Date women from United States / California, 55 year old

Date someone special from California, United States. I currently live in Rancho Mirage, but am very interested in moving to OC... Dana Point, San Clememte, SJC, Newport Beach area. I have lived here in the desert for over 10 years now. I love it here, but would consider moving back to Orange County, Los Angeles or San Diego area. I do miss the beach!
I work as a surgical nurse here in the desert, but would be able to work anywhere if I choose.
I have a daughter who lives in Orange County (Long Beach). I visit her and my family quite frequently. Family and friends are very important to me.
I have been on this site before, and have met someone really great guys, so I thought I would give it another try.
My life is uncomplicated (no drama to speak of) so I am looking for a man to complement my life... not complicate it.
I enjoy being in a relationship and I give 100% to the person I am with.
I am not one to sit around the house. I like to go out to dinner and to the movies. I enjoy dancing and listening to live music. I love music concerts ... Coachella was great!
I work out during the week...dance classes, yoga, spin etc. I try to stay in shape and I hope you do too!!
I guess I am looking for the one man that makes my heart race every time I hear his voice... CHEMISTRY and a great sense of humor are very important to me. I am sensual and passionate looking for someone like-minded. I think the rest just falls into place!!!
I think I am adventuresome and would try anything once!!!
Thank you for taking the time to read my profile. Good luck to everyone!!
All my pictures are within the last couple years. The ones in Hawaii and the black dress by the xmas tree are the most current.

I am a very honest and open person and expect the man I'm with to be the same. I love adventures like getting lost and finding interesting little towns, ziplining, and roller coasters.
Traveling is one of my passions whether it's a weekend trip to Vegas or a week long cruise to tropical places. I enjoy doing physical activities such as walking, swimming, kayaking, and snorkeling.

Someone adventureous, skydiving? I haven't tried that yet....I'm not so much into sitting around drinking wine prefer a shot of tequila or maybe a bloody mary! ...Gotta love dogs.

I love concerts, good old rock and roll, tribute bands are great, and of course, so is the real thing!
Hope to hear from you. Any questions you might have, just ask! :)

. My friends would tell you I'm very attractive, intelligent and challenging at times. One of the most mysterious case I came across as a journalist quite a while ago was a mysterious death of a very intelligent man. It involves cross-cultural relationship and several very lucrative biotech patents and infidelity. The cause of death was never determined. ... Bonus if you can write this story.
ABOUT ME
The perpetual issue of that infamous half glass of water - why does it have to be "half full" or "half empty"? Can we take it as what it is - without opinion, illusion, or wishful thinking. Maybe our perpetual quest for the meaning of life make us complex and at times sad. (OK, just to test if you are still reading. Hope you are laughing now.).
NO, i'm not sentimental. I'm very playful, sometimes act like a clown for the friends around me when I put my mind to it, but don't think you would mind. I used to work in San Jose as journalist for a long time before returning to Asia in 1995. It was a boom time for telecom industry. I worked for a well known telecom companies there as executive at a time female executives were rare. (Almost became a geek.) Returned to US in 2002, only to Southern Cal. At the moment I've taken up a new job in a small company.
ENOUGH CV. If you know the job of a strategist you know a small part about me. Best feature? ...ummm, can't tell you here. Things I can't tell on the first date? ....DEFINITELY cant' tell you here. BTW, taught "Simultaneous Interpretation" - much more difficult than taking ballet - in a very prestigious university in Asia during my stay there. Also did couple sessions for the President of the country amid a missile crises. Ask me if you want to know what this is.
(Should STOP BLUSHING!)
If I blush and want to run away when you meet me, you already know I like you more than I should. I don't take picture much of myself since I don't believe a 2-dimensional image would reflect the complex appearance of a natural person, but I'm very willing to be conventional this time.
There's no particular "kind" of people I'm looking for. It's difficult to ask too much from anybody, so it'd be good to start from just being friends and see what happens. I don't believe any one would fall into a particular type of personality or traits, so we can all just be our own natural selves. If I blush when we meet, you know I already like you too much.

. I have a great life both personally and professionally. I'm a mortgage banking attorney with a very successful practice and a very good reputation and I frequently lecture to law schools and bar associations. I enjoy mentoring young women attorneys. I have wonderful friends and I enjoy cooking elaborate dinners for them pared with wines that compliment the courses. I love to travel, especially to Israel and Europe. I work out regularly on a treadmill and with weights and also with a kickboxing trainer. I love to go to the movies and theater, comedy clubs, rock concerts and classical music concerts, especially piano music. I have cockatoos and macaws at home who speak English with my Philadelphia accent and a little Spanish. They are very beautiful and I love taking one or two of them down to Main Beach in Laguna. They love the attention and being admired and I love being anywhere in Laguna Beach.
I am very fortunate to be extremely healthy and in great shape. Most people think that I am in my late 40's. My friends would describe me as easy going, very upbeat. and a lot of fun. To relax, I love to read novels by Patricia Cornwell, Daniel Silva, Jeffrey Deaver, Jonathan Kellerman and Michael Connelly. I am looking for a partner with whom to share a great life! Ideally, he will be self-confident, fit, with a good sense of humor and happy with his personal and professional life. Someone who would enjoy spending getaway weekends in Santa Barbara, San Diego or Catalina. Someone committed to a job or profession but willing to take the time to develop a relationship.
I belong to a Temple in Newport Beach but I do not attend regularly. However, being Jewish is very important to me. I am looking for someone who is culturally Jewish even if they are not religious.

