Date men and women from United States / Arizona, 48 year old - page 3

Date men and women from Arizona, United States. I'm a hard working successful fit guy looking for a companion. I enjoy golf, reading and having fun no matter what the situation. I stay fit for my age and find it harder and harder to do with each passing year. I enjoy fine dining and also grilling burgers on the BBQ. Family is important to me and so are having some true friends in your life.

Meet a soulmate from Arizona, United States. I take pleasure in working to stay fit, the outdoors and watching my kids have a good time. I try not to shy away from challenges whether they are related to household projects, expanding my professional repertoire or trying to be a better human being. I’m not always successful at any of these (I have to call in occasional help to �unbreak’ something, I’ll never be the CEO and I’m far from perfect), but I keep trying and like to think on the average I’m a little better everyday than I was the day before.
I enjoy simple pleasures. I don't have many hobbies, but like to work with wood, fix stuff (or at least not make it worse) and help other people with whatever they need (from fixing plumbing to helping carry furniture up the stairs). I like to laugh and look for a woman who can laugh as well. I'd like to think I have a good sense of humor, but my children (13 and 16) don't always think I'm as funny as I do.
Things I’d like to be better at: I’d like to be more patient. I can’t make myself dance. I can’t seem to get hands, hips and/or feet moving all at the same time to the same rhythm and IF that were to happen, that tempo would have nothing to do with the music. I’m dance phobic, but with the correct tutelage…. Who knows?
Some humor. I’ve managed to visit the ER 3 years running. For a damaged rotator cuff incurred from fracturing my shoulder while playing whiffle ball with my son’s baseball team… yes whiffle ball. I managed to shoot myself in the thumb with a brad nailer. Got Impetigo. I didn’t even know it existed. Of course the embolism was unavoidable. Despite all that I do have all of my factory original equipment, a dusting of grey hair (all earned) and laugh lines. That’s what I call those creases on my face. ;-)
If you are an intelligent woman who takes care of her body, enjoys a good laugh and wants a respectful man who will treat her well and who has all of his teeth and good hygiene, then drop me an email.

Date people from Arizona, United States. I am a true optimist-yet realist. I like to stay focused on all the positives things in life, and tackle obstacles as they come, only becoming stronger along the way. I am talkative and easygoing, and like having lots of people around. I love traveling and meeting new and different types of people. I strive to continue personal growth as those with narrow minds or are cynical about everything don't get it and never will.
I'm an extrovert. I enjoy communicating; and understanding other peoples views, perceptions, and beliefs about things of importance.Not a big fan of gossip or topics that aren't substantative. Although I do love joking around and lightening things up
often; especially on weekends....
I am on here for additional exposure since time flies by. I find that for a relationship i'm in to be succcessful I have to respect, enjoy, and be intrigued by the other person. It is something that I intutively feel, as opposed to something I need to put any real thought into.
I love the desert and the climate here. Originally from the North East I have found that I like the West best.
Obviously, attraction has to be there first. More importantly though, it is intellect, kindness, coupled with a fun personality that I believe wins me over for anything that is meaningful. Being able to lighten up and to goof around is fun too. I am not nerdy and if you are fear-driven or a worry all-the-time person we can avoid wasting time. I like smiling and laughing and enjoying great times instead, Further, you need to be in a good place. I avoid those that have a lack of confidence or self-clarity. On the contrary, if one possesses a positive outlook, humble self-confidence, and ability to communicate well, then I am open to possibly talking and learning more.
Thank you for taking the time to read this and good luck. Finding the right person is not an easy task but is certainly a worthwhile endeavor.

