Date someone special from Venice, United States. I'm small, goofy and sweet. My friends describe me as passionate, funny and easy to talk to.
That's probably because I love people - all kinds of people.
Diversity is important to me, as is respect for the planet and each other.
I don't drink, smoke or do drugs - mostly because I found those things were making life less fun instead of MORE fun.
You're smart and funny and love to laugh.
You do what you say you will and are comfortable being yourself.

Date a soulmate from Venice, United States. i-me- mine...
looking for the one that gets "it" gets me., will get us when we meet. not sure how to find the "spark" without the energy of one another, the unconscious primal scent of one another, the auras of each other. computers may be a window to glimpse
i want the one who has explored both inner and outer self. someone who has read and and seen and lived and loved and travelled enough, someone who ha struggled, failed, succeeded lost, been humbled and awed and still yearns to learn and has a passion for life...
i love life and celebrate all its wondrous facets. .... travel, art, music, lit.,nature, space, exotic peoples and lands...
i love being a mother and love my family and friends.
.
i'm open minded, love to read, learn & travel. i'm sincere and down to earth. i'm not good with rules or conformity. i'm independent and have always been a free lance artist of sorts and have always owned my own business. i promote spontaneity, innovation, creativity, imagination, impossibilities, equality and most of all balance. i have a soul of an artist and a head for business.
.have been blessed with love, lust and passion throughout my life and wish to find it again...
we are but a mere flicker in the brief flame of existence.....
Meet someone special from United States. Sophisticated, yet down to earth like a true Taurean... (Very sensuous, tactile and fiercely loyal) I am athletic and adventurous, I like the simple things and am more of a country girl rather than a city girl... however, as a former model... always a fashionista... love dressing up for my man, but I'm usually in jeans and can often be found at Home Depot...
I am a feminine yet strong woman. (Stronger than I want to be) monogamous and old fashioned.
Ambitious and driven, I work very hard but I can play hard too, I love to travel and love love love great hotels... lounging at the pool and spa, in room dining, pay per view, 1000 count sheets with my lover between them...
I enjoy dining out, and love to eat In and Out burgers too. I enjoy the symphony and like Akon. I'm a big Laker fan, but also adore the ballet...You get the picture...
Just a note to those that might consider favoring me with a reply, previous experience has necessitated the need to respectfully request the following; If you are a serial dater, eternal bachelor or you have misrepresented yourself in any way on your profile... most of you are shaving off 10 years or MORE ... "supposedly" to get in on searches (I have discovered the men are worse than the women here) posting photos from a decade ago, (Met a few of those) please do NOT message me. (At least be clever enough to change it on your profile before you contact me.) What's the point in not being truthful, this site takes a lot of TIME... eventually you will have to show up with your big belly, balding head and wrinkles if that is in fact the truth...and I have nothing against bellies, baldness or wrinkles, none of us are perfect... I just don't appreciate being 'surprised' or misled in ANY way and I am sure you feel the same way.
Now if you are still with me and you are one of the elusive and few sincere and honest men on here, here's the man I'm interested in;
My ideal man would possess 'many' of these qualities... he is a gentleman, honorable and honest...romantic...he is selective and confident but not arrogant, he's sophisticated, kind, passionate and ALPHA, please be tall, generous, worldly and well endowed. (Did I just say that? LOL) Just making sure you are paying attention.
He must be highly successful, respected and financially secure. (Extra points if you're a self made man, double points if you can make me laugh), impeccably groomed a MUST. Physical attractiveness is not as important as a brilliant mind and impeccable manners for me. (THAT is a turn on) may you be athletic, fit and health minded. I am interested in cultivating a long term committed relationship with the right partner.
One last note on age, I prefer an older man, but If you have lied about your age and you are really 60/70 something trying to attract a 20/30 something, you are NOT for me. Finally, I am flattered and really do appreciate the attention from you younger men, but please be at least 50. Thanks for taking the time to read my entire profile. You'd be surprised how many men 'wink by the pictures' and have obviously not read the profile...
