Date men and women from United States / California / Palos Verdes Estates - page 2

Date someone special from Palos Verdes Estates, United States. Here's the thing; I am done messing around. I have been divorced for over a decade, and when my kids were at home I didn't care about being in relationship because I am a very involved father and that kept me busy. Now my youngest is graduating. My plan is to maintain homes in Scottsdale (close to family) and the LA area (the weather is better, imaginary god knows) and do a lot of traveling. I am looking for a partner to travel with, have fun with, and yes, support and be supported by. The good news is that my business is successful and I have the money thing covered. The bad news is that, yes it's true, money can't buy happiness. I want a wonderful, sexy, smart, funny, sophisticated, unconventional, natural woman to share our lives and bring each other joy. Simple. Okay, so not so simple or I wouldn't be on this site, but at least in concept!

Meet men and women from Palos Verdes Estates, United States. People describe me as being quiet and reserved with a good sense of humor. When I'm comfortable with someone I have no problem expressing myself or showing an extroverted side. I'm romantic and enjoy surprising my partner with an unexpected date night.
I love my family and I always consider how my decisions will affect them. I have to be honest....I do look for their approval. I like my job and the people I work with......my job doesn't define who I am but it is important to me.
I want to find a woman who will help me learn new things about myself, travel with me and support me.....I want to share my experiences, my time and a great bottle if wine with her. Hope that doesn't sound too trivial.....I just want to share all things big & small.

Date a soulmate from Palos Verdes Estates, United States. I enjoy my career and work very hard at it, but always try to leave plenty of time for adventure, new and old. Being a P/T desk jockey, I look forward to getting outdoors. I love to surf, ski, hike, climb, backpack, and bike, and have traveled far and wide in search of new adventures y la ola perfecta. Last continent left to surf is S. America [well two if you actually consider Antarctica surfable!!], still have more than a few mountain ranges left to explore, too. Looking forward to surfing and skiing in Chile well before the sixzero. Also luv a good game of tennis, softball or v-ball. I'm a sixth generation Californian, fifth generation Angeleno, sometimes Episcopalian, enjoy reading up on California and Nevada history.
Over the years I've had a half dozen photos published in surf magazines, luv searching for new vistas. The surfing and ocean pictures were taken in the Mentawai Islands off Sumatra, while the skiing pics [my friend Barry took most of the shots - I shot him doing his best imitations of a Stein Eriksen reverse shoulder turn] were taken on a spring randonnee tour to Sardine Canyon in the E. Sierra overlooking Owens Valley - we climbed to over 12,000' , then enjoyed an over 4,000' descent on primo corn snow, followed by a short bushwhack, which only made the green oil cans taste better!! Re: The packframe stabilizers/antennas wouldn't stay put, but just as well, that way the aliens could tell me where to turn so as to avoid the snowsnakes!! One of the top runs of my life, for sure.
Enjoy fine dining to holes in the wall to dive pubs, luv learning to cook new dishes at home, making pies from fruit off our apple & apricot trees, brewing limoncello from our lemon tree. Wine tasting and good art shows sure are fun, as is figuring out which grape juice best complements which food.
Love my 12 year old daughter and all my family. I've been blessed with 3 great sisters, plus a great extended family and friends worldwide. My daughter wants to see me have another extraordinary relationship (b-cancer took my best friend, her p/t step-mom away last year), overflowing with love and devotion, and I want that too!
My best friend/partner/teammate would be adventurous, active, fit, athletic, passionate, have a wild streak, smart, witty, multi-dimensional, enjoy the outdoors, attractive inside and out, understated, enjoy both fine and simple things, but prefer a simpler life, feel at ease in most any circumstance, honest and trustworthy. Bonus points to keen skiers, hikers, surfers, climbers, backpackers, or photographers. Double bonus points if you know some of these words: randonnee, corn, cornice, barrel, fade, bracket, cutback, freefall, huck, corduroy, pow, couloir, reef inspection, sideslip, acolyte, cross-step, kneelo, slab, chock, belay, cam. Triple bonus points if you know all those words. HINT: Many words overlap 2 activities. Looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks for visiting my profile. Give me a shout!

