Date men and women from United States / California / San Diego, 53 year old

Date people from California, United States. I'm an old-fashioned romantic. I believe in love and monogamy. I have many interests, but what I like most is a fine old wine shared with a lovely companion who appreciates it as much as I do. Professionally, I'm a Stanford-educated lawyer who discovered 15 years into his big-firm, private-practice career that what he really wanted to do was be a prosecutor and wear the White Hat. And so it happened. Now I am very happy in my work life, and want to be just as happy in my private life--which I now have time for. I'm also a good cook. BTW, pics are recent and accurate except for the facial hair, which is no more.

Date single man from California, United States. Love the simplier things in life; talking, laughing, walks on the beach, dinner and a movie. Enjoy being active; kayaking, camping, bike riding, playing sports (ok, I admit, I'm a little competitive - just a little) day at the park, playing with kids. Love stimulating conversation; values, politics, religion,meaning of life, solving the problems of the world.
What else would you want to know about me? I'm real handy around the house. I designed and build my house 5 years ago. I don't drink, but I don't need too, to fall off my chair laughing- my best times in life have been sitting around with friends or family and laughing about "who knows what". It's okay if you drink - no problems as long as you get happier the more you drink, My 3 children mean everything to me, I have two adult children (is that right adult -children? sure it is, just sounded odd)and a wonderful 10 year old that lives with me the majority of the time. Oops, I guess they all do. I have coached all their sports teams, from baseball, soocer, basketball and taught their martial arts. I like to cook, ok - I love to eat too. Sorry don't like sushi -yuck, but I do like fish. I'm sure my kids would want me to tell you "Please, Don't ask him to sing"
Looking for a beautiful woman inside and out, must be educated, great sense of humor (gotta love to laugh) and a zest for life. A woman that is confident in a humble way. Loves being with family,friends and looks forward to the quiet times alone. Like a woman who likes to travel, but is just as content being together, wherever that may be; walking along the beach, street fairs, grocery shopping or just in each others arms.Looking for that special woman that has her own interests but can't wait for our time together.
Ideally, I would like a woman that would like to spend time getting to know each other, with long walks, dinner and interesting conversation. She is able to discuss a variety of subjects, teach me something, be able to agree to disagree without getting upset or hurt, provoke/challenge my thinking.
One last thing, ( a disclaimer of sorts)
I have a B.A. in Economics and spent a majority of my early career working my way up the corporate ladder, eventually spending time as a corporate v.p. of finance. It was financially rewarding but not much else. I left the finance field many years ago to pursue my quest to be a teacher. I've been a teacher for over 10 years now. So, I don't make the big bucks, but I walk down the halls of an elementary school and I get over hundred hugs a day, many from kids I don' even know, but they know where they can go for a little love and attention. That is worth all the money in the world to me. So, if I email you, or whatever and you are a woman looking for financial wealth, know that isn't me, but I'm taking a chance that maybe that isn't the most important thing to you either. If the money is that important, please forgive me for wasting your time, I totally understand if you don't respond - no worries, no judgement.
Okay, one more last thing (disclaimer of sorts -2)
In the spirit of honesty, I have been separated 15 months and 2 days as of July 20, 2012, it was unexpected and I have been taking care of the home and kids since. I spent 8 months, humbling myself, begging my wife and best friend of 22 years to come home. For me marriage has always been a forever thing, but it takes two. After 8 months and new information arose, I knew that life as we knew it was gone and time to move on. So after much prayer I have begun my quest for a new best friend and that forever thing. In order for one life to begin the old must pass, my lawyer is filing divorce papers this week. This may be too much info, but I sensed it was an issue for prospective "best friends "

Date people from United States. I am curious, adventurous, and absolutely unorthodox.* I started writing stories when I was 5 and it began a life-long learning adventure. I now make my living as a writer.
Here's what I've discovered so far:
We're all pretty much the same: same loves, joys, sorrows and triumphs
Women aren't perfect
Imperfection is ok
Men have half a brain, women have a whole brain (really)
Humor is an effective communication tool (satire is difficult)
Humans are wired for story; it's how we learn
When in doubt, keep quiet
Read first, ask questions later
Friendship is more valuable than gold
We all fall down; it's important to get up again
Love rejuvenates
Religion is relative, but faith is critical
Human beings are social animals; we do best in relationship
A loving relationship is a partnership between two people who respect and admire each other
I am looking for someone who is both my friend and my lover. Someone who is willing to have an affair of the heart, an affair of the mind, and an affair of the soul.
*Orthodox or "right thinking" is following a defined world view that conforms to established belief. I don't do that.
I’m really good at
Listening
Writing
Telling stories
Walking/hiking
Thinking of fun things to do
Finding out how stuff works - I'm curious
Exploring mystery - I studied Journalism and Literature in college
Cooking - I was a sous-chef
Kissing - it really is an art
I'm a freelance writer and am preparing to attend SDSU for an MSW, with a focus in Mental Health, and plan on attaining an LCSW
In my spare time I'm writing a mystery (life is a mystery after all).
I read like a fiend and my tastes vary. When I want to stretch body and soul, I go on a ride on my recumbent trike (HP Velotechnik Scorpion).
I avoid boredom by thinking about
The mystery and wonder of life.
How to tighten my writing
The characters I'm developing for my story
Are Dark Energy and the unconscious mind different aspects of the same manifestation?
A few things that are important to me:
Stimulating conversation
A sense of belonging
Books
Loving relationships
Meditation
You
I'd really love to hear from you if
. . . you have humor, curiosity, and wonder
. . . you can identify and discuss your feelings
. . . you enjoy conversation
. . . you enjoy physical activity (hiking, riding, walking)

