Date women from United States / California / Santa Rosa, 49 year old

Date a soulmate from California, United States. Random thoughts of you make me smile. You love to hang out, but have get up and go as well. You say you love camping, and you actually mean it... and do it! You really do love animals. Your words reflect the man you are, not the man you think someone wants you to be. You can leave work at work and not look at your watch and cell phone for an entire night. You'll drink cold beer with me at 11am while we do yard work- it's a must. You're not afraid of comfortable silence. It's OK that I listen more than talk. I can procrastinate all I want on the weekends. If the sun is out in the morning- I want to be lounging by my pool. My kitchen will comfortably hold the two of us... cooking and dancing around. What I really like is that comfortable, thrilling feeling when your arms are around me and I can lean back against you. Makes standing in line at a concert that much better! And although I don't want to hit someone, nor take a punch, I'd love to take boxing lessons!
Sometimes it's just fun to pop in here and read about you. Some stuff is quite clever~ and the entertainment factor paired with your smile can make the end of a long day that much better. Truth be told, though, I'd rather have you close by than across an internet connection. I hope that we develop strong stomach muscles together- whether it's butterflies or belly laughs.

Date a woman from United States. Missing from my life: your arms, your smile from across the room, a text from you in the middle of a hectic day. I have a good life, but everything is better with someone to love.
Full discolure: I'm in the latter half of a lengthy, financially complicated, but cordial divorce. Emotionally and physically divorced for years, just working through the legal mechanics. Details available upon request, if you're concerned (which I probably would be, in your shoes, so please ask).
About me: I'm cheerful in the mornings, even without coffee (sorry if this offends!). My friends say I’m sweet, funny, extremely cute (that’s why they’re my friends, right?). I’m a sucker for romance; I’ll try out any of your hobbies if you can convince me it will be romantic. I read constantly – contemporary and classic fiction, non-fiction on scientific subjects, People magazine when I’m getting my hair cut. I work in the organic food industry, so am a bit of a foodie, and love all kinds of cuisine. I’m a geek (an engineer by training), and I love my work, but I easily leave it behind at the end of the day. I stay fit so I’ll be active and happy for as long as I can. I walk miles at every opportunity (love Sonoma County, lots of options). I sometimes even break into a run, but then I slow down again to enjoy the scenery. I swing dance. I've jumped out of perfectly functional airplanes. I stop to chase down stray dogs on the freeway. Even with all of this, my kids think I’m un-cool, which hopefully means I’m doing a good job as a parent. They're fabulous kids, and some of my favorite company. I’m proud that I can still make my 15-year-old son laugh out loud. My 12-year-old rolls her eyes, but she likes me. I have a large, local family, full of eccentric, kind people, and I see them often.
What do I find attractive? ItРІР‚в„ўs no one thing, but I know it when I see it (as do you, IРІР‚в„ўm sure). I love funny men, but the humor shouldnРІР‚в„ўt be at someone elseРІР‚в„ўs expense. The best thing for me is probably a man whoРІР‚в„ўs a sweet, funny (hot) dork. Outwardly strong, inwardly mushy, thatРІР‚в„ўs my ideal. I like a man whose first response, in almost any circumstance, is to fold me into his arms. YouРІР‚в„ўre independent, but you know that we still need each other. YouРІР‚в„ўre a confident man who is in control of his life, and has a clear vision of the future. Passionate: willing to talk about what you want, in love with a womanРІР‚в„ўs skin. Fit: not necessarily an athlete, but you eat well and exercise with the intent of living a long time. You value your own family and will probably be entertained by mine. I like people who are interested in the world, and its history and future. And who like to travel (I donРІР‚в„ўt care if itРІР‚в„ўs world-wide, or across the U.S., but interested in more than just our small corner of the planet).
We both like to get up in the morning, and we enjoy new experiences more when theyРІР‚в„ўre shared. Travel, theater, dining out, concerts, local events. Or staying in, watching a movie as an excuse for making out (kissing, definitely one of my favorite things). We can appreciate time apart, too, since too much togetherness can be a little claustrophobic!
Are you my guy?

Meet someone special from United States. Honestly I'm a little "whelmed" with the whole online thing (if you saw Ten Things I Hate About You, you'll get the reference..."I know you can be overwhelmed and you can be underwhelmed, but can you ever just be whelmed?") Like you, I've heard stories, and maybe even know someone, who found his or her happily-ever-after this way, but it's a bit one-dimensional for my taste. It's certainly worth a try, but if you find me not replying or returning those insipid winks, that's why.
But, for the sake of playing by the rules:
I'm in a good place in many ways - loving where I live, what I do, and whom I'm with. (I'm sorry, it's my inner-English major - I tried to write "who," but the "whom" insisted...) There's just a little something missing. Is it perhaps you?
I see myself drawn to an intelligent, humorous, offbeat, compassionate, responsible man, a good listener, who loves what he does, enjoys a variety of music, activity, down-time, indoor/outdoor pursuits and genuine curiosity about the world. I do better with positive people than those who are skeptical or overly sarcastic. I've been married once, for 17 years, and have been on my own now for nine.
I'd like to have someone in my life who can't wait to see me at the end of the day. I'll make him feel like the most important person in the room or the world, and he'll do the same. Certain songs will make sense again, and I'll unclench my heart little by little as we get to know one another. We'll figure out a balance of things to do together and on our own, and we'll enjoy the richness that comes from building something together and will continually learn about the world and each other. We'll travel, explore, stay home, picnic, be silly, debate the issues of the day and more.

