Date women from United States / California / Sherman Oaks, 41 year old

Date someone special from Sherman Oaks, United States. Sarcastic, down to earth, opinionated, direct, and compassionate - I go with the flow. The one thing I know, is that I don't know, but I'm open to all the possibilities. I say please and thank you, look people in the eye when speaking, and never forget introductions-I'm all about good manners and dislike pretense. I'm a natural night owl struggling to conform to waking at insane o'clock for my job; I'm a teacher in downtown LA.
I spent most of my twenties wandering around Europe (note to self-"wandering around Europe"-for someone who doesn't like pretense, that statement is questionable), lived in London for two years, and then fell in love with southeast Asia while backpacking through Thailand and Laos. I love traveling- next on my wish list-Vietnam, India, and Kuala Lumpur...mostly because I like saying-Kuala Lumpur. If it's off the beaten path, that's where I'm probably off exploring.
Music - In the car, most likely talk radio - Stephanie Miller ,Randi Rhodes.
For other times-classic rock, lots of 70's cheese-Elliot Smith, Aimee Mann, John Lennon,Hendrix, Joplin, Journey, Tom Jones, Manilow, Pretenders, early Bowie.
Truth be told, I really don't listen to my Hi-Fi that much anymore. That being said-70's trivia and one hit wonders-bring it.
Looking for a man who makes me smile, and laugh, often. A man with strength, compassion, and a kind heart; someone who wears a shirt in his photos-well, that's just icing on the cake.
postscript-Not feelin' the cut and paste.

Meet a soulmate from Sherman Oaks, United States. Hello,
I am single mommy to a wonderful 4-year old boy. Being a mom has been the best thing that has happened to me. Now having said that. It is a priority for me to meet someone special to spend the rest of my life with. We can start off as friends and leading to a committed and romantic relationship. I am not looking for someone to take care of my son or me. I am an indepedent woman with a full-time job. I llike the simple things in life such as walks on the beach, tennis, volleyball or watching a good movie. What's attractive to me? Honesty, loyalty, and a sense of humor. I like to laugh and have a good time. I don't mind if he has children. If he does not has children, then that's okay, too. Beware: Serious Candidates Only! I don't have time for games. If you are in a different states or country, please do not respond. If you are interested in spending romantic nights together and you live in California, then send me an email. I would like to hear from you.

Date a woman from Sherman Oaks, United States. I am a happy, creative, fun, confident, independent woman that is ready to share my life with someone special. I love to travel, go to movies, and concerts. I'm a children's book author and music teacher. I Love cooking, dancing, going to Griffith Park Observatory, Disneyland, art, college football is my favorite sport to watch.....go HUSKERS......i enjoy swimming, foosball (of all things), beach volleyball, symphonies, festivals, and long walks.
I definitely want to date a guy that is caucasian, taller than me, prefer blue eyes but not a deal-breaker, no vices like drinking/drugs/smoking, he's stable, loving and affectionate, emotionally available, and enjoys trying new things. Rarely do I do the same event/function twice, unless it's at a concert venue. There's so much to do in LA, I love to explore new places.
I want to meet a guy who is looking for a mate. At this stage of my life I definitely want at least one child, but don't want to enter that phase of life alone. I don't mind if the guy has children already, the more the merrier, but I want to experience having a child too.
I believe it's more important that we like each other first and can work well together as a couple. I'm looking for a person that will laugh with me through good and bad. When the baby needs changed we look at each other and go "yeah, your turn babe", or when we get a flat on the freeway out in the middle of nowhere (no cell service) we look at each other and say "let's start walking" and we sing songs or just talk on our "adventure", or if there's an earthquake we look at each other and ask "You ok? Yeah you? lets go check on the neighbors". You never know what curve will be thrown at you and at this point in life I'm looking for "the one" that's not only looking to be happy in our relationship but is concerned about those around us. That we are a happy, productive couple in our society and those who know us say, "those two are the coolest couple I know. they're the best!"

Meet someone special from California, United States. Wow, about me...
Well, I've always lived in NY but have relocated to LA. I’m in the legal profession. My job can be hectic at times but I don't let it take over my life. I love “me-time”. Being a Sagittarius, I think I’m true to my sign. I like to joke around but I know when it's time to be serious. I try to have a pretty positive outlook on life, am full of energy and like to try new things. I enjoy traveling and exploring. I try to be optimistic. I’m sincere and straight forward. Sometime too much (I'm working on that). I’m a flirt. Now that, I can't help nor do I wish to help it (haa, haa).
I speak French and Spanish. I have a large and diverse extended family and I love it. Being around family and friend is wonderful.
I try to have a pretty positive outlook on life, am full of energy and like to try new things. I like checking out the sites in the city and exploring. I enjoy going to the museum, traveling, going dancing, trying out different restaurants, reading a good book, shopping and letРІР‚в„ўs not forget traveling !! (I guess I mentioned that). I also like just hanging out at home doing whatever.
Truly, I want to be able to share my life w/that special someone. IРІР‚в„ўm looking for my combo, someone I can bring out the best in and someone who can bring out the best in me. I want no games and a person drama free.
A side note: I'm very ticklish, very ticklish you'd be surprised how much but I hate (I repeat hate) to be tickled...well sometimes.(thought IРІР‚в„ўd mention that ; ) Sounds confusing I know but If we get to know each other you'll understand what I mean.

Date a soulmate from California, United States. I am a nice woman who loves to be outdoors, spend time with family and friends, and laugh. I love life and have realized that life is too short to sweat the small stuff. I live drama-free and am grateful for the friends, family, and career I have. I am looking for a man who shares my interest and wants and someone who I can grow with through my relationship.

Meet a woman from California, United States. I feel that I am a very giving and caring person. I would like to meet someone who understands me ("gets me") and that I in turn understand them ("get them"). Chemisty and forming a good friendship are very important to me. I can be both sociable and be a homebody at times as well. I enjoy new experiences and learning from others. I love watching movies, dining out, and weekend getaways. I also don't mind some dancing once in a while. Spending time at home with a special person is also important to me. Forming a common bond with that special person and enjoying the pleasures that life has to offer together, can be a very fulfilling life experience. I am genuinely seeking someone who wants to be in a committed relationship. So serial daters need not apply.

Date someone special from United States. Creative, honest, loyal, a bit of a control freak :-) (but in a good way)
I enjoy working on my house and always look forward to designing my next home improvement project.
I donРІР‚в„ўt like to cook on a daily basis, but I do enjoy cooking for parties and family functions, whether it is preparing one of my grandmaРІР‚в„ўs recipes from scratch or trying a new recipe from a magazine. Some of the best conversations happen around the dinner table sharing a good meal.
I believe that you need to be a good friend to have good friends. You can tell a lot about a person by the company they keep.
I enjoy traveling to new places. IРІР‚в„ўm the kind of person who enjoys planning day excursions on my vacations. If your idea of vacation is lying on the beach all day, IРІР‚в„ўm not your kind of girl. (Oh, did I mention, I can be a little direct? ;-)
Chemistry is very important to me. I believe you can tell if you have chemistry within the first few minutes of meeting someone.
I am looking for someone who is intelligent, independent, goal oriented, down to earth and has a sense of humor (someone who knows when to be serious but can also be silly). IРІР‚в„ўm looking for a guy who is just as comfortable at a ball game as he is at the theater. I like college football and make no excuses for the 6 Saturdays out of the year that are spent at the coliseum with friends and family. Finding someone who is willing to come along is a plus.
