Meet a man from California, United States. My personality is fun, energetic, attentive, patient, understanding, strong willed, independent and forgiving. I love meeting people. I'm a big believer of chemistry and not losing out on that opportunity. Care to see if there's any chemistry between us?
Date a soulmate from California, United States. I am described by my friends as very outgoing and friendly. However, I am more of a conversationalist than a writer. A short blurp of a paragraph is hard to convey the essence of a person's soul and personality. My primary avenue of fun is going out to dinners with friends and having witty conversations over a nice bottle of wine. I'm also a big fan of the movies and enjoy going to film festivals. I listen to music of all types and go to concerts frequently at the various venues in the bay area. I am active in my lifestyle and enjoy the various outdoor activities offered in the Bay Area. I also enjoy going to sporting events. I am an avid viewer of college football. As you can see from my screenname, I am a graduate of Texas A&M University. I am also well travelled having lived in Europe for three years and have worked in both Asia and South America. Lastly, I enjoy having a good laugh. However, my humor tends to be a bit obscure as can be seen by my quote. Most people don't have any idea who is Alfred E. Neumann, but those who do will understand some of my humor. Failing that, the phrase "Put the candle back." would be another good indication of the source of my humor.I am looking for someone who is outgoing and educated. I would like the person be interested in sports, but also has an interest in the arts. My ideal companion is someone who also has a nice laugh and does not take themselves too seriously. Lastly, I am looking for someone who is interested in going out on the weekends and has a fun outlook towards life. A good conversationalist with a nice smile is always good to have.
Meet men and women from United States. I never know what to write in these things, but here we go!
I love to laugh. Since it's hard to quantify the type of humor I have, perhaps some examples will help: in the "musical" humor section, I love Victor Borge and PDQ Bach; in the TV section, I don't watch very much, but I find "The Big Bang Theory" quite funny; in the "Saturday Morning" TV section, I'm quite a fan of classic Warner Brothers (more Chuck Jones than Tex Avery); in the "watch with my son, but would watch anyway", there's "Spongebob Squarepants" and "Martha Speaks" (yes, really); Monty Python is always fun; and in the book section, Terry Pratchett (Discworld) and Douglas Adams (only the first three books) are nicely aligned with my sense of humor.
My favorite outdoor activity is running. I prefer long distances (8 miles or more) and I'm gearing up for even longer distances as I prepare to run another marathon in the fall (not to mention two half-marathons coming up before that). I love rock climbing, but I haven't been able to find the time to really get back into it (it's been many years since I've really climbed). I just signed up for some rock-climbing lessons to take with my 7-year old son, so that should be fun.
I've been going out more to hear live music in the smaller venues (The Independent, Slim's) lately, because there's something special about the connection with the band and the audience. It's also great to hear new bands that I never would have been exposed to otherwise (I was recently turned on to the Summer Twins, who opened up for Matthew Sweet).
I'm a voracious reader and I'm usually in the middle of reading a wide variety of books (and probably more than my fair share of blogs, essays, and tweets), with most of them on my iPad for easy access (and reference). I love words, playing with words (as in puns), and writing (I'm in the middle of writing two short books), which I struggle with because I take a lot of care (probably obsessively so) in finding just the right word to use. Alas, I can get easily lost in Roget's Thesaurus and forgetting about the great concept I was originally trying to express.
I play guitar and record my own songs on my digital studio (sounds impressive, but it's really just my computer and a lot of expensive software and gadgets), and even if nobody else likes it (let alone pays for it), I do it for myself as a creative outlet. There's really nothing like listening to one's own music and simply enjoying it.
So I realize I've written quite a lot about me, or at least the things I like doing and that make me laugh, but I haven't yet written what I'm looking for. Partially it's because if you found any connection to the above, then you might be that person. The other part is I after being married for 10 years and separated for almost 2, I don't yet have a clear enough vision of what I'm looking for to be able to put it into words. When I figure that out, I'll write more here.
Date someone special from Foster City, United States. I like to meet someone to enjoy my life with and have fun. I am a successful Senior Account Executive for a Title Company in San Mateo County. I enjoy working out at the GYM, biking, yoga, music, dancing, BBQ, and enjoy every minute of my "present" life. I am looking for someone I can have fun, travel and enjoy life with.
Meet men and women from United States. Important update: My nephew's baby was born recently so I'll be leaving Match soon. I would still like to meet someone.
I'm looking for a warm, compassionate woman who likes to be close but also has her own space and allows me mine. She could be a chameleon; a girly-girl one moment, a tomboy the next, and in a few minutes some shade of gray in between. It would be nice to share interests, but also nice to have some we may learn about from one another. She'd be smart, articulate, and comfortable in her own skin and be looking for a long-term committed relationship.
