Date men and women from United States / California / Santa Monica, 53 year old

Date someone special from Santa Monica, United States. New to Santa Monica! And to celebrate, I also just stopped smoking - next, to really focus on exercise again, because OMG, this is Santa Monica!
Don't let the "Cancer" sign fool you. I've got Scorpio rising, so I'm free spirited, yet focused on what matters most. And what matters most isn't what's in the head, but in the heart. For me, that means friends, my successful business, and ideally, that special relationship. Not one to date for its own sake, I'm in it for the long haul goal - a life-partner, best friend, companion.
I bring passion, loyalty, integrity of the highest order, intelligence, wit, laughter, empathy, humility (confidence doesn't have to mean ego) and focus to my work, and relationships.
I believe in working smart, not hard. Being as focused as I am when I do work allows me to have a lot of play time.
Everything about who I am as a person on the inside needs to be reflected back by the woman I choose to spend my precious time with. You don't need to have money, fame or fortune. While those are all bonuses, it's on the inside I care about most.
You're also going to need to have a wicked sense of humor, sarcasm and sharp-minded intellect if we're to truly get along. And be outrageously unconventional in some ways, because that's where the truest spice of life lies in waiting...
I travel several times a year speaking at industry conferences - Seattle, New York, Florida, and Vegas are all on my "at least once a year" list, typically for a week at a time so I can enjoy the local scene with great friends before or after whatever conference I'm speaking at.
Yet wouldn't it be even better when the two of us travel just for the fun and adventure of it? Maybe to the Caribbean, Hawaii, Europe? Or just up the coast to the bay area or maybe Palm Springs?
Of course I can be just as laid back when I'm not on the road - so after an invigorating walk or bike ride, kicking back and relaxing is just as much something I appreciate.
And I'll be honest - after years of working on improving my life in business, I'm only now refocusing in on my health. Several years ago I developed mild asthma - and have only just recently stopped smoking. So it would be great to have a partner to not be my motive for this - I've got that on my own with God. Instead, it's about being that bonus incentive ;-)
That's something I love about relationship - being there to encourage each other, be supportive of each others goals, be there to listen, sometimes not even needing to give feedback. Yet not afraid to offer it when it's needed either...
So come play with me. Live life to its fullest with me!

Meet people from Santa Monica, United States. I am pretty much your average guy (although I do actually read the profile and don't just look at the pictures). I think I have a pretty good sense of humor and I try to enjoy my life. I am happy with my career and truly adore my kids. I exercise nearly every day. I really enjoy eating, which is why I exercise nearly every day! Now I just want to find that special someone to share the rest of my life with.
I am looking for a woman to be my best friend, someone that I can share my thoughts with and vice versa. Someone that is comfortable with their life. A sense of humor is an absolute must. Obviously there must be a physical attraction, but the intellectual and emotional attraction is just as important. I want to find someone that I can talk to, laugh with and share my life with. Someone that makes it through life with a sense of humor. We all think we have one, but well... Someone that when I have a disagreement with a 3rd party will agree with me before gently showing me why I was wrong. And chances are better than average, I probably was wrong! You know, all of the stuff that everyone is probably looking for. Only mine is different.

Date a man from Santa Monica, United States. I enjoy new adventures and meeting new people that are compassionate and sincere. I have some great friends and family and would like to meet someone similar. I can be very romantic at times and looking for the right one.

Meet men and women from Santa Monica, United States. I have a lot of that right brain, left brain thing going on. I'm smart, love to learn new things and when I focus on accomplishing something, look out. I'm a bit quirky, but in a good way. I like to paint and draw and I love art in all it's forms. I'm spontaneous and always up for an adventure.
I'm very much into nature and the beauty around us but also like cities and find them fascinating to explore. I've traveled quite a bit and have lived up and down the East Coast and West Coast and a couple of places in between.
I love good food, wine and desserts. I'll try anything once and can be very happy with the taco truck down the street. I guess I am a bit of a foodie and especially like trying all kinds of ethnic foods. My musical taste run the gamut from classical to jazz to hip-hop to rock, yes even some country.
I am very attracted to creative types, a little quirky is good, spontaneous and not afraid to try something new is even better. I think integrity, good communication skills and a healthy dose of humor are all pretty important in any relationship, how 'bout you?

