Date someone special from Arizona, United States. I'm a Phoenix native and grew up here along with this city, however I moved to Surprise in 2004 and enjoy living on the outskirts of the Metro area.
I'm self driven and pursue many hobbies including aviation, photography and wine. I'm in the beverage distribution business (beer, wine & spirits) and have enjoyed learning about wine and becoming somewhat of a connoisseur myself. Now I can take that knowledge to my customers as well as my friends and help them understand what passion wine can give! Life is too short to drink bad wine!
I enjoy the outdoors and try to keep fit with a regular workout regimen. I also keep busy in the kitchen trying new recipes and experimenting with new techniques. If you're a foodie too then you might join me in some good food and wine!
I keep a tight circle of close friends that I like to spend time with as well as my family.
I'm looking for someone who is comfortable with who they are and has a fun sense of humor, laid back but energetic personality. Someone who values healthy living is a plus.
So if you seek new adventures and enjoy travel as well as a cozy night at home then maybe we can sip a glass together!

Meet people from Arizona, United States. I’m an East Coast transplant now at my second go around in AZ. Spent 4 years in East Valley during the late 80's, now living in West Valley since 2006. In between,spent almost 15 years in No. CA. Bay Area. Love the diversity that a city such as SF has to offer.
While I focus on trying to create and maintain a balance between professional, family, and self – family will always come first. It's part of my values. Father of two great boys and a terrific daughter and truly enjoy the time we spend together.
Not seeking perfection. Somebody that is genuine, positive, and enjoys engaging conversation. I work out on a regular basis and lean toward a healthy lifestyle and prefer someone similar. However, yes I'm Irish and I can still keep up after midnight when called upon and prefer one that can still enjoy a night on the town. Must have sense of humor. Chemistry is important.
Oh yeah, and I really do enjoy coffee and it's an easy way to meet and have conversation - although a nice glass of wine works just as well.
Should anything pique your interest, give me a wink or send an e-mail and we can share more.

Date a man from Arizona, United States. I'm not in search of perfection, just someone perfect for me. I've been married, and divorced, twice (and clearly OK admitting it). I've experienced the emotional continuum from hope to despair, like everyone has, and still I believe. My optimism is not rooted in idealism, just a positive outlook. I've always been that way...I guess it's in the genes.
A little more about me... I love to laugh (the kind of laughter that comes from the gut). I have a somewhat left-of-center and dry sense of humor. I give everything to my profession, while I'm there, but respect my personal boundaries when I'm not. I am honest and am disappointed most by dishonesty in others. The little things mean the most...even emptying the dishwasher can be a good time with that someone special. OK, that's a little sappy!
My family is very important to me and, fortunately (with the exception of my daughter), my immediate family lives within a 30 mile radius of each other. They include my parents, one brother, three sisters, three brothers-in-law, four neices and four nephews. When the in-laws' families are factored in, it makes for very spirited holiday gatherings. My extended family lives in Florida, Pennsylvania, Maryland.
My passion is writing. I've spent time writing for print news and tried my hand at on-line magazine columnist-type writing but my goal is to become a published novelist. My topics of interest are varied but my primary focus is in characterization. Any story can be great with characters who are well developed and engaging...those who can be related with.
If you've read this far, thank you for taking the time. I invite you to let me know you're out there.

Date single man from United States. I'm the type of person that wants to grow old knowing that I experienced everything that life had to offer. I don't want to have to look back on life and think "gee I wish I would have tried that or gone there". I'll be the one thinking "what a great time that was when we did ..."!
I spend a lot of time with my son's, 21 and 18, camping, fishing and hunting. They are one of the most important parts of my life. I also enjoy the simple things such as coming home from work and goofing off with my sons or just sitting in the kitchen talking with them. One thing I look forward to every day is being greeted by my dogs. Their excitement about me coming home is always a pleasure.
In my eye's honesty is the best policy. I’ve come to learn its best to be upfront and truthful, no matter the situation or consequences. If you ask anyone that knows me they'll tell you that I'm always completely honest with them and I believe that builds longer lasting friendships. If we have the pleasure to connect here on match.com you can be sure what you hear is definitly what you'll get. I am someone who is hard working and very devoted to who or what I am involved with in my life. I also do my best to never take anyone or anything for granted.
I’m looking for a woman who has strength in character, is honest and fun loving. She’s someone who is commited to family and friends. She’s open minded enough to try to experience different things like scuba diving off the coast of the bahamas or the more simple things like enjoying a great sunset sitting by the pool.
I hope we have a chance to meet but if by chance we don't I hope you find what your looking for and remember to always "live like you were dying" and enjoy life. OK so I borrowed some words from Tim McGraw, LOL.