Date a soulmate from Palos Verdes Estates, United States. THE SECRET OF YOUR BEAUTY.
AND THE MYSTERY OF YOUR SOUL.
I'VE BEEN SEARCHING FOR IN EVERYONE I MEET,
AND THE TIMES I'VE BEEN MISTAKEN,
I'TS IMPOSSIBLE TO TELL
I KNOW YOU'RE OUT THERE SOMEWHERE,
SOMEWHERE YOU CAN HEAR MY VOICE
I KNOW I'LL FIND YOU SOMEHOW...
The Moody Blues
Are you looking for someone that when they hold you in their arms, you feel warm, secure, comfortable, and connected to your heart and soul? Someone with whom you can gaze into their eyes, and listen to their voice forever? That may sound mushy, but that is what you will find in me, and that I am hoping to find in you. I am a romantic man, permanently, not just in the first few months. I even taught courses and seminars on the subject:)
I do want you to know that I want a committed relationship, moving toward a committed, loving marriage. I do have lots of free time on my hands and would love to meet a friendly, active, happy, attractive, and loving woman. I am looking for a strong and resiliant woman so we can meet and conquer the challenges of this wonderful life together. At the end of the day, I'm looking for a close, intimate relationship and companion.
I am a very good man; no "bad boy" here. If you are still seeking a mysterious bad boy that you can fix, that is not me. I am the man that many women say they are looking for, yet their emotions may steer them elsewhere. Integrity and good character are very important to me; I daily strive to be the very best person I can be. I'm honest, very happy and fun loving(even given the circumstances) warm, loving, kind,affectionate, grateful, active, intelligent and attractive. I am very good at communicating, an excellent listener(I'd better be), and believe that effectively resolving conflicts contribute towards building understanding and strengthening a relationship.
I am a very responsible, courteous gentleman. I feel just as comfortabe in a suit and tie as in jeans. I am postitive, optomistic, romantic and sentimental. I am very adventurous and am a great travel companion.
I really do wish to find a wonderful, strong woman with similar qualities and integrity to share the rest of my exciting life with, as a best friend and companion.
"YOU GOTTA GROW,
YOU GOTTA REMEMBER YOUR MISTAKES,
YOU GOTTA DIE A LITTLE EVERY DAY,
JUST TO STAY AWAKE.
WHEN YOU BELIEVE THERE'S A MOUNTAIN
YOU CAN CLIMB,
AND IF YOU GET IT WRONG,
YOU'LL GET IT RIGHT NEXT TIME."
Gerry Rafferty

Meet someone special from Palos Verdes Estates, United States. Driven, European bred, confident, insightful, eternal learner, art lover, well traveled, romantic, no quitter, loyal, dependable, genuine, spontaneous, humorous, explorer, compassionate, sensual. There's more. I'm not an elitist but I do like the finer things life has to offer. I have zero based expectations but I do appreciate beauty and the effort that goes into maintaining it. I like roughing it but the occasional 5 star resort is always a welcome diversion. And of course, I'm here to find THE eternal love affair.
Looking for one lovely, emotionally available, accomplished, sensual lady for friendship, romance, love, and potential long term commitment. Love children of all ages. Open to all ethnicities.

Date a man from United States. An accomplished professional and sincere gentleman. Blue eyes, blond hair -- a typical Californian. My hair is thinning out, which has to do with my fair, Northern European ancestry. But then, there are so many ways a man can be stylish. In addition to my regular job, I'm also a writer and a sports enthusiast -- actively, not in the couch-potato sense. I attended USC and am a devoted fan. What can I say? I have two sons who are very important to me. I enjoy spending time with them when possible. My youngest just graduated high school and is now off to college. I'm a family-oriented person and being on good terms with family is very important to me.
I'm not into playing games. I understand that this finding a "soulmate" is tricky stuff. However, I will say this, I do believe in love -- and that it's possible to fall in love at any stage of one's life. I'm definitely a romantic. There is also that matter of chemistry. I suppose it has a lot to do with appearances -- some people simply appeal to you. That's understandable, and something we all have to acknowledge. So I'm not hurt if it's not there for you, and I trust you won't be hurt if it's not there for me. To pretend it is, when it isn't is probably the worst thing one can do. But there is a lot to be said for taking the time to decide wisely. After all, some people can grow on you I suppose.
I wish you the very best of luck in finding your match.If you must know -- She is not intimidated by intellectual conversation. She is not a tease or a princess wearing a tiara. Midwestern values are all right with me. She has a bright sense of humor, is reasonably fit, and takes pride in her appearance. She is in control of her life, including her diet, and particularly her money. She is intelligent and insightful about the human condition, and sophisticated, but also someone who is uninhibited and able to indulge in the spontaneous moment. Together, we might enjoy a glass of wine as the sun slips slowly into the sea, or a slow dance beneath the stars. Naturally, she is a friend and a lover, and focused on the important things in life. We simply fit.

Meet someone special from Palos Verdes Estates, United States. Life is an adventure and you have to stay open all the time. I think a good sense of humor is very important ! I've lived a happy and unique route in life and want to find someone special to share it with. I want to give back to the world and feel, two can be greater than one. I am looking for a long term relationship and think that commitment is very important. I also think just having fun , and
a sense of humor about yourself and the world are must needed traits. I write music for a living so I've been mixed up with all types of interesting people and seen how some life styles make it and some don't.
When you’re giving, your not giving to the other person: you’re giving to the relationship. And if you realize that you are in the relationship just as the other person is, then it becomes life building, a life fostering and enriching experience, not an impoverishment because you’re giving to somebody else.
This is the challenge of a relationship. What a beautiful thing is a life together as growing personalities, each helping the other to flower. It’s a wonderful moment when two people can make the decision to be something quite astonishing and unexpected.
Hope to meet you soon.

