Date women from United States / California / Sausalito, 39 year old

Date someone special from Sausalito, United States. Well this has been quite the experience… I have gone from skeptical, to doubtful, to hopeful, to disappointed. But then I guess that’s just the way dating goes…
Two things I believe in: everything happens for a reason and timing is everything. IРІР‚в„ўve been on match 3 months and I guess I can sum up my dating experience in either one of those categories. So I suppose I will give match another go around. I feel IРІР‚в„ўve come close, but perhaps itРІР‚в„ўs time to give my profile a little refresher after what IРІР‚в„ўve experienced.
The past few years I devoted every minute of my time to work, family and friends when I can- and I suppose I am still single because of that. What IРІР‚в„ўve realized is you have to make time for finding someone, make time for getting to know each other and make time for things to grow. I realize the person IРІР‚в„ўm looking for is probably just as dedicated to their career and spending spare time with their family and friends as I am, I mean thatРІР‚в„ўs why weРІР‚в„ўre here right? But I want to find someone like me- someone who really is ready and wants someone to share his life, career and family. My business keeps me busy, but I am committed to making time for the right person, but canРІР‚в„ўt afford to give it to someone who isnРІР‚в„ўt just as committed.
So I guess that’s my new “prelude”, the rest about me, and what I want isn’t really going to change…
I always figured I would meet someone by just being out there doing the things I love. IРІР‚в„ўm very athletic and love to be outdoors whether IРІР‚в„ўm cycling, skiing, playing golf, running trails in the headlands or playing soccer. (I was recently told I may have a better chance of meeting a man playing soccer if I would stop knocking them down.) I also love going to the theater, spending the day in the city, on the beach, in the wine country, Tahoe, Tahoe, Tahoe or taking a day trip to Carmel, Monterey or just a spot on the map I have yet to explore.
I am happy with my life, love my little business I’ve created which allows me to work with people in industries I’m passionate about and gives me freedom to make my own schedule. I’m honest to a fault and hate conflict. I can easily put myself into another shoes and can always see both sides of a situation. I’m a planner because I need to be, but love any spontaneous adventure thrown my way! My entire family was raised on sarcasm and has quite the dry sense of humor… I suppose some would say I'm a bit of a "smart-ass", I prefer "witty".
I would like to find someone that has common interests and goals so we can be supportive of each otherРІР‚в„ўs careers and have fun together doing the things we love. I want a man who is honest, trusting, confident, passionate about the things that matter most to him and someone that will truly be my best friend and partner. I want to be with someone that can hold an intelligent conversation one minute and then make me laugh to tears the next. I want to feel chemistry between us that is undeniable and impossible to resist.
My guy is just as comfortable, and having just as much fun, whether weРІР‚в„ўre getting decked out for an event, hanging out in a lodge or bumming it around a campfire. You love good food and good wine, whether that means going out or cooking at home. You LOVE and cherish your family and did I mention how funny you are?
All right well that should give you a little insight, the good stuff will have to wait for a real conversation. The one last thing you should know is that my work is important to me, but you will always come first.
Oh- and I don't respond to faceless messages- If I'm going to put myself out there, so should you....
And the search goes on….

Meet a soulmate from Sausalito, United States. A blank box in which I'm supposed to draw a picture of myself, and even more improbably, of "you". I'll give you facts; you can pick through them like a pile of puzzle pieces (tip: find the corners). I grew up in South Florida, have lived in many places since and traveled to many, many more. Still bad at packing. Strangers tend to tell me their secrets. I feel at home near the ocean. I love books - when I was a kid, I would put them in Ziplock bags so I could read in the shower. I love my job, but I need passions outside of work. I want to write a novel, this year. I work in the wine industry, and it's the most interesting blend (groan) of art, science, and business. I like to sweat, move fast, be in water. I like growing things, making dinner from my own garden. I get disproportionately proud of myself for household tasks like putting together furniture, painting a table. I'm a really good cook, and my friends make out because i love cooking for people. I'm happy with my life, but I still have a lot of goals to hit. I'm not someone who always needs to be on the go - no reader or writer is - but I like being tested and find myself growing restless when I haven't challenged myself in a while. I like making people laugh and being made to laugh in smart ways. I've had the same best friend for about 30 years. I'm close to my family. In the morning hummingbirds come to braid my hair.
The man I'm looking for is someone special. Someone who people want to be around. Someone smart in unique ways, maybe brilliant. Cute is good. Likes to be active, likes to be with me. Likes when I make him dinner and doesn't mind eating late. Must make me laugh, must say things that surprise me and make me think. I'm looking for a man who makes me feel like I was right to wait. I want to crave his thoughts and his touch.

Date a woman from Sausalito, United States. I am loyal and sincere. What you see is what you get. I like people who take good care of themselves, are driven but can relax and enjoy life and try new things. Must be able to laugh at yourself! Nothing makes me happier than the water (surfing, paddleboarding, swimming or hanging out) and my friends and family. I love to travel and see new things but also love my down time and kicking back.

Meet someone special from California, United States. Athletic, overly earnest, sensitive Sausalito gal seeks passionate, squared-away boy/man. A smattering of self-aggrandizing adjectives: I aspire to kindness and compassion; to better myself and the lives of my friends, family and partner; to be strong; to sharpen my mind and body to its acme of beauty; to see my footprints in the soil of lands distant and near and know that I walked with an open mind, eyes and heart; to inaugurate myself fully to the fundamental joy of living; to look back on a long life and feel that it spread positive ripples through our world. Life's a gift and I feel the best way for me to show my gratitude is to live fully in the moment, both feet in, taking risks. Running, working out, hiking, camping, wakeboarding, snowboarding, swimming, playing joyfully, gardening, projecting on the home, motorcycling (learning), drawing, reading, volunteering, ponderous conversation and side-splitting laughter with friends, live music, and deep silence, and the multitudes of mysteries... should it frighten me to want so much? As for a partner, well, I think we are all looking for someone to share our experiences with; someone to extol in our mastery and comfort us when we walk the valley alone and lose our way; someone to hear our stories and share their own. Ideally, I'd like to find a man who can help me become more than I am, who raptures in life's experience. Patience, humor, passion, creativity, kindness; an inquisitive mind, nimble body and adventurous spirit come to mind. Someone who is comfortable in myriad roles and environments. Someone who can embody both simplicity and complexity. I know, it's a lot to ask, but I hold high hopes for the possibility of existence.