Date a woman from United States. I was born and raised in New York. I moved to Los Angeles 28 years ago, where I have been living like I'm on vacation. I have been very fortunate to have made a career for myself doing what I love. I practice yoga and live by the golden rule of do unto others as you would like them to do unto you. I would love to meet someone I can laugh with. I would say my best trait is my sense of humor.
Meet a woman from California, United States. I was born on December 31st, which gives me a unique perspective on life. I've always believed in getting the most out of life, through humor, new experiences, pushing the envelope of my comfort zone, and working to create my dreams.
I'm looking for someone who is energetic, hard working, willing to treat a woman to a good time, without ALWAYS asking to split the bill, someone who loves to laugh and have fun, whether that's traveling, watching a great football game, going to Magic Mountain or just throwing a frisbee on the beach. Someone who is willing to be accountable and responsible for the choices they make in life and who has a positive, optimistic viewpoint most of the time. Even during hard times.
I love people that are who they say they are, those that mean what they say, and say what they mean. Kindness goes a long way with me - I'm kind to others and wish the same for myself. I'm a loyal friend, a good conversationalist, and a forward thinker. I believe that we create the life we have, and that if we don't like what we see, that we can always adjust our perspective.
I'm an independent spirit, so I don't handle clingy people well...but with that being said, I also love to know that there is someone special in my life - maybe you? - who is there for me, and I am there for them - and who is someone that I can rely on and trust (and of course you can do the same with me) and who just thoroughly enjoys and looks forward to the time we spend together.
Physical attraction is key too - and a lot of that attraction (not all but a lot) comes from who you are and how you see the world and if you have that twinkle in your eye? Well, you've got me :)
We respect each other, laugh together, see life through similar lenses, and really just love being alive, as corny as that sounds. I love a guy who's got some moxy, but also has an understanding and sensitivity for others. That's key.
Are you the one? C'mon be brave. Let's give it a try! Cheers!
Date someone special from United States. I'm a people-person with an adventurous entrepreneurial can do spirit - creative, think out of the box, witty, and have a good sense of humor. Grew up in small towns and moved from the Midwest to New York city to Los Angeles to London to Los Angeles. That combination gives me my Midwest integrity mixed with savvy and street smarts. I'm a positive person who sees the glass as 3/4 full.
My interests and more about me are noted below - wow - that sounds like a resume, yuck. Why be redundant and list all of that up here again. Let's keep it short, succinct and simple. I'm looking for someone with similar interests and values. If you would like to meet, share some laughs, some stories and a coffee or glass of wine, please email me.
Claimer (as opposed to disclaimer) - My age is true. My photos are recent.
Meet a woman from California, United States. I'm a Cape Town based artist and writer, I make an annual pilgrimage every year to LA to spend a few months with my daughter, I'll be in Venice till the end of August. I'm full of contradictions, but like most creatives tend to be introverted and independent. I enjoy taking risks and stretching myself physically and intellectually, I'm sometimes lazy, sometimes disciplined. I spend my days crafting sentences, at times the process is excruciating, but when my words start to sing on the page, I'm in heaven. Music plays a huge part in my life - my current writing project is a biography of legendary South African musician Syd Kitchen.
I love the fact that men and women are different. I'm drawn to the dark as well as the light....Relationships can be mysterious and magical, and I value that. I know that there's much more to life than surface, India is a place close to my heart, dreaming of exploring Tibet and Bhutan and hiking again in the Himalayas. The older I get the less answers I have for those big questions - but Buddhism makes sense to me, particulary Vipassana meditation - I've done several ten day retreats..
I don't believe in Mr Right, but Mr. Right Enough should have some of these qualites: Passionate about whatever he has chosen to do with his life, a leader in his field, or a visionary. Intelligent, compassionate, sensitive, unconventional, enjoys exercising in the outdoors, knows that material wealth rarely brings emotional security. Probably doesn't own a suit. Hates wearing a tie. Believes that men and women are equal, but different. Refuses to see things in black and white, but shades of grey, or many colours. Has no need to possess or control me. Not afraid to be a man, despite the unfortunate tendency of feminism to undermine his masculinity. Knows that the essence of sex appeal is being comfortable in your own skin..
