successful in my personal and business life. I am well traveled and have touched every continent with the exception of Antartica(don't plan on that one). I am very active and try to get out on the beach as much as possible. I love to cook but have little time for it now. I have really done a lot of cool things in my life and am looking forward to the next adventures.

Date people from Santa Monica, United States. A little about me: I live in Santa Monica in a nice place by the ocean, and I love it here. I'm a professional investor (hedge fund manager), which I'm passionate about and expect to be doing for a long time. Some favorite activities: soccer (played in college and still play now), yoga, beach/pool time (have a few favorite spots). Some new pursuits: hiking the best U.S. parks (2011: Malibu, Yosemite, Big Sur, Grand Canyon, Mt. Rainier, Kauai), sports photography. Some fun facts about me: I've met with Steve Jobs and eaten pizza with Bill Gates; I tend to agree with Roger Ebert's reviews about 80% of the time, except for French films; I have a bit of an obsession with hot tubs.

Meet a soulmate from United States. I've always been a big believer in chance, trusting that some day I'd make eye contact across a crowded room, meet while walking my dog in the park or start a wine related altercation at BevMo that would lead to some witty banter and sharing a toothbrush. Apparently, I've been too goal oriented in my dog walking & wine buying. Actually, I'd never share a toothbrush, cavities are contagious.

Date someone special from United States. I'm trying this out because I now know 2 people who found amazing matches on here. So I figured, why not at least check it out? I should also point out that I am currently in a job where I am still trying to find a work/life balance. So far the 'life' thing is losing out.
So, okay, I don't take myself too seriously because, well, I find people who are too serious are boring. I do voice over work on occasion while holding down a day job. I love art, music, animals and animation of all types; I have a degree in animation, actually. I tend to gravitate towards the creative type of guy. I'm pretty laid back, I laugh a lot, some times at the worst jokes imaginable. I can't help it, I have a quirky sense of humor. Also I find talking about myself to be a tad pretentious. Okay, I just wanted to use the word 'pretentious' in a sentence.
I enjoy working out, Pilates and just walking. I try to take care of myself and am looking for someone who does the same. I also like beer. This, however, does not mean I drink I lot, I just enjoy a good beer from time to time. I'd like to find someone who not only can enjoy a good beer with me but is creative, interesting, has a good sense of humor and is educated. Of course pretty much all of that is subjective... except the part about beer.
I'm not sure what else to say other than I am not insane (that I know of) and I have never seen the inside of a jail cell. Whether or not either of those things is good or bad depends on your perspective, I guess. I do like to think that I have more personality than a common house plant, but again, that's probably subjective, isn't it?

Meet men and women from United States. Ok let's face it. You men don't actually READ the profiles....,you just LOOK at the pictures :)
I'm from Salt Lake City, Utah and have been living in California for over ten years. I love to run, spin, snowboard, yoga, dance, and hit the gym. But I also like to wear some make up, toss my hair, wear a dress and heels for a night on the town. I enjoy being around intelligent, funny and sarcastically witty people. I love to laugh and enjoy people who don't take themselves too seriously and can just be silly. I'm easy to talk to and make friends easily. I'm the type of girl that will watch or go to a basketball/football game with you, handle my own if you take me to a party, and be respectful to your friends and family. Family and friends are so dear and very important to me. I think having a strong family foundation and real relationships with people you care about is what life is all about. I've traveled a lot and love spontaneous getaways. As for a relationship.....there's got to be that spark and we both have to make each other laugh!
You:
- Be yourself
- Be a gentleman (chivalry is awesome)
- Smart/ambitious men are a turn on
- Funny/wittiness will make me weak in the knees....
- Be easy going and have an open mind
- Be physically active....because if I like you...I hope you'll be around for a very long time :)

Date people from United States. Hi there! I work in the film business and love my job. But when I'm not working, I enjoy working out, cooking, trying new restaurants, snowboarding, and catching up on past seasons of Sex and the City. I love LA and enjoy exploring all it has to offer.
Between friends, family, work, and volunteering, I generally lead a busy life, but don't worry, if you're cute enough, I'll make time for you :). I always make time for the people and things that matter.
If you're a sweet, smart guy, and want to know more...send me a note!

