Date a soulmate from United States. I'm looking for a woman that understands that the most important things in a relationship are honesty, loyalty and communication. I believe that if two people can communicate openly, in a non confrontational fashion they can have a great relationship.Love to travel anywhere where it's warm and has a Lake or an Ocean near by. Spent seven weeks up at Lake Almanor this past summer, Fishing,boating, riding wave runners and enjoying the mountains and everything mother nature has to offer. Hope to spend more time up there next summer. Spent 40 years wearing a suit and tie and now prefer Levis and shorts. Casual settings over formal, small groups over large crowds, country and Ocean over the big city. If your still reading here is the rest of the story.I'm a retired widower and a stay at home dad with a Eighteen year old son getting ready to attend Cal Poly in Sept. I've been alone for five years now and believe that you don't have to stop loving someone you lost to start loving someone new. I believe we have enough room in our hearts to fall in love with another person. I now live every day and don't worry to much about tomorrow. Be happy,smile and tell someone you care about them. It will make their day ! Now that I've had to be a stay at home dad I think I would make someone the perfect wife.( LOL ) I can cook ,clean,shop,do laundry and all the rest of those things most of you gals have had to do. Not saying that I like them, but gota do what you gota do.
