Date men and women from United States / California / Santa Barbara, 60 year old

Date a man from California, United States. The four things that describe me best are love of life, adventuring, inner exploration, and family. I'm kind of a "happy dog"--up for most everything from culture, to quiet evenings at home, to socializing with friends, to attending some new learning experience. I love my work, which has me meeting and interacting with new and fascinating people every day, and am in the midst of writing a second book about how people change. The material can be a bit obtuse at times so am including quotes like: “Change is inevitable - except from a vending machine.”
I used to be involved in fairly hard core adventure activities: climbing, mountaineering, canyoneering, and so on. These days, while I still love being outdoors, my main interests are in skiing, backpacking, sailing and river running. I’m very committed to exercise—especially combining exercise with being outside--and hope that whatever woman I meet will feel that way too. Inner exploration has been just as important as outer adventure so I’ve had lots of experiences at workshops, retreats, and trainings and I’m still seeking new places to grow and learn. Finally, I still have a 10 year old at home (the other is over 18) who is with me half-time. They have a good mother, so I don't need help in that area, but any long term relationship would have to be with someone who liked being with children.
Being on the “wrong” side of 50 has had a nice impact on me in terms of prioritization and seizing the moment. I still work hard and have lots of things on my plate but I’ve become very ready to drop a day of work because a friend is in town, or add another week or two of vacation a year. Being close, having fun, learning something, stretching the limits—that’s what matters to me now.

Meet men and women from California, United States. This past March, for the FIRST time in 45 years, I STOPPED "chasing JOY" (by pursuing this/that) and in that short period of NOT "chasing" anything, I find that am FILLED with JOY! Unbelievable how that works.
Looking to meet "like-minded" women that want to enjoy this part of life. As an on/off dating site member, (4 years divorced) I have come to the the belief that this age bracket of women "seekers" are still "wound a little too tight" for me. If you call
"service people" often, use the phrase "business call" and are generally "busy", you have more anxiety in your life than most men
want in theirs. Personally, I have NO interest in traveling and having my time "scheduled" all the time. Been there, done that!
If you accept the notion on A and B-types, from my perspective, the women available AND that get on these sites, are
generally A-types as the B's tend to have less initiative for "hunting" a mate. A-types don't make the best pairings but not impossible!

RELAX! Your life experience is in the final phase and there is NOT some big beautiful place your headed for! Just like everything else in the universe, you have a LIFESPAN. It's a LOT more fun than NOT having one. Find the JOY! Dump the WORRIES!
Looking to meet that hard-to-find "b-type" that has yet to be discovered!
Peace

Date someone special from California, United States. I am the Director of the Karpeles Manuscript Museum, the world's largest private collection of original historical manuscripts and I have been a professional massage therapist for 37 years ...
I am a man who is ...
A continual explorer of life and its many facets of beauty
An insightful thinker, feeler, and poet
A kind and compassionate companion
I'm both grounded in life's process while seeing beyond the surface
I'm a lover of experience... and an experienced lover
I'm a good friend, a supportive listener, and an expressive soul looking for a special connection
And I would love to hear from you to share in life's journey...
I've spent my life exploring the world both outside and in and would enjoy meeting a woman with depth, and a natural curiosity to expand her inner horizons. My life touches both the physical and metaphysical realms; I'm easy to talk to and naturally curious about the interpersonal world as well. While seeking a meaningful connection, I also view relationships as a process to greater understanding and personal growth.
As a graduate of many self-actualization workshops and forums, I've enjoyed learning about communication between men and women, aliveness, and have especially developed a personal presence, integrity... and some knowledge, understanding and insight which I welcome sharing with you.

Meet a soulmate from California, United States. It is so funny, but there I was walking on the beach at 9:30, in Santa Barbara by East Beach.near my condo, full moon, ocean calm and it was a little breezey kind of cool out. Perfect night, why we live near the coast, and nobody out there but me. Yes real sad, just really wanted someone to walk and talk to, hold hands maybe steal a kiss, take a moment and embrace and not say a word.. I really wish there was that special someone with me. Ever go to a restuarant and see a couple just sitting ther, staring out to nowhere, not saying a word to each other, looking like they can't wait to get out of there, and they are the married ones, wow, what a shame, me talk talk talk, until you give me the slash across the throat to shut it. LOL.
Well I going off Match by the end of June. It's been an interesting ride to say the least, been duped a few times, hey it is part of the chance you take. But met some real lovely ladies too, . I am still looking for that one, yes for the rest of my life. Just too many things to do, but not by myself. It is really tough out there.
I enjoy dancing (all night long) to contemporary rock, like to travel locally and abroad, Costa Rica, Mexico and Italy, in the near future, Scuba dive anywhere, learning to golf(hope that's not a bad word). I am a giver who is looking for a giver, how can you go wrong?
As far as you go- just be you, open and honest, I don't expect perfection only sincereity. and hopefully we can have some of the same interests or learn each others..
Caution : if you act old, and don't look forward to having a good time, aren't interested in going places and experiencing new things, ., and love as if you never been hurt , please don't bother contacting me..

Date single man from California, United States. An open mind provides greater options in meeting the right person for a relationship - you just never know what might click! I will tell you a little about myself and hopefully it will spark an interest to find out more. There is no way one can describe oneself fully, nor what one wants. It is always amazing how many of my friends spend time with people who do not match their "characteristics".
Me - well, I work for myself and work hard. I love to travel and have been around the world many times, mostly in Africa, Asia, and South America. I like people who are very intelligent and love to learn and experiment. People, food, culture, especially that which I have not been brought up in is exciting, there is so much to learn from others. Food - I worry that I might die if I stop eating - you got to love food, wine, dancing and all that goes with living life!
Seems that a common profile statement is "No Drama!" ... Mmmmmm ... Seems like if there is going to be passion there will always be a chance of some drama. For me it is not about a little "drama", but, more importantly how we deal with it when "drama" occurs.
I want Passion in my relationship - I am willing to risk a little "drama".
Well, this is a start - now you have the chance to modify this narrative after you meet me! If you are interested please e-mail me. Hopefully you love using your brain and are not scared of challenges and experiments. Life is short, you must want to experience it to the fullest (between necessities like work of course!)
I am taking a rest from Match at the moment. You might find me on other sites. Hope that all is going well for whomever views my profile and I am sorry that i can not reply.

Meet men and women from Santa Barbara, United States. Well, first of all writing is definitely not my strong suit. I am a people person and make a lot more sense in live conversation. I enjoy spending my free time with my friends, or relaxing in my back yard, walking around museums or other places of interest, watching an entertaining movie or concert. I have very eclectic taste in music, art, and friends. Oh yes, food, I love food and sharing a meal is always a good use of free time. I have been known to enjoy a good car show, motorcycle race, fishing, or just a nice ride now and then. I work out just enough, and enjoy walking.
