Date women from United States / California / West Los Angeles - page 3

Date someone special from West Los Angeles, United States. I am the eternal optimist, always the positive thinker. My Dad taught me that you can make anything happen if you just try and that's been my attitude since day one; whether that means excelling in my career, working hard on something physically or academically demanding, planning a new adventure or meeting new friends; my feelings are that anything is possible. As a result, I'm a very outgoing, fun and passionate girl who enjoys family, friends, traveling and keeping busy.
I ran cross country and track in high school and college so I like to stay active, but in a moderate way to keep me in shape since I have so many other interests. I've done a few marathons and now do two or three triathlons each year for fun. Triathlon training keeps me outdoors and enjoying our amazing SoCal weather! I don't mind the gym, but I'd rather be hiking, biking, running, swimming, skiing, snowboarding or doing some sort of other activity outside.
While I enjoy being active, I also like to take it down a notch to just visit with friends and/or cook an amazing meal and drink a great bottle of wine or glass of beer over incredible conversation. On the weekends, I like to unwind with friends and hang out on the westside. I'm definitely not into the Hollywood club scene and prefer the much more mellow places/restaurants of the westside and south bay. I'm also a lover of sports especially football. In the fall, my biggest passion is USC football, we've had our ups and downs, but we keep fighting through it. I also love watching pro football. Sometimes I find myself watching whatever game is on just to enjoy the strategy of the game. If I don't favor either team, I usually root for the underdogs. Always the optimist!
I'm also a California native, originally from Newport Beach. No matter how far away I've traveled or lived, I always love coming home to the beautiful California coast.
All in all, I love my life, but I'm looking for someone I can really connect with and and learn from, a man who would love to do some of these things with me, but who also has their own interests and passions.
If you like what you've heard then go ahead send me a wink or email.

Meet a soulmate from West Los Angeles, United States. I was born in India, but raised in Northern Minnesota. I have traveled extensively and have lived in various parts of the world. I read quite a bit, so another reader might be nice but, really, I am not trying to narrow down what I am looking for too much. Everyone has something interesting to bring to the table. I would just like to meet a gentle-natured man who takes care of himself, respects his family, interacts responsibly with the opposite sex, and flosses regularly.

Date a soulmate from West Los Angeles, United States. I love food, family, friends, and travel.....hopefully family and friends will not found out that i put food before them!
I live a balanced life. I exercise daily (not always in the gym.) I am a girl comfortable in jeans and as well as in dresses…Did try to wear heels with my excise outfit…LOL
I laugh at myself often and love to make my family and friends laugh.
I am not interested in "just dating." Not into head games. I have absolutely no baggage. I am ready to give and to receive. I want someone whom is emotionally and physically available. I was born in a traditional Chinese family. I embrace my culture; yet enjoy Western civilization – freewill, passion, affection.
I love outdoor activities, but do love indoor things. Hiking, swimming, running, playing tennis, golf, dancing (salsa, Argentina tango ballroom..), , .....love travel!!! Weekend getaways!!
My ideal match would be my BEST FRIEND, lover, and playmate for life.
I am attractive to a man who has confidences, who is kind, open-minded, fun, outgoing, active, and ambitious. Someone I can trust, laugh and have fun with no matter what we do together. As far as physical attraction, I've always been drawn to someone like you whom is TALL. ;-)

Meet someone special from United States. Ocean-loving mountain girl looking for my one and only... He'll be funny, smart, thoughtful, kind, easy-going, passionate and loyal. I need a man who is people oriented, and comfortable in any situation... from playing football on the beach with my nephews, to 'suiting up' for a friends wedding. I love going to see live music too, so a little rhythm wouldn't hurt either.
Life’s about the little things… Spending time with family and friends, heading up to the mountains for a weekend of camping or skiing, laughing so hard your side hurts, a great movie, an afternoon nap (in the hammock of course!), a bottle of wine or an awesome view. I’m looking for someone who wants to share those moments. :)

Date a woman from United States. This is my second go around with Match and I'm hoping for equally fun yet more successful results.
About me: I still get seated at the kidРІР‚в„ўs table. I have a PhD in silliness. I am far more impressed by kindness and generosity than wealth or celebrity. That said though, I think Mr. Peanut is so damn dapper. I have a fantastic sense of direction. Banksy is pretty awesome in my humble opinion. I spoke fluent Spanish as a child and remember virtually none of it - which makes life in California difficult. I admire vegans but I could never give up Brazilian BBQ. I think men who are good at crossword puzzles are incredibly sexy. I'm the world's best gift wrapper. I totally understand the public's fascination with Johnny Cash. I regret not keeping my journals from my teen years. I'd like to visit Antarctica someday - hopefully while it's still frozen. I hanker to meet someone whose intellect eclipses their looks. Someone for whom philosophical discourse, creative nonsense and comfortable silence are all equally valid forms of communication. Someone independent, compassionate and other-culture/ethnicity/sexual orientation-friendly is a must.
About you: Are you tall, dark a handful? Well, if not, don't be afraid - I just need to find you smart and funny. You are able to take a ribbing and have enough mischievous spirit that you can also dole one out. You should be outgoing, well-informed and have opinions, but also be open-minded and emotionally mature. You are independent, self-confident and assertive, yet also love to be challenged and won't be embarrassed if I offer to pay the bill. You don't need to be taken care of but sometimes you'll let me do it anyway. You know how to say "Thank you," and "I'm sorry." You are at ease with your body and yourself. Your ex doesn't come up in everyday conversation. You have been told that you are romantic, nurturing and sweet or some combination of the equivalent. You do not do drugs and are just as happy ending the evening with milk and cookies as you are a cocktail. You are college educated. You enjoy intimacy in all its various forms. You can't wait to meet my part-time dogs!

