Date men and women from United States / California / Irvine, 53 year old

Date someone special from Irvine, United States. When you first meet me, you’re definitely going to notice a smile on my face and probably me trying to make those around me have a laugh too. I’m a friendly, warm, man who was raised with manners and integrity, so I treat everyone with respect and know how to treat a woman like the lady she is.
I’m in a wonderful place in my life right now. I’m surrounded by incredible people who I love and love me back, have the greatest kids in the world who make me more and more proud each day and am going back to school to fulfill my dream that was put on momentary hold for several years. So, I have absolutely nothing to complain about. The only thing I could see making it all even more spectacular is sharing my life with that special woman who will not only be my partner, but also my best friend.
And as a partner, I have a lot to offer my match. I’m a man who’s down-to-earth, kind-hearted and lives life to the fullest. I truly love my life and am passionate about the things I care about and always make time for them. I’m someone who respects and strongly adheres to traditional values such as honesty, sincerity, integrity and compassion for others. I believe in always doing the right thing and am looking for a woman who shares this outlook.
My ideal match will be someone who’s family-oriented like me. I have three grown children with whom I share a very close relationship even though they live in northern california. And while I’m looking for friendship first, eventually I want to find the one to share my life with and who I can introduce to my family, so that will always be somewhere in the back of my head.
Initial chemistry and attraction is of course important, but what’s more important is how beautiful someone is on the inside. I want to meet a partner I connect with on all levels, so we can share life-long adventures together. I want to meet a woman who is responsible with a good head on her shoulders, but still knows how to have fun. She’ll be loving, honest, intelligent, and carry herself with a quiet, sexy confidence—never arrogance. Most of all, she’ll be in a good place in her life where she’s ready to open her heart to a man who will appreciate her for the incredible person she is.
If you think we may hit it off, I’d love to hear from you. Send me an email and let’s see where it goes from there!

Meet a soulmate from Irvine, United States. I’m new to match.com and at such a young age apparently my autobiography starts now…..To those who know me, they say I'm one of the good guys, easy to understand and get along with, problem solver, funny, playful, serious when I have to be.
I can travel or be home and be happy, stable (emotionally and financially), caring, giving, not clingy-but always close, hardworking (which buys me freedom), clean, spontaneous and faithful. I'm not overly complicated and I appreciate a life without manufactured drama. Life is too short, so lets just live it with a smile.
Here’s a quick snapshot of my life in 2 paragraphs…..I am the youngest of 12 (same Mom and Dad), grew up in South Chicago, poor family, parents divorced when I was 5, raised by my Mom, older brothers and sisters, at 13 my Dad fought for custody of me and won. He then sent me to an orphanage (for my own good -he stated...and as it turned out he was right, God Bless him for making the tough decision) where I lived until I graduated at 17. I then left and moved by myself to California where I started my life. Fast forward -I married, had 2 sons, my Xwife moves to North Carolina which left me with the responsibility of raising them....Fast Forward again….they're now 23 and 24, (living on their own) received their Business Degrees and played baseball for a private Christian University in San Diego.
Raising well behaved, healthy, fun loving sons and having quality relationships with them are my two greatest achievements. But what a lesson, If I taught a class in parenting it would include all aspects of 7 topics that have deep meaning and consequence……....Love, Communications, Discipline, Hard-work, Direction, Faith and No Excuses.
In closing, since my divorce in 1992 I've had 1 serious relationship that was off and on, we eventually left as friends. The reason that relationship failed was my inability to give her the love and attention she deserved. Please know, I wasn't a womanizer, or partier, it was simply this; I put all my focus on my sons and business after my divorce. Now that my sons are grown, my businesses are stable and I have matured and learned balance I can now see what mistakes I've made and I know I won't repeat them again. I am now ready to start the next chapter in my life by finding the woman that is deserving of my gift, as I would be of hers.
For me, the Keys to a lifelong love affair are;.....Stay in touch with your lovers thoughts, desires, and why they love you....-and never stop. I beleive if I practice this simple approach you will most likely be the last person I ever see before my time is over.
It’s time to really enjoy the fruits of our experiences and labor.

Meet a soulmate from United States. I am interested in meeting a woman who is kind, sincere, intelligent, funny, and an independent thinker. Above all, someone who
is comfortable around me and with whom I can be relaxed.
I like hiking, stargazing, and other outdoor activities. Nature is important to me. I also like talking about everything under the sun. On the other hand, there are times when just sitting quietly or watching a movie or television fits the mood.
I'm liberal and agnostic, but I'm not out to change anybody's views on religion or politics. Even so, I think that if your inclinations are similar to mine, then we can be a good match. Liking the same music -- Led Zeppelin, Steely Dan, Genesis, Yes, The Who, CSN&Y, Miles Davis, Keith Jarrett, to name a few -- is a big plus, too.

Date men and women from United States. Love to explore - mind (reading, learning), body (sports, outdoors) soul (arts, self reflection) and community (culture, philantrophy). I am serious about things I do, but do not take myself too seriously :-)
I enjoy intellectual discussions, as well as fun (goofy?) times......told I tend to make witty observations and ironic quips. Enjoy being outdoors (picnic, walk, park) especially on weekends, and like indoors (movies, cultural, game night with friends) especially when feel more like relaxing. I thrive on doing things that help others, thus the career as a professor and consultant - it is a calling. They say if you teach a person to fish you feed them forever; but if you teach them to build fish farms you feed their families, community and future.
I do not hold back and thus can seem blunt; have learned that life cannot take a back seat to career so I make sure to seek balance and make time to have fun. Totally love my kids, and they are a high priority. That said I have room for, and they want me to have that right (perfect for me) woman in my/our life.
I am looking for A WOMAN (not a girl) who is fun, exciting, and even full of surprises in the moment, but is focused, dedicated, and even-keeled regarding the long run. Someone who has a thirst for life and growth, wants to explore new places and experiences, to learn and expand her mind in general, but also knows when it is time to "veg," be silly, be a kid in the moment.
One who enjoys being feminine in style but also is a feminist in beliefs. Who loves to be 'challenged' and would love to challenge me :-o Who is resilient, self-reliant, resourceful, sure of herself (maybe even cocky :-), dedicated to her goals, dreams and passions. Who is bold in and confident of what she brings to a romantic relationship. A WOMAN who does not take 'crap,' who advocates for justice, whose convictions and integrity intimidates the weak of character (male and female) and impresses the strong. Strong whether in career (changing the community/world) or at home (creating the castle, partner raising the kids).
