Date women from United States / California / Soledad, 41 year old

Date a soulmate from California, United States. I consider myself to be a caring and confident woman that enjoys the simple pleasures in life and enjoys setting goals and accomplishing them. I enjoy a variety of things in life, mostly simple things.. a nice day out with the kids, a day trip to the beach, a night out with friends, a romantic dinner for two, and a nature trail hike are some of the things that I like to do. I consider myself very blessed to have a professional job that love and that gives me an opportunity to positively impact those I come in contact with each day. I have a sensitive heart and love to nuture those closest to me....however I do expect others put in a conscious effort in doing their best in all they do and doing them whole heartedly with no preconceived expectation in return. I desire a man that I can be equally yoked with, intellectually, emotionally and physically. I enjoy stimulating conversation and being enlightened about subjects that I am not familiar with. I prefer a man that is effectively managing his life, career, family and finances on his own and is now ready to open himself up for a kind, supportive, and passionate partner. Some of the qualities that I am looking for in a man are: Trustworthy, Patient, Thoughtful, Respectful, Reliable, Honorable, Kind, Law Abiding, God Fearing, Funny, Manly, Considerate, and Passionate. I love a man who is a true gentleman but is also a "Man's Man"..meaning he loves the outdoors, likes to fix things, and is good at it..(lol), and can take charge in situations that require it. He has to respect all others around him even if he doesn't like them or feel a need for them. A man that is a good communicator and knows how to be diplomatic are qualities that I find very appealing. I love to sit back and watch a man in action while he works effectively with others. I believe I am a quality woman with many positive attributes that will make a man of excellent caliber very fulfulled...

Meet someone special from California, United States. About me. I love to wine taste and new to this area, so anyone who wants to show me around...let me know :) I also enjoy hiking, running and go for long walks on the beach. Lately my favorite has been hiking. I am starting to get addicting and a little sun burned. I am a mother of two children who keep me on my toes at all times. I enjoy spending time with them, but on the other hand..I love my alone time as well.
I was born and raised in San Luis Obispo. I then relocated to the valley where I attended Fresno State until I had to leave school and raise my family. I had the chance to rent out my house and relocate to Monterey County, so this is how I ended back on the coast. I live in Soledad and I like the quiet part of this town. The wind on the other hand, WOW! I am looking to move closer to Monterey or maybe Gilroy/Hollister area. All these little towns are really nice and anyone of them would be great!
Who I am looking for: I am looking for someone that loves to cook and stay at home for quiet evenings. I also am a get up and go kinda gal! I love last minute out of town trips. I don't have my children with me on some weekends so this opens me up for fun weekend getaways. I also like to get out for dinners and looking for that special someone who likes dressing up to go out for dinner or what ever we have planned for that evening. I love to engage into long conversations, but also enjoy listening to others values. It helps understand where the other is coming from and I like learning new things about other people.
If any of this is appealing..send me a note. Winks are okay, but I like to read...I also enjoy reading profiles. Some are very creative and I am sure mine will go that way...eventually.
I agree that is is tough to write about yourself and I am not the kind of person who loves to just talk about me me me....
