Date men and women from United States / California / San Jose, 52 year old

Date single man from San Jose, United States. Ideal would be, to be able to talk,communicate,listen and enjoy each other, and hope for a second date, so that we could continue to get to know one another. But basically, Ideal is what you and your date make of the time that is spent between tne two of you.

Meet a man from San Jose, United States. I'm a very easy guy to get along with and talk too. I'm willing to do most anything (within reason of course). I Like to have drinks, wine, coffee. camp, bike ride, weekend hotel stays, fly places. I enjoy/love my kids. Have fun BBQ'ing and entertaining or attending. Any kind of festival is always good, especially if there's music. Things seem to go better with music.
I see life as you're only as old as you feel. I definately have a long ways to go before I get old! I don't want that getting confused with my maturity level though.
I feel I haven't put my toe in the water enough on the relationship front. So...I'm going to give this a shot and see if I can meet someone that I click with. It may be cliche....but, chemistry is now very important to me. I get along with most everyone so I'm realizing that where it happens is with the person it feels right with. Not to offend the interested, but I'd like to find someone that's as much for me as I am for them.
Now that I've read so many profiles,I can say this about me. I'm an honest loyal guy and I guess i can say a gentleman (yes I open doors...but because I just do. Not to impress) that is interested in meeting someone that meshes well with me. I can't say I have any preconcieved notions or expectations with meeting someone online. I will say it's a bit odd posting photo's of myself though. But I think we can all agree the more pictures the better the picture. Unfortunately I don't have many of myself, but they're current photos.

Date men and women from San Jose, United States. Hi there!
Like the good doctor says, "You've got to accentuate the positive, eliminate the negative, latch on to the affirmative, and don't mess with Mister In Between."
I am pretty much in the classic work hard, play hard mold. I enjoy my work, and love my fun. Skiing, golf, fine wine, good food, travel, music, and laughs are what I enjoy and like to share!
I am pretty straightforward, and am loyal and supportive of the people I care about.
If you have a sense of humor, energy for taking a big bite out of the apple of life, and can be intellectually engaging, say hi!

Meet people from San Jose, United States. I'm not just about me anymore. I'm really looking to be with and care for someone and somethings much greater than just myself. I need a friend first and that friendship, if it's the right one, will grow into a deep and meaningful love that will last us for the rest of our lives. That may sound like a tall order but I believe it to be true with right person. I also want that special someone to care the same for me and the things and people (kids) in my life. I also want a person that has a taste for life and is not just content to sit at home all the time...Let's get out there and just start "Livin" again...

Date someone special from San Jose, United States. Update: 7/17 - Back from vacation, Alaska was beautiful, cruise was great, boys and I had a blast. Now time to get back to the serious stuff... like finding my soul mate so the next cruise will be twice as enjoyable, sharing it with that one special person I love.
Are you looking for someone to go climb that mountain with you? Hike miles into the wilderness and camp out under the stars? You probably want to keep looking, that's not me. Don't get me wrong, I love the great outdoors, a picturesque view, a fabulous sunset, preferably hand in hand with my love. But if you were to find me in Yosemite, it'd probably be at The Ahwahnee.
This is where one usually puts the shopping list of attributes, but I'm not that much of a conformist. I can *tell* you I'm "witty, funny, honest, imaginative, compassionate, etc."... but in truth, that's going to come out in conversation, when we try and make a connection, and discover if there's some chemistry between us. Conversation is key; you'll find I'm easy to talk to and so much more than whatever I can write in this short space.
Oh, and I have to say I'm confident. Literally every profile I've read says "he has to be confident". So yes, I'm definitely confident. But not cocky, no, that would be bad, definitely not cocky. Just confident.Did you laugh just now? Good. (if you didn't, that's fine, I'll work on it) I like to joke a fair amount, and to me, laughing is important in life. Relationships should be fun. A day shouldn't go by where I haven't made you laugh at something I've said or done.
While I'm up for dates, not that interested in just serial dating. Yes, I'm one of those on here to find "the one" and I'm fairly reserved as to who and how many I'll email. The aim is to fall madly, deeply, totally in love. Sounds wonderful, eh? That said, unlikely it will happen overnight, it takes time to get to really know someone. Has to "click", on many levels. The coolest thing is when you read my profile, decide "this has real potential", and send me an email. It tells me you're interested. And confident. And it's great being confident, isn't it? ;)
Friends say I don't look my age. Shaved with a fresh haircut, most people guess mid-40s. Must admit I like that. But then I don't feel my age either. Along with the wisdom of my years, I'm packing a heart that's way younger. My pictures are a mix of times, but I never seem to change much, did managed to fill it out some more with recent vacation pics.Details: I prefer to look close to home right now, W. SJ,Saratoga,Cup. and general area. Not opposed to further, but it has to have potential written all over it. I come with two boys, the current loves of my life, 12 and 16. We're tight, but they're growing up and finding their own things to do now. So I've got more time on my own these days. Still, my time to initially connect and date can be a bit limited, given I do have my sons a fair amount of the time. You probably understand that if you still have kids at home too. If you don't, then I'd hope you are patient as we get to know each other to the point where I would be comfortable introducing you into their lives, increasing the opportunities for us to spend time together. I feel I've got a lot to share, and would like a partner to share it with, and enjoy what she has to share as well. It makes life so much more interesting!
Initial contact: Stringing some cogent thoughts together in an email is preferred. I do enjoy a nice IM chat though, so if you find me online, go for it! (If you IM and I don't answer, I'm probably on the iPad) I do admire a woman who is communicative; not just face-to-face over coffee or such, but over email or IM as well (or texting if things progress to trading phone numbers), before and after we get together. It tends to demonstrate real interest. If I find you keep looking at my profile, and I think we might match, odds are an email will come your way too.