Meet men and women from United States. Hi there. I am no longer a match.com subscriber. I have worked as a Mortgage Banker for the past 15 years. I work hard, but also know that the most important moments of life are not spent working. I have been to been to over 20 countries and very much enjoy taking cruises. I am seeking that unencumbered partner who has the time and freedom to travel the world. I am the author of a popular travel book, which has sold over 200,000 copies worldwide and have been a guest on over 850 TV and Radio shows across the US, Canada and the UK. I have over 20 years business, military & government experience and served on the staff of two Governors.
I am not interested in casually dating or dating multiple women. I am looking for one woman of substance that I can grow and develop a meaningful long term relationship.
I thrive on intelligent, inspiring and positive conversation. Communication is one of the most important aspects of a relationship and is a huge intellectual turn-on for me. I love to express myself in many ways and am seeking a partner who can respect my individuality, as I would them, and add to it in a positive supportive relationship. I am a positive energy person and prefer people with a positive outlook on life.
I moved back to Arizona after living in Southern California from 2003-2009. I like boating, hiking, movies, travel and intelligent conversations over coffee.
Sipping red wine or brandy in front of a roaring fireplace while sharing intimate conversations, trading back massages, cuddling together and long passionate kisses while listening to romantic music by Andrea Bocelli would define a perfect moment.
I am looking for an inspiring woman with whom we would share a deeply moving, emotional, romantic, physical and spiritual bond. I enjoy hiking, tennis, kayaking, skiing, boating, travel, golf, convertibles, bookstores, working out, chess, real estate, intellectual conversation and politics. I am seeking an attractive, intelligent, sparkling, grounded, classy, spiritual, compassionate and professional woman....to share life's precious moments, treasures and travels beyond the end of time. Love, travel, friendship & romance are among life's greatest experiences. Good luck to all in this journey of life. We are spiritual beings on a human journey.

Date someone special from United States. I'm down to earth with an outgoing friendly personality and a youthful spirit. I'm also an old fashioned romantic guy who still enjoys treating his girl like a lady. I'm easy going and likes to get out and enjoy life as much as possible. Friends and family tell me I'm funny and goofy at times too. I'm looking for a committed relationship with that special someone and explore what life still has to offer. I want a friend first, and then who knows afterwards? I of course, like sports being outside and staying active. I have two great kids who I love, one in college the other in high school. I can be serious when I have to be, but would rather be spontaneous and just "wing it" sometimes. I appreciate the little things in life and try to find a balance for a happy healthy life style. I am loving, energetic, smart, compassionate, successful and driven. I have a stable income and am comfortable where I am now. I'm also flexible and willing to try new and exciting things. I am not afraid to grow, or be vulnerable, or to open my heart. I am both trusting and trustworthy, genuine, thoughtful and kind. I have an easy smile and a positive attitude. I am selective and am looking for a very special woman.
I enjoy dining out with friends, bbqing, nights out listening to live music and sometimes just relaxing watching movies. I enjoy hiking, anything to do with water, and love going to any beach. I stay positive on any situation even when life has thrown me a curve. I like going downtown with friends for good conversation and a nice glass of wine sometimes too. We all love to laugh, a girl who has a sense of humor is always attractive to me.
I'm a big lover of travel and have been to Europe, Asia and Hawaii. I've been all over the U.S. and hope someone will want to take more trips and see what else is out there to discover.
I guess I am looking for a special lady who is outgoing and can make me laugh. Someone who is positive and can put that smile on my face when I see her. Someone who is a little old fashioned and likes to be treated like a lady. Maybe likes to hold hands and take walks at night. Who can be spontaneous and do who knows what... just because.
If you want to be treated like a lady, then let's get together and see what happens.