Date single man from Arizona, United States. I am in the process of revising my pics and profile when i get back from traveling-thx
I like the outdoors immensely-it makes me feel alive. Getting away from the crowds is very important to my well being. Plus, having substantial knowledge of the local geology, geography, plants, birds and other critters makes exploring the woods all that much more interesting. I am in pretty good shape and i need a good, consistent physical challenge to keep me on my toes. Many folks i know consider me an extremist when it comes to "playing in the woods", but to me this is quite normal and i wouldn't have it any other way. However, at this point in my life i am just a weekend warrior with a lot of outdoor experience/appreciation...
I am also a small business owner/scientist and my work is always interesting and challenging. I love my work.
My friends/family are my life. I am a great friend to have because it is important to me to support them/treat them well, help them out as much as possible, and also be treated well by them. Sort of weird but if you get to know me it will all make sense.
Things that are important to me and i look for in a woman: trust, honesty, loyalty, courtesy and respect (I believe I am starting to recite the Boy Scout motto here......) But i try to be these things too, esp loyalty. I am a firm believer in fate/luck/chance...whatever you want to call it. I feel strongly about making things happen for yourself instead of just bumbling along thru life.....
Karma takes care of those who are kind/helpful/courteous to others, especially to people you don't even know, in a far away place....
I also know my way around a kitchen and appreciate a good bottle of red wine. I know the difference between 200 and 800 thread-count sheets....I can play the corporate executive when the situation dictates it-but i love to wear shorts and sandals to work. Being the boss has some perks!
I am looking for: a woman who relishes life as much as possible and isn't afraid of a challenge; a woman sure of herself and will stand by her principles-no timid girls for me; a woman who is feminie but can spend a week in the backcountry and get dirty and not worry about it; a career-oriented person who has her own goals.....are you out there?

Meet a man from Arizona, United States. "Nice guy that might just make you laugh", at least that's what my mother says. "Oh, come on now that was funny even if I did reference my mother!" Anyway, I'm looking for someone who's content in who they are and can laugh at themselves. Do you seek joy in the little things in life? Do you feel good in your own skin then give us a call? I'm not "working on myself" and now seek someone to be part of my life. I'm looking for someone who wants to be part of the journey called life. Life can be tough sometimes, but spending those times alone can make it that much harder. Wow! talk about boo hoo me. Man! I feel like I'm sinking even further into boo hoo city. Will it ever stop? Can I pull myself up to laugh in the face of it? Okay superman we're moving right along here.
I've been spending a lot of time in the gym and on the roads training for the triathlon events I like to do. Keeps me in shape and out of trouble plus it fills my competitive need.
I enjoy spending time with my girls on weekends looking for free festivals or outdoor events that we can enjoy together. I dragged them to a Cardinal's game one time. They wanted cotton candy and a foam finger I just wanted to watch the game. We had a great time.

Date men and women from United States. Stable, well educated, financially secure, family oriented, positive thinking, and passionate man that enjoys both giving and receiving back rubs and ....
... knows the power of optimism, laughter and letting the everyday irritants go in order to be happy both in and out of a relationship.
... believes we have the ability and obligation to take care of our environment and leave each successive generation with the resources to live a better life.
... helps kids learn by offering free tutoring to those that otherwise can't afford it because its rewarding and important to our future.
... loves to ski and enjoys the outdoors with my "best friend" Gizmo.
... has a goal of a second home on the ski slopes, but if you're not found of snow, a beach may be in order.
... enjoys making new friends and travelling, but is looking for the right woman to share experiences with.
... is established in the Phoenix area, but recognizes that the one I'm searching for may live in another city and is open to relocating.
The goal is simple, but elusive. I'm looking to build a fun passionate, as well as compassionate, healthy relationship based on trust, respect, and good communication with a stable woman, and enjoy a happy drama free committed partnership full of both adventure and simple pleasures.
P.S. I regret having to say this because I don't want to sound negative, but I've found a lot of fake profiles on Match. Please don't waste our time. If you send me an alternate email address without a good reason why we can't get to know each other on here, meet in person or talk on the phone, then I'll assume you're just another scammer that lives in another country and thinks I'm gullible enough to believe your "please send money" story.

Meet a soulmate from United States. I am positive, close to my family, mellow, and generous. I can't remember the last time I was in an arguement. I find myself getting more liberal the older I get.
I'm pretty terrible in the kitchen, which is quite unfortunate as I really love to eat, sweets being my biggest weakness. It would be great if my match could cook. My house is pretty clean and I am happy to clean up.
I find it very sexy when someone is happy and positive, it would be fantastic to meet someone who is sexy on the inside. Oh yes, I'm not really into biker girls.