Date single man from California, United States. I'm now looking forward to starting a new chapter in my life. Just as when I was in college many years ago,I continue to stay in physical shape by lifting weights and mostly running every morning.I also enjoy riding bicycles, horses,hiking,bowling, playing pool,mini vacations,comedy shows, foreign/independent films out or at home,and even some shopping.
I lead a healthy(okay I love chocolates!)and decent lifestyle. I'm affectionate,reliable,and financially secure. I consider myself somewhat of a semi homebody,but by all means I still like to go out.I'm usually home in the evenings,more of an out during the day type person,but NOT written in stone,especially when on vacation.I enjoy trying out new places to eat,it need not be fancy for me. Cooking together(I'll be your helper)in the kitchen is an activity I enjoy. It's a good way to discover and share new recipes.
On my bucket list, I have: skydiving,a bungie jump,and being an extra in a movie,TV show,etc where I'm recognizable.In fact that's my new part time job,background acting.Better known as an extra, in TV,music videos,short films and commercials.
Not big on the nightclub/ bar scene, got tired of dancing with strangers in the dark long ago,but with a date I wouldn't mind.I come from a big family that I stay close with. Don't snore,leave the toilet seat down at night,although I don't know what the big deal about that is the rest of the time, and I might even stop and ask for directions someday!
Would be nice to meet someone for doing fun things together.Something we both enjoy.I want a relationship that's filled with warmth,closeness,laughter,and affection.Both know we can count on each other even in and through the worst of times, and are able to compromise. Your having kids is fine with me.Thanks for reading my profile. Hopefully you don't live too far away.I'll let you be the judge of that.

I'm looking to meet someone that can be my closest friend, truly lasting relationship material allowing us to decide where that leads.

Date men and women from California, United States. I am a giving person and I would love to find someone with a giving and open heart. I do not see life as a destination and I would love to be with someone who sees life as an adventure. I am looking for a partner. I am looking for someone to build a life with. I am looking for someone who will work through life's challenges with me and know the value of friendship. I do believe in God, however I believe that it is a personal journey. I have no desire to push my beliefs on anyone. However, I am always open to share and grow. I do take care of myself both mentally and physically and it is important to me that I have a partner that does the same. I like to be presentable at all times. However, I do not think that I need to dress up for every occasion. I really enjoy nice things and a clean house. I value children very much. I have always tried to support my daughter in her journey. I believe in love. I believe in the value of friendship. I believing in owning my portion of an uncomfortable situation. However, I do not believe in drama. I like to address the situation, find a solution and do what I can to mend it. I see myself as more of a peacemaker. I would love my partner to be able to address others from their heart. Of course we have to use our heads, but I believe that our heart holds our personal truths. I would like my partner to be willing to communicate as openly and honestly with me as possible, at all times. I think that trust, safety and respect are very, very important. I guess that this boils down to simple integrity. I am not perfect and I am not asking for perfection. I do not believe that it exists. However, I do believe that I owe it to the woman I invite into my life to be honest and not to play games. Really, I am not at all interested in artificial drama. I would love it if my partner were confident and comfortable with herself. Kindness matters. Giving matters. A sense of humor and laughter matter. I love romance. I love the freedom that can happen with trust and openness. I need monogamy. I need spontaneity. I really need adventure and a willingness to try new things. I really like to treat a woman like a woman. This means just the simple expressions, such as opening a door. Surprising her with flowers or a card. Surprising her with something that she enjoys, whatever that might be. I am looking for someone that realizes that relationships are give/give. I give 100% and so does my partner. Anyway, blah, blah, blah...
The bottom line, I am looking for a sweet, honest, intelligent, fun loving, romantic, adventurous, beautiful inside and out, woman to spend time with. I have a busy life and I really love my life. I have been blessed in many ways. I will always show up. However, I think maintaining the activities that I enjoy on my own is very important. I look forward to sharing our experiences together and apart. I am an independent person. However, I am very, very loyal. I am looking for my best friend in my partner.
