Date single man from California, United States. Dating’s not my way, y’know – all my relationships have grown out of established friendships. I like being surprised by romance – I’m not so sure about this goin’ out a-huntin’ for it idea. Bear with me.
I’m omg 60 years old, but I lucked out: I’m pretty much as fit as I’ve ever been, I’m still active and curious, still exploring and learning. I walk a lot, ride my bike a lot, take the stairs, run, do yoga. Read. Write. I love extended speculative conversation.
I’m musical: I sing and play guitar. I’m an inept but enthusiastic ballroom dancer. I’m a foodie – I love wine, I like to cook and entertain. (On a small scale these days: I live in a cottage.) I love reading aloud – if you hate being read to, it will become a Relationship Issue – just sayin’. I like being in stage plays, though my work doesn’t allow for it much. Love European travel. Am perennially whittling away at some foreign language or other. Like to do bodywork: I’ve given a million and seven backrubs over the years and hardly ever been shot at.
Temperament: Quietish. Shyish. In large groups, I tend to hang back. I open up in groups of a half-dozen or fewer. I’m an observer – it goes with the writing – and a reader of moods and nuances. I love kids and they tend to love me. Ditto dogs and cats; don’t know yet about your horse or gecko.
I like to laugh, and I can usually make other people laugh, sometimes even intentionally. My sense of humor is a bit offbeat, I think, leaning on lots of puns and (I’m told) cognitive dissonance. (No, I don’t know what that means either.)
I’m basically disengaged from mass entertainment: I don’t own a TV – I miss football and soccer and PBS, but oh well – and I rarely go to movies. That hot new pop song? I’ve never heard it. Most weeks, I have no idea who the beautiful people on the cover of People magazine even are, much less who they’re making babies with. You might change my mind about movies, but I’m pretty settled that for me no TV is the best TV. (Especially during election years.)
I like concerts and live theater, though, and have recently discovered that standing-room at the Opera is the best entertainment bargain in the Bay Area.
Musical taste? Mostly classical these days, especially Early Music, but also Beatles/Stones/CSNY/REM-ish pop – the KFOG mix, basically, I mean, it’s the stuff I play and sing myself – plus most genuinely ethnic musics. (Hybrids, not so much.) - I’m looking forward to going to Lark Camp later this summer, if that rings any bells with you.
My work is in – go ahead and yawn – IT. Specifically, I’m a database administrator. Given my inexplicable lack of boundless wealth, I like computer work qua work – it suits me fine – but I’ve got a pretty dry-eyed appreciation for our contemporary wave of technological innovation: Anyone who thinks the Internet is a greater advance than running water is kinda nuts, it seems to me.
I’m a relationship guy. My happiest times – I’ve had more than my share of luck in this – have been the times when I’ve found someone I can be close to pretty much 24/7. (No, of course I don’t mean a continual yak-fest: Sitting or lying together reading counts as together-time, especially if, say, our elbows touch.) I love touching, hugging, and snuggling – feel free to extrapolate. Kissing is another thing that’s better than the Internet.
Who I’m looking for: Someone smart, funny, energetic, adventurous, grounded, thoughtful, sensual, adult. Active in mind and body. Cosmopolitan. An intellect both firm and limber – able to connect the dots from flirting to philosophy to Furtwangler to filo pastry all over the same cup of tea. Is a smidge of naughtiness too much to ask? Mischievous! Someone with Beatrice in her. (Call me pedantic but it wouldn’t hurt if she knew how to spell and pronounce �mischievous’, too.) It’s no fun if you can’t enjoy playful sparring together and feel closer afterward.
Meet a soulmate from California, United States. Here I go - I guess we are all here for similar reasons.
I am generally a very positive sort of person. Don't like the negative, but sometime things happen. I like the feeling I get when some little random act of kindness helps someone or makes them simile. I need someone that shares these traits. I don't want a mate that is negative or complains all the time.
I am generaly a happy person, proud of my education, experience and life. I am ambitious, hard working, but like to play as hard if not harder than I work. I like and enjoy my free time. I like to explore and do things. Sometime I act more like a teenager than a 60 year old man. I need a match that has the energy to get out and about to do things. An active sort of person.
I probably eat out more than I eat at home, but I do enjoy good home cooking and spending time at home. I like my morning coffee and would love to share a cup with someone as we sit outdoors and chat or just enjoy nature.
