Date a man from Alabama, United States. I'm a traditional man who's lead a nontraditional life. This path has lead me to discover both wonderful and challenging situations - I'm only the stronger because of this. Who I am allows me to relate to and experience deep connections with a variety of people. This appreciation of the many shades of the human spectrum makes life rich and very interesting.
I have a strong creative impulse which has been satisfied with work in radio and video production. For years I produced and hosted a live interview show focusing on theatre and performance at a wonderful radio station in Berkeley. Teaching has brought me great satisfaction as I've explored various cultures thru the lives of my students, most of whom originate from far-away places. Over the last five years I've returned to documentary filmmaking - it nurtures the very deepest parts of me.
I'd love to meet and begin to develop a passionate, loving relationship with an empathetic, soulful woman with a big heart and the ability to laugh at the inconsistencies and absurdities of life. Keeping that balance between 'lightness' and 'heaviness' is essential, especially in this crazy world of ours. I want us to enjoy the remainder of our lives and nurture each other as we discover and create the balance that is essential for our relationship to work.
Meet single man from Piedmont, United States. My friends describe me as "a good guy. Loyal. Dependable. Honest. Energetic. Always there when needed. Bright and well-spoken. Great to be with. Generous and considerate. A gentelman with great integrity. Caring. Supportitive."
I'm seeking that special someone who is a kindred spirit, willing to establish a friendship and then evolving that into a relationship.
There's no such thing as perfection as we're all "human balance sheets" with pluses and minues. But I desire a kindred and adventurous spirit who wants to be wanted and is willing to share life's next chapters.
Date someone special from Piedmont, United States. More than 3 years ago I lost my wife to cancer after a "long illness" and a long marriage. My daughter has also recently married and moved to Connecticut so it's just me and the dog. The dog, a Welsh Terrier, is a great companion, even though he's blind and almost deaf, but not a great conversationalist.
I like golf, travel, dining out, reading, automobiles and almost everything new. I'm a lawyer who probably spent too much time building a practice and not enough time with my family while my kids were small. I think I've learned my lesson and have severely cut back on my work schedule. I also am a former part owner of a minor league sports team in the Bay Area. I recently took a couple of trips to China and I'm looking forward to more travel, particularly in Italy which I really enjoy. Someday I want to do the National Geographic around the world private jet trip.
People tell me that I'm friendly and funny. I think of myself as bright, well read and intelligent. I'm probably a little too sarcastic and quick to judge other people but I'm trying to get better about that. I do not suffer fools well and have a tendency to say so.
I'm not really looking for one particular type of woman but I prefer someone who is smart, attractive, well dressed, takes care of herself and is open to new things and travel to new places. A golfer would be a plus but not a necessity. Most important is somebody who I can talk to and who is interested in things and interesting to be around
Meet men and women from Piedmont, United States. I am from the beautiful city of Naples, Italy. I am happy about my life, passionate about my job and grateful for my family and friends. I enjoy leaving a healthy life style with the awareness that every cloud has a silver lining.
My ideal match….?
My ideal match….?
I am attracted to women who are authentic, expressive and affectionate. I appreciate women who enjoy foreign cultures and languages, and cannot live without finding beauty in simply things in life. A romantic at heart.
Date people from Alabama, United States. I enjoy traveling, working, and learning new things. After practicing law and building homes, I am now trying to write. My interest is in Chinese American history. I also maintain an interest in real estate.
I am looking for someone who is attractive with a good sense of humor. I have traveled through much of Asia and Western Europe and would like to meet someone who also enjoys traveling.
Meet men and women from United States. Former Wall Street Banker (the decent kind, one who financed good companies, and did not take money from widows nor children. I.e., not a stock shuffler), I took a sabbatical year to travel, then moved to California to become a teacher and school finance manager, then father. I became a professional photographer, a lacrosse coach and referee, and learned Photoshop and Adobe Lightroom in depth and helped others to use them. Also coached soccer, baseball, basketball and was a Scout leader when my son was young.
It'd be wonderful to share my life with a woman who is confident and happy, and one with whom I can form a real bond of love, respect, and trust.
I like to travel, but also enjoy home time. Interests are wide, from sailing to most sports, to photography, movies (and films!), cooking and good restaurants, to the SF Symphony, legit theatre, especially Marin Shakespeare's productions. I serve several charitable organizations, including The USS Potomac, Stanford-Camron House and Marin Shakespeare Company.
I love movies of all types except pure action or horror movies. I like all comedy, be it in movies, stand-up, tv specials or series. Oh, yeah!: Long walks on moonlit beaches; cozy fires; candlelit dinners; dark chocolate baths, and many other romantic notions are a part of me, but seem too trite to list, so I won't mention them, O.K.?
I love our English language, and for fun dabble in English, American and Canadian accents (there are lots in each country, eh?). I know grammar good, and fervently hope that you have a sense of humor about this, even in the absence of smilies!
If you like to laugh and make others laugh, can see the ironies in life, but still love it, you may be someone I'd really like to be with. If you're a climber (either social or mountain), a bleeding heart or a cold one, we won't be a match.
Date a man from United States. Many years ago, a multi-talented man was referred to as a Jack of all trades. Although I have worked in the same profession for over 32 years, I still think of myself as a Jack of all trades. It would be disingenuous of me to write that I enjoy walks on moonlit beaches or picnics in the rain. However, I do enjoy hiking and barbecues. As for hobbies, I enjoy astronomy, electronics, music, chess, exploring California’s historical sites, and much more. I am not much of a television watcher, though. I consider myself to be nonjudgmental, and I expect the same in a friend. Above all, I value honesty. Although I consider myself to be an honest person, I do not believe in being brutally frank. Since I am not a paragon of virtue, I do not expect the reader of this advertisement to be one, either.I believe that, if I try to describe what I believe to be an ideal match, I might miss the chance of meeting the ideal match. Since everyone is different, I believe that trying to pigeonhole them is a waste of time. I would assume that most adults realize that it is the chemistry thing, which determines the potential success of a relationship.
