Meet a woman from California, United States. I love the summer and anything having to do with water! Blessed with a great family, friends, My Creator, employment, and so many other things. I truly enjoy the simple things in life and yet sometimes I can be complicated. = )
I like to think I can roll with the punches but prefer to avoid them all together LOL.
If you're good with YOU and can let me be ME, if you have a good sense of humor, and love to laugh at and about whatever, if you enjoy dressing down but don't mind getting dressed up, then it's very likely that we will enjoy spending time together. Oh and by the way I know we are in the 21st century but a man that opens doors, and knows how and when to be a gentlemen is still very much in style.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE post current pictures of YOU I don't like to be lied to or my time wasted. Regardless of how dazzling your personality may be my eye sight is still 20/20.
One last thing if you DO NOT have a picture please don't "favorite" me. It's creepy and I will un-favorite you. Not trying to be a jerk, but if you can't disclose what you look like and prefer to be a shadow then stick to messaging and making "shadow" girls your favorite. No one "favorites" anyone because they're attracted to their username, witty headline, interests, political views, or whether they went to college or not.
May God bless you and guide you to someone PERFECT for YOU!

Date someone special from California, United States. Would like to meet someone to go to the ocean and mountains with for skiing or camping, backpacking or hiking. Used to be a ski pro at Winter Park Resort and Vail, Colorado, partly because I spoke Spanish. Love to travel and want to do more of it someday. There is much to do right here, close to home too. Am equally comfortable in jeans and cowboy boots or a formal dress and high heels. Love to dance, with or without a partner. With a partner is better!
I would like to meet the right man to spend time with, cook and dine with, fall in love with, be best friends, wonderful lovers and adventure seekers together. Do you have a valid passport?
After reading some very descriptive profiles, I felt like mine was not up to par. There is so much more to say to a potential partner in life. How can I describe my values and goals in this public forum, not knowing who all will read it? I would prefer to show you my heart, bit by bit, over time. My match subscription is not current, so I cannot read your emails, so instead, meet me in person and slip me your business card or a note. I might subscribe next month, but generally its too time consuming...
I have a kind, loving soul. Plus, sports or dancing and physical workouts for work or play are essential for my well-being and happiness. Along with that I am a passionate person. Fiery passion brings excitement, both good and bad. So if I am pushed too far the wrong way, you will probably hear some of my wrath. Don't worry. It is short-lived. Where there is friendship, common interests and mutual respect [the most important], there is hope for a great relationship. Being able to communicate is key. Yes, I have worked on myself and processed stuff.
Please read with tongue in cheek. About Jesus... I used to think He would be the best partner in life, so instead of taking the vow of poverty and living at a convent, I went out with someone like him. The problem was that he often didn't wear shoes, never bought new clothes, didn't get a regular job and basically lived on hand-outs. His faith was so strong that he didn't plan ahead, but lived in the moment. That was fun and disconcerting. He kept throwing these big parties that I felt I had to cook for. They were enjoyable and I met many people. Often there was too much wine, not enough water. We never went skiing either, which was OK, I guess. Eventually we had to let each other go our separate ways. We are still friends, but I am over my fascination with Jesus. Beards are still good.
Places I enjoyed traveling to in the fairly recent past: Tulum, 2007, Aspen, Ireland Norway, 2010, Cadiz-Sevilla-Salamanca, SPAIN, 2011, Costa Rica, 1984(over-due for a visit) Yosemite (over-due also), Tahoe, July-2012, Harbin, 2011, Yuba River, Salmon Creek beach, Would like to go to a cozy bar with a great restaurant along the Pacific coast or in the mountains, preferably with fluffy beds upstairs and a crackling fire in the hearth, with rain drops hitting the roof. If we are happy together, any place is fine.