I want to explore the area and enjoy life and what it has to offer. Want to join me?

Meet someone special from United States. --I'm intellectually curious, a thinker & a do-er. I'm constantly fascinated with learning new things. I've never been afraid to try something new & completely different with my life. Like many, I've had several very different careers: programming management, sales.
--I like using humor to put people at ease. I can be intense and focused, or relaxed. Sincere, sometimes playful. I read widely and follow politics here & around the world.
--I grew up on a farm in eastern Pennsylvania.
--I enjoy building: relationships, teams/organizations (at work), ideas.
--I like sharing: what's more fun than doing things with your partner? Shared values, intellectual stimulation and challenge are important. I look for strong mutual attraction; a basis for trust; good communication skills; active, not necessarily sports, though golf together would be fun.
--At the top of the list: being able to talk about anything important to either partner. The ability to both agree and disagree.

Meet a soulmate from California, United States. A little about me...
SORRY LADIES, I DO NOT RESPOND TO PROFILES WITHOUT PICTURES. I am not a big man, so I prefer ladies of smaller staure. I can Honestly say that, "People tend to like me, both to my face and after I've left the room". Jokes? I've got hundreds of 'em. Ask me how I'm doing and I'll always say, "GREAT!!" I am the kind of man that women SAY they want - with just a 'touch' of the outlaw in me. CHIVALRY IS NOT DEAD. I am a Gentleman. It is my 'Lifestyle'. You will find me to be Well-Adjusted, Happy, Playful, Affectionate, Funny, Honest, Reliable, Loyal and Trustworthy. I am loving, by nature, and both verbally and physically affectionate. I love pet names and intimate interaction. Between lovers, a look, a whisper, a glance, a smile, a wink - even from across the room, is foreplay. Each private whisper and secret giggle is a treasured, intimate memory to be shared. I'm COMPLETELY divorced, (Zip-Zero-Nada-NO DRAMA) semi-retired and financially stable. Dancing, travel, beaches, movies, theater, fireplaces, candles, kisses and engaging conversation thrill me. I teach Communication Skills. In my personal life, that translates into compromise, and co-operation as opposed to 'Winning', when our opinions or agendas may differ. I AM A FEMINIST.
About the one I'm looking for...
Ideally, I seek a Smallish, Demure Lady. I am particularly attracted to Ladies with shapely legs. Ideally, my Lady is either Petite, Slender, Athletic & Toned Or Average. Come on, Yall!!! You KNOW what "Average" means!! I would prefer for her to be 4'11" to 5'3". I am deeply interested in the substance of her spirit and the content of her character. My perfect match is First, Foremost, and Above All, A LADY. She ALWAYS carries herself in a way that commands respect. She is serene, sensuous and playful. The Lady that I seek is comfortable in her own skin and with her own femininity. My ideal woman is comfortably casual, but possesses innate, upscale, low-keyed elegance. She radiates 'CLASS'. No shrinking violet, she. Respected by her protagonists and lionized by her peers, she has courage and confidence. She inspires loyalty and is a woman of substance and integrity. My ideal Lady is a fiercely loyal and trustworthy friend. She requires and freely gives respect. An open and honest communicator, she understands the value of true intimacy and emotional support. She cares what people think about her, but cares more about what she thinks of herself. She has a conscience and she lives by it.
I'd just like to add...
The children in my life call me "Papa". I spend as much time with my Grands, Nieces and Nephews, as I their schedules permit. I am divorced, but there is no such thing as "Ex-Grandchildren". Family ties and values are EXTREMELY important to me. A "Family" is not about biology. A "Family" is about LOVE. Your family would be important to me too.
I have a great sense of humor that runs toward the risque', but stops well short of things tasteless, gross or perverted. I LOVE to laugh and enjoy putting a smile on people's faces. Some political and moral issues get my back up, but for the most part, I am a happy-go-lucky, life-loving, joyful, friendly, glass-half-full kind of guy. I am physically fit. I work out 4 times a week.
They say that Religious People are people who don't want to go to and Spiritual People are folks who have BEEN to and don't want to go back!
I am a deeply Spiritual man. I possess a strong belief in GOD and have unconditionally surrendered my life and my will to My God's Loving care. As a result I enjoy great personal serenity and an abiding inner peace. I believe that each person finds their own Higher Power, in their own way-or not. I will respect your personal beliefs, whatever they may be
