Date someone special from California, United States. Hi I'm Dan and I'm a native Californian, having either lived in the Southland or the S.F. Bay Area all my life, and I can't imagine living anywhere else really. I've been single all my life and the reasons for that are numerous and complicated, and it's not how I expected or hoped things would go, but I still hope to find that special someone and live "happily ever after", even at this late stage of my life. It's really important for me to find someone I'm deeply connected to. I learned recently that my sister's husband had been cheating on her and, aside from the obvious anger I feel, I am completely perplexed and disappointed by the behavior of some people. I would hope such a thing would never happen to me and would myself not even think of it. Though not religious, I have a strong sense of ethics and moral values. I'm one of the few people who would bring a shopping cart back to the designated rack, as I think doing even the littlest things have a positive influence on others (plus I believe in The Golden Rule, since I had my car dinged once by a runaway cart that someone thoughtlessly left in a parking space).
I haven't had much dating experience in proportion to life experience, so I need someone who is patient and can overlook my awkwardness and initial shyness. I was somewhat sheltered as a youth and always had my head in books. I achieved more in academics that other facets of my life and attended Cal Berkeley for awhile, before earning my degree elsewhere. But it was my experience at Cal that molded much of what I am today. Although I don't agree with all tenets of liberalism, I strongly believe in social justice, human rights, and environmentalism. I also have always loved animals and at one time was studying for a career in biology.
As it turned out, my entire career has revolved around computers and I currently am a software developer in the healthcare industry. Because I enjoy learning new things all the time, I've had numerous hobbies, but the ones that have endured for most of my life are fencing, history, travel, and movies. Fencing, which I've done since college, keeps me physically fit. I also like to keep abreast of current and world events, so I read a lot. Other interests I've had in the past include ballroom dancing, foreign languages, guitar, and writing.
There aren't any specific physical traits I'm looking for in a woman. I'm looking more at what she says and thinks. That you've managed to even read this far indicates at least some level of interest, and that's attractive in itself. Some of the characteristics I value are open-mindedness, intelligence, humility, and honesty. I'd like to develop a friendship and get to know someone well before taking a relationship to a more intimate level.date.
Meet men and women from Laguna Hills, United States. I am mostly in blue jeans and T shirts, my friends tell me I am very easy going and that I am a glass half full / Type B personality. I enjoy getting spiffied up for a night out at the sushi bar or a great steak,or a relaxing evening cooking/BBQ-ing something different with friends. I have been in Manufacturing for most of my life and really enjoy creating things,whether welding at work or fixing things up around the house. I am told I have a great sense of humor even if it's at my expense.
I'm looking for a relationship where we can stretch and grow together and one where we both have something to bring to the relationship,someone who is able to share her feelings, needs and wants. I'm also interested in someone who is a Christian. I would like someone who is balanced in life and work. So drop me a line or do the wink thing and let's see what happens. Thanks for par-oozing.......good luck in your search God Bless
Date single man from Laguna Hills, United States. I am honest and have high morals. If you are prone to being unfaithful and lack morals, than we would not fit. I believe in Karma and so I will always try to do the right thing. Just turned 55 and I was in a LTR with someone that I respect and have the highest regards for. She was my best friend, lover and a wonderful person. We have moved on but I still wish her the best. I am looking for someone that has also shared this kind of relationship. I feel that I have a lot to give and although she was not my life partner, I know that one exists. I love being in love with a woman. I am not codependent, I simply want to share life with a beautiful woman. A beautiful woman is mentally, physically and spiritually together and has that inner glow. It shows in her face, her smile and her eyes. I miss not being with someone I am physically and mentally connected to. I am not a CA native but have lived here years. I have worked all over the country and prefer woman with Midwest values and Western casualness. I like woman that can wear jeans, look healthy and who are comfortable with themselves. We are growing older and if we get a wrinkle it is not the end of the world. I look in the eyes of my lover and see her as the girl she really is. I do not like high maintenance woman. If you have a disorder from having to shop every day and spend more than you earn then we would not be a match. I have helped raise a boy and two girls in my life but do not have children. I can appreciate that you may and they are the love of your life. I hope that you have prepared them for life and they are trying to succeed on their own. I am sure you are looking forward to being a grandmother and it will be an exciting time I would like to share. I am all for family and would like to be part of yours. I have a love for animals but there is a difference between a loving pet and having a pet you think is your child. I do not date these kind of woman. Take my advice and pay more attention to your man, it will be more rewarding. I have worked hard in my career and hopefully you have too. I have been successful as an engineering consultant and am financially secure and it is not my intention to work myself to the grave. Many colleagues have no identity other than their job. I believe this is why many of you are here, as your children have grown and you had lost your relationship with your husband as his job was most important. I am the opposite and careers should be in balance, so lets enjoy life while we can. I also have an MBA and have analyzed some numbers. The fact is woman outlive their partners by 20 years and already many of my friends have started passing away. My parents are in their late 80's and are still doing very well with the assistance I provide. You should be looking at your partners gene pool and not his age. I am healthy and plan on being around for a long time and am looking for a healthy partner with incredible genes as well. I still feel that intimacy is important in a relationship and do not require a little blue pill. If you are timid, not spontaneous, not willing to get your hair messed and your lipstick smudged then we would not be a match. I have always dated woman that were athletic, coordinated and physically attractive. We shared things like tennis, swimming, skiing, scuba diving, working out, etc. So at 55 I may have slowed down some but am still very active. If you never were an active person then I doubt we would be a match. Let's stay active, find mutual interests and feel alive. If you are not willing to take a chance and go all in then you would be wasting our time. My intentions are to find that someone I have described and to get on with our lives together, the sooner the better. I wish those of you reading this all the best and I look forward to meeting those that think I may be the right guy for them. Send me a note and say hello.
