Date men from United States / Alabama / Mount Hope, 30 year old

Date a soulmate from Alabama, United States. To be honest I have had this account for about 2 years. I finally pulled the trigger but I have no idea where to start or how to begin. Here I go:
I have always known what I would like in life, and I go for it. Would like to meet someone who knows what she would like and go for it. I like to make people laugh, but new people I meet don't get my humor. Most of my friends say I should be a comedian.
I live in San Diego CA, in a three bedroom house. Live close to downtown San Diego, I enjoy heading downtown with friends and family. Dive bars are also good if I just feel like having a few drinks without the Downtown feel. In with the hip things going on in this crazy world but also old fashioned. Like opening up doors and pulling the chair back when a women is about to sit.
I am looking for my mate to be attractive (to me). She has to have a strong connection with her family. She must have a sense of humor. Someone who can take care of herself financially and physically. But can still accept help from me. She should be able to enjoy life and not sweat the small stuff.
A first date would not be at the movies. It would be at a nice small romantic bistro, this way we can chat and get acquainted with each other.
You can say I’m a family man; I don't have kids but would love to have kids one day. My families are very close and love the company of each other but we also like being alone sometimes.
I would like to find and share what I have to offer with someone who also has some of the same values as me. Someone who would also like to take cruises and travel and explore what the world has to offer.
One thing I do ask is that someone takes the time to know me before they judge me.
I would like to have something similar to what they had in Wicker park Serendipity.
I wonder: Could this person be you?
