Meet a man from San Mateo, United States. Deliciously eccentric, white Anglo-Saxon Protestant, 15th generation American; cross between Woody Allen, Peter Lynch, Jack Nicholson, Muddy Waters and Robert Benchley. Extremely varied interests include music (except rap), food (except liver), fractals chaos theory, investment banking, sailing, travel, tennis, biking, skiing, hiking, scuba diving, working out, photography, cooking, micro-economics, sports cars and racing, Blackfeet Indians, physical anthropology, classical, Impressionist and modern art, modern architecture, classical Greek sculpture, Eichler, Manet, Rimsky-Korsikov, Ferrari, Ravel, Miro, Cezanne, Miles Davis, Frank Lloyd Wright, Gaugin, Jimmy Reed....blah, blah, blah.... Politically disenfranchised middle-of-the-roader. One-time killer bridge player. Accomplished niche guitarist. Extremely well developed sense of humor. Discovered plate tectonics on my own at the age of 12. Read all of Sinclair Lewis. Once reconstructed 17 ending moves of a chess game after realizing a misplay at move 7. Known to reverse-engineer applications code. Laughs at danger. Sneers at death. Can survive in the wilderness with only a Michelin Guide, Visa card and Polo catalog. Particularly fond of chocolate, marzipan, anything raspberry, Chateau Margaux, investment yields of 20%, tom gah gai, French blue, 12 bar rhythm and blues and stunning women (not necessarily in that order). Own classic Eichler, SUV, very sad and wonderful memories of the world's best cat and a collection of personal but entertaining stories. Seeking the last relationship. Carpe diem.I'm quietly trying to find the woman for the rest of my life. She's a combination of calm, but intense, intellectualism with an equal amount of street smarts and yet has a delicious sense of the absurd. She can make me really laugh. (She appreciates Jerome, Wodehouse, Benchley and Barry.) Her interests, accomplishments and tastes are as varied as mine. Her perspective of life and living has been seasoned by a palette of experiences; some hauntingly beautiful, some delicately pastelle, some dark and strong and bitter and some, well, just plain ugly. She has a sense of drive, passion and ambition balanced by an ethereal dreaminess. She can get lost in Barber's "Adagio for Strings". She's probably both strong, lithe and athletic, yet curved and soft; she's good looking...(she pretends not to know it). She takes my breath away. She's traveled but wants to see more. She's well read, but knows how little she knows. She's achieved a degree of expertise in one or more of the arts as well as her chosen professional field but is consumed by neither...because there is too much to see and do and know and so little time. She is torn by this. She knows that only through losing can you really savor winning. She knows what electricity means. She understands and demands "chemistry". Like her taste in wine, film, music, art and food, she will accept no substitutes. She's probably past 40 because it takes even smart people that long to learn something. She wants to show me Budapest, Vienna or Prague just as I want to show her Paris, Seville or Thira. She wants me to hold her hand. She wants me to want her. She wants me…

Date men and women from San Mateo, United States. I am a humorous sort of person and like to make others laugh. People say I am understanding, giving, and funny. I learn from every experience and find humor in most situations even bad. My son says I have a “gentle soul”. I don’t know. People say I am interesting... That’s what people say.
Not a smart man, necessarily, I like to look and see how people act and re-act within their beliefs. Along with reading I learn through observation. I am open to new ideas. different thinking and change. I think of myself as a quite man who seems to talk a lot.
My sons, the boys, are the most beautiful things I have ever seen and at times the wisest people I have ever met.
I am looking for a relationship with a person who is open, direct and says what they think with respect and understanding of the other. Without judgement. Who discusses all aspects of the relationship, feelings, fears, wants and needs. Someone who is independent and likes someone next to them too.
I dabble with Kung Fu, which I enjoy, and workout four to five times a week. I love photography. Like to travel more. I have always wanted a horse and am looking for the day I can get one.

Meet a soulmate from San Mateo, United States. About me
I grew up in Indiana on the balmy shores of Lake Michigan. Just about the only attribute of my home town was the great beaches. So, I really like beach towns. In fact, I was down in Southern California last year looking at San Diego communities. They have their own par 3 golf course plus the usual amenities. The only thing it didn’t have were some active adults!
Bright with eclectic interests. Articulate. I make friends for a long time. I am a person of high integrity. When I promise something you can depend on it. I have been described as affable and droll with a dry wit.
I am rather independent figuring that if I waited until I had the perfect companion to do things with, I would have missed some great experiences. I spent the entire summer of 1974 traveling around Europe on EurRail. It would be nice to have some one to look back with on trips like that.
My musical tastes are pretty eclectic – except Rap. Rap is the only so called music that makes me wish disco would make a comeback. Favorite song - James Taylor's "Shower The People".
I am not much for sweating away for hours in the gym on a treadmill. Although I do drop in occasionally. I would rather be out playing some kind of game – tennis or golf.
Perfect match
Intelligent with a great sense of humor.
Even tempered.
Low maintenance.
Sports minded.
Must not be
Overly materialistic - everyone needs money, just don’t obsess on it.