Date a soulmate from Santa Monica, United States. I'm smart, funny, easy-going, accomplished, unpretentious, tall, literate, well-traveled, entreprenurial, and not "full of myself".
Have one son, 23, graduated Caltech and now working at NASA. So I am pretty much free and unencumbered.
I own 2 small businesses, one teaching computer software design, that pays the bills, and a travel/photography business that I do for fun. I'm reasonably accomplished in my "first career" (teaching and writing books about computer software design), and my travel for that job often allows me photography opportunities. Have written 7 books on software design. That's enough of that, so I'm now switching to writing travel books.
I shoot panoramic, Virtual Reality photos of amazing travel destinations and resorts. Combine VR for Virtual Reality and resorts and you get the idea (and name) of my website. If you like photography add a "dot com" and check out the Virtual Tours. Imagine just being free to travel the world and take pictures and be able to generate income from the photography and you will understand why I'm always working on my travel/photography website in my spare time.
I'm pretty open minded about who I'd like to date...hopefully someone attractive, intelligent, youthful, of good character, affectionate, who loves to travel (and has the freedom to jump on the airplane with me). I don't want to be overly restrictive in any way with "selection criteria"...if we meet and we like each other, we'll know pretty quickly.
Here are a few places that I absolutely need to photograph but don't want to visit alone:
Cabo San Lucas (long weekend)
Greece (Mykonos, Santorini, Athens, Crete)
Rio de Janeiro (Ipanema Beach, Copacabana Beach, Sugarloaf)
Caribbean Islands (Anguilla, Antigua, St. Martin, St. John, St. Croix, etc.)
South of France (Cannes, Nice, St. Tropez, etc.)
Spain (Barcelona, Madrid, Ibiza)
Italy (Rome, Venice, Florence, Amalfi Coast)
Bora Bora (in one of those overwater bungalows)
I generally have a bunch of frequent flyer miles available to use. Want to help me use them?
I seem to get along best with ladies who have a bit of a naughty mind, or at the very least not deathly serious and kinda fun-loving (you know who you are so please send me a wink if that's you ; )
I love giving and getting massages so I hope you do too. Did I mention someone who likes to travel?
We might not match if...you're hell-bent on getting married (I have no plans to do that again), possessive, neurotic, have a nasty temper, look 15 years older than your photos, look 30 lbs heavier than your photos, You Capitalize Every Word In Your Profile (unless you can explain to me Why You Do That), are high maintenance and proud of it, are deeply religious (and would want to convert me), are more feminist than feminine, politically socialist, progressive, or far-left liberal...

Meet single man from Santa Monica, United States. I'm a creative who writes almost everything except songs. Writing merely two songs does not count. I have a small collection of guitars. I tend to make people laugh. Yes, I've written a comedy or two, sometimes based on my life. Not looking for more material, but that's when it seems to happen.
I'm grounded, and subject to guilt. Thanks, mom! I believe in karma. Which means I behave myself and wish to do good personally and in the world. Yes, I cook fairly well, but I don't want to be the resident chef in a relationship. Can someone please cook on occasion? (Organically, if possible)
.
I'm easy going, yet passionate about the right things. I listen... I've been known as "helper guy," assisting with careers, businesses, family issues, etc. But I'm recovering, and trying to put that role behind me! Of course, I'll always help.
Note I'm not a player.. More like a homebody with options. I'm also friend material...
I have a talented 13 year old daughter, and I share amicable custody with her mother. I'm occasional transportation, as well as the bank :-) She's like 13 going on 20. Has her own life.
I'll play almost any sport with a ball. Culturally, I like theater, museums, art galleries (helped put one together at Bergamot Station Arts Center), live music, etc.
What else can I say? I've got really good eye-hand coordination. And as a writer-musician, add good rhythm.
What am I looking for? Someone with a good sense of humor... bright, articulate, likes kids (well, one teenager), arty, optimistic, thoughtful, perceptive, and independent. Not much -- or at least well managed -- baggage. Comfortable with yourself, your life, your career, but perhaps looking for guy who will have your back and be a partner.
You're looking for a partner in every way. Relationships are important to you. Not over-scheduled, so you have enough time to spend with your man. I like dinners out, short range travel, and arty stuff.
Filtering stuff: If you are an over-scheduled super-single... I'm not into people sampling. And if your goal is to travel the world right now and are looking for a ticket to ride from a 'gentleman', I'm not retired yet. And I'd rather be on the water.
I played beach volleyball for years. So If I took my shirt off, you would be surprised that the bod you see is over 50 :-) I still have it, not much different below the neck than when I was 35.
Hopefully, you have a nurturing streak wider than dental floss. My daughter, Ms. Independent, doesn't need it. I do...
Is that too much to ask? Passion rules. Reason prevails.
Thanks for checking me out.

