Date men from United States / California / Rocklin, 48 year old

Date a soulmate from Rocklin, United States. Please read carefully...
I enjoy athletic and outdoor activities. I am looking for friendship and laughter with someone special and hopefully, a long term relationship or marriage. I work out 5-6 days a week and I am attracted to someone who is in shape and lives a healthy lifestyle.
I have been divorced for almost 9 years and I am an empty nester; my kids (son 25, daughter 23, daughter 21) are all away in careers or college. I want to find a companion to share in events, sports, romantic dinners, traveling, and other various outdoor activities. I was married once for 18 years and seek a balanced and healthy relationship built on respect, trust, loyalty, consideration, and reciprocity. I have a good relationship with my ex and she is remarried and really happy (and I am happy for her).
I believe in taking the time to get to know someone a little more, before just rushing in because there is attraction. That consists of talking on the phone or meeting in person. I dislike texting (I think it is has it's purpose, but is impersonal and often misinterpreted because of lapses in time), emails (I don't think emailing is an accurate method to get to know someone, although necessary for obvious reasons).
I want to share my life and build something with just one woman...I am direct and forthright and all or nothing. I believe you should be with someone who makes your heart beat faster when you see him...and if I don't do that, find someone who does, silly. Glad we had this talk...
I don't know, I have met a lot of nice people on here, but starting to think maybe, I should get a golden retriever and call it a day... If you are interested, please write back. I look forward to taking the time to court you and hopefully, find what we are all looking for.

Meet someone special from Rocklin, United States. Hi ladies! I'm a gentleman, so I'll open your door, bring you flowers and look after your needs. I have a wild side too, so we'll have fun. I'll get dirty sprucing up the garden and am handy around the house, so we can divide the labor and share our successful home environment. I'd love to go out with you on a Friday night and celebrate, which could be dinner and dancing, champagne happy hour with friends, or getting out of dodge for a drive to the coast.
I'd like us to laugh, relax and enjoy the day with good company. There are plenty of stresses and demands in life already, so let's keep it light. I'm looking for someone who is confident and fun, beautiful, supportive, affectionate, playful, understanding, forgiving and patient. Whew! Too much to ask? Oh, and heels are a definite plus, lol. Keeping physically fit is important to me, and it's fun when we work out together. I'll even do Bikram Yoga with you, if you like, humbling as that experience is!
Let's dress to the 9's and go to the opera, then change into our jeans and ride into the sunset. Let's travel to exotic places, taste new foods, drink new wines, and see the sites. Let's explore the history, the art, the scenery, the people and the ambiance.
I am confident, decisive but comfortable with compromise, playful, affectionate, understanding, forgiving, supportive and FUN!. I have a successful career which I enjoy, but I work to live, not live to work. I am looking for a life long committed relationship, and am willing to take it slow to make sure this is it.
I'm a dreamer and an optimist. I just haven't met you yet...

Meet single man from Rocklin, United States. Hello,
I would like to meet someone to share my life with,and theirs with me.I am positive,and upbeat.....I feel that I am READY...to meet that special someone.I am an open minded and out going type of person, at other times I need a little time & space to check in with me,and keep things real.In my humble opinion..I am romantic,considerate,compassionate,nurturing and supportive.I am looking for a woman with the same qualities.I love the ocean,and the mountains.I have very special,and very beautiful daughters( 18 and 21),they are my pride & joy, they are always in my heart,however there is room for one more very special woman in my life.
Loyalty is a quality that is extremely important to me, passion and romance are important as well. I feel these things keep a relationship strong.Honesty is a requirement,no compromising here,honesty is the backbone of all relationships.Well,I won't write a novel here. I am looking for someone to compliment each of our lives together,not to complete each other.I have always felt that real happiness comes from inside,it seems impossible for a relationship to work if both parties don't bring their own happiness to the table.A physical attraction is important,however a kind heart,and a beautiful smile,a passion for life.. is what I admire in a partner.