Meet someone special from United States. I'm sweet and self sufficient. I love animals, especially dogs. I like to laugh and travel. Originally from the East Coast. I've lived in NYC and Tokyo before moving to LA.
Looking for someone that is kind, loyal, attractive, worldly and charismatic. Yes, I kind of want it all :) This someone must like animals, be fit, active and hopefully have a great sense of humor.

Date a soulmate from West Los Angeles, United States. If you'd like a glimpse into my world... these are some of my Facebook posts;
Life is halarious. No wonder everyone in LA is writing a script!!!

Cute but...can I walk in these?
It's nice to be loved one hundred, billion, million!
My five year old is rocking out to "Dream On" by Aerosmith. Didn't think I'd hear that atleast until she had discovered "p-o-t".
"So tired of having patience. I'd just like to be my ranting and raving self again, please."
"I have really really good bartender karma!"
"Zzyzx"

"I don't wanna get up. Is it a snow day?"
"?5 min to get the key out of my doorknob, Cheers!"
"Online ordering a new tail light that my girlfriend and I after cocktails have concluded should be no problem at all to replace :)"
"Focus on the little things. That's what will get you through the day."
"I heart my iPod. I can't hear you, world!"
"Cute Lil 22 year old Dylan from Modern Family just told me I was a gorgeous mom. Happy Mothers Day to Me!!!"
"So excited, I may kiss the UPS driver today!"
"Laughed until my stomach ached. What would I do without my girlfriends?"

Meet someone special from California, United States. What I love most about traveling are the unexpected treasures I find when I am lost. I was in Prague once wandering around by myself and no matter whom I asked for directions, all I got were grunts and pointing. To my surprise, not 5 blocks from Prague Castle, (gothic and AMAZING) I found a Starbucks. One of the people working there walked more than a block with me to show me the way back, and I have been a devoted Starbucks drinker ever since.
What I love most about being home, aside from the fantastic weather are the amazing people in my life. My friends and family are extremely important to me. Last summer I bought a purple beach cruiser and nothing makes me happier than riding with friends down the beach bike path. I love dining out and cooking at home for someone special. I love live music and movies or curling up on the coach to watch a TV or read on my iPad. I am a technology junkie avid college football fan. I can watch any football game but college Saturdays in the fall are the best.
I have always embraced where I am in life while continuing to set new goals and move forward. I am outgoing, positive, intelligent, sensitive, active, independent, warm, friendly, a retired wild-child, love animals, love learning, USC Football, cooking, a glass of wine over stimulating conversation, and travel.
What am I looking for? In short, a life partner, a lover and a friend. It would be great in one package. ;-) I think smart is sexy and the ability to laugh, not just at me but at yourself, alluring. I value independence, playfulness, and open-mindedness. If you are kind, active, enjoy good conversation, open-minded, a bit adventurous, hopefully passionate about what you do, like animals and interested in exploring the world, we may be a match. No way to know for sure unless you shoot me an email.
By the way, the age range I date is 8 years plus or minus my age and I'm not open to long distance relationships. I just started a masters program in clinical psychology in April that I love. Due to the intense study schedule, I only check in on Match once or twice a week so if you contact me it may take me a bit to get back to you.