Date someone special from United States. I am loving, caring, honest, fun-loving, free but firm and I am an active person who enjoys cycling, reading, i love poetry books, walking on the beach and cozy candlelight dinners. I enjoy movies, traveling the desert, music for relaxation, the ocean sunrises and sunsets. I am open to trying different activities and up for any challenge.
I am looking for a woman who is affectionate, sincere, easygoing, with interests and characteristics similar to mine... someone who wants a meaningful, serious, long-term relationship...not just a few dates. I am looking for someone who has a great sense of humor and big heart...

Meet people from United States. I'm looking for someone that's looking for me. If we click, we'll know it, but you first have to roll the dice and say "Yes." Then we'll get together and spend time finding out about each other rather than basing our decision on a paragraph in a profile.

Date a man from United States. I like to laugh a lot and have fun, but also I am a thinker and enjoy more serious discussion and analysis. I would like a partner who does not mind participating in life, sharing experiences and pleasure together, seeing things in a new way and seeing new things. I am quite tactile, like to smile, touch, be sensual. I like to relax too, maybe people watch a bit, act silly sometimes, have fun. I like to help people out, socialize, love to cook sometimes.
I love to entertain . I also love to read, watch movies and comedies . like to go to music sessions (in the pub generally). I am naturally curious and I am very interested in people and places. I enjoy the spiritual as well as a good discussion about well, just about anything. I am passionate about my work and also enjoy my friends and my (small) family. I am often told I look young for my age, but I am just ordinary & down to earth. I am quite fit & do a lot of things, like jog, cycle, work! I really feel I have everything in my life, except someone special to share and enjoy things with. I will equally want a woman as same like me perhaps with more understanding.

Meet men and women from United States. I'm an architect and I love the arts, from painting & sculture to movies & music. I enjoy sharing time with interesting, intelligent people. People who are making things happen.
I'm looking for someone who is very warm, friendly, engaging, fun-loving, a people person, enjoys being physically affection, and is very comfortable sharing of themselves and their emotions; someone who appreciates the beauty of nature.
I am looking for a woman who is open-minded about spiritual pursuits and willing to explore what most likely will be some amazing experiences that this world has to offer.
I really enjoy music, and getting together with friends.
When I travel, I enjoy staying at nice hotels, that is designed well, maybe has unique character? I guess as an architect I just can't appreciate a poor quality hotel. The Ritz-Carlton and Four Seasons in Singapore were example I think of doing a hotel experience right. Though, growing up my family used to go on camping trips throughout the western states during summers and I still enjoy trips that include connecting with the awe inspiring forces of nature.
I know what it is like to have an amazing relationship. Who knows when that may happen again? Let's share some time together, have some fun and see if we can make some magic happen together?

Date a soulmate from United States. I sometimes work a lot but like to make every day special, whether it is cooking, seeing friends, going out or actually reading a book. If you already have your life together but would also like getting to know someone, get in touch with me. I travel overseas for work and pleasure at least 5 times a year. I am especially interested in China at this point but also would like to see nature in India and the South Pacific. I do not go on vacation to go to the beach or hang out by the pool. I would hope to meet someone who is kind and interested in life. I do not mean an energizer bunny, but someone strong with good morals and conviction and intelligence. Looking forward to meeting you.

Meet single man from United States. I am a creative professional (architect)with a great career, home and friends. Looking for the same for fun, friendship and romance. I enjoy my friends and the urban life and also enjoy the outdoors and camping within reason. I stay active and fit and like tennis and the gym. I decided I was going to try this avenue though I am fairly reluctant about the result. I am very open minded and enjoy the same in the people around me. I enjoy many cultural and social events.