Meet men and women from United States. "Wait" Let me explain my (HEADLINE) I didn't SHOOT anybody (Never)
I am a professional Photographer & I Photograph Family Portraits for a living! But I did get you to open my profile didn't I.
I am 53 years young.... I am 5 feet 11 inches tall & slender with salt & pepper hair and I am very down to earth.
I also believe I am a great conversationalist.
Hello, my name is David.
And I believe I am a pretty special! Guy... as I know you are a special woman!...
I truly believe with the greatest conviction in life that one of the most pivotal accomplishments that we could ever make happen in our lives at this age level is to find and grow & nurture, cultivate and be a part of a very real, warm loving enduring, tender adult intimate monogamous relationship. (Wow that’s a mouth full hun)
If at this age level we cannot do that, then what we will find is that we are another year older and another year alone. I am tired of being alone aren’t you?
I am not here to play, & I am not here to date and date and date….
"I am only here to find that one very special woman that will walk into my life and I into hers and make me realize why it never worked with anyone else”
Write to me and let’s sit down and share a glass of wine, a soda, tea, milkshake, juice, some stories,
I am looking for a needle in a haystack, (Are you her?) you should be thin/slender and in shape, tall or petite, and know how to talk to a real Man, no games, no miss representation of who you are or your pictures please!
Sometimes we need to look outside of the box and our own backyard to find that very special woman.
Because what it is that we seek may be tucked away in some little corner of this great planet of ours.
Here is to looking outside…….. I hope I find you or you me…..?
Although my stats say I am Jewish, as that is how I was born & raised........ I try each & every day to be more spiritual!

Date someone special from United States. “We never had to take any of it seriously did we?” -A famous line from a famous book, uttered by the heroine when she first saw the man of her dreams.
It doesn't need to be difficult. It doesn't require drama.
You and I probably share some common interests because I have so many of them: humor, laughter, sports, the outdoors, photography, art, movies, old movies, music, politics, current events, investing, philosophy, psychology, health and nutrition, museums, travel, history, fitness, self-improvement, volunteering, great writing, conversation, poetry, ideas, growth, entertaining, walking, running (a little bit), hiking, biking.
I grew up in sports and played golf professionally as a young man, but I am a balanced person with plenty of intellectual interests, sensitivity, and communication skills.
I have primary custody of my 14-year-old son because I am the responsible one. My son is a high achiever--quiet, calm, funny, wise and an old soul. As a volunteer I work one night a week with troubled boys because many of them never had a father.
Ask me some questions. I love to write.
Good luck.

Meet a man from United States. Hello, Thank you for looking at my profile.
I'm an easy going laid back gentleman who is looking to meet someone to be friends first that will hopefully lead to a ltr. I tend to be shy around new people and open up once I am comfortable. I value honesty, loyality, integrity, and communication in a relationship. I have been told by multiple people that I look better than my pictures!
I have a very diverse set of interests and always looking into new things to learn. One of the many things that I like to do is to try new restaurants and cuisines. I also like to cook and try new recipes.
I am looking for someone who is honest, independent, easy going, with an open mind. I'm not into games and drama. Life is too short and should be spent enjoying every day.
Instead of going on and on about what I am looking for in a partner and myself.....email me and let's find out more about each other.

Date single man from United States. A little about myself...
I am a very hardworking dedicated person and I live life to its fullest. I laugh often and am very optimistic. I think my smile and laugh is contagious :)
In my free time, I spend time playing golf, hiking, fishing, Padre games, (season tickets) and chargers (season tickets) maybe I should sell them now!!, cooking, entertaining, weekends on the boat at SWYC and last but not least just getting out of town because!
I enjoy helping others more than anything else. I would put everything I'm doing on hold if someone I know needed help with anything at all. After traveling extensively for business for years, I am ready for that special someone to add to my love of travel on a completely different perspective.
I am incredibly honest and trustworthy. I would expect my match to have the same qualities. That is extremely important.
I have a great, maybe sarcastic, sense of humor and can laugh at even the worst jokes and tell a few myself.
Recently I had the opportunity to get involved with a new non toxic cancer drug that has literally changed me and the way I look at each and every day of my life.
I enjoy most sports either spectating or participating. I have a love for golf and have been in the industry most of my life. I have been in the golf industry for over 20 years and currently moving into a new business with medical scrubs.
I am looking for my best friend, partner and someone who is caring. spontaneous, loving, not afraid of trying new experiences, loves to take charge on occasion, confident, and comitted, spontaneous, shows compassion for others, long walks on the beach or anywhere to talk about life, politics, religion, family and most important us!
I hope you will take the time to read my profile and see some traits that you will feel are common between the two of us.
I do look forward to meeting my soulmate and lifetime partner!!