Date a soulmate from Santa Rosa, United States. I am Costa Rican-English. I have two sides, one refined and one wild (50/50). I'm Athletic, Independent, Spiritual (Karma). I can be charming if I desire, yet aggressive if need be! I feel fire at times, as I AM a fire sign (Aries). Yet I can be very loving, loyal & empathetic to others and their feelings. I show the same respect as others show me, or show my stronger side if needed. I am a very strong female, don't like to be dominated and consider myself to be an equal in a relationship. I am not a feeble female. Respect tops my list!. I admire men who respect others, men who have consideration and know how to treat a woman. My Aura catches everyone's attention; people really feel my presence when I walk in a room. I enjoy meeting people! I do psycho- analyze people as a hobby; I can see fine details when others can't. I know when someone lies to me and don't have liars in my life. I'm truthful to others and expect the same respect in return. I don't date Con's, players & egomaniacs. I read body language as well as sensitive to energy in the room. I can figure things out when others have no clue. This is a gift and I use it wisely. I would defend a stranger if need be. If circumstances require, unafraid to confront. I enjoy music immensely, specifcally Jazz, sports, working out (weightlifting, yoga & hiking/jogging). One mMajor interest is restaurants, love a great breakfast, and enjoy dining out when I can. I love the outdoors, I'm a nature-lover (not a hunter), and I enjoy art, music, learning about investing & business building and the beauty life has to offer. I've never been married-by choice-but can appreciate legitimate, loving relationships! I have not found that special one yet! I believe the universe brings to you what you what you send out or truly desire.
I desire meeting the same.....authentic people with true values, men with excellent character, strength & intelligence! I desire seeing the beauty and underlying hidden treasures waiting to be discovered! I am a treasure-hunter!

Meet a woman from Santa Rosa, United States. My friends say I am funny. I am kind of pretty.
I love my family. Looking for someone who loves his family. He should be happy, most of the time.
Would like to find someone who likes to talk & listen.

Date someone special from Santa Rosa, United States. Snuggles by the fire, playing outdoor, cooking, gardening/landscaping, photography, the list goes on....Looking for a best friend, soul/play mate, genuine gentleman...someone who is fun, open to adventures, & enjoying life~!

. When I'm in my favorite fellowship I smile an awful lot. I'm grateful for my health, my sobriety, my home ,My Dad & the way my out look on life is changing. Good jokes I raed on my computer make me laugh out loud. I'm looking for a man with kind of the same qualities of myself & also to be self relient & happy with life as it is......

. My friends would probably describe me as a "laid back" girl next-door type. Very giving and loving. Witty without being sarcastic; good listener and easy to hang with. My ideal match would enjoy witty banter and enjoy good conversation (be able to keep up his end). I'm a talker and love someone who can reciprocate and not just nod their head. I'm also looking for someone who knows what they want in life and goes after it... a self confident individual who seeks more in their life. I am someone who takes things seriously when need be.. but as easily, can put things in perspective. I love my work and am dedicated to it, yet family comes first. My children mean the world to me and I work hard to make sure their needs are met and we have time. However, I too need time. And crave a special connection because nothing is better than that: that person you can count on, no matter what... that person you want to spend time with; and that person who doesnt judge but listens empathetically.
In my spare time, I enjoy getting together with friends and family. My favorite spots include anywhere close to water. It's hard to say what a "perfect date" would be, as it depends on the person I'm with and the mood that strikes. I enjoy both spontaneity as well as a well planned activity, and am open to just about anything!
My idea of Chemistry:
A meeting of the minds; a meeting of the bodies….
it sparks passion and romance. It sets the body aflame with wonder and desire.
It's mysterious and exciting.
It can make the heart race; and challenge even the most physically fit, to catch their breath.
Of course "it" is different for everyone.
For me, an attraction to what's inside is equally as important as the outside.
Looking for a confident individual who knows how to have fun; wants to find passion,
and knows how to light a match!
I'm a self confident woman who believes the "glass if half full"... the eternal optimist. I always attempt to find the positive in every situation. I gravitate toward those who have similar beliefs on this front. Life is short.. Live it to it's fullest!

. Life has so much to offer, and there is abundant joy in sharing experiences with someone else. Love and romance energizes our spirits and souls, a beautiful part of life and living. Yes, I am a romantic and someone who enjoys great friends, music, the outdoors, and being active every day. I enjoy my work, but I enjoy my play even more. Yes I am petite, but that doesn't slow me down. I want to find someone to share sweet, loving moments with, someone who enjoys the world as much as I do.
