Date men and women from United States / California / Laguna Beach, 50 year old

Date single man from California, United States. I'm simple and complex all at the same time. I enjoy great conversation and a witty repartee. I like to be challenged intellectually. I would enjoy meeting a woman who is interesting, knowledgeable and intelligent, attractive, sexy, and generally like minded.
I'm into my health and fitness, II'm good to myself, I eat healthy, don't drink often, however do enjoy a fine red wine or aged scotch on occasion. I choose to do things and be with people that I think will be good for me both emotionally and physically.
I'm a social person typically while working lives a very public life. I enjoy being around other people; however, I have a very private side and am discerning about whom I share my personal life with. I’m an extrovert and always enjoy an interesting conversation, I’m fun loving and sarcastic by nature, and have a great sense of humor, I don’t take myself too seriously, and find it easy to laugh at myself, (not just the bad jokes). I’m well mannered, a gentleman, affectionate (but, not overly mushy), and an all around good and generally happy person. I seem possess magic with kids and dogs, (never been bit by either) I have and live with 2 Cavalier King Charles spaniels (Sasquatch and Finnegan), a couple of great guys!
On a personal level I can be very laid back. I exercise daily, love snowboarding and being in the mountains surrounded by snow. I enjoy almost all music (except country), all kinds of (healthy) food and on occasion a glass of fine red wine or a really nice single malt scotch. In a business environment, I can be very intense. I work hard and am passionate about what I do everyday. The flipside is I love to relax and enjoy myself on the weekends and recharge my batteries.
I see myself with a special “high quality” woman, meaning she’s attractive, feminine, intimate, and intelligent, she possesses integrity, beauty, sensuality, deep, passion, loyalty, understanding, she’s supportive, and fun she has class, confidence, and drive.. I imagine a woman who knows what I mean with a look, and when I whisper (and I will) a completely inappropriate sarcastic comment to her at a wedding or other formal event, we bite our tongues and laugh for a week about it. (I do realize we’d actually have to meet and go on a date first).
I believe that there is a natural and organic component in a relationship which happens when two people meet and have chemistry with each other, lets allow that to happen and go from there.

Meet men and women from California, United States. First off, the picture of the girls in my photos are my DAUGHTERS, not my dates (lol) !! I enjoy traveling, golf, cars, sporting events, the stock market and meeting new people. I try and run (ok jog) 4 or 5 times a week, but I cheat, usually on a treadmill. My work consumes much of my time, but thats because I enjoy what I do. My profession dosnt leave me much time to meet folks and after numerous blind dates from well intended friends, thought I would try this venue. My favorite saying is "you miss 100% of the shots you never take", which speaks much about how I approach life. I'v been divorced for 12 years. She's a wonderful woman who's a great person/Mother following 13 years of marriage - no baggage (unfortunately a rare situation these days). To be honest, I dont have much interest in the bar scene, I did that for a while and simply dont care for the crowd or the environment. Dont get me wrong, I can party with the best of them - just not the ideal place to meet the quality Im looking for.
BTW, I must say, I do find many people embellish on here and clearly are not what they represent themselves to be. Frankly I dont get that ..? If your profile was 10 years ago or 20 pounds earlier, I think that would be abundantly obvious and isn't something thats overcome by "just get to know the real me". Just be honest. Im attracted to slender and/or fit Women, which is clearly a relative term on profiles (trust me). Also, I do get the National Geographic chanel, so 10 pictures of your pets, your vacations and landscapes really arent needed ....
Please have pictures, after all this is a "DATING" site. Would you buy a car without seeing it (ok, perhaps thats a bit superficial), would you take a day and ski down a mountain that you never looked at?. Seriously, that concept escapes me ...

