Meet someone special from United States. I'm a quiet and private person until I get to know you. I like my privacy. A few contradictions of my life, I like neatness but can really make a mess. I liked having a pool but rarely swam in it. I am a creature of habit but doing things I have never done before gives me a gives me a rush. Public display of affection is a good thing as are companionable silences.
I am constant and fix my devotion to one person and my family. I am ardent in my love, idealistic and capable of deep loyalties thru no uncertain terms. I am passionate and compassionate. I live in the present, sometimes looking into the past with an eye to the future.
Most of my life has been spent working to provide a comfortable lifestyle for my family. Much of it helping to raise two beautiful daughters. Now being single and retired. I am looking for a companion to share new experiences with. Dinner, dancing, movies, walking, camping, travel, whatever, did I say whatever ? Someone looking to build and maintain a partnership based on friendship and mutual admiration. Someone who knows and lives as if life is fun, relationships are serious. I am looking for a real life partner, my best friend. Someone who cares enough to try to understand me, you don't always have to like or agree but are willing to stretch to understand it. I want someone who is emotionally available and can communicate on that level. Someone to play with all day then at night to be able to talk about why lavender roses are fragrant and white ones aren't.
I am in the process of making the move to the desert. So while my home town is in Northern California I will be in the desert in about 6 months.
So if I wink it's okay, I like you. Really !

Date people from United States. I am a vulnerable, worthy and responsible man. I am romantic and passionate. I need a friend and a lover. I am interested in a long term relationship. A good laugh is just as important as a kiss or a caress. I love intelligent, insightfull women. My grandmothers and my mother were very wise women.
Hopefully this person would be secure enough in herself to understand that communication, honesty , intimacy and sincerity are essential for a relationship.
An ideal partner could do any of the following, (but not limited to) ride a bike in the sun; go to the gymn with me sometimes; maybe go camping ; perhaps go out on the water on a kayak. I love the feeling of gliding on the water ,having the sun warm me while getting some exercise. I would like someone who would not mind going to a soccer match once in a while as I attend club, college ,and professional soccer matches. If you don't like soccer, I can go with the guys.
I have been told that I look very macho, perhaps severe,serious, rough and tough. Appearances may seem true, once you get beyond the exterior, which, by the way, I cannot do much about, I am a loving, passionate person. I have been told that I have a great capacity to love. If the love bug bites, I will shower you with my love. I have learned from the past that I need to express my feelings. I am not afraid to be demonstrative with my love: I kiss my 90 year old father; I kiss my 23 year old, stud son; I kiss and hug my sweet, beautiful daughter, and hug and wrestle with my little nephews, and I tell each one how much I love them as often as I can. I fancy myself as having a good sense of humour as I will say all kinds of silly things to elicit laughter. Laughing is very important in my family. Read my profile and take a chance on romance.

Meet a soulmate from United States. I was born and raised in San Francisco and moved to Walnut Creek when there was nothing much here but a Denny's and L'Virage. I raised my two great children there, and had a successful business as a Graduate Gemologist and jeweler. Now I do a little of that on the side and am taking interesting classes for enrichment and doing some tutoring which I enjoy. I'm pretty curious about a lot of things and love learning something new, or exploring either new subjects or places. People consider me an attractive (some say beautiful) intelligent, friendly, interesting and yet kind and very good-hearted. I am a woman who has a very positive outlook on life and a good sense of humor. I've had my share of losses and know I've grown stronger because of them. The glass is always half-full, as they say, and there is always something new and interesting and fun on the horizon. I look a lot younger than I really am. Perhaps I could lose a few and working on it, but I am well-proportioned. Family, friends and my Christian faith are important to me. I guess I am intellectually an explorer but at heart, a tender-of-the-hearth-and-home, enjoying cooking, entertaining, caring for my home and garden. Politically, I am moderately conservative.
I am looking for a friend, companion, lover where we can share our interests, companionship, good conversation, interesting journeys, both near and far, as we develop a stable, trusting, mutually satisfying and supportive, and hopefully, a long term relationship. I am interested in a man of intelligence, integrity, and regard for others. Mutual respect and trust is very important, as well as growing and learning together, and, enjoying those wonderful moments alone.

Date a woman from United States. I'm just Looking to see whats out there. Looking to meet friends and see if anything else may accrue. Not in a any rush. I Love going to the Movies. Taking short spontaneous trips and travelling afar for long vacations.

Meet someone special from Martinez, United States. Well, where do I begin. I am a single woman and have never been married. I haven't done the bar scene since college and opportunities to meet men are vastly diminishing working in a mostly female profession. I am ready to really think about meeting someone to share the rest of my life doing all the fun things I have waited to do for so long. I would love to travel and go hiking and out to romantic dinners and on cruises and camping and sailing and fishing and well, just about anything that is more fun to do with someone you care about and love to have fun with. Day to day life is also more interesting with someone you want to be with, isn't it? I am a very assertive, intelligent and funny woman - a real turnoff to many men. I always wonder how very successful, career oriented woman find their matches? Maybe on Match.com! If you are looking for an adoring, sweet young thing, who will never disagree with you or challenge you on an issue or want to discuss politics and the war in Iraq - then stop reading and run for the hills. I will keep you interested, amused, active and sometimes bewildered. I am a very caring and generous person and would love to learn more about you. I am a dichotomy. I love Disneyland and Yosemite, Charles Dickens and JK Rowling, Steak and Tofu, Big Band Music and Rock n Roll. It really depends on the day of the week and my mood. You will find a very loyal, trustworthy, dependable and caring partner. I love beer and hot dogs, baseball on a sunny day, being in, on or under water - Pisces you know - and hot, sunny days laying on a raft on a lake. I am very tall and proud of it - I wasn't always but have learned that it is really a gift. I prefer men about my height because I think it makes them less self conscious but you decide. I'm looking for a man who is successful, intelligent, honest, fairly goodlooking, has a good sense of humor and wants to meet his match. Are you that man? Let's give it try.