Meet a woman from United States. And I quote the talented Montell Jordan when I say that I guess "This
Is How We Do It...." This is my maiden voyage into the online dating
world of Match.com. Not that I have any objections to the process-
almost every friend I have is or has been on the site at one point or
another. I hear the great successful love stories and the ridiculous
colossal fails alike. I guess for me, 1) I never really have had
problems meeting men (just quality men seeking a monogamous
relationship )and 2) have been painfully mortified of writing a personal
profile. How does one capture who they are in quick paragraph that is
funny and interesting using the correct buzz words without appearing
conceited or desperate? The net net is that I'm still single and am
looking for someone to share the journey so here's trying...
I am young at heart with a lot of energy. I probably have not gone a
day without laughing and making someone else laugh-even it is at my
own expense. I am an avid runner and commited to an active, healthy
lifestyle...I am generous with my heart, kindness, and compassion and
would expect the same from my mate. I am motivated, independent, and
have worked hard to create a comfortable life without a lot of
financial stress. I love music, movies, socializing, the outdoors,
sports (both as a player and spectator...can LA pull together a NFL
team please???), big group dinners as well quiet nights at home pour
deux. I like to be challenged and feel that you can learn a little
something from everyone (even if it is how NOT to behave)...everyone
brings something to the party. I try to be very open minded and love
to embrace the journey of others I REALLY enjoy traveling but am
terribly lacking in this pursuit. My list of "places to see" is often
sacrificed for the "things to do" list. I would love for this to
change.
Chemistry is everything and I firmly believe that beauty generates
from within. I have unfortunately seen some very pretty people get really ugly really fast and
personality, humor, charm can go a long way. That said, I won't
sacrifice attraction- I tried that before and it won't ever happen
again. I am not at all interested in the "a-hole" -used to, but now
I'm into the nice guy that treats me like he would his sister, mother,
or any other woman he really cherishes although I'd be lying if I said
I didn't like an "edge." I also believe that you don't always know what you want to do with your life until your doing it so I try to keep an open mind and heart!

Date a soulmate from California, United States. As I spend much of my professional life marketing people and companies, have to admit I find it a bit tough to do so for myself but here goes. Above and beyond everything...I love traveling/adventure... I know...me and everyone else on here but its definitely true. I dont have as much time for really getting out there as I used to but I try and take a couple of cool trips a year. Aside from traveling...love music, photography, yoga, great restaurants, good red wine, anything in the outdoors and anything with a little adventurous twist.
As far as what I am looking for I guess thats even harder to sum up as chemistry is inexplicable but I can say would be cool to meet someone who loves getting out there as much as I do but can also be mellow and grounded in one place. Family and friends are everything to me and I feel lucky and privileged to have the people I have in my life.

Meet someone special from California, United States. WHO AM I??.... I am the unique pearl in an oyster shell that you need to dive into the ocean to retrieve (: The words that others have used to describe me would be "authentic and real." I am the girl who is fun loving and playful with a sense of humor, but knows when to be serious. I enjoy the outdoors and being active, but I also enjoy staying in and watching a movie. I am family oriented, attractive, intelligent, cultured, outgoing, directed, and have a golden heart. I am so much more, and it would be great to find that special man to share that with. I still believe in chivalry, and hope to find the man who does as well.
What I am looking for:
You are a man who is attractive in my eyes, family oriented, EMOTIONALLY AVAILABLE, intelligent, ambitious, kind, and trustworthy. You have INTEGRITY, communicate, are a problem solver because you don't run when an issue arrises, and are able to commit and give things a chance because you realize that there is a great relationship that can flourish. You know how to recognize and appreciate a good woman, and want to/are ready to be in a healthy relationship.