Date someone special from California, United States. Thought that SHOESALE!! would get a fashionable, yet sensible, woman's attention! Im your typical, arrogant, self-centered, immature, opinionated, egotistical male. Ive suffered from chronic Green Grass Syndrome,(I'll be miserable for years waiting for something better to come along) and A.D.D. in H.D. ! - I'm a recovering over-achiever-micro-managing perfectionist. I'm an exceptional Beta-Theta-Delta Male... Mostly Beta...
REALITY CHECK!
Im now 50, (no gray) and am often told there is a resemblance to the actor William Hurt - that depends on whether you know/like him or how much youve had to drink. Am told my pix not as good as in person. (believe I did something terrible to a camera in a past life) I have an off-beat sense of humor & a highly intuitive, creative side. I live outside the (cardboard) box... I am colorblind in my non-dominant eye from watching so many Laguna sunsets...
Im a progressive, direct, playful Man & my inner child is tall enough to ride the rollercoasters of life. I value honor, integrity and generosity. I say what I mean and mean what I say. Ive taken gourmet cooking classes, I BBQ b/c there is danger involved. I never watch sports on TV or fold my socks on laundry day. My house is clean. I'll ALWAYS open doors for you, leave the seat down and tell U the truth. I am moderately trainable, old as I am.
I can go activity-casual, then to "something" dress up on the same day, but need 24 hrs notice to emotionally prepare for the wardrobe change.
My spiritual life-metaphysical & DEEP. Bring a life jacket for this conversation. I believe that we all have some baggage. Ive taken some serious time to take a peek inside. Felt like I overpacked on this journey, now I travel with only a carry-on. (Copyright 2001) I have lived an examined life & find a lot of humor & LEARN from all my life experiences. I AM really single, no kids, no crazy Ex's & SO ready for you! Really!
Who I'm looking for - a 4'16" (plus/minus), medium-maintenance, promiscuous, dominant M-W-F, submissive T-W-Th, (Im a Pisces) neurotic, passive-aggressive, obsessive-compulsive shopper to run errands, take care of household chores in lingerie and heels, providing mother-like care and personal service...
REALITY CHECK!
I seek a unique woman, 37-50 with a deep spiritual & shallow humorous side, who believes in "A" higher power. Im especially attracted to Strong, independent, feminine Asian, EurAsian / Int'l women who enjoy being & allow themselves to be treated like a woman. (Will explain later) And long, dark hair is very nice & not required.
Im seeking my Physical, Emotional, Mental, Spiritual & Passionate equal. A woman with the courage to go where she hasnt gone before & see who WE become on the other side. You have an amicable relationship with your former relationship(s) & can appreciate that I can do the same. Ive had great experiences dating women with a child & would be accepting of yours. Im NOT up for the diaper thing now. Adoption or just loving up on yours would be the best scenario. I appreciate your kind letters from abroad, but 16K Km is a bit far for a 1st date! & my Gulf-Stream is in the shop! I also believe you cant make a sound choice to spend your life with someone during an 8 week progressive dating elimination TV series. Bachelor(ette) And, YOU have to find ME kind of attractive with the lights or your glasses on. I'm the kinda guy that would put you up on a pedestal, mostly to get a better look up your skirt ! LOL
Hopefully, you are intrigued by my deep/humorous dissertation & can imagine how much fun we'll have together.
Or how much material we'll create for my future Comedy Central show on dating.
My view of a great relationship ? I get to be right at least 2 times a day, just like a broken clock...
Why not take a chance to meet me instead of sitting home searching ( reading this ) for some "other" Mr. Right (remember, only 2X a day) !

I'm looking for a fun person who likes to smile also. She should smile alot and just love life. My social life now is kinda boring I don't do much but I want to, I just would like to do it with someone else. Again, going out to the beach walking around checking things out or going skiing and drinking warm drinks in front of a fireplace.

Meet people from California, United States. Hi, I'm Gabe. I'm a successful sales executive who travels a lot. I'm bi-coastal (COASTAL) and looking to meet new people around NYC and Orange County, California. I'm newly divorced, so not rady for anything too serious to start. Mainly looking for fun that could become more in time.

Date single man from Laguna Beach, United States. Lets see...have to start somewhere...
I like a lot of different things, and this is where I'll leave out 'walking on the beach', etc. Who doesn't like that? Outside means cycling, hiking, getting on the horse, or whatever tickles my fancy at the moment. (I used to do a lot of rock, ice, and mountain climbing, but it's been a while). During the week I get into the gym. Other things...sometimes baking... Toll house cookies are good.. Wine tasting is fun, time with friends, movies, and all that. I'm not a big sports fan. The Superbowl and a few other games are about the only things I watch, but I do like the Olympics, cycling, and whatever strikes me at the time.
I'm a realistic guy that tends toward the 'glass is half full'. A positive outlook is usually better, right? I don't drink much, and I don't do drugs of any type, which is good because I donate blood a lot (I have desirable blood!).
I'd like to find a gal who has a good sense of humor, smart, and, hmm.... what else ya got?? Yeah- you like wearing jeans as well as a sexy dress. Fun is the name of the game. Just go with it and don't make drama, there's just no time for it. True?

