Date single man from California, United States. I love family life, good friends and mentoring.
I have travelled extensively overseas and in North America over the years (and still do on a more 'measured' scale).
I would enjoy travels more today if I could share the experience with the Lady in my life.
While I just turned 65, I don't feel, look nor act my age and have no hang-up about the "big six 'O'.
I love to prank friends and have a pleasant sense of humor.
I am most definitely a one woman man, loyal and very caring. I hope to meet and get close to someone with the same ethics and principles I cherish. I am a romantic and love to love. I am very affectionate and enjoy catering to my special Lady.
Listening to light music with the fire place on, sharing a nice bottle of wine and cuddling up with the one I care for and love ... describes a dream evening at home.
Mutual thoughtfulness, honesty, care, respect and sensitivity are most important to me. I seek someone who appreciates the same values and is prepared to live life to its fullest in a balanced fashion.
Yes, most of us have (some) baggage. Key however is what one learns from these experiences including others' poor judgement, mistakes and questionable choices ... to become a yet better person, partner, friend, lover and parent.
I am blessed to be surrounded by close friends, great business colleagues and family members and have a superb relationhip with my 3 children and 2 step-children.
I am very proud of each of their accomplishments and while I miss the two who reside in New England, the other 3 live nearby and we see and spend time together often.
I sense there is someone out there I will soon meet and connect with. A special lady who appreciates my qualities, accepts me for who I am. In spite of past disappointments and hurt in a long marriage, I am a very positive individual prepared to allow myself to become close, vulnerable and open to the right Lady in my life.
This Match.com concept is totally new to me and, I must admit, I feel a bit awkward opening up to the world at large.
I am convinced that, by being honest and true, I will have the chance to meet that special someone.
It all starts with getting acquainted, forming a friendship and, who knows, a yet deeper connection may well develop.
What you see and read is what you get, no pretence, no embelishment, simply me.
Meet a man from California, United States. I would like to meet someone that I can enjoy being with, and not having any expectations. I want a person that I can help out for their time with me and be open minded to our relationship. I am financially stable and want to enjoy my life.
Date single man from California, United States. I'm rather unconventional. Have done a lot of things; taught college, had my own business, was captain of a Coast Guard cutter, a pilot, and a cop. I take classes continually and have a lot of interests.
Love real people, interesting characters, cycling, hunting ,fishing, building things, and cooking. Also love jazz, bluegrass, ethnic festivals, dogs, and learning to do things the right way. Have no interest in professional sports---(OK, maybe some football).
I'm spontaneous, adventurous, imaginative, and artistic, so I'm very visual. In fact, I'm a graphic designer and commercial photographer, although I'm doing something else at present. In friends, I want quality rather than quantity; with emphasis on sincerity, truthfulness, loyalty and getting an honest answer to an honest question. Am not a neat freak.
Thoroughly enjoy George Carlin, WC Fields, Prairie Home Companion, Jonathon Winters, Bill Cosby, Eddie Izzard, and Monty Python. Loved Tuscany and being out in weather with fabulous skies and clouds. Generally prefer the desert and seashore to the mountains. Am absolutely not a couch potato but am fond of some indoor activities.
Politically conservative--even very conservative. Reagan was my guy. Am a Charismatic Christian and listen to Joyce Myers, Joel Osteen, and others where the Word is good and eminently practical. II Corinthians 6:14 is bottom line for me.
You still there? Terrific! Sorry this is a little eclectic, but it gets better, and if not, at least it gets shorter.
Love to read, especially spy novels that are historically accurate and most anything that is well written. I write some myself and I'd like to do more. Scratch poetry. I particularly enjoy watching a master of just about any subject or endeavor.
Appreciate confident women, but eschew controllers. Cannot stand poor spelling or grammar, people who say "like"and "awesome" far too often and misuse "goes" and "went" for "says" and "said". It drives me nuts when someone extends their thumb and little finger to show me what they said on the phone. This adds something to the conversation?
Dislike Liberalism, political correctness,"it's just our policy" and other similarly mindless philosophies. Ditto people with hidden agendas, manipulators, and virtually all TV except History, Discovery, Food, and A and E Channels. I can't even begin to understand why someone would like NASCAR. Don't like the ballet...I have trouble with the subtitles. On the other hand, I have all the Marcel Marceau albums.
Looking good is greatly appreciated, but please, no hair and nails parlor queens, women who can't fix anything themselves, and those who make a big deal out of the toilet seat being up or down--if I can pick it up, she can put it down.
All that being said, (it's a lot, I know), in fairness I'm willing to put some of these things out on the table. On the other hand I'm really quite a funny guy, (I've designed a whole line of greeting cards). I'm affectionate, considerate, likable and honest. Like awesome, right?
Totally.
Your turn.

