Date men and women from United States / Alabama / Auburn, 53 year old

Date men and women from Auburn, United States. Describing myself is never easy. I am trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly (albeit shy), courteous, and kind. Yes, I was a boy scout in my youth. I was raised in rural Alabama on a hog farm. No, I was the son of the farmer, not a member of the livestock. From there I took the next logical step by going to college and earning a masters degree in electrical engineering. I worked as a computer and network engineer for Auburn University for 25 years, but retired in 2010 to start my own business. I have a dry/wry sense of humor.
One of the great things about my professional skills is that I can ply my trade in any industrialized country in the world (and even in my home state). Granted the language barrier would be an early hurdle. My German vocabulary is currently not much more than 100 words and my Greek probably no more that 20. Ah, but my Spanish! It’s not good yet, but I am learning. I am very involved in the Olympic sport of Weightlifting (not to be confused with powerlifting or bodybuilding). I am a certified coach (my friends will gladly attest to the fact that I am certifiable), a Category One international referee, and I help run competitions.
One of the great things about being involved in masters (35 and older) weightlifting, besides the people I meet, is that it is a great excuse to visit other parts of the country and world. In the past few years I have been to Scotland, Canada, Greece, Australia, El Salvador, Austria, the Dominican Republic, France, Hungary, and Puerto Rico. I usually tour with friends after the competitions. In 2008 I revisited Greece. In 2009 was Venezuela and a return trip to Australia. 2010 was Canada (Montreal) again and Poland. 2011 was Germany and Cyprus. 2012 will be the Ukraine and a return trip to the Dominican Republic.
She should have:
A) A GOOD SOLID HEAD. Not in physical sense. Intelligence is very attractive and major league sexy. This way she will appreciate my sense of humor and fire right back at me. OK, at least tolerate it.
B) FAMILY APPRECIATION. By this I mean appreciating the value of one’s family, being there when they are in need, and if the situation is right starting one of our own. My only immediate family is a sister and two wonderful nieces (ages 18 and 23) in Atlanta.
C) PHYSICAL ATTRACTIVENESS. This is much harder to define. Curvy and buxom is absolutely wonderful. Lean and athletic is great too. And yet these are typically two completely different body types. Beauty is like very fine art. I just know it when I see it. Taking the time and effort to keep oneself healthy only adds to the beauty, and in more than just the physical sense.
D) ENERGY. The desire and willingness to go out and share various events, activities, and experiences together is so very important and can be a great deal of fun. (I would love to take that special gal with me to see places like the Acropolis, The Outback, Rome, etc.)
E) LOVE AND DEVOTION. This is a two way street and the foundation for a wonderful and lifelong companionship (which is exactly what I seek).
And no, Dilbert did not write this for me!! These qualities are neither complete, in any particular order, nor can they really describe something whose essence is so subjective and from the heart.
If at this point you have not screamed in horror, called the cops, blocked my profile, but are still reading this, then perhaps there is hope for me yet!
NOTE: The pics aren’t very good, but that may have more to do with the subject than the camera or photographer. I’m just glad the camera withstood the strain.

Date single man from Auburn, United States. I'm a former sports writer/photographer, life insurance salesman and taxi cab driver who is looking for a change. Currently, I'm basically unemployed and on disability, but I'm looking for employment in the fields that I have described above. Hopefully, something will come up for me because I'm tired of not working. I've worked all my life until 2005 when I developed an illness that put me down for five years. I've recovered and now I want go get back to feeling my life again. My ex-wife works two jobs from her home with telephone jobs, but I don't think I can do that type of work. I'm looking for some type of outside sales position or maybe some type of driving job. Another sports job would make sense also. But right now, I'm open for suggestions when it comes to employment.

Date people from Alabama, United States. I am a Southern Belle with a twist. My friends describe me as outgoing, fun and independent. I am a happy confident person and comfortable in many settings. Exercising, traveling, any activity with friends or just sitting in front of the fire with a glass of wine makes me happy. I am straight up and will tell you if I do or do not like things. I do not want to play games.
Up to this point I have not been open to dating but now have decided it is the right time.
I was married for 27 years and divorced 2 years ago, relocated, bought my home and went to work. LOVE my job!!! Financially secure.
My children and I are very close. They are amazing, self supporting and very independent. I loved everything about rearing children, watching them learn about life and how to not make the same mistake twice:).The oldest lives 2 hours away and the other a few states away. Enouraging my family and friends to become all they can is a gift I have been told I have.
I would like to meet someone that has similiar interests, good family values and a great attitude..... Someone that embraces life, is hard working, active, honest and thoughtful. I will treat you with respect and expect the same from you. I love very deeply and completely.
I am uncomfortable connecting with people I do not know and will be cautious about who I meet. Meeting for coffee would be a good way to meet initially. I would like to meet someone ready to embrace life and all it offers. Are you interested?