Date someone special from Laguna Beach, United States. I am both career and life oriented. I like to keep fit by practicing yoga. Enjoy to bring home flowers, make dinner. life in full whether in the moment of excitement or just a simple moment. I am a bit old fashion in that I believe in opening doors and always when I leave and come home to a kiss and come back to a kiss.
Important things to me are: My Kids, God, Family, Friends. Maintaining a positive outlook to all and try to stay away from negativity. If you are a positive thinker then you know what I mean. If you believe and think negatively.... not interested. Contact me if you would like to chat and see if we can be a match to get off of match.

Meet a soulmate from Laguna Beach, United States. If it works between us, I will remember our first date and how you moved your hands. I will write you little notes, describing how you make my heart skip with words and just the right amount of body language--maybe the flint of a smile or a whisper in just the right place. For laughs, I will tell you about my weird childhood that included a pet bobcat. The fact is, I will freely give you my life.
When I'm in, I'm in. I'm loyal, passionate and communicative. I don't play the field, and I don't do casual.
The thing I’ve learned is I thrive on connection. I want chemistry, friendship, conversation and staying power. I want a new type of love that is deeper than before, more experienced and generous. I also know that we both need to make ourselves vulnerable (again) and it’s scary.
I want someone who is eager to shape her life in new ways, who reads, conquers crosswords and craves sushi as often as you crave Mexican. You drive fast, are fiercely independent yet relish complementary roles. You want and expect commitment because it’s the foundation for trust and partnership. Together, we encourage each other and happily fill needs. We pamper and confide and create adventure.
You are your own person, yet you’re not afraid to love and rely on me. You are creative and funny and wickedly smart. You are an outsider because you don’t like to be constrained, but you are faithful to honorable and true things. You communicate regularly because you have a lot to say. You are Cake’s short skirt, long jacket girl, with a mind like a diamond.
I am attracted to you because you DO NOT have everything figured out. I wrestle with issues all the time, and I'm amazed when other people don't.
That’s part of it. The other part is family, which is a significant fabric of my life. I’m a dad to three boys, 10, 13 and 15. I have them 50 percent of the time. So if you can't do the family thing for a while longer, I'm not your man. I was married a very long time, divorced for about four years. Some people boast that they like to jet off to Belize at a moment’s notice. That’s not me. It would be nice, sure, but more realistic is a long weekend in Santa Barbara.
I've been a writer most of my life and enjoy it immensely. Over the years, I've been a daily newspaper reporter and editor. Now, I'm a marketing and speech writer for a large technology company. I'm also writing short story fiction and a weekly newspaper column in my spare time. If you like to read, try typing "hintdiction" and you'll find me.
I like to live an eclectic, modest and meaningful life. I don't appreciate being labeled or pigeonholed. I'm not into partisan politics, preferring to judge issues or candidates on their own merits. I'm not religious but I do consider myself ethical and open to the possibility of the unknown.
But my life is not necessarily a PBS miniseries. Truth be told, I often prefer downtime: bodysurfing, sports, reading on the beach, speeding in my quirky classic car. I am very easy to entertain. I try to laugh freely and have fun, but I also enjoy being contemplative and quiet, which seems to be a dying art.
So like that cool, humble little bungalow in Laguna you've lusted after all these years, I'm on the market. It's a great value, I think, with character, good light, solid foundation and a face with a view. Plus, my home plays very original, infectious music: Beck, Moby, Massive Attack, The XX, Sea Wolf, Tom Waits, Morphine, Nine Inch Nails, Peter Murphy, Depeche Mode, Sarah Jaffe and many others. I'm your off-beat, genuine and reliable neighbor, someone you might underestimate at first but ultimately will never forget.

Meet people from Laguna Beach, United States. I'm a creative advertising executive who works and plays hard. I'm kind, generous, funny and honest. I enjoy vodka martinis up with olives, good wine, great food, dinner with friends, sunsets (yes, really), dancing, and riding my motorcycle on the street and at the track. I run daily and practice yoga 3 to 4 times a week.
I'm seeking a woman who wants to be treated well by a man. Sorry girls, but I'm not that "bad boy" and I won't treat you poorly. I'm a romantic and I enjoy the simple pleasure of sharing an evening (or weekend) with a beautiful, interesting woman.
As I said, I'm honest. I'm not interested in one-night-stands nor am I expecting a long term commitment right from the start (lets see what develops). I'm seeking a like minded and equally honest woman. No games, no drama, just mutual enjoyment of this amazing life.