Date a soulmate from California, United States. I am initially reserved upon first meeting, but eventually, I come out of my shell. I enjoy a broad variety of activities such as cycling, running and weight-training. Reading, writing and embroidery are some of my hobbies.
In July of 2009, I climbed Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania! It was a FABULOUS experience! :D Next time, I need a partner to come with me! Some of the photos from the climb are included here. I braided my hair for the trip. A couple of those photos are included as well. In October 2009, I completed the Long Beach Marathon one weekend and ran the Nike Women's Half Marathon the following weekend... OUCH!
In 2012, I'd like to visit China and spend New Year's Eve in Rio de Janeiro with good friends. Rio on New Year's Eve would be a blast for sure!
I enjoy doing volunteer work. Aside from the fact that it is fun and it provides an opportunity to meet new people, someone else always gets something out of it, which is great! I recently finished mentoring a high school girl for 4 years, which was fun. Right now, I volunteer regularly to record audio books at Reading for the Blind and Dyslexic in Hollywood.
My musical tastes range from Streisand to Steel Dragon to Tupac. India Arie, Prince, Seal, James Taylor, Angie Stone, John Mayer, Train and Trey Songz (=hubba hubba! :) ) are favorites, too, and as quirky as it may sound, I love Barry Manilow and Johnny Mathis, too! :) Socially, I enjoy dancing, attending theater productions and watching your basic home video.
Although I workout regularly, I am a fast-food junkie and can tell you what days any major chain has its specials and what they cost! :) I do try to keep it healthy the majority of the time, though. Most important of all, I am constantly trying to create a stronger relationship with Christ.
Although I am career-driven, my family is of the utmost importance. Life is short, so it should be lived to the fullest and with few regrets. Looking for an active, educated, open-minded male, who has a solid relationship with God. He must be a planner, be industrious and ambitious. Thoughtfulness and sensitivity are also a plus. Hopefully, he'll have a broad variety of interests and a sense of adventure!
My ideal match should have traditional values, yet not so traditional that he expects me to stay home, cook, clean and take care of kids--he should be comfortable with sharing those responsibilities. He should also be willing to support me in my career just as much as I will support him in his. At the same time, I look forward to one day being a "Ruth" to my "Boaz." :)
On a lighter side, he likes fast-food joints and "chi-chi, foo-foo" restaurants too; long talks and quiet time. Ideally, he will treat me like he would want another man to treat his mother or his sister.
While I am open to meeting and interacting with everyone -- at least initially -- I will say that for various reasons, I prefer men who have never been married and/or who have no children. I should also say that I have a strong penchant for Black men. Gotta love 'em! :D At the same time, it's the squeaky wheel that gets the grease, so whoever you are in whatever package, don't be shy! :)
Flakes, fakes and fools need not apply.

. Good things come in little packages! My friendships go back 20 years, so whether rollerblading in the park, drinks at the Viceroy or a trip to Club Med, I can pick the friend to do it with. My career affords me flexibility and independence which lets me feed my travel bug: I’ve snorkeled with sea turtles in Maui, climbed the Rock of Gibralter, and soaked up the sun in the South of France. On weekends I can be found biking at the beach, hiking at Runyan Canyon or working out at the gym. My family is my rock, and I’m fortunate to have them close enough for regular visits. My childhood was filled with gymnastics competitions and standing in as my brother’s wrestling opponent. Parents, kids and dogs love me. I still believe in the fairy tale and happily ever after.You: you notice when the tag of my shirt is out, and tuck it in for me. You appreciate the finer things in life and work hard to get them, but you know that family and friends are what matter most. You want to travel the world with me, or at least pull off some long weekends in Palm Springs or Vegas. You think my off-key renditions of Neil Diamond tunes are cute. You’re nice to the waiter. You have your own interests, but share some of them with me. Maybe you’ll take me to the ballpark and explain the nuances of the rulebook. It doesn’t really matter what we do, because we can have a blast just running errands. You see the big picture, but remember the little things. You love your life – the only thing missing is me.

. This is one of the hardest things to answer. I guess the cliche, "to know me is to love me" will not suffice. My tastes are eccletic. Here are just a few of my interests and loves: MY DAUGHTER - she is the most incredible person I know, Spending time with my friends and family, making those around me laugh, My dog Ella, skiing in Vail, dive bars, a good glass of pinot noir, the beach, peanut butter and chocolate ice cream, a good book, Maui, Cabo San Lucas, UCLA football and basketball, teaching US history, working out, playing softball, volunteering for children's charities, mentoring kids, pizza, Dave Matthews Band, walks on the beach, hiking Runyon Canyon, "I Love Lucy", David Bowie, a good hearty laugh, watching live music, seeing a play, fine dining, people with a sense of humor, getting lost in an art museum, Belvedere Vodka, sushi, the smell of freshly cut grass, staying home and renting a movie on a cold night, fireplaces, Matisse, traveling, romance, a good steak, bagels and lox on Sunday mornings, Mel Brooks Movies, Telling the loved ones in your life that you love them often, singing off key in my shower, my ipod, TiVO, Seeing a movie on a rainy day, and of course, run on sentences.
I am looking for a man to compliment me. I am very blessed with a great life, a great daughter, great family and I would love to find someone to share it all with.

. I experience everything in life as an opportunity to self-improvement and find pleasure and contentment in the simple things. I'm honest, loyal, happy and sweet person
Growing up in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil made me the independent, energetic and enthusiastic person I am today. I am a Girl from Ipanema, and like the music..when I walk by everything is more beautiful because of love..and it's good to be a little bit silly!
Also, IРІР‚в„ўm an American citizen...I have dual citizenship and love both countries!
I enjoy going to concerts, sporting events, movies, trying new restaurants and having fun.
I find myself in a stage in my life where I'm proud of myself and I feel very comfortable with who I am. I like to wear jeans and t-shirt but I also like to dress it up on occasion.
I like sports and being active so I want to find someone that also likes that but it's not obsessed about it.
My pictures are recent. Do not contact me if you don't have your picture posted.
I would love to find a good-hearted, healthy man who I could share the same values of loyalty, honesty and friendship I value in a relationship. Someone who is looking for a long, exclusive and vibrant relationship.
I suppose that sounds quite cliche, but it would be nice to meet someone who is passionate about life and believes in amazing mental and physical chemistry.
Just a kiss in the moonight..