Date people from United States. I'm professionally employed, in great physical shape, an active father, and stable. I'm looking for decent women to date and take things as they naturally progress. I am interested in a longer term relationship with things ideally progressing slowly. Usually we know within 5 minutes of meeting whether to find out more about each other, so a meeting at a neutral public place like a restaurant or cafe is an ideal first date.
DETAIL
ME: My traits stem from growng up on a farm in N Michigan and progressing to a PhD and corporate research labs: like opposite sides of the same coin one side rough the other refined. I am a strong believer in the power of positive mental attitude. Though I love my professional career, I am NOT your typical scientist/engineer. I enjoy ecletic, upbeat conversation, taking great pains to avoid "talk tech". My occupation often is guessed as military or police, probably because of my muscular frame and upbringing in a strict N Michigan family. I have four boys aged 17, 14, 8, and 4 years old. The two oldest are with me all the time and the younger two are shared equally with their mother (and yes, the boys all have the same mom). I call my mom most every Sunday. (My father is recently deceased.) I call my older sister at least once a week; she and I are very close. My younger brother and I were about as close as two men could be; he accidentally passed away in 2008. Our aged black lab recently died; we're now considering getting an English Mastiff puppy. My boys love our two cats. I work two professional jobs (one is evening teaching at a local community college), am primary caregiver for my boys, immerse myself in my bodybuilding hobby, and tend a large home with pool and grassy lot. I'm still trying to figure out how to insert coaching football into my schedule; so far not.
YOU: I'd rather be less restrictive regarding a woman's on-line profile. I've met people from all walks of life each having an interesting story. Reading someone's profile can't come near to the understanding one gets meeting in person. Since I spend a lot of time in the gym and eat a strict diet, then symmetry suggests a slender or fit woman who enjoys working out as a better fit to me. I do believe in "instant chemistry"; my father - a biology professor - says it really is chemical in nature, pheromones. I am comfortable first exchanging emails, texts, or phone calls as a preliminary to see if meeting is worthwhile.
BODYBUILDING: An important part of my life is competitive bodybuilding. The positive benefits both mental and physical gained from this hobby at this point in my life make me mention it. Because of the exercise, diet, and sleep regimens bodybuilding is a LIFESTYLE and not something one does a few hours a week. My experience is that women either love or hate bodybuilders, so I clearly state this now. I post my bodybuilding pictures because it seems EVERYONE (including men) in their profile state they are "Body type: Athletic and toned". But statistically how can that be when more than half the general population is considered overweight?
My life is active but a special woman will be at the center of it. Thanks for reading and hope you find that for which you're looking.

Meet someone special from United States. Hi there! My name is Angel and here's a little bit about who I am and what I'm looking for....
Having been on and off Match for a bit (don't make any assumptions) I have learned that it does take time to find the right one....obviously I'm still here so it is taking a bit longer but that's ok......I'm patient, not desperate and not broken....just picky as you should be as well.
I believe two key ingredients to a start of a healthy relationship are Timing and Attraction....without both...it simply doesn't work. You know...when you meet someone and you're ready to settle down and they just started their single life...Timing is off.
Once those two are in place....then it's, respect, kindness, communication, trust and the will to want to make your partner smile everyday....yes it is all about the little things. I want to make you smile everyday for the rest of your life!
I am first and foremost a proud Dad, a total giver, a caring Man, loving, passionate, extremely funny and simple yet complicating lol. Overall good guy with an edge :-) I am confident and don't need a woman in my life to complete me...just simply want one and only one to share all the great moments that this life has to offer. I'm not a serial dater in fact just the opposite...although apparently being somewhat cute makes some think I'm a player....please don't judge a book by it's cover because this cat is great reading material if you simply turn the pages :-) My life's jorney so far has been filled with ups and downs but I wouldn't change it for the World.
I'd like to find a woman that I'm attracted to, that is funny, a giver, a Great Mom (if you have kids), done with the bar scene but likes to go out, honest, caring and believes that love does exist. Trust me I totally believe in love and would like to have that once again.
Anyhoo if you're interested just say hello....and for those that want to be text buddies or email back and forth for ages....please find someone else...while dating can be scary and there are alot of not so nice Men on here...I'm not one of them and would like to be in a relationship...so stop with the High School drama and be REAL.
Ciao,
Angel

I'm leaving most my stuff behind and starting fresh but still have a home to go back to when I want to visit the man cave again and cool off or build a fire and enjoy some winter weather. And work on my trucks-no room for all the toys at the new place and a HOA to mess with but thats ok. I have good neighbors up here who keep an eye on my man cave for me in my absence. Will have to store the boat cause its too long to put in the garage at the new place but will have it close.
I hope to share the fun with my fresh start too. So if you are ready to kick it off- start typing and I will return your email as soon as I can.
