Date men and women from United States / Alaska / Anchorage, 41 year old

Date single man from Anchorage, United States. Me: I’m an active person who enjoys snowboarding, skiing, skate skiing, tennis, scuba diving, running, fishing, mountain biking, cooking, and travel, especially with that “special someone" as I am a romantice person who will give it all to a lady. I am open to a lot of things. The snowboarding and running are my focus though; I enjoy training and running in marathons.
I like to cook and like to experiment in the kitchen. I care about what I eat and I am somewhat of a wine enthusiast. I tend to be a passionate person in everything I do in career and personal life. I have a philosophy that it is not worth doing if you don't give it your all. I enjoy entertaining at home but admittedly don't do it much as I would like too. I enjoy traveling to new places and go beyond at least 3 times a year and during the dark season. I consider myself a dedicated father to my 10 year old daughter who always knows how to bring out the lighter side in me and she keeps me busy and I LOVE IT.
I am also a project manager who enjoys a very comfortable living while maintaining balance between my personal and professional life. I intend to travel abroad and work overseas some day but that is a ways out or unless life throws me a curve ball. On the weekends, I relax by working on the rock garden at home or on the firepit, my woodworking projects, home improvement, technical reading, hanging out with my daughter, and listening to music. I love music, mostly punk and grundge- as it is conducive to my persona.
Her: I hope to find someone with similar interests, but not a clone, and has a sense a humor and is willing to take on a little risk in the pursuit of happiness and fulfillment. I appreciate women who are independent but I am seeking balance with a real woman who desires companionship; that is why I am here. Any partner that would be involved with me, must be willing and want to be around kids and be good at it as I have 50% custody (there is no drama and it is awesome). Finally, someone who appreciates my strengths and support it, and yet understanding and patient enough to work through my shortcomings. which we all have them. Being a fun lady with profound femininity is a turn on for me.

Date someone special from Anchorage, United States. How I would describe my self is dependable. You tell me to do something and you can consider it done. I am honest and most of all faithful.

I enjoy helping him with his homework to having a SpongeBob film festival with popcorn and a ice cold coca~cola. I am an extremely hard worker and have a great job doing what I enjoy. I am very good with my hands from turning wooden bowls on a lathe to putting my sons 4-wheeler engine back together. I am a great cook from chinese food to mexican. However what I would have to say is the best is my B-B-Q. Anytime of the year, anytime of the day it does not matter, everything tastes better over a fire!! The cold left over steak/fajita from the fridge wrapped in a tortilla in the morning is the BEST!!! I am a good listener and enjoy a good conversation over a 2 shot vanilla latte.

All and all I am a Carhartt having, blue jeans, flannelshirt and ball cap wearing, loves his son and fishing too type of man.

Meet people from Anchorage, United States. I'm originally from California and lived in Silicon Valley most of my life. I also lived in Manhattan for a few years and then moved to Alaska almost five years ago. I love the outdoors and all that Alaska is about.
I enjoy surrounding myself with people that have a great outlook on life and naturally look at the glass as half full vs half empty. I enjoy being around others that realize that life is short and it's up to you to make the most of every day.
I also think of myself as a fun, spontaneous and easy going person who loves to travel and create great memories with great friends as often as possible. I love boating, bicycling, hiking and motorcycling in the summer and snow biking, snow shoeing and snow skiing, in the winter. I've been to 27 countries around the world and have ridden my mountain bike from Los Angeles to Washington D.C.
About six months ago I decided to get involved with an MMA workout routine and I love the intensity of the training and now I'm starting to train for the New York City Marathon which I have run a few times in the past.
I'm a professional that gets up early every morning, five days a week and works hard but rarely feels like I'm working because I love what I do. I've learned to create a healthy balance between work and play.
I'm interested in meeting new people right now and just seeing where things go, coffee can be a good place to start.

Date single man from Alaska, United States. I'm new to this online stuff so here goes:
You know what they say about results...if you keep doing the same thing over and over, expect to get the same results. Expecting a different result from the same, repeated action is the definition of insanity! *LOL* So...I am here, online looking to meet some nice people from outside my usual circle of friends. Companionship and friendship are important. We're social animals. If a deeper feeling develops out of those two emotions, then it's a bonus. I'm absolutely positive I'll find you if you feel the same. I'm not watching the clock though, I'm happy experiencing the journey.
My family is my top priority. Friends and career are extremely important because they help me do the things I like to do and they support me and my family.
Travel is one of my passions. If you love to travel, take me with you! I really, REALLY enjoy experiencing otheres' culture, language, foods and traditions. It's amazing what you discover about yourself as you look into other peoples' way of doing things. I've been so very fortunate to travel to many different countries and am looking forward to seeing more.
Who am I looking for? Someone who'll be upfront, funny and has a sense of humor. I love kids and am looking for someone who feels the same. Of course I want you to be attractive. What is attractive to me? Confidence. Don't be afraid to tell me what you are thinking. Show me you take care of yourself. Be kind to others, not just me. Is your smile genuine or are you forcing it?
My perfect match will have her own direction, opinions and motivations in life. Intelligent, articulate, healthy, strong, independent and career oriented women are very attractive to me.