Date single man from San Mateo, United States. Looking for a British sense of humour, honesty,a zest for life along with caring about their personal appearance and concern for others. They would rather be happy than right. Willing to offer support which does not always mean agreement.

Meet men and women from California, United States. I am happily retired after a 40 year career in health care. In this phase of life I enjoy my children and grandchildren, my little dog, and being free to do what I want. As a result I volunteer at church and in the community since I believe being of service to others is very important. I travel quite a bit to beautiful places often visiting family and friends, and spend a lot of time keeping fit and healthy. Many good things have come my way in my life including a loving family, a fabulous education, and an outstanding executive career. Outgoing, intelligent, sincere, caring, and fun - that's me. My friends say I am vivacious, look much younger than I am, and have a great sense of humor. I have my roots in California and especially love this beautiful Bay Area. I take my health seriously and have a moderate self-imposed fitness routine. I attend a wonderful exercise class three times a week, walk everyday, hike, snowshoe, and on occasion, do kayaking. Nature and the outdoors are two of my loves. I read two newspapers a day, books, love movies, the symphony, concerts, plays, the theater. My social network of friends are treasured. Love eating all kinds of foods. I have a goal to enjoy life after having worked for so long. It would be fabulous to meet someone to share this goal with me.
My perfect match would be my best friend and confidant. I am looking for a long term relationship. He would be intelligent, independent, kind, caring, fun to be with, romantic, a committed partner, enjoy family and friends, and a good guy. He would enjoy learning about and exploring new places. He would be sociable and enjoy entertaining at home as well as going out casually or formally. We might have shared interests or be respectful of our partner's interests. We would both have goals for our lives that we would want to share with each other.

Date people from California, United States. I am told that I donРІР‚в„ўt look my age but, more importantly, I do not feel my age. There is still the idealistic young girl inside who is full of optimism and loves to laugh.
I have spent much of my life moving and traveling but have been back in the US (in Princeton NJ, Houston and now San Francisco)for more than 20 years. I grew up in Asia and went back to live there for much of my married life. As a result of this background I do not have patience for anyone who feels superior to other cultures and people. I am also an avid traveler with a long list of places yet to see. I like comfortable travel but really enjoy the opportunity to walk and explore along the way.
I take good care of myself and try to exercise often. I love to entertain and am a great cook. I am a news junkie and love movies and would hope to find someone who shares these interests. I love good conversation and do not mind differences of opinion if they donРІР‚в„ўt lead to irrationality and anger. I have a dog, have always had dogs and canРІР‚в„ўt imagine life without one. Having been an only child, I do need some private time and would be understanding if you have some interests you want to pursue on your own.
I am definitely spiritual but not tied to any particulary faith. My children say I am an Episcopalian Hindu Buddhist - they may be right.
I have two amazing daughters, living in NYC and San Francisco, and I am loving being a grand-mother. My grandson and I wrote a book together and I am working on one for my grand-daughter. Family is important to me as are friends. My friends are spread around the world but we somehow find ways to see each other.
I have always worked and worked hard but am moving toward winding up full-time employment. I hope to be in a position to be an active volunteer or work part-time – can’t imagine just sitting around. It would be nice to snuggle a little longer in the morning.
I have had a wonderful life but would love to find someone to share the fun with.

Date someone special from California, United States. I'm very creative and love to laugh and just be happy. My friends say I have a happy gene. I write and paint and enjoy almost everything. I have tickets to the theater and am also a gourmet cook . for me it's fun . Love to have dinner parties .. especially for two... I have a small but good wine selection and live on the water. It's a wonderful place to sip wine and watch sunsets. Perhaps, would you care to join me.

Meet a soulmate from California, United States. Back to the topic of perfect! I am so busy that I would like either the perfect man who can sweep me off my feet (not literally, of course - don't need any bad backs!) That's never happened to me and I'm not sure it can at my age (I'm 67 but I'm told I look much younger, and certainly act younger! I still water ski!) but I'm hoping it's never too late to find the love of your life. Guess I'm a romantic - ya' think?
Failing that, someone fun to be with occasionally would be great.
I still work, so I'm out of town a lot. I keep thinking about retiring, but it seems like every time I seriously consider it the stock market takes a dive and I reconsider.
The thing I am probably most passionate about is politics, and by that I really mean core values. I believe in personal responsibility, smaller government, lower taxes, and keeping government out of my personal life. In short, I'm a Conservative. If you agree, let's meet!
