Date men and women from United States / California, 70 year old - page 2

Date someone special from California, United States. Describing oneself is difficult. I am easy to make friends and get along with. People trust me and confide their problems to me.
What I am looking for in her is trust and chemistry between the both of us. The ability to see each others point of view and work through problems that may exist. The acceptance of the other person for who they are and not what we want them to be.

Meet a man from California, United States. I am a simple man with a simple life and needs, but now I find that I get lonely and would like to have that special someone back in my life. I give more then I ask for, but in most cases, 50 50 works the best. Hoping to find that special someone to care about again, and take the walks on the beach, park, or where ever. Someone who likes to cuddle up by a fire or on the couch with some popcorn and a good move.
Someone to share and enjoy life with as it should be with two people. Friends are great, but there is a time and place for everything in life. I am looking for more then just a friend.
I know that you are out there somewhere, so come out and lets make something happen.

Date single man from California, United States. Hi.
Who am I? An attorney, happy person, generous, productive. Like going to plays, concerts, symphony, ballet, football games, hockey games, tennis matches, dinner out or in, , social events, and educationl events. I like weddings and birthday parties, and barbeques. Raised in Upstate New Toek, lived in Boston, NYC, Delaware, Miami, and now Bay Area. I love warm water and snow.
I am the oldest of 5, have 40 first cousins, friends from grammar school, was vice President of the Senior Class in highschool and college.I was a Professor at a State University, have been married twice, am a Godfather to 2 boys, and am searching for a female companion, and pal.
I used to be a good snow skier, water skier, played Polo and jumped horses, ran, player tennis and golf, and made one parachute jump. I did not make a bunji line jump., I dated wonderful women, wuth and without children, coached Little League baseball, and indoor soccer, and taught piano to 2 five year olds
In December of 2005, I was diagnosed with a brain tumor -- a giant one. After 13 and 1/2 hours of surgery, I awoke and was born into a new life.
In this new life my balance is affected.., I get around locally by walker or 3 wheel scooter, para transit, or your car. For non-local trips, I go by mass transit and commercial air. People treat me well, and actually it is easier to travel as a disabled person because of the way we are treated. (Please scroll down)
Today I am much tougher and at the same time, more understanding, compassionate, gentle and caring than I was before. Also I have had the time to unpack my thoughts, principles, beliefs, philosophies, tastes, desires, and dreams.. It is not what I would have chosn; but it is an epiphany...
Some say that I am facing an insurmountable challenge -- finding a woman who wants a relationship with a man such as I .. I think it's possible, even probable. It is my belief that the concept of "woman" may be broad enough to include one for me. This woman will be special.and I will treat her as special.
I am not seeking a nurse, aide, or caretaker. I am seeking a lover, friend, companion, advisor, and person who makes me laugh, who enjoys my sense of humor to, talk with, think with, sleep with, cook with, shower with, travel with, eat with, and build a relationship with,.These things are not all done at the same time; however we can begin now establishing the relationship you have contemplated. Enough! Are you still awake?
I am physically strong, take weight lifting courses and workout on machines. played goalie on soccer club last fall. I am an avid sports fan and like to go to games. I still go to the Symphony, Sharks games, etc., And rolled in the Bay to Breakers this year, and volunteer for Sausalito Art Fair. in their Security Division.
Searching for a woman who accepts me and also will enjoy the journey. .
ABOUT YOU
I feel presumptious setting criteria for women to whom I have not yet been introduced . Who knows what could develop in a growing relationship? There miigt be enough atttraction so that all of te critera become irrelevant. We jjust have to wait and see.!
But I will send out a wish list.
Dear Santa,
The woman I am seeking is intellectually curious, likes to play and watch sports, swims and performs other exercise on a regular basis, and likes to discuss matters.. She likes to go to plays, Symphony, ballet, movies, and socialize. She cares about herself and how she looks, and has lots of opinions, but is physically and mentally flexible.
She is also a confidant, positive, happy, funny, and fun to be around. She likes men, her body, her man's body, and likes being touched and touching.

Meet men and women from California, United States. I spent the last 13 plus years raising my daughter. She is now the adult, and I am apparently the child. Funny how that works. I'm semi-retired, very active, and love to be around people. I have many interests and would like to find a connection to someone who shares some of those with me. I am also a romantic and miss the intimacy that goes with having that special someone in my life. I'm hoping to attract someone who is fit, because that tells me much about what they think of themselves. Someone who is social and can fit in in all social settings, dinner parties, business events etc. Most of all, I'm looking for someone who is passionate about everything in their life. I would like very much to share their passions as well as they share mine.
Lastly, I wish I had someone else to help me write this. I feel like an idiot. I've just written two business books which will be published within a month, but writing my profile for this site...idiot comes to mind.
Additional thought. I am a foodie and I love fine wine.
Additional thought that expresses how I feel now that I am a seasoned citizen.
As I've aged, I've become kinder to myself, and less critical of myself. I've become my own friend.
I have seen too many dear friends leave this world, too soon; before they understood the great freedom that comes with aging.
Whose business is it, if I choose to read, or play, on the computer, until 4 AM, or sleep until noon? I will dance with myself to those wonderful tunes of the 50, 60 &70's, and if I, at the same time, wish to weep over a lost love, I will.
.
I will walk the beach, in a swim suit that is stretched over a bulging body, and will dive into the waves, with abandon, if I choose to, despite the pitying glances from the jet set. They, too, will get old.
I know I am sometimes forgetful. But there again, some of life is just as well forgotten. And, I eventually remember the important things.
Sure, over the years, my heart has been broken. How can your heart not break, when you lose a loved one, or when a child suffers, or even when some body's beloved pet gets hit by a car? But, broken hearts are what give us strength, and understanding, and compassion. A heart never broken, is pristine, and sterile, and will never know the joy of being imperfect.
I am so blessed to have lived long enough to have my hair turning gray, and to have my youthful laughs be forever etched into deep grooves on my face. So many have never laughed, and so many have died before their hair could turn silver.
As you get older, it is easier to be positive. You care less about what other people think. I don't question myself anymore. I've even earned the right to be wrong.
So, to answer your question, which by the way, you didn't ask, I like being old. It has set me free. I like the person I have become. I am not going to live forever, but while I am still here, I will not waste time lamenting what could have been, or worrying about what will be. And I shall eat dessert every single day (if I feel like it).MAY OUR FRIENDSHIP NEVER COME APART, ESPECIALLY WHEN IT'S STRAIGHT FROM THE HEART!

