Date men and women from United States / California, 54 year old

Date single man from California, United States. Thanks for stopping by.
In a nutshell, I'm not planning to die with the most toys, but I expect to be in the running for having had the most fun.
Friends and Family are important to me. I’m a proud Dad with amazing daughters who have grown up to be awesome women. I have wonderful parents and brothers. When we are all together there are hugs, good meals, adult beverages, quality conversation, friendly competition and stupendous amounts of laughter.
I've been blessed with meeting some great people and had many fine adventures. I enjoy lots of things, but quality people are at the top of my list. I find that some of the best times are had just hanging out with people you like and enjoying a fine meal, some fine wine and some equally fine conversation.
I like traveling. I have lived in Europe. I’ve filled two passports and I'm working on my third. There are still plenty of places I want to explore and quite a few I'd gladly return to. Places I'd still like to see include Greece, Turkey, Africa and Machu Picchu. I love planning the trips almost as much as taking them. I'm happy to play tour guide or let you lead the way.
Live music is a particular passion and I like to frequent the great venues we have here in the bay area – The Mountain Winery, Villa Montalvo, Moe's Alley, The Fillmore, The Fox, etc. My tastes gravitate toward rock/blues. I probably go to 30 or more shows a year.
Fixing things is fun and I'm generally successful. Occasionally profanity is involved. I apologize in advance.

I’m a “list person” and take pride in completing tasks and ticking things off my list. I think this has more to do with the sense of accomplishment and forward motion than anything. It just feels good. Having said that, I also enjoy taking time for sensual and stimulating pleasures like fine wining and dining, reading, exercise, movies, full body hugs, the restorative power of the occasional nap and of course the aforementioned live music.
I'm a gentleman (thank my mom...).
I'm a Romantic. With a capital "R".
I like learning.
I'm in touch with my inner child, but can put him in time out when appropriate.
I like to cook. The dishes are generally edible.
I have a vocabulary and I'm not afraid to use it.
I like watching and playing sports. I'm not obsessed with either approach. (Go Sharks!)
I think there's something indescribably delicious and soothing about the sound of the surf.
My idea of "roughing it" is bad reception at Motel 6.
I believe that life is not about waiting for the storm to pass, but about learning to dance in the rain.
All in all I’d say my life has been like a good book. Like any good book, you have to choose between savoring what you have just read or racing ahead to see how it all works out.
I’m attracted to fit, fun, passionate females, with great smiles, twinkling eyes, a dash of mischief and a well developed sense of humor. Hopefully someone out there will fit that description, and if you do, please don't be shy. At the risk of sounding shallow, history has taught me that my taste in women really does run to the slender/athletic end of the spectrum. So if you fear bathing suits more than death we probably won't be a match.
--- Some Observations on Life that I admire ---
“Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind.”
Dr. Seuss
“When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down �happy’. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life.”
John Lennon
"Growing old is mandatory; growing up is optional"

Meet a man from California, United States. Hello,
I am a business professional with a balanced lifestyle, mature yet boyish. I am very loyal, committed, and secure. I relish life, friends and family, and consider those very important to any relationship. I can promise you that I’m easy going, a good listener, and I have a great sense of humor with a positive outlook on life.
I enjoy a diversified lifestyle that includes business, working out, travel, the beach, cooking, music, and reading. I am comfortable in both social and quiet intimate settings from shorts and tee shirt to dressing up.
I’m looking to meet someone who knows what she wants in life, but doesn’t take herself too seriously, someone I can hang out with and become best friends, someone I can fall in love with and someone who enjoys my company and I hers. If you are interested in these attributes then I hope to hear from you.

