Date a woman from San Ramon, United States. Two by two. I think that's the way it's done. Sharing life with your best friend...can life get any better than that?
I enjoy exploring California. It's all new to me.
Driving along the coast, stopping to watch the waves crash against the rocks. Traveling the backroads to find a'hole in the wall' restaurant with great food and history.
There may be a re-sale shop or flee market that provides a treasure to be restored or re-finished?
I can also dress up and go to the city for a show or dinner.
I love beaches and the sun.
Italy is a favorite destination.
Family and friends mean a great deal to me and I hope you have family too.

Meet a woman from California, United States. I am young at heart, has many friends, belong to Charitable World Wide Organization. I like a good laugh with my family and friends.

Date someone special from California, United States. Finding someone special I would think the following, we have fun togther and everyone knows that. We enjoy friends and family and like time together alone as well. We laugh and smile at each other and ourselves.....We can kid or tease each other with respect for each other. People would see us as caring and interesting. It is important to enjoy new things like people and new places. I think each day is a gift and make the most of it.......
Being on the shorter side of life left to live I do believe each day is or can be better than the day before. I do love to be happy which I am most days, not many days do the storm clouds appear. I find learning new things is so much fun when you get older, I guess because I am surprised old dogs do learn new tricks. I am tenacious with projects with my camera or computer and find great joy in creative things. I have a love of photography and some day want to take more classes. I have taught myself a lot of things and feel I learn the hard way some times but it makes me a better student. I am laid back but very strong when I need to be, I keep very busy and find most days I never sit down on the weekends, there will always be time to rest later in life. I am healthy which I am very grateful for and feel making the most out of life now is what counts as you never know what is in store later on. I do not have a picture in my mind of the person I would like to spend time with but I think I will know him when he comes along. That is what this kind of dating is all about, meeting new people and seeing if there is a connection. I do not think I have changed much since I was 20 but then I guess I must have in some ways. I sure am smarter now, thank heaven for all that life experience stuff I got first hand. Well let me know if who I am or might be to you is of interest.......you never know.
Meet people from San Ramon, United States. I enjoy life and its many opportunities. Most important to me are my family and friends. I love being active and being healthy enough to hike and dance (just started tap, looking for a jazz and ballet class..oh, and ballroom too). On the cerebral side, I appreciate being able to work just part-time in a stimulating environment. After my second retirement I want to take water color and photography classes. I also would like to find time to write the books I keep thinking about and go to talks offered by the Commonwealth Club in SF.
I hope to find a guy who has a sense of humor and a positive approach to life, one who wants to be active as well, someone who would find it fun to hike often for exercise, someone who doesn't need to spend many hours per day watching TV.
A dream trip would be to travel with my guy best friend, visiting and hiking in our National Parks. I would also love to take a weekend break to walk the beach on a winter's day and relax with a book by the fire. Hopefully he would want to climb the many hills and steps in San Francisco with me, seeking out the famous Victorian painted ladies.
Date men and women from San Ramon, United States. The two most engaging aspects of my current life are my grandchildren--one little girl here and two boys in Oregon--and fiction writing. I recently pitched my current novel in progress and have an interest from two top agents. I may also be able to pitch a prior novel I completed 6 years ago to these same agents. So much of my time is finishing, editing, writing queries, and synopses to get them in shape. I do attend writer conferences and workshops, but am always interested in fellow writers, whether their preference is fiction or non-fiction or poetry.
I also am enjoying a new connection to a church in the area I just moved to (San Ramon) and am interested in meeting someone on a similar faith journey. I am very liberal in my politics and sincere in my faith--sometimes a hard combination for others to appreciate or understand.
I retired two years ago from a 40 year career as a therapist, the last 19 at a Kaiser facility. I do appreciate those who either have had careers focused on helping others or have done so outside of their careers.
I am looking for a monogamous relationship but not necessarily marriage or even blending lives. I would just enjoy the affection and emotional connection to a man who appreciates some of the same things in life that I do. I drink rarely and do best with someone with the same habits in that area.
One of the things on top of my list of "wants" is to connect with someone with a great sense of humor--able to laugh at himself and laugh WITH me. I'm not sure you're out there...but if you are...please write. I'm a sucker for a witty, literate man.
Meet men and women from San Ramon, United States. I hope this can be added later as I haven't really sat down to put into words anything about myself yet. More to come, but for now, just know I am a positive, happy gal that loves the water and animals. I love being with people, being active, laughing and having a good time. I am hoping to find a connection in a parter - one I can share similar likes and experiences.
Family is important to me - yours and mine and I would love to spend time with all of them. I am okay with babies and children for a time, but not a very long time such as days on end.
Cooking isn't my forte' although I love entertaining. Go figure. I have learned to be very creative in making simple and wholesome foods with splurges along the way.
My biggest accomplishment has been, with the exception of having three beautiful children, is sailing a small vessel in about a foot of visibility and no technical equipment except a compass and radio from Newport Beach to Catalina - AND arriving exaactly where I intended. That made me very happy especially considering the consequences.
I would love to either visit on the phone or e-mail to get to know someone before I decide I want to spend time with them. I am very honest and open and although at times it is difficult, you will always know where you stand with me, and I hope that to be true vise versa as well.
Date a soulmate from San Ramon, United States. I enjoy dancing, exercising, going out to dinner, traveling, cooking and gardening and am looking for someone with similar interests. I'm looking for a companion that also enjoys a quiet dinner at home as well as going out to nice restaurants. I love traveling and going on cruises.
Meet someone special from California, United States. Life brings amazing opportunities - one just needs to reach out and grab them!
We have two choices - sit and do nothing or take a risk, expose ourselves to new experiences and people. I would like to find a man who is so secure in himself and he will take those risks and see if something develops in a relationship with me. We have nothing to lose and everything to gain - if there is nothing there, at least we have a new friend.
I have my own business, a wonderful family, a lovely home but I am missing that special person in my life. I never pictured myself alone at this age but here I am - I miss having a best friend in my life. I truly believe that everything progresses from that fundamental friendship and respect. If you are a true match for me, you will understand that statement and you probably had someone like that in your past.
I am healthy, active, fun. I like to travel - especially love Italy. Like cruises. Love flowers (my yard is really beautiful right now).
If any of this is interesting to you, send me an email and let's see what happens!
Date men and women from California, United States. I'm looking for someone thoughtful and easy going who likes to have fun and travel. Let's just be friends and see what happens. I value family, friends and grandchildren. Born, raised and spent the majority of my life in the Midwest but last few years a considerable amount of time in CA. I like quiet times, reading, staying at home, country music, 50's/60's music, but also movies, dining out, getting back into dancing, going for walks. I have traditional values, laugh easily -- am healthy and do not look my age! I'm very adaptable, willing to seek new adventures with a caring, loving guy. Would like to meet for coffee, conversation and take it slow.