Meet a soulmate from United States. I love to laugh, including at myself. I enjoy the hell out of life and can't get enough of being good to the people around me. Loyalty and integrity are really important to me. I always try to find the silver lining in most of life's experiences. It makes each day just a little bit better.
I love to see my friends and family succeed in life and will do everything I can to support them. Volunteering with the elderly is a very special and fulfilling part of my life. I am down to earth, warm and approachable. I am also confident. If we communicate, have a date or I send you an email and you find that you aren't interested in me, that's really okay. Please just be straight with me. I'm a big girl. 118 pounds of big girl.
I enjoy a PPV boxing match, late night bowling, go-carts, movies, batting cage, driving range or a round of golf (haven't broken 100, but I love the game!), hiking and outdoor activities, dinner parties, comedy clubs, Sunday morning crossword puzzles and crisp linens. I'm just learning about football, maybe you can help?
I am looking for an honest man with a good heart who is quick witted and likes to wear the pants. Actually I prefer that he does wear pants… lol! A man who likes to be treated well and reciprocates. If you are old school, that works really well. And making me laugh and smile works really well too.
I have primary custody of my children (girl 12 and boy 14). They are well-adjusted, happy, incredibly funny and get along with each other. While I am a Mom, I also am a woman who knows the importance of maintaining balance. I am looking to create an incredible life with someone who values family, love, laughter, occasional chaos, occasional quiet, dogs, kids, friends, spontaneity, accountability, integrity all within a happy home.
If you are up for fun dates and a fulfilling friendship and are not afraid of the M word if the relationship becomes serious then I'm your girl. :)

Oh and for Mr. Right...IF he wants to...I am definitely open to adopting a child or whatever...even miracles!...my 8 yr old wants someone to "boss" around...LOL

Meet someone special from United States. I'm a little like lace, intricate, transparent, but not too complicated. I grew up in the midwest, lived on both coasts, traveled to five continents and still have plenty of fresh curiosity to try new things or rediscover what I once knew. I like to laugh...a lot and like to be around those who do too.
I feel very fortunate to have a rewarding and fulfilling career though maintaining balance my life is exceedingly important as well. I strive to keep my priorities harmoniously arranged in my family, personal and professional life. I pay attention to whatРІР‚в„ўs truly important with regard to my own well being as well as my contribution versus consumption as a world citizen and a friend.
I try to find beauty in all things which usually makes delight a short jump not a journey. That may in part explain how I stay so healthy sometimes it hardly seems fair. Compassion and a strong sense of fairness governs many of my life decisions big and small. I believe sincerity, cooperation and kindness are what sustains us all regardless of individual practice. So I do my best, to be my best, to all I may affect every day.
My greatest pride are my children who I raised to be good humans though they have somehow managed to exceed my high expectations. I'm fortunate to have some very good and wonderful friends whom I love a lot. They are very diverse but have one thing in common; they've never lied to me.
I'm looking for a man with a healthy outlook and a smile that can say it all from across the room. IРІР‚в„ўd love to find a soulmate who is able and interested in living every moment he's been given. He'll want to take care of woman who can take care of herself because he knows and wants to do it better. Honesty, clarity and the unshakable will to do the right thing are what matters most of all.
A bounty of brains, brawn and humor go a very long way as well.
An addendum. At the risk of sounding harsh, I've got a new hypothesis: “Winks” are for wimps and the other “w” word. Would you consider such an approach in your non-cyber life? Come on ye brave men, just throw it out there so we aren’t left to define chivalry as those who can compose a sentence or two. And those who don't even acknowledge clean, first pass e-mails are in need of a refresher course in manners.

. Im a good woman. A good friend and a great mom. I like to touch lives. I like to laugh. Im grateful for the wonderful people in my life. I am passionate about teaching. I like to ride horses and play volleyball.
I look forward to meeting new friends and going and doing.
Im looking for a family man that is spiritual, financially secure, fun, lives an active lifestyle. Values his health. Enjoys travel.

. I value honesty, passion, and deep respectful mature love. I'm seeking out a handsome prince who loves to laugh but can still be serious and strong when it's needed.... an intelligent man who can cherish the inside of a heart more than the outer shell. Someone who is trustworthy and fun, hard working yet carefree. Someone with depth to their soul. My past relationships have left me with a broader understanding of love and has taught me what it takes make a good relationship work. I believe each day in life is a precious gift and can be easily taken for granted. I want to enjoy the rest of my life to the fullest, while sharing it with someone who sets my world on fire.
Although I find internet dating still out of the realm of my comfort zone and have yet taken it very seriously, I am open to the possibility...

. Attractive, elegant, easy going and caring. Enjoy theater, movie, tennis, cycling, hiking and traveling. Look for a wonderful person to share a real life, up, down, happy, sad……He is intelligent, easy going, caring, a good communicator and ready to develop a long-term relationship.