I believe in opening a door for a lady or holding her chair. Does that make me a gentleman? Not in my eyes, but I have been accused of being one.
I'm kind of goofy. I have a bad habit of mimicking people, which sometimes keeps my co-workers in stitches. I tend to make fun of myself, but I also make fun of all sorts of things in daily life.
I've lived most of my life on the San Francisco peninsula. I love the quietness of the suburbs. I also like the simplicity of life in the central valley and some of the more rural communities. The funny thing is that a former colleague of mine who came from Alabama once told me that my neck was redder than his grandfather's (this was meant in a complimentary fashion - his grandfather was a true Southern gentleman).
The highest point in my life was probably when my Poodle puppy made his first hunting retrieves. I guess the second highest was when he finished his AKC championship a couple of months later. He finished so fast that I still didn't understand what was happening. :-) He's not with me any more, but I recently got my new puppy. Puppy showed some, but it's not in the cards for him.
One of my other passions is auto racing. I love the skill and knowledge it takes to put a team that performs together. It's fun to analyze what the cars are doing and what needs to be changed. I love the spectacle of the sights, sounds, and smells the racetrack brings. There's just nothing like an American V8 powered car powering out of a corner (but I've driven some little foreign jobs around corners before too).
When I was in college, I did a little bit of competitive martial arts.
I like photography. You'll find me behind the lens, not in front of it. That's why I don't have a lot of pictures of myself. I also enjoy leisurely bike rides and (surprise!) walking my dog.
What do I do for work you ask? I'm currently working for a non-profit that deals with child care and education issues. My previous life was as an engineer in a tech company. I try to learn something new every day (although I don't always succeed at that!).
The people I work with would describe me as "tall" and "slender" or "thin." Personally, I think I'm about average, but I've been living in this skin my whole life...
I've been described as awfully intelligent. A former colleague invited me to join MENSA. I declined after finding that it just wasn't my speed. I never really thought I was out of the ordinary in intelligence, but there you have it. I do think that smart is sexy. How sexy are you?
Date single man from Foster City, United States. I am a successful latin professional, in great shape who is looking for a young slender beautiful woman who has her life together, loves life and wants to live it to the fullest. I love a woman who is expressive, open minded, not argumentative, loves to travel, adventurous, romantic, sexy, hardworking, loyal and has a great personality.
Meet a man from Foster City, United States. I think most that know me consider me very down to earth, kind and yet have an unquenchable thirst to learn new things. I enjoy the simple things in life and am always up for a great adventure. Spontaneity is always a good thing. But mostly I like to share my life with someone who is equally committed to a long-term relationship/friendship. I enjoy commitment and all that comes with it, so bring it on!
Most importantly, I enjoy someone who is passionate about anything, hobby, travel or cause. Passion or Enthusiasm is so important to me.
I was born in San Francisco and raised here on the peninsula (one of a very few these days). And though I've lived here in about the best place in the world, I have traveled the world extensively through my work. Which makes me appreciate the Bay Area all that much more when I return.
I am adventurous and constantly learning about myself and the world I live in. Animals/pets have always been a part of my life's journey. Travel, road trips and that path least taken seem to always create some of my most cherished memories.
I am extremely comfortable and happy with who I am and the overall direction of my life both professionally and personally.
Commitment to a strong moral compass, compassion, and loyalty keep me very centered. I hope that she feels the same. I fall into the category of "I like animals more then most people", in a humorous way. Finally, I enjoy a women who is intelligent, kind and compassionate, but can also be adventurous, play hard and willing to roll up her sleeves and get dirty.
Date single man from Foster City, United States. Thanks much for stopping by.
I am experienced, accomplished and confident, yet uncomplicated, energitic and with a strong belief that the best (you) is yet to come. I am an all-in-one man, boy and life companion. You seek that in your partner and you offer the female reciprocal.
FRIENDSHIP and LOVE
Like me, you believe that friendship and love are necessary complements. We are both ready to be best friends now and "risk" that forces of nature take over and lead to strong mutual respect, love and desire - YES, that means falling into crazy and deep love and nurturing it for the rest of our lives. We are both pleasers and romantics and seek a partner with whom mutual care and exploration never ends. I have experienced love (and lust) that was not friendship and friendship that was not love. It has to be “best friends” AND “best lovers”. Friendship is built over time but also something you make a commitment to from the get-go - I am committed. Love starts with falling in love and is nurtured into lasting love - my love senses are on alert.
COMMUNICATION
We are also both exceptional communicators - using language, body and mind - and are ultimately seeking our respective soulmates to live it out to the fullest. I am a great listener and would enjoy any “test” you’d put me through. I am clear and polite in all my daily communiation and very good at expressing my feelings towards my partner. You are too.