Date a soulmate from California, United States. For starters, the arts are a big part of my life. I enjoy my work at a museum in a dynamic educational environment but I miss having a loving and committed partner to share time and experiences. NPR, the newspaper, and good coffee ease me into most mornings. I like to cook (especially California fresh) and try new recipes, watch movies, read good fiction, and listen to music. Quiet relaxation is also a treat. I enjoy cultural activities and the rich menu of theater, dance, and music in LA. I also love to try new restaurants and explore cuisines, discover new places, shop, and travel the world. I only wish there was more time! Nearly all these things are more fun when done together, especially with someone I really care about. I would describe myself as warm, playful, smart, and creative with a distinctive sense of style.
IРІР‚в„ўm Looking For:
A man who might describe himself as any or all of the following: open, curious, creative/artistic, adventurous, intelligent, fun-loving, thoughtful, sensitive (and attractive doesn't hurt!). I seek someone who values friendship, honesty, and trust, and believes in romance and love, as do I. There may be no single recipe for this—but you know it and feel it when it works.
. Hi, and thanks for taking the time to read my profile. I'm fairly outgoing, with a quick dry wit. I enjoy bantering as well as crummy puns. I am open, fun, and affectionate (love to hug, kiss, hold hands and snuggle with someone special), and perhaps most importantly, I am monogamous.
I'm usually on an even keel emotionally and appreciate that in a man also. While I do enjoy fine dining, I am basically very down to earth/unpretentious.
My interests are varied and include movies, dining out, dogs and cats, long walks, swimming, aquajogging, getaways, friends, music ranging from classical to folk to rock, just about anything but rap or big band. Anything is fun with the right company.
Please be reasonably fit and healthy, divorced or widowed, considerate of others, fun to be with; have adult kids so we can better relate, and/or enjoy kids. My 2 sons are grown and on their own with families.
Hopefully we have some similar interests (and some different of course), definitely comparable values. If you think we might be a potential match, I'd enjoy hearing from you. pet lovers are a definite plus.
Hope to talk with you soon!
. Most important to say is.....I would like to be involved with someone who wants a committed monogamous relationship. Although It takes time to know each other, I would hope that once we feel that there is something there, I would like to know that we both aren't looking further. It would be nice to spend holidays, weekends, etc. together. However, please know that I'm very independent, so if there is something you want to do with your friends, I would surely understand. Communication and honesty are a must. If you are looking for a part-time relationship, I'm not the one for you.
The profile photo was taken at the Academy Awards in 2011. All my photos are current, from 2010-2012. I'm on match.com for the same reasons you are: to find an amazing person to share my life with. I already have a great life, but having someone to enjoy it with would make it that much better.
I have a joie de vivre, am friendly, outgoing and enjoy life to the fullest. I'm lots of fun to be around and have a great extended family and friends that will welcome my partner with open arms.
If you have interest in me, please take a moment to email me, rather than wink. I've never quite understood what the purpose of the wink is. It seems if you want to communicate, words might be better and I appreciate that.
I spent years traveling with famous musicians when my ex-husband was on their road crews, so I enjoy being around creative people, especially with musical abilities (of which I have none). Of course, if you don't have musical abilities, we can both sing off key together. I also was the marketing director of a night club in Venice and a manager for a contemporary jazz singer. That experience has made me passionate for live theater and musical performances. I would love to find someone who appreciates these things,
I'd like a man who has a warm, friendly demeanor and is intelligent and open-minded. Smokers and heavy drinkers need not apply! Most of all, I want to be with someone who is fun, dependable, romantic and generous in spirit.
There's so much to explore with the right companion; however, please know that we don't have to like all of the same things. That's what our other friends are for. As long as we have a mutual attraction and genuinely like each other, that's wonderful. I'm ready to begin the discovery process with you if you think there is potential between us.
Look forward to hearing from you.
. I would like to meet someone that will give me space but who I can't live without.....there needs to be a comfort level and understanding and sense of humor...no, a sense of the ridiculous. And of course physical attraction.