Meet men and women from Alaska, United States. One of my favorite lyrics by Billy Bragg. The "Milkman" one, not the "ABOUT ME" one...
I just moved here from Hawai'i, at the end of October. I know, what a fool! Came to see my sister, decided to stick around. Most of my exercise has been snow shoveling. Liking it so far, now I'd maybe like to make some friends, or more...
Here's some stuff about me...
*I have a dry sense of humor. I think that sarcasm is in the ear of the beholder. If you laugh (even if you feel "dirty" afterward), it was appropriate.
*I read a lot. I haven't owned a TV for many a year. Mainly fiction, some poetry (Bukowski, Li Po). I generally don't watch sports, excepting the World Cup, or a well advertised cockfight.
*Musically I listen to many genres, but I focus mainly on old punk (Dead Kennedy's, F.Y.P., Minor Threat), ska (Desmond Dekker, Hepcat), folk (John Prine, John Wesley Harding, Dan Bern), and hip hop (Sage Francis, Eyedea and Abilities). I have not seen much music since I have been up here, but I did see Talib Kweli at the Bear Tooth, and thought it was a good show.
*I like to talk about anything, and can usually play devil's advocate (that is what she is paying me for, after all).
*I am a bit of a grammar Nazi, and therefore I don't text, as it drives me batty to see words misspelled intentionally.
*I don't get hints. Not that no one gives them to me, as I am sure they do, I just don't grasp them.
*I smoke cheap cigars and drink moderately priced scotch.

Date someone special from Alaska, United States. I can't describe my ideal match, maybe she knows who she is. Some of the cold hard facts are that I am brutally honest to a fault and it seems to not help, though I can look myself in a mirror to shave or for any other reason. I'm not perfect by any stretch of the imagination but Work Hard and come by what I have honestly. I have friends here that I have known since high school, and that has been a decade (ok 2 decades) ago. Those that have remained my friends appreciate my honesty and are honest themselves. I don't much care what you look like, whether or not you work, or much about any thing else, address me kindly and I will be the southern gentleman. Looks and money and such are the icing and not the cake.

Meet people from Alaska, United States. I love to fish!!! I spend a lot of time in the outdoors year round. The cold doesn't stop me. The rain doesn't slow me down. I do enjoy sitting by a camp fire, berry picking, and leisurely walks through Kincaid Park and along the coastal trail. I am a father to my children first, and that takes priority in my life. I am committed to being a great father to my children and believe strong, moral, family values and faith are paramount. I am an open minded person and believe that I am a good communicator and enjoy people who can communicate their thoughts and feelings well. I'm a more traditional guy that is definitely a romantic.
I was born and raised in Alaska and much of my family still lives in Bristol Bay. I love Alaska, but do enjoy traveling abroad. However, I don't see moving away from Alaska anytime soon. I have an exciting and dynamic career and continue to attend college when I can in order to complete my graduate degree. In the winter months I lead a unique volunteer effort to help people living in rural Alaska through the use of dog sled teams to travel throughout the state on expeditions that bring resources to communities with the aim of reducing the high rates of suicide, substance abuse, sexual assault and violent crime.
I hope to meet someone who is willing to consider communicating with me despite the distance I may live from them. I am not into drinking or the bar scene so if you are looking for a guy that likes to go out to the bars then don't waste your time with me. I would like to know what has led you to this type of forum to meet people?
I look forward to hearing from you soon and remember.... Make It A Great Day!!!

Date a soulmate from Alaska, United States. Nice guy seeks nice girl. A bit shy introverted, kind caring honest and real. I love girls just being themselves. I'm a bit tired from work so I can't come up with a great detailed essay here but I'll have a coffee and get back to ya. I LOVE girls though!

Meet a man from Alaska, United States. Hello! Glad you'r reading this.....my pictures must be ok.lol. I'm a pretty normal guy in a good way. I love my family and friends. I've led a fairly strange life so far as far as experiencing Alaska. I'm told that I'm caring, honest, and sometimes funny! My picture isn't a very good one, but I do look like that :) Before you read any further I have to admit I do not know what I'm looking for!! Or what I want really (lot's of profiles say I'm looking for someone who's confident, knows who they are and what they want....yada yada yada.) I mean I know I want someone to share my life with. A women who makes me feel good, and that I can't get out of mind. Now who that is....what they should be like....how I get there......well that's the hard part. I am as confused as the next guy. I love xcountry skiing b/c it's so relaxing, and downhill even more. I like to get the most out of life! I like to get outdoors as much as possible. Not for super strenuous stuff usually, but just fishing, skiing, camping,walking, I'm sure you get the idea. I love going to bluegrass festivals and fishing in the summer, and skiing saturday and sunday in the winter (at Alpenglow usually, but sometimes Alyeska). Maybe on a powder day during the week I might get sick. (cough, cough) I find that I generally have some kind of plans for the weekend. I do like to sit at home, but like to get out, see music, people, have fun. Personality wise, I'm rather shy in a way......I'm very open and talkative initially, but usually am too shy to get any closer. I usually notice a women likes me about a month after she decides she doesn't any more as I'm pretty clueless at times. I really like stupid jokes, and puns. I love campfires. I love watching sports on TV. I'm a rabid Cleveland Browns fan. I like a cold beer on a hot day, and wine with a good meal. See... I'm a pretty normal guy. I'd like this internet thing to work out, and find someone special. I do still believe in love at first sight, but have yet to experience it. I am not scared of children, but am not looking to be a dad. If I ended up dating a single mom, of course I'd have to get along with the child, but would 100% want to get to know the mom first. Mainly though I'd just like someone to have fun with. Someone who is similar enough to me that we could hang out, and be together. I'm looking for a long term romance, but am very open to short time fireworks. Really, if you are honest, attractive, fairly fit or somewhat athletic, smart enough to hold and carry on a conversation I'm looking for you. It would help it you liked to fish, camp, and be outdoors, but sometimes different is good too. Writing this stuff is tough, how about if you take the time to email me if you'd like to know more I promise to reply? Thanks for reading and have a great day!!
