Date men and women from United States / Arizona / San Carlos, 47 year old

Date a soulmate from United States. I was raised in the Bay Area, but I've lived all over the USA.I have actually lived in every timezone in the US and Hawaii! At one point I was approached to move to Anchorage, well that's the only timezone I haven't lived in, sorry no wearing sunglasses at midnight for me! Plus I wanted to stay close to my family, where else can you appreciate so much, beach, city, and of course Tahoe! I like snowboarding, travel, a good deli sandwich, going out for dinner and having a great bottle of wine (beer), live shows, antiques, rare books, old cars and my values dictate that nothing is free so if you want it you better work for it. I believe in family and all it stands for, I love America and animals, not always in that order, and would like to hang out with the right person....is that so wrong!
I tried my luck at opening a Vintage Bookstore, alas back to work, well at least I tried! Damn Kindle!
Favorite quote! "There is but one rule of conduct for a man-to do the right thing. The cost may be dear in money, in friends, in influence, in labor, in a prolonged and painful sacrifice; but the cost not to do right is far more dear: you pay in the integrity of your manhood, in honor, in truth, in character. You forfeit your soul's content, and for a timely gain you barter the infinities." Archer G. Jones
Now that is good stuff!

Meet a woman from United States. Hi there! This is my second time around with Match, thought I would give it another try. I'm ready and open for a relationship should the right guy come along. My mom says I'm not going to meet someone looking, actually alot of people say that, but I do know several people who are happily married and they met on Match.
I was born and raised in Northern California. We moved to Norway where my mother is from and lived there for a year but came back because my dad couldn't take the winter, thanks Dad!!! So every summer we would go back to visit. I traveled a lot before kids, all over Europe many times and then came the kids and it was Maui for the first time and I loved it. Last year I went back to Norway and took an awesome trip to Costa Rica. I'd love to go back to Italy and France again, especially if I fall in love with someone!
So the kids are big..my son is 16 and still at home with me and my daughter, 20 is out on her own discovering what she wants to do. It's bittersweet because I have more time but then I don't get to see them like I used to. That's why I think I'm here, because I feel I am ready to share my time with that someone special and my heart is open should he come along :)
I take pretty good care of myself and love style. I'm looking for someone who also cares about himself physically and knows how to dress himself. I'm not looking for the slick dresser, just someone who knows how to wear a pair of jeans, t shirt and even flip flops...very sexy to me.
Words to describe me...outgoing, independent, confident, caring, sexy, passionate, mischievous, witty, smart, loving, loyal, respectful, creative, affectionate, honest, stylish, athletic, adventurous, sensitive. There's more, but you should probably find out instead of me listing them all!
What I'm looking for....someone who I can completely fall in love with. Obviously, attraction and chemistry have to be there. He loves me unconditionally as I would him, he's supportive, respectful, loving, affectionate, has to love to kiss and hold hands, share desserts or if I like it so much let me have the rest :) I want him to take the lead and show me what's out there, go explore together. He is successful, smart and content and positive in his life. He is close to his family and has kind friends. He has to like dogs because I have my puppy. He is passionate and loves to want to be with me. I could go on, but I guess I need to meet you to find out if this exists!

Date people from United States. IРІР‚в„ўm very outgoing and love to live life to its fullest. I consider myself a very warm, romantic and friendly person. IРІР‚в„ўm very open and honest, and want that of my partner as well.
I love all things outdoors. I love music, plays, travel to far away places, new cuisines, time with my son, flying, kayaking, scuba diving, dancing, wine tasting and just hanging out and enjoying the friendships I have. I'm working on getting my pilot's license and would love to find someone that takes to the sky like I do. No worries if you're not a pilot, just come along for the ride.;-)
I'm looking for a man who knows what is important to him. Someone who is good natured, takes care of himself both physically and emotionally, college educated, non-smoker, likes to travel, likes people and sharing life with friends/family, enjoys what children can bring to ones life, is compassionate, emotionally available, honest, has a desire to communicate with their partner, respects the differences between men and women, gentle yet strong, and has a great sense of humor.
Do you like what a special relationship brings to your life? Drop me a line and see if we might be a match

Meet a soulmate from United States. Hmm..to describe myself..My pictures are current. My smile says a lot! I can be sexy,sensual, sassy, smart and savvy. I'm happy in life and very comfortable in my own skin. I am very nurturing and affectionate and love to pamper my guy. I 'm grateful to have an awesome teenage son who is the funniest kindhearted kid..and he still likes me and says I love you mom in front of his friends! I own a successful floral business and love what I do. I make the best of everyday and love learning along the way. We're here for a short time and life's not a dress rehearsal so IРІР‚в„ўm trying to get it right on the first take. A person's good character is important ..Be kind to people! I'm physically and emotionally healthy I am a big fan of practical jokes..I love doing them and having them done to me! Growing up with 7 brothers and sisters will do that to you. I don't mind poking fun of myself and I'm an easy target. My friends are important to me as your guy friends are to you. I like that you want to go golfing, sporting avents, play cards-poker, (As long as it's not strip poker!) etc with your friends. I like that you are very o.k. that I have my girl time...It's healthy!
My"perfect match" would be someone that rocks my world of course! You are confident not cocky,sensitive but strong. You are smart with a quick witted sense of humor that can keep me on my toes as much as I keep you on yours! You exercise regularly and have a passion for it as I do…. Someone who is comfortable in conversation and handles daily stresses with ease . I do believe in Chemistry..It’s a must.