. Professionally Im in sales/marketing, I am an actress and vocalist. Originally from the midwest ....Im easy going, humourous, sophisticated but laid back, honest, compassionate/affectionate/romantic/ and passionate. Ive been told that Im a great cook....and hostess. My life has been very diverse and as a result I can fit in just about anywhere and have a blast...whether the scenerio is formal, casual, or just me and you doing nothing at all but holding one another watching television or listening to the ocean! Bottom line, I like to laugh and have fun!!!!I would like you to be intelligent....(promise that I wont count the internet dating scene,or tell family and friends how we met...shhhh, or they'll think we're both crazy)! Creative, great sense of humor with a fantastic smile to match. Definately passionate, romantic, and employed. Alright if not employed--rich or retired is ok too! Where's that sense of humor?...smile) His race is of no consequence to me,it would be my hope that he define his race rather than it being the thing that defines him. Overall I believe I am a great catch so on that note...just how good of a fisherman are you?

. I’m a Californian original who’s fit, athletic, attractive and emotionally available. After a long term marriage and getting comfortable with myself and living alone, I’m now in search of my new best friend. I have a positive outlook on life and see the glass as half full, have an excellent sense of humor and an open heart. I’m a driven, career oriented professional who is financially secure. Looking to get to know someone who “gets me”, likes to laugh, doesn’t play games and is able to manage their baggage.
I'm a low maintenance, wash my face and go, outdoors lady who loves to hike, camp and be on the water. I'm open to new adventures and look forward to doing some traveling and seeing more of the world as time permits.
I'm hopeful that this process will be a path to make some new connections and find a man with whom I have good chemistry to share the next phase of my life with.
Take the first step and send an email if you'd like to know more about me.

. Being the best I can be each day is my main focus in life.
I promise not to tell you that I am as comfortable in jeans, as I am in a black dress. If that turns your crank, then you should stop reading and turn to the other ladies who think that's a unique opener. I think the way this Match thing works is that people open a profile based on a photo appealing to them. And while it's true that reading who someone says they are (and what they are looking for) is helpful, I believe that it's ALL about chemistry. Without chemistry, there is just no starting point and you CAN'T discern chemistry from a write-up, an email, or a phone call for that matter.
I think cyber chat is essentially a waste of time. I can learn enough about someone just trying to set up a coffee date. Do they use humor? Do they spell "a lot" as one word, or two? Are they articulate? Are they well mannered? Do they have class?
If you read the attributes I'm looking for, you'll know if it makes sense for you to write to me. So unless you can give me a compelling reason to go outside of what I am seeking, then it's best you don't try and connect with me. That means that if you're 64, or 6 foot 4 , or make $64k a year, or you don't have any books on your night table, then I'm not for you. I know I'm sounding harsh, or what some may regard as downright bitchy, but I have faith in the universe and I think that with the few things I HAVE said, a smart guy will get it. Or at least he'll be willing to investigate.
I would be remiss if I did not mention that I have an AMAZING 18 year-old son. We have a great relationship, full of laughter and warm hugs. He is wise well beyond his years and a music prodigy. It is an honor to be his mother and if kids are a reflection of their parents, then I'm a way better person than I thought.
I adore animals and foster Jack Russells in despair. The pic you see is of my dearly departed Jack, who was my constant companion. I don't think I'll ever stop missing him.
One last thing and this one is a bit touchy. When you get to my age, there are a LOT of bald guys, or guys with very little hair. Being the passionate girl that I am, physical attraction is IMPORTANT to me and unfortunately bald heads are a TURN off for me.
I eat SUPER clean. No choice but to give my brain great food to work with. I can barely remember what I did yesterday, as it is. So I need to give my brain all the help it can get. Although at times I recognize the need to be a "flexetarian."
I have the unusual combination of being a low maintenance but INTENSE girl.
While I know the difference between a Phillips and a Robertson and can split my own kindling, I also enjoy the finer comforts in life. Having said that, my greatest joy comes from SIMPLE pleasures. A cup of tea with a book, or a magazine and I'm delighted. Add in someone I love doing the same, at the other end of the sofa, and I'm in heaven.
I'm not extravagant. My jewelry amounts to an Omega Constellation watch, a platinum family crest/signet ring and a ring my son gave me when he was 6 year-old, that I've NEVER taken off. But good taste, good manners, a nice home and such, are something I am accustomed to at this stage in my life and I need a partner who is/has the same. I like someone who brings my game up, or can at least KEEP UP. I don't want to have to explain the punchline. So if you are smart and funny, I PROMISE you'll enjoy my company.
I value honesty and won't tolerate anything but around me. I'm also FIERCELY loyal, so if you've had relationships end because you've cheated (and you value your life), don't even THINK about contacting me. I can sniff a cheater a mile away.
I realize that I set my expectations high, but I can promise to match and give back all that I expect and more.