BLUE EYED BLONDE, SEEKING HONEST FUN LOVING MAN. ONE WHO CAN STAND OWN HIS OWN.I BELIEVE FRIENDSHIP IS A MUST. I LIKE TO PLANS THINGS BUT ENJOY BEING SPONTANEOUS AS WELL .. GUYS PLEASE POST PICTURES,WITH YOUR PROFILE..

Date a soulmate from Alabama, United States. If I’m not watching a volleyball tournament or Auburn football game or chasing that little white ball around the course (or more frequently the rough), you might find me digging in the dirt (I love to work in the yard) or working on small home remodeling projects. I’m by no means a pro, but I enjoy learning new skills. I’m just as comfortable with a drill, hammer and paint brush as I am with a frilly apron, cooking favorite recipes and entertaining a houseful of family and friends. These connections are important to me. Life is short – you need to laugh and enjoy those close to you. I can put on my faded jeans and rummage thru antique shops, laughing at memories that pop up from childhood. OK – come on! I’m not THAT old, but they do sell some stuff that's not antiques!! Or sometimes, that little black dress beckons me for a night out on the town for dinner and dancing. I’d love to learn to ballroom dance – how about it? I know I’d be laughing at myself, can you?
It only takes a second and my suitcase is packed for that spur of the moment road trip. I always enjoy climbing into the car, with picnic packed, and head towards (pick any city)…no hotel reservations, no time frame, no plans. Just stopping to explore anything and everything on the way – whatever looks interesting. You never know what adventure you’ll find when you’re not on a schedule!
I believe in old fashioned southern values – chivalry is not dead! So even if I can swing a hammer and use a drill, it’s still important that a man treats me like a lady, opening doors for me and pulling out my chair. Respect and honesty, both to yourself and others close to you, is important. I have a positive attitude towards life, work hard to achieve what I have, and try to enjoy life to the fullest. There’s still so much in this big world that I want to learn and explore. How about it? Does this sound good to you?

Meet a woman from Alabama, United States. Active. Graceful. Focused. Knowledgeable. Inquiring mind. Unique. Everything someone has experienced in life has contributed to who they are today. If you like that person, then how can you have regrets? If you don't like that person: change. I am one of the fortunate few who love their calling and happen to get paid for it. While I enjoy the work I do, the people I meet through work, and the coworkers/employees that it is my pleasure to know, inherent is a requirement for erratic hours/days/weeks. This is a good thing. It might seem counterintuitive, but I get substantial time off when others are working their 40 hour weeks. I am financially, emotionally, and physically independent; would expect the same in a friend/partner. Prefer compelling over attractive. Looking for a face with character that has seen the world and survived; someone who moves with grace, purpose, and athleticism; always at home in their own body. Meeting a friend/partner involves chemistry, rapport, and understanding with a little kismet thrown in for good measure. Choices have consequences. Free-will vs. predetermination. Fate? Why did a particular person cross your path? Why at that time in your life? Or at that time in their life?

Meet a soulmate from Alabama, United States. No crazy “ex”, or children; gainfully (and happily) employed; don’t live with Mom; and even own a car! No pierced parts, or tattoos. As an added bonus -- all baggage fits underneath the seat in front of me.
My time to help raise young children has past, but do not mind someone having older children.
Honesty and integrity are high on my list of must-haves in a partner. I know from experience a successful relationship takes the effort of both people and willingly to accept the challenge with the right person. My job calls for planned travel, but with a schedule flexible enough for getaways on a regular basis. With a romantic partner, physical attraction is a great place to start, but I do look forward to more. My recipe for the perfect relationship includes equal parts, respect, affection, laughter, passion and playfulness.
It’s the simple pleasures I look for in a relationship: Great conversation that is intelligent, witty and even slightly sarcastic; “us” time; working together; a smile that comes from that unexpected call.
When needed, taking charge does not bother me, but I find greater satisfaction in mutual decisions. Ideally, we will take turns leading and embrace walking alongside each other while growing together.

Things to ponder…”Online now” can mean just that. But according to the FAQ’s it can also mean the person is offline, but active within the last hour. So what was “Active within the last hour” really mean? And...just logging into the email account corresponding with this venue will prompt "Online Now", even if not in "Match."