Meet men and women from Laguna Hills, United States. I enjoy good conversation and companionship. I've been told I am a good listener. I appreciate a person that tells me straight, good bad or indifferent. Love to laugh and try to make others laugh. Looking to share life experiences with someone special.
Date someone special from United States. I heard that you could come on here with any kind of match in mind so I thought I’d give it a try. Though I always wanted to start my own family, I Think I’ve finally come to the conclusion that It’s too late for me. I did spend 15 yrs. raising 3 stepsons, 1 step daughter, so I have some idea what it’s like. I helped guide them through many troubles and they’re all doing fairly well now and would do most anything for me, but it’s still not the same as having my own,since the youngest was already 10 when I arrived. How am I doing after all that you wonder? Well I did reluctantly decide to let an investment property go cheap, ouch! when I determined that the profits I had planned just wouldn’t be there with the economy having been sabotaged. At this point I’d be happy to just get with someone who would like to live in a life style that has some semblance of Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness in a peaceful setting where I could regenerate my own artwork and perform any kind of personal assistance needed by anyone of any age. I’m a very agreeable companion in many ways, would make a great househusband (don’t mind cleaning house, etc.) Or I can, and have been a great caretaker or personal assistant. Here’s some excerpts from bio and an online page: I am a lifelong Southern Californian with experience both in working with precision materials and in work involving more physically demanding assignments...Throughout the years I’ve also kept an ongoing avocation in intricate art and miniatures, including the buying and selling of collectibles, while also gaining experience in home improvement, renovation and caretaker-sentry work for private individuals, including my older brother who was a ceramic tile and flooring contractor. I have over twenty years experience in all aspects of long term home care (lg.and sm. properties) including pet care, AKC breeding, along with performing secretarial duties and providing personal assistance to disabled adults. Eight years in Big Bear Valley toughened me up some and I still work out to stay fit and healthy. I have also had work in transcribing and editing legal and health material for individuals. During my time as assistant to an older investor, who was disabled, I was overseer of all property renovations, purchasing of materials, and credit monitoring. I have always been an advocate for the disabled and the elderly.At this time I am living with and assisting my elderly mother in any way I can.……Something from 2 yrs ago: I’m a simple fellow with a simple life. No complications, no stress, no strife. Granted, I did run away with the circus for a year, wound up in a Japanese commercial, appeared in shows with world record holders. But I’m really a homebody: I do my aerobics and exercise, etc. at home. I’m always thinking of the funny side of things and write down humorous essays whenever I can. I’m very sexual but have never been promiscuous. Haven’t had but a handful of girlfriends, (not into men) Last one couldn’t stand it out here in Boonies so left to be with her grown children, ironic ’cause I got the house for them. Have you heard the true story of the mountain gorilla Titus? Well, mine is in some ways the same only instead of the highest coldest mountain it’s the hot, barren high desert. In his case he waited until all but the very faithful and dedicated wandered down and away. In my case, though it took a few years, I found that there were none dedicated enough to stay. Not that I blame them, who’d want to be out there unless they had good reason. I’m very open to starting anew, My elders have all lived active lives into their 90’s, mom still bowls regularly, Uncle had a novel published, I’m in great shape and eager to share.
