Date men and women from United States / Alaska / Juneau, 44 year old

Date a man from Juneau, United States. I'm looking for new friends, and maybe more in the future. I have three little girls that live with me part time. I greatly enjoy the outdoors, fishing, boating, camping, sailing. But, I also like staying inside on bad days and experiment with new recipes.

Meet a soulmate from Juneau, United States. Imagine a young man who grew up with six older sisters, a man who is sensitive, kind, a peacemaker, a lover not a fighter, a man who understands women and knows how to treat them. Imagine a man who enjoys cleaning the kitchen, changing diapers, taking long walks and holding hands, picking wild flowers, and writing poetry. Is there such a man? You will find such a man in me.
I am a bit shy and reserved, some even say introverted, but I also have a wild side. I love spontaneity, dancing, singing Karaoke, and great stimulating conversations. I am looking for someone who wants to be loved unconditionally, is committed to a marriage for life, and enjoys intimacy. While good looks, chemistry, and physical attraction are important to me, I'm also looking for a woman whose inner beauty far outweighs the physical; see Proverbs 31.
I have lived in Minnesota, California, Russia, and Alaska. I love to travel, enjoy life to the fullest, and enjoy my family and friends company. I love my job as a middle school math, science, and technology teacher because I love working with kids. I also love music: singing, making, dancing to, and listening. I am passionate about three things: The Minnesota Vikings, Science Fiction, and anything Disney. My priorities in life are God, family, friends, then job.
If this sounds appealing to you, then ask yourself, am I the one?

Date men and women from Juneau, United States. My sincerity makes me a person hard to be found nowadays, I say what I think. I am opened and frank with people, I know that it makes things easier and clearer. I am a genuine man with classical beliefs and family values. Some would say I am conservative when it comes to treating people the way you want to be treated, to honesty and respectfulness, so it is up to you to decide if these values are also appreciated by you.I know they are! My nature is easy going and communicative. I am the person easy to deal with. I like to express positive emotions and smile, still if negative things arise I always find the way to neutralize them, it is possible, just use your flexible mind! I know that every person in this world deserves respect and wants to be admired, and I tolerate humans weak sides- we are not perfect, it is true!My values in life are as simple as important- family, love to close people, health, help to those who need it, self respect and decent living.

I strive to be the best person I can be. I look for the best in others and I find I like most everyone I meet.
I am very healthy. I try to eat healthy, exercise, and keep a positive attitude to stay that way.
I am a bit reserved when first meeting someone. I enjoy getting to know others and listening to their stories.
The perfect match for me would be someone I have that mysterious chemistry with, someone that I can’t stop thinking about and I can’t wait to be with. I think having a few things in common helps too.

Date a man from Alaska, United States. I love SE Alaska and life in general. But I also feel it's important to share what I have, and who I am. At the same time, I appreciate independence, competency, respect, and a self-assured nature in all my friends.

Meet men and women from Alaska, United States. I don't really have an ideal match. I've dated lots of different kinds of guys- different ethnicities, body types, professions, etc..I have found it easy to fall for someone as I get to know him, rather than just going after guys I find physically attractive.
I am looking for someone that is okay with my family, but does not expect to be a part of it right away. The person would want to get to know me, find a reason to want to keep me around, and go from there.
I've been described as smart and energetic. I am analytic and exceedingly playful. My job keeps me busy Sept-May, so there are limitations on how deeply I can get involved in romance at that time, but in the summer months, I am all ears and wide open for adventure.

Date a soulmate from Alaska, United States. I am opening a new chapter to my life, children are now adults and I am newly independent, I am taking each day anew.