Date a soulmate from California, United States. Mar 2012 Update: Halfway through my MBA program, and I must say my priorities have shifted to finishing this program in the next year. Ladies, I thank you in advance for understanding this.
I’m a simple man who has traveled and worked all over the place. I spent 26 years in the Navy, moved on, and now working again in a terrific and challenging position. I come from a meager upbringing, and I enjoy life. I am not stingy and I like to do things. I know that I can’t take it with me; however, I must remember in 2012 not to overindulge. Time to start planning for retirement one of these days.

At this time, I would like to settle down with much to offer the right woman. I am stable, and I enjoy getaways, live music, and checking out different restaurants. Sometimes, I like to stay home and grill and check out a good movie. Get to know me. Let’s have a cup of coffee, or a drink or dinner. I have southern roots and I was raised with respect. I have no problem opening the door, pulling out your chair, or picking up the tab. I believe this is the man’s responsibility. I like talking on the phone or in person. Not much for serial emailing, and texting back and forth. I am a professional, time is valuable, but I will make the commitment to meet you in person and just see where it goes. If nothing else, you will have found a friend that you could call upon in the future. I believe in loyal dedicated friendship. I am new to the area, and would love to make some positive connections. Once you get to know me, you will be glad you did, so go ahead and do it. Don’t be shy. Tony here, looking forward to meeting you soon.

Meet someone special from California, United States. Happy New Year! I've decided that with the new year, I would update my Match profile, as I've not done so for months.
I've also updated (some) of my photos, but will keep a couple which are a few years old (can you guess which ones they are)? I think they're still accurate representations of me - as my friends totally agree. Along with the fact I've provided this "photo full-disclosure" and have also included photos as current as yesterday, I think I'm within photo compliance standards.
I'm not a "one-liner" kind of guy, so you won't see me hitting on you at the bar nor hear from me on Match - unless I see that you've peeked @ me too - before or after I've peeked at you. The only problem with that approach is it seems many women must have disabled the "let them know you've viewed them" feature of Match, so I may never know if you've initiated or returned my glance. I'm just about reciprocation and tend not to take it to the next level and email you, unless I know you've at least taken the time to view my profile. I'm all about the give & take and not at all about the chase - whether I'm doing the chasing or being chased. I'm not a stalker and not interested in being stalked. If you peek or wink @ me or send me an email and I don't reciprocate in-kind, then just know that we're not a "match" and we both should move on.
With all that said, I'm looking to meet someone with common interests, education, occupation, etc. My preferred dating age-range may seem pretty broad and leans pretty heavily to the younger side. My friends and past dates/relationships are/have tended to be in the same age-range. I guess that maybe I just act like a punk for my age - probably a result of being single FOREVER and that vast majority of friends of my age got married at some point and we lost our common ground - of FREEDOM. HA!
Anywho - I am a Regional Sales Manager for a Fortune 100 Company and I travel a few days/week almost every week in NoCal and 5 states in the Pacific/Mountain West. I have no problems with trust/fidelity and I assume you will not either. I have an absolutely PERFECT track record in relationship loyalty and expect the same of my partner. Cheating = GAME OVER.
My 2012 New Years Resolutions are pretty typical:
1) Quite Smoking for GOOD - I've done so several times in the past for years at a time, but this time it's for real. I've changed my Smoke status to "NO-WAY", but know that this is a work-in-progress and if you have issues with it even for the past, I completely understand. IYAMWHATIYAM. - decipher that!
2) Exercise MORE. I already do a few times/week most weeks, but want to step it up get back into "fighting-shape". Not really to fight, but just to look like I might.
3) Eat healthier - Traveling as much as I do, the easiest thing to do to grab what's convenient and looks good - a lot like others' approach to dating the opposite sex!
That's enough for now, I don't want to be too perfect, right?
So if you're tired of all the "Tall, Dark and Handsome's" cheating on you and maybe you're ready to try a shot at "Relatively Short, Fair, and Average-looking" (but loyal to a fault) - let me know with a peek (or a wink if you're too shy to let me know that you've peeked) and we'll see if I peek back atcha.
Hope to hear about you. More about me later, but for now - just Later