Date men and women from California, United States. I am a man that has truly been blessed; although not perfect, I genuinely love and enjoy my life. I have finally figured it all out! I have so much to be thankful for, a great family, fantastic friends, a job and profession that I love and good health! Consequently, I am a very happy man.
First and foremost, I am a God fearing man, one whose faith in the God is growing daily. I have a very youthful spirit, qualities that best describe me are honesty (if you don't want the truth I'd advise not to ask), loyal, confident, secure, driven (I know what I want and I go for it), outgoing, affectionate, compassionate, optimistic (my glass is always half full), humble, I have a strong sense of style, well grounded (although I have and enjoy nice things, they don't define who I am) and lastly, I am a gentleman.
I enjoy reading. I love all types of music, spending time with family/friends, lounges, the theatre, a great happy hour, concerts, nice restaurants, quiet nights at home, a sports fan (Go Lakers!), and believe it or not, one of my most favorite things is shopping for clothes, just drop me off at a good Mall and let me run wild (lol). I also would like to add that I live a very no stress drama-free lifestyle and have absolutely no unresolved or undefined relationship issues.
I truly hope to meet a woman whose interests, values, and style compliments mine. She is one who understands that the foundation of any relationship of substance is friendship and has the patience to allow one to develop; it is extremely important for me to "like" a woman in contrast to being "head over-heels" in love initially, which I believe tends to subside over time, its the "like" element that allows love to endure the trials and tribulations that relationships are faced with on occasion.
If my profile has piqued your interest drop me a line, Summer is here, lets enjoy it together!

If you are about to either wink or notice me via your Daily 5, please write instead (otherwise most likely I will not reply, sorry), thank you in advance. A sentence or two is sufficient, welcome and appreciated.
Time spent outdoors when I can which is daily with my four-legged pal Max I look forward to eagerly. Traveling locally & afar (no tour buses, sorry) exploring and learning I enjoy. I love to run in the local hills, walk daily, hike, bike, canoe/sea kayak, play in the park with Max, camping at Upper Pines in Yosemite Valley in mid-May, appreciate an art exhibit, etc. At the same time, I am happy hanging out at home, pulling weeds out of my English garden, relaxing in front of a cozy warm fireplace beside you, or doing most anything else.

Your help, comments, criticisms and concern are always appreciated and welcome. Admittedly sometimes I can be rather slow in initially understanding yet fortunately, motivated by will power and an inner drive to succeed as best as I can, I eventually get it right.

Friends first and always works best for me and hopefully you too, let's get to know one another one day at a time.

Date men and women from United States. I believe the bond between a man and woman grows with time.
The initial connection leads to greater feelings and desire increases. Without the bond there can be no lasting relationship.
I desire a woman who understands the importance of this. I feel that in order for this to occur there needs to be honesty and shared desires. If the man and woman have similiar desires and interests the relationship will thrive.
Staying in touch with family and friends is important, but nurturing my immediate family is even more important. The woman I seek would be a welcomed member of our family.
About me. I'm tall dark and handsome, except I 'm not that dark any more and I have lost an inch or two. But I'm in great shape and exercise on a regular basis. I enjoy leisure time, but I take care of my responsibilities and work before I relax.
I'm looking for a partner who's in good physical shape, being height and weight proportionate, and who is educated or at least has something to say. It's important to be able to communicate what you feel and need. What I really seek in a woman is compatibility, companionship and love.

Meet a soulmate from United States. Are you my Ms. Right?
If so, you are my-everything and we will be happy till death does us apart!
I am happy and content with myself. I love who I am and what I am! I have no expectations from you to make me happy! If you are NOT already happy with yourself I certainly can’t make you happy!
I am a warm hearted man full of compassion and loving kindness. I am patient. I am humble. I do not think of myself first. I am not puffed up. I will care for you when you are sick. I will feed you when you are hungry. I will hold you when you are scared.
I am generous with my time, my gifts and my heart. I am not afraid of giving you my all! I will fall in love with you and remain in love with you for the rest of my life! I will be faithful to you! I will avoid other women like the plague! I will be there for you through thick and thin, no matter what.
It’s true! It is who I am!
I don't care much about the small stuff or any stuff for that fact, as long as we have mutual love and respect for each other. And if so, you will greatly benefit, so help me God.
Woman! I want to be loved and respected, that’s all! As You Do! And all other things will be added to us.
So I ask you: Do you love unconditionally? Are you respectful? Are you faithful?
If so, then we should meet and get to know each other and stop losing days we will never get back! We can start by going to movies, dinner and dancing, theater and concerts and much more.
Waiting to hear from you!