Date single man from California, United States. I am fortunate in many ways and have relatively little baggage, few disappointments and I enjoy a fulfilling life. I seek that hard to find special woman with whom to share it all and to create shared interests, experiences and a new life. Professionally I am a physician, researcher, lecturer and professor at a prominent university. I was raised by great parents, well educated, successful at most things, as well as having enjoyed the good fortune of friends, mentors, family and had many wonderful experiences and adventures. At this stage of my life I finally enjoy much freedom (good health, free time, few family demands, many opportunities and financial security). I love to travel and to pursue many diverse interests beyond medicine. I have attained or surpassed most of my professional and financial ambitions.... so I now seek personal fulfillments and companionship.
I most enjoy the accomplishments of others with whom I have affection, interest, interaction and influence, including my remarkable grown children.
I am active in my community and most appealing to me are people with a good heart, generous, open minded, forthright, communicative, not constrained by fear and who love adventure, athletics, travel and creativity. I have seen much of the world and continue to have frequent opportunities for international travel as I lecture and consult worldwide and I have a second home in Italy.
Most consider me to be youthful, handsome, athletic, inquisitive, confident, independent, adventurous, responsible, passionate, insightful and energetic. Athletics has been a life long passion and is part of my daily routine (biking, kayaking, gym, swimming, snowboarding, triathelons, scuba, rollerblading, etc).
I also enjoy art, music and decorating, teaching, good food and diversity (people, cultures, foods, ideas). I try to live life to it’s full and would like to again share it with someone special. As a pediatrician I also enjoy kids, but doubt that I will have more. However, I am not every one's cup of tea.
The best dates are those with a woman who captivates you. The place, attire or activity are all secondary. The hallmark is mutual attraction, anticipation, respect and chemistry as well as good communication and learning from each other. There are smiles, laughter, much eye contact and even touching.
I can not define the ideal relationship, but it must be associated with mutual satisfaction, fond anticipations, joy, smiles, laughter, shared perspectives as well as intellectual, spiritual and emotional strength. The relationship should generate strength, calm and confidence when facing life's challenges. If I knew the formula to bring all that about I probably would not be on this match service. If you know the secret....please teach me!
People differ in ways that I never imagined, but lasting relationships seem to be those with shared values and interests. I seek a woman who is insightful and capable of communicating and sharing a future. I am not sure what she will look like, but I must perceive her to be attractive, poised, intelligent, insightful, confident, multi-dimensional, communicative, mature and capable of being my soul mate. Ultimately I only seek a woman who gets who I am and appreciates me and visa versa for me.
She should be emotionally available, optimistic, warm, feminine, sensitive, adventurous, well traveled, tolerant, active and fit. I am fascinated by intelligent and insightful women who have an active and creative mind, combined with the ability to express feelings and thoughts honestly. I also seek someone who is well educated enjoys travel and enjoys adventure. Finally she should be well grounded with strong personal and family values, avoid premature judgements, and see life as a glass more than half full...yet appreciates life without a sense of entitlement! It is a tall order!

Meet someone special from United States. I want to share the gifts of living life wholeheartedly, the mysteries of loving deeply unfolding. I am a young spirit in a well-toned, athletic body with an affectionate heart and a well-honed intellect. I love eating exotic foods, hiking, cooking a meal, swimming to treat and surprise that one person. hearing birds in the morning, interacting with little ones and listening to all kinds of soulful music. I am old enough to know what I like and young enough to try something new! As a therapist, teacher, and author, I enjoy seeing students and clients come alive with new discoveries about themselves and the world around them. My curiosity is piqued by both art and science. I love discovering and photographing unique design in natural and man-made places, arranging flowers, composing omelets, assimilating the latest health news, and analyzing current events. I have worked and traveled to many far off places the summer solstice in Machu Picchu, the overland route to the orient, ten years exploring, living and working in the Hawaiian islands . I look forward to visiting my daughter and sharing the beauty of Paris and France with you. I would like to share the winter in one of Alberta’s cast les, and summer months in the Grand Canyon with you. For me that spark of joy and delight in the moment is never far away my wish is to share many simple moments of pleasure and contentment with my woman. I am certain that the age old saying "The best is yet to come!".
You are bright, honest, curious and comfortable in your own skin. You have an open heart, a healthy body, a good sense of humor and feel fulfilled in your life. You are looking for a committed partnership with a woman who is capable of receiving and returning your love. You can handle the occasional uncomfortable moments that sometimes accompany the discovery differences of opinion with equanimity and because we share the same basic values. We have enough differences for a stimulating discussion and enough in common to develop a rich and deep connection.
I look forward to spending evenings with you sitting by a fire with a glass of wine and sharing our day or watching a game and trading foot rubs. We have a great time together hiking the local trails or walking the beach in search of shells listening to the waves breaking and rushing to the shore. We continually discover the pleasure of our private sanctuary, coming home to each other and ourselves.
You suspect, like I do, that the "Best is yet to come!"