Personally, I believe that in a relationship, both parties should be able to accommodate the reasonable needs and desires of the other. I also believe that a relationship is a partnership of equals.
If I were to characterize the ideal match, it would be that the two of us share the same values. This does not mean that we would have to be in lockstep with every issue, but that we are at least marching to the same drummer.
Meet a girl from Alabama, United States. I am career oriented but looking for a partner who can appreciate my traditional family values. I am down to earth. I am adventurous, enjoy eating and traveling. I value my family and friends. I like to watch movies. I am attracted to positive people who are interested in shaping our communities for a better future. I am looking to share my life with someone extraordinary.
Date people from United States. I just moved to the Bay Area so like you I decided to give this a shot.
Here are some sound bites about me; I was in 9 weddings in the last 5 years….my close friends go back to pre-school and kindergarten….friends and family mean everything to me....I have lived in 4 cities in the last 7 years following my career, which is what brought me out West. Things I love are; coffee in the morning, running in the cold, hiking with a good friend, Bar Method, Steve Yzerman, fashion, apres ski, fall in the midwest, drinking wine, Pebble Beach, energy of big cities yet the quaintness of small towns, making dinner for friends, trying new restaurants, staying in to watch a movie, the outdoors, the first snowfall, engaging conversation, and of course chivalry! Travel is high on my list...I studied in Italy so i was able to travel all over Europe and have been fortunate to live/explore some great areas like Laguna Beach, Colorado, and Chicago.....recently I just got back from Guatemala which was an eye opening and humbling experience.
The people closest to me would say I'm personable, loyal, friendly, outspoken yet well spoken, observant, fun, sarcastic, intelligent and hard working. I believe the foundation of a good relationship is friendship, trust, chemistry and laughter.
So, who am I looking for? Somone with character, natural humor, innate chemistry, sense of self, sensitivity, confidence (not arrogance), drive, manners, and intelligence. Ideally, I'd like to meet someone who holds his own around my friends, keeps me on my toes, and brings something to the table. I like a guy that can rock a suit as well as a tee shirt and flips, has a passion, and doesnРІР‚в„ўt take himself too seriously. Flakes, meat heads, and game players it's better to just move along, but for you geniune, smart, funny guys out there that are still reading this, feel free to reach out!
Meet men and women from Alabama, United States. I love interesting intelligent conversation above all. I am the kind of person that can talk to anyone anywhere. I am a lady that can go to a movie or travel alone (I recommend it to my girlfriends). Im a person that loves nature and loves the city. I am just as comfortable in a dress as I am riding a horse(which I do 2-3x a week). My friends would say I'm friendly, sweet and loyal. My mother will tell you that I was precocious kid that wanted to save animals and the kids in Africa. I have a passion for life. I'm working to complete my JD and later I see myself in the field of politics. I have friends that are fun-loving people as well as quiet observers. I enjoy board games Backgammon anyone?? I am an avid traveler and I've live in two countries(Portugal and Mexico) and four states. I've traveled to roughly 20 or so countries including Syria and Lebanon(loved it) and still counting of course. I love exploring the city plus the beautiful state of California. I drive along the coast checking out the many small beach towns. I love restaurants and taco trucks I love lots of cuisines. I like to cook and channel Ina or Giada when I'm in the kitchen. I enjoy the sun and the snow. I ski and board. I like Belgium beers and red wines that have a elegant finish. I like my cheeses creamy and a little stinky - I love to eat healthy but enjoy a warm baked chocolate chip cookie. I enjoy shopping at the farmers market and the wind blowing in my face.
I'm looking for someone that has a strong heart who can move through life with gentleness, kindness and laughter. A person that doesn't take themselves too seriously. A person who is happy on the inside and a joy to be around. Someone considerate and compassionate who shares similar values such as open communication, loyalty and honesty. A person with big dreams and the energy to make them reality.
Date men and women from Alabama, United States. SWF looking for SM for LTR. Isn't that how this was done back in the day? About me, huh? I'm trying to figure out the whole internet dating/meeting people thing. I'm not looking for someone to complete me but to simply enhance what I already have going on. Im a mom to 2 amazing kids, I volunteer for many organizations, Im president of a 501c.3 that raises money for the arts in the schools, I coach girls cheerleading (mostly to watch football and basketball on friday nights!), I am starting a new business (I'm a hair stylist and I LOVE it), and I am ready to have a few less lonely Friday nights (and Saturday, Sunday, Monday....).
I'm originally a farm girl from Wisconsin and I am a tomboy at heart but I love my girlie side too. Growing up in my neighborhood of 17 boys and 3 girls I learned to throw a football, catch toads and salamanders... but I clean up pretty well, too!

Meet people from Alabama, United States. I am someone who enjoys a good run, a tough work out and not afraid to have beer and pizza after to celebrate. Being healthy is very important as are my friends and family. I achieve balance with my work with outside activities and want someone who can share that balance. I believe I have a great sense of humor and a big heart.
I grew up in MA and moved from Denver. What does that say?? Well I guess I am an East Coast girl who has learned how to expand her horizons, how to snowboard on REAL snow and how to relax.
Now about what I am looking for because I think it is easier to find out more about me in person whether it be for a cup of coffee or a drink so drop me an email.
You are someone who is honest and not afraid to be themselves and always enjoys a good laugh. I am also looking for someone who can put up and give back to my playful banter. Hopefully you share in the same enthusiasm for exercise whether it be running, snowboarding, biking or something else.
You can wear flip flops, t-shirt and jeans to being polished without being tortured.