Date young girl from California, United States. hey, I am looking for that person out there who has drive and motivation. someone who is respectful and endearing, who love to laugh and make others laugh. laughter in my book is number one. I am kind of a book worm and i am very shy but warm up to people quite fast and i like that in a guy. its fun to see a guy who doesn't mind going out for a casual dinner every once in a while. family and morals are very important and should be high priority in my type of guy. I would find it quite nice to just be able to relax and have fun with an easygoing and carefree person.
Meet young girl from California, United States. Hi,
My name is Kaylin. I'm currently a full time 3rd year student and musician in college. I have plans on transferring and on getting bachelors degrees in Music Performance, Music Education, and Master's Conducting..
I love traveling and I have been to Europe and all over the U.S.
One of my favorite beaches is Laguna Beach, and i think that the sunsets are to die for. I love hiking, ice skating, camping and just being outdoors in general.. I take a camping trip at least every summer, and i love going to the lake. I tried cliff-jumping for the first time last summer and it was probably the most exhilarating things i've ever done, mostly because i'm afraid of heights. But as you can see, those types of things never hold me back from having some fun, I'm always willing to try new things (: My favorite sports are Soccer, Basketball, Baseball, and Hockey. My Sister plays soccer, and my grandfather played for a professional team in the Netherlands back in the day.. My mom and dad played basketball, so most of my family are athletes. I'm obsessed with driving and cars so my favorite sports car is any type of Lamborghini... I also love Jet Skiing, and would love to learn how to snowboard (:
I think i would say that i have the best of both worlds since my mom's family is from the Netherlands, but I also have family that live in the south(literally). Its a crazy mix, but i love it. I'm going to be spending thanksgiving with them in Mobile, Alabama this fall, so i'm excited! I am a bit of a country girl since i love the outdoors so much, so I'm not worried about being in the middle of nowhere..
Once you get to know me, i'm a very open, genuine kind of girl, but also a direct, straight foward, medium paced person when it comes to serious matters, especially relationships.
I'm mostly looking for something thats light at first to grow into something deep and if that opportunity for a serious relationship comes up, and I feel like its right, I'm not going to pass that up.. The goal is to find someone to potentially spend the rest of my life with, otherwise i wouldnt be here :)
Summer is my more mellow time of the year, however, during the fall and especially spring semesters I'm usually very packed during the week so finding time to date or meet people is really difficult. I try to get out more on weekends or days off, however, i find myself doing a lot on my own.. I'm always willing to meet new people so if you want to get to know me or are interested just send a wink or email! :)

Meet single girl from California, United States. I'm Jumping in with 2 fees, let's give this a shot.
I am looking for a man who is strong, driven, and interesting. A man who is comfortable in his own skin and can be his own person. I like someone who can challenge me and make me a better person on a daily basis. I like someone who is up for a good time and can carry on a decent conversation. I'm sarcastic so someone who can handle a strong but funny sense of humor is always a plus. I like men who are consistent in their efforts and aren't shy to open a car door every once in a while.
While I enjoy a routine and stability that can get boring a little spontaneity is always fun and keeps a relationship interesting.
If you have any questions or would like to talk feel free to e-mail me!

Meet people from California, United States. I'm a girl that loves to laugh and make others laugh at the same time. I have been described as serious, in the way that I know what I want in life and I don't stop till I get it.
Family is very important to me, I have three nieces and they mean the world to me. One smile from any of them can make my day!
I'm a mathematics education major with only one class remaining for my degree (yes, that does make me a math geek, but I promise that I have never owned suspenders nor have I ever owned a pocket protector, haha). Helping others learn and thrive is important to me. Currently I'm tutoring three kids and it is very rewarding to see how much they are improving in their understanding.
I'm looking for someone who puts others ahead of themselves (of course, not all the time). Someone who also loves to live life and laugh often! It would be nice if that person also has a sweet tooth since I love to bake and make new things in the kitchen.