. Thank you for stopping by my little drama free corner!
Encouraged by family and friends to redefine my non work life and journey of fun. Sure there are challenges, but when one is ready just live it and love it deep in your soul
Seeking the most drama free man as possible, which means please no, to contacting me if you have not been at least 4 months out of being separated, divorced or widowed (sorry for your loss) as you need to find your inner peace. I bring zero baggage and hope you will too. I truly do not want to hear what did not work for you in any relationships, but where your life is taking you now with humor and laughter!
My free time is diverse as I own my business in the non tradional sense of occupational therapy, which means I am the best listerner and doer, so I have learned to leave it where it needs to be when I am off work. I enjoy walks, live plays/musicals, comedy shows, fun dinner sites, Bar B Qs with friends and family, sportng events, yes Football and baseball fan, drives up the coast, walking my pug, swimming, shooting on a range, fishing lake or sea to a night out in the entertainment world due to the business. It is not a deal breaker if you are not comfortable attending high end events, as in most cases, I too would love to just be at home with exceptional music being close with that right man!
I have been divorced over 7 years, no need to discuss it, as I wish him nothing but the best! I am an independent and self assured woman, I find it scares some men, so I need someone sure of himself but not stuck on himself, so over that! CHEERS!

. Coming from Colombia, I've had traveled in my life for so long that it's become second nature. I've been all over, from Barbados, Aruba, Italy and Spain to France, the U.K., and all over South America. I'm a free spirit and don't sweat the small stuff because I know there are so many more things in this world for us to see and experience together. Though I value my family and love to keep in touch with them, I've already raised my children and am seeking a fulfilling relationship with the right man. I give freely of myself, am generous to a fault and considerate of others. I have a sense of compassion when it comes to people and animals. With a great sense of humor, I feel I can laugh at my mistakes and move on, but I never laugh at others.
In a man, I want someone who is stable and respectful of our relationship. Faithfulness comes in hand with being trustworthy, and those are two aspects that I value in myself and in my partner. This man must be patient and kind, but also sweet and has to be able to enjoy my playfulness. I want someone who will return my affection and love. We should share similar interests and be able to depend on each other. Physically, I'm looking for someone with height, who is strong enough to twirl me around as we dance through this life together.

. IРІР‚в„ўm a playful, outgoing woman with a free spirit and a positive outlook who likes cooking, dancing, scuba diving, traveling, and spending time with friends. DonРІР‚в„ўt see any of your favorites on this list? DonРІР‚в„ўt worry. What I do is less important to me than who IРІР‚в„ўm with.
If I had to choose just a few words to describe myself, IРІР‚в„ўd pick happy, friendly, adventurous, and open minded. I have two children, now 20 and 21, who live on their own in Texas. I have many interests and skills gleaned from a curious mind and a willingness to try new things.
I was born and raised in Houston, Texas. Some people guess that I am from New York City. Not sure why, but I don't seem to have a Texas accent. But I can turn it on if you ask nicely. :)
My pictures were taken July 13, 2012. I wear a size 8. I have zero baggage and live a healthy holistic lifestyle. That explains why my doctor said I have the blood work and EKG results of an 18 year old.
I want to meet you if you want a long-term committed monogamous relationship. Because I want a rest of our life kind of romance and hope that you do, too.
I am holding out hope that my ideal partner is reading this now and is brave enough to email me and start the conversation.
If you are a new-age man who is young at heart, mentally and physically fit and healthy, and ready to date an interesting and one-of-a-kind woman with style and grace who knows how to give a man space AND make him feel like a king, then let's talk.
I don't care what you have or what you make as much as I care about what you are made of and what you stand for.
And that is why I ask that you Please be a paying member of match.com and have at least four current pictures, one of which shows full body. Hey, that's just honest.
I want to live in California. So far I am most interested in staying in the Bay area but I am open to living in other areas of California. So even if you don't live in California now, please be willing to relocate here.
P.S. Drinking a glass of wine, champagne, or a mixed drink now and then, as in rarely, is fine with me. I just don't want to date you if you drink daily or drink alcohol to feel comfortable in social situations.