CHEMISTRY
Chemistry may be the most exciting and intangible part of dating. If mutual, I will give you multi-fold the passion and fireworks you give me. I offer you the experience of a fifty year-old, the body of a man in his thirties, and the desire of a twenty-something male Homo sapiens; you see that as a promise rather than a warning :-)
BACKGROUND
I am a well traveled, European-born American with other international influence. I seek to combine the best of these worlds in my life and would be pleased to integrate it with your experiences and values. I have a good amount of personality, character, wit and humor. I run or exercise otherwise daily but also enjoy most of "the good" life has to offer. I have lived almost 20 years on the US West Coast and enjoy the outdoors, foods, mixed culture, etc. this part of the world has to offer. I love dogs and they me. I have self-sufficient, long-distance kids. I am at a stage in my life where I can finally focus on you and I, anywhere in the greater Bay Area. Our lives are drama free, we are financially secure, and our situations are such that we can be in California, travel and create wonderful history together.
I’d be happy to share much more with you and even more interested in learning about you, your family, your life experiences, your values, what you like and dislike, your desires and passions, etc. Does the best of our lives begin here - together?
Meet a soulmate from Foster City, United States. And before you ask, I haven't been married (been close once, actually had the deposit on the reception location...but thought twice about things when her Dad said, "If she's anything like her Mother, get out of it now!"), have basically been divorced (long story), learned a lot about women, am not scared at all of commitment, but am holding out for the right one so I can do this only once!
Its all about the CHEMISTRY, the CONNECTION and the little DETAILS! So if we have the chemistry (even if you're a Republican), most of this list won't matter, but since it's asking...here's a bit about me:
If you're not laughing by the end of this, have low self-esteem, just separated, can't get over your ex and want a quick hook-up with a great guy-only to see what you've been missing all this time and need drama to fill in the voids, only want a cyber or pen pal...it probably won't work with us, so good luck on your search!
I've just recently downsized and simplified my world and all I want is the right one woman for the rest of my life! That's it...sounds simple? I DON'T WANT TO JUST BE WITH SOMEONE, I WANT TO BE WITH THAT SOMEONE I CAN'T BE WITHOUT!

Did I say funny?
Things I love (not in any particular order): almost all movies, my family, honesty, friends, sexiness, fresh breath, women's bodies, women in skirts and dresses, eating healthy, weekend and day trips (sometimes to Hawaii), lower back dimples, airports (remember the movie LOVE ACTUALLY?), world traveling, lingering perfume, driving, getting and giving massages (I've been told I have great hands!), photography, great legs, bagpipes, a healthy body, single malt scotch, Asian design, interior design, architecture, travel shows, nice breasts (yes, I said it, but didn't say what size...), bikinis, high heels on women, kissing, hugging....;-) And no, just because I've never been married doesn't mean anything except that I haven't found the right one...yet!
My ideal match will be: honest, real, fun, talkative, vivacious, sexy (in her own way), HAPPY, a cute or sexy dresser, classy, health conscious, fearless, has learned from her past, a flirt and tease(with me), EMPLOYED, self sufficient, affectionate, a great kisser, a great COMMUNICATOR, loving, romantic, appreciative of a good man, aware of her credit rating, an enjoyer of lingerie and all the repercussions of wearing it! ;-), somebody who treats me as well as I treat her and enjoys her time with me!
Turn-offs, red-flags and POSSIBLE deal breakers:
Flakes & those with no follow through, If you're just looking for a personal assistant, plastic surgery junkies, liars, gold-diggers, alcoholics, smokers, druggies, racists, those in witness protection, POOR communicators, fear, poor or no follow through, disappearers, pretenders of any kind, fanatics (my opinion, not yours), are too needy and clingy, gym rats, users, the EMOTIONALLY UNAVAILABLE, players, almost anyone who voted for McCain/Palin, crazy dieters, and most, BUT NOT ALL hardcore Tea Party Republicans!
Date men and women from Foster City, United States. I am attracted to women who are honest, down-to-earth and easy going, with big hearts. Love great conversations...there’s just something about a woman who is witty and smiles often when she speaks. Ideally she's a light-hearted type of gal and not so serious all the time but knows how to take care of "business". I would like a woman in my life who is not easily intimidated and is secure. I admire confident women.
She's not arrogant or selfish but is financially, physically and spiritually balanced. I am hoping to meet a woman who has 'been there and done that' but still finds life interesting. Hopefully she will enjoy a lot of travel esp. abroad and cruises. And will be very open-minded so that we can 'explore life' as we live it. We can plan the big trips but spontaneous weekend get-a-ways would be a delight.
Meet single man from United States. I am a nice person who cares about others. I'm great a making others (and myself) laugh. I'm somewhat shy at first, but outgoing afterwards. I'm loooking for a partner to share life with. I welcome a drama-free life, and a fun, but peaceful lifestyle.