Date someone special from United States. Hi, thanks for stopping by ;
I came to NY City in the mid- 60's from Israel to study Physical Therapy ( Col. u. NYU) and had a long satisfying career in Physical Therapy( at least 15 years of which were spent in Pediatrics). I retired in 2008 and moved from Brooklyn NY to the central coast to start my "new career": inventing / developing mobility devices for handicapped babies.
Such projects challange my creativity and energy, but I still enjoy the out-doors (walk, camp, kayak, swim, hike, mountain road bike, do serious photography- and more). Culture and art have been an integral part of my life, I seek and Seriously enjoy music (mostly classical, but not only), theatre, modern dance and art of a wide variety. Frequenting L.A S.F, NYC ( or further away shores) for culture and adventure is a given. I've continued learning to play piano, have taken up sculpting with wood - (an old dream), and regularly experiment with cooking and creative writing. Spending time with good friends discussing endless topics of interest / concerns (such as the state of the world, country, environment, the human condition ) over home - cooked food good wine) is one of the many ways I socialize. I regularly attend cultural events, am involved in promoting liberal/ progressive causes of / for the greater good. And hey, there are always great books, good movies, tai chi and much more, aren't there?!
I think i qualify as a fun guy with a touch of seriousness, attentiveness, a sense of nostalgia, appreciation of the world, and artistic creativity, mixed with awareness and attention paid to the exterior physical world, and the interior, emotional/psychological world . I believe that the world is essentially more complex than we usually seem to think, including human dynamics. I'm respectful, mindful and appreciative of what transpires between people in general, and most significantly, in a relationship involving establishing emotional bonds.

Since you're reading this you must be looking for essentially the same thing that all of us using these screens are after : A meaningful, satisfying companionship, to share one's experiences and inner life with someone special - for the " rest of the journey". That's what i'm looking for as well.
I hope you're relating to some ( all ?!) of what you read so far, finding it of interest; I hope your'e enjoying your life, and are looking for a relationship of openly shared, meaningful communication; I hope you're sensible ( and sensitive), psychologically aware and emotionally available, resourceful, fun, liberal, have essentially resolved your personal baggage, is open minded, enjoy similar aspects of life as I do AND your own, and lastly- I hope you're approaching life with passion, awareness, humor, excitment, seriousness, and with touches of creativity, sensuality and reflectiveness ( in any order you'd like it) -
if my hopes are correct then i'd be delighted to hear from you.
enjoy

Meet men and women from United States. I am a high energy joyful spontaneous person with a song in my heart. I am optimistic, young in mind and heart, and have a spirit that thrives on joy and laughter. I celebrate each day with enthusiasm knowing that all of life is a poem (the essence of which is celebrated both with joy and tears; each a valuable part of my life). And what a absolute adventure life is. I have a strong sense of self. (My pictures are as recent as January and as old as 7 years; I challenge you to figure out which are which. And I do not do so well winks and nods - email only please.)
I have an absolute belief in magic and enchantment (which may just be God's sense of humor), how else would I see so much in star shadows after the moon has gone or know the joy of skipping barefoot through fresh formed dew. I am healthy, active, strong and semi-alethic. Plus I like to share cooking and baking.
I absolutely love this country of spirit and freedom. The last line of the Declaration of independence says it all: “And for the support of this Declaration, and with a firm reliance on the protection of Devine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our Sacred Honor”.
And there is another facet of my life, one that wants to share this whole happy sincere and sensitive person with yet another whole person. I long for and enjoy intelligent conversation, quiet one-on-one time, a simple life style and someone to hold hands with. And I enjoy exquisite dinners, at home or in very fine restaurants; I have to admit I am a bit of a wine snob (no, I am not quite totally perfect - yet); most of all, I love to play and be joyful. And oh by the way: my little boy, my heart of hearts, is looking for that one in six million, looking for that little girl that he cannot live without for all the rest of his life.
My match will be someone who just sparkles with life and joyfulness so we can become best friends on ever so many levels. Your happiness and beauty show through from the core of who you are. You are intelligent, quick, insightful, compassionate and laugh easily (a sense of humor is more than essential!). You are playful and affectionate and have the ability to empathize and express your feelings. You can trust me enough to share your dreams and be trusted enough to share mine; dreams are, after all, what this life is really about. You are equally comfortable dressed to the nines for an evening out and in old comfortable jeans at home. You will like physical activities: dancing (like no one is watching), walking, bike riding and . . .

I like protecting the environment and doing what I can to preserve what remains.

Two great grand kids that are very close though live far, far away. I have no pets but cuddle any neighborhood dog that will put up with me.