Meet someone special from Alaska, United States. I would love to meet a man who is willing to be both strong and vulnerable in a relationship....someone who can turn me on with his words as much as his touch. Eventually, I want to find a man who isn't afraid to love with his whole heart.
I moved from Kalispell, Montana to Metlakatla, Alaska last fall and my children did not. I find myself at a loss without them. Being a mother was...IS....a huge part of my identity. But now I have these great big teenage kids who live in an entirely different state and it leaves a giant hole in my life..
I'm naturally very nurturing and need someone in my life to "baby." Just as important...after taking care of so many others for so long, I would also love to meet someone who is strong enough, sensitive enough and confident enough to take care of me for a while.
I recently finished a PhD in Clinical Psychology. I love this work even though it can be very painful. Part of the appeal of moving to Alaska was to be able to function as a doctor without the artificial distance of the title. I am a doctor, but, to me, being a doctor means that Ihave a level of knowledge and experience that brings me closer to people. It doesnt create distance or set me apart from people. I'm a Blue Jean Psychologist.
I located myself in Juneau for match.com even though I actually live much further south. My first reason for during this is because its a very bad idea for me to date anyone on my island. I simply won't do it. I have a very public position on a very small island. It would be nearly impossible for me to date someone without somehow having that dating relationship affect my clients. My second reason, is that I won't be there for more than a year or two. I'm enjoying my time in Metlakatla but I can't call it home. I don't know where home IS yet. I loved the northwest corner of Montana but I'm not sure where I will eventually land. Home could truly end up being anywhere. I'm getting great experience in Alaska. I like it here and I believe I may end up in Juneau or Anchorage. Time will tell.
I cannot live with hatred, ignorance and intolerance. My personal paradox: The only thing I truly hate is hate. The only thing I cannot tolerate is intolerance.
So, now that I've made myself seem very intense and sober, I should say I'm actually very down-to-earth and fun. I don't think I'm the typicaly doctor-type....if there is such a thing. I will laugh and play and get dirty with you before you'll ever know there's an intellectual type hiding inside of me.
I love nature....the mountains frequently beckon. love midnight walks on the beach, especially under a clear sky with stars and moon bright overhead. I would enjoy spending time with someone who likes to hike, to explore. I would also be very happy to spend quiet evenings wrapped up in each other. I want someone who can share the adventure and the intimacy: a playmate, a friend and a lover.

Date a woman from United States. I'm kind of poking around in here right now because I'm not sold on the idea of "online dating." Is this really an area of my life I want to subject to technology? A friend of mine encouraged me to do this, but I do it somewhat reluctantly and haven't ponied up for subscribing as yet.
Anyway, I'm looking for a good guy -- someone who is intelligent, dependable, and courteous with a sense of humor (bad boys move along). Looking for something REAL with someone that wants to take things SLOW -- to find someone I can be equally comfortable chatting with or sharing a quiet moment. Though I am always attracted to the "class clown" type, the quieter type with a dry sense of humor gets my attention as well. I prefer brains over beauty, wit over slapstick, substance over image, and confidence over bravado. I don't necessarily have a "type" and am not looking for someone to fit into a cookie cutter image of what I think a man should be. Physically I like all types that contain strong character, kindness, and humor. Some of my big celebrity crushes include Kevin Spacey, John Goodman, Hugh Laurie, Mike Holmes, and Masaharu Morimoto.
Me? Well, I've been gainfully employed since hgh school and am extremely independent. I enjoy dancing (especially Salsa), cooking, walking, and working. I have a beautiful grown son that is my pride and joy working on his master's out of state. I am a warm, down-to-earth, glass-half-full type. I can be a bit reserved -- even somewhat aloof -- when out of my comfort zone (which makes dating a w k w a r d). I am a people pleaser but no one's door matt. I'm open minded and enjoy CONVERSATION. I LOVE to laugh.

Meet people from United States. I would like to find someone to enhance my life and to share things with, but I'm not a big fan of the drama that seems to goes along with dating, I think when you meet the right person it should be fun and easy, and the relationship should progress naturally whether you end up together or just friends. I'm not interested in trying to be someone I'm not, and would like to meet someone else who is open, real, easy going, active, fun, honest and kind. Am I asking too much? I think not!
As for me, I am a very caring, giving person. I'm upbeat amd strive to be optimistic about life in general and look for the good in people. I like to be active and be outdoors. I am always a mom first, love my two boys. Im a good cook. I love dogs and like cats ok. I am an artist and have a very creative mind. I have been told I see the world differently then most people, and I think they meant that in a positive way?
Send me a message if you would like to know more, and good luck to you on here ;)
