Date men and women from United States / California / West Los Angeles, 49 year old

Date men and women from California, United States. I am pretty quiet at first and then open up and make you laugh. I am a mix of athletic and nerd. I live a pretty healthy lifestyle, but am not a fanatic about it, just thankful for good genes and good health.
I love anything outdoors and really enjoy renting a cabin for a few days in Big Bear now and then. I am not a great cook, but I've been told I am a very appreciative recipient of good cooking!
It would be nice to find someone that thinks being loyal is hot!
FYI: I don't respond to profiles without pictures, I mean seriously? I showed you mine, now show me yours....you know how to play...

Meet a soulmate from California, United States. About me: I am looking for someone who has passion, intelligence and a sense of humor. I love to crack little jokes and I love to laugh. I have a good awareness of myself and consider myself a very compassionate person. I am not someone who likes to sit around the house and watch TV, although I do enjoy a good film on the couch. I like to stay physically active for entertainment – I play beach volleyball year round and love to go for long rides on the bike path along the ocean – I have been known to bike from Santa Monica to Palos Verdes on occasion. I enjoy working out daily and ocean swimming in the morning during the summer months. Music is another passion of mine (since I was about 6 years old) and love to check out and discover new live music and concerts at the Hollywood Bowl and The Greek Theatre, among other venues. I have had a lifelong love affair with film and I am a film professional. I traveled extensively in my youth and still have a huge yearning to travel to places I have never been and spots that are off the beaten path. Having lived on both coasts extensively, I now love my job and my life on the Westside – but something is sorely missing – a woman that I connect with so deeply that we can finish each others thoughts. I hope that you will be that woman.
About you: Likes to stay physically active, enjoys a good laugh and is not afraid to speak her mind and discuss the issues of the day or politics. Someone who is beyond the games – if you like me, say so and I will do the same. Looking for someone who likes to live a healthy lifestyle and treats her body like the temple it is. Likes to go out for dinner, go see concerts, films, sporting events or go for a hike in the mountains. Contemplative, yet spontaneous and compassionate towards others. The ideal mate for me would like to travel to a different destination every year – maybe one year go to some secluded beach and explore and then the next be willing to go somewhere that maybe is not as comfortable but has extremely interesting historical significance.
Bottom line is I am interested in finding someone who wants to discover the world with me and not settle for the status quo. My motto as I state in my headline – LIFE IS SHORT. LOVE BIG, TAKE RISKS AND LAUGH OFTEN. I look forward to meeting you – whoever you are!

Date men and women from California, United States. Ok, not really good at this, but I’ll give it a try…
Me: IРІР‚в„ўm pretty easy going, confident, hard working, smart, good friend, love kids, nature, neat, romantic, passionate, educated, creative, independent, a good listener, family oriented, fun/loving, playful & a person with a good sense of humor who doesnРІР‚в„ўt mind laughing at her own expense once in a while. Very feminine, not afraid of showing my vulnerability, yet IРІР‚в„ўm strong in myself. Could be a total tomboy when playing sports (but don't like to wear my cap backwards) I like nothing better than to see people smile & laugh; I enjoy a good laugh, but can be serious when needed. IРІР‚в„ўm morally & financially responsible, I eat right & work out regularly to stay in shape, physically & mentally. IРІР‚в„ўm thankful for many things in my life, enjoy my work (Real Estate/16 years). Did I mention humble & modest?
What I like: Some of my favorite things to do include anything outdoors, eating out occasionally, live music/comedy shows, going to movies, but I definitely enjoy the most staying at home, ordering take out or cooking a nice meal, music in the background or just watching a movie & popcorn.
Love dogs & most domesticated animals. Afraid of snakes, rats, raccoons & reptile pets, if you share your life with any one of those exotic pets, please do not contact me
Never afraid to speak my mind & let my feelings known, because IРІР‚в„ўm not very good at guessing, I'm honest & truthful to a fault & expect the same from my partner (a hand shake is all that is needed from me to assure that I will do what I promise) When you meet me for the first time, what you see is what you get, you may like me or you may not. IРІР‚в„ўm not every oneРІР‚в„ўs cup of tea. Not looking for someone to make me happy. I have a good time wherever I am and try to keep a positive attitude. Life it's full of complications, but sometimes we have to slow down for a bit, go for a walk & smell the roses. Life is short & precious not to enjoy it to the max. It is up to us to make the best of it. I treat people the way I want to be treated with respect, kindness and care. I'm not perfect & I don't expect you to be perfect either. In fact perfect does not exist
Relationships need constant work & attention in order to grow. I have learned the hard ways that love is about accepting people, for who they are, not who we want them to be. I can't define the ideal relationship, but it must be associated w/mutual satisfaction, attraction, respect & chemistry as well as good communication & learning from each other
You: I’m not sure what you would look like & I really hate to categorize this or make it sound like some sort of shopping list, but here are a few traits; A men who’s got a sense of humor has an easy smile, young at heart, creative, who makes me laugh until my sides hurt, who is intelligent, mature, avoids premature judgments, well grounded with strong personal & family values, honest, romantic, sexy when needed, emotionally available, adventurous & spontaneous. Someone who wants to build a solid relationship based on open & honest direct communication where we tell each other anything & everything. Even the hard things (specially the hard things) someone independent, reliable & open minded, he should be a man who makes me want to smile when I think of him, see him or talk to him & see life as a glass more than half full. For the most part, I’m looking for a comfortable person to spend time with, starting w/a friendship & building to “who knows what” & must enjoy long passionate kisses! It’s a tall order!
Does this sound like you? I hope so… I look forward to meeting you very soon!
Thank you for reading, wish you the very best luck!
