Date a soulmate from Arizona, United States. I’m looking for someone who wants to share the joys of life with me. I don’t have a preconceived view of what our relationship has to be. Time will answer that question. Sharing some good times together and getting better acquainted is a good place to start. The woman I am seeking is successful within her own realm and emotionally available for a healthy relationship.
My match would be youthful, thoughtful, energetic, kind, healthful, and tolerant. I'm wanting to do some traveling so it would be nice if you are a bit adventurous. (I'm planning a trip to London right now). Although I'm retired, there is no requirement that you be. The quality of our relationship is more important than the amount of time we spend together. We should each have our own interests and then join together to share fun times.
On the age thing: My age as posted and my photos are current. Some people on match don’t think it’s important to post their real age or current photos. To me that’s basic. Relationships are based on trust. Most people have a hard time believing my age. We all age differently and I’ve invested a lifetime in healthful living (although I’m not a slave to a rigid program).
Before moving to Scottsdale, I lived in Portland, OR. I've worked all over the country. In my life I’ve had a variety of experiences including: Serving as a hospital CEO, owning for 20 years my own healthcare development/consulting firm, developing a retirement center company located in the Carolinas, serving as an Air Force Medical Evacuation officer, working in law enforcement, designing and operating websites, and more recently, working as a Volunteer Coordinator for the U.S. Forest Service in Tonto National Forest.
Politically I'm a pragmatic person. Issues these days are complex and deserve thoughtful and honest discussion. If you consider yourself to be a "very conservative" person, it's not likely we would be a match.
If you feel we might have some things in common, I hope you’ll drop me a note.
Meet single man from Arizona, United States. I am loving family man with four great children, who gave me nine beautiful grandchildren. I have a positive and optimistic attitude with a great laugh, personality and a young mind. I love entertaining my family, when I see them, since they live back in Chicago and friends over a glass of wine or a backyard babacue. I enjoy the the outdoors from golfing three days a week, hiking, swimming, fishing, biking and walking hand and hand on the beach or wherever.
I am looking for that special lady who is caring, loving, sharing, enjoys communicating, the outdoors, who is sincere, and loves life. That special lady wants to grow together, who enjoys traveling, be it Hawaii, the Caribbean, a get-away weekend or day trips exploring or just walking hand and hand on the beach. Special times are relaxing by the fire pit developing a bucket list over a glass of wine, a late night dip in the pool or cuddling on the couch watching a movie. I love a romantic dinner at that special quaint restaurant or fixing a candle light dinner over the stars.
Date someone special from Arizona, United States. Having a positive outlook in life I believe we'll soon meet and wonder why we've not met before now. You'll discover that I'm a man of integrity who is trustworthy and dependable, who values family and friends, loves animals especially horses, the great outdoors and places a high priority on staying active, fit and healthy...no slouch potato here...I'm a devoted runner and don't own golf clubs or a motorcycle....I'm a cowboy at heart in love with the western lifestyle. I have an easy going personality, calm and collected and very people oriented, easy to talk to and laugh with and quite comfortable in any social situation.
After spending many years living in a big city with a good career I'm now enjoying the clean air and beauty of Sedona while pursuing many interests. Traveling to Tanzania in '06 and climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro followed by a 3 day photo safari was a real kick as was running the Machu Picchu marathon on the Inca Trail. I also enjoy traveling the back roads of Arizona with the top down while taking in the diversity of this beautiful state. I have a strong interest in national and world news and follow politics closely, I'm a Conservative and believe a Liberal or left leaning middle of the roader would not be a good match.
I would enjoy meeting an active and adventurous woman with a sharp mind, sense of humor, physically fit, retired or close to it, has time to travel and who also believes the best is yet to come. She and I both desire to find true happiness in a forever relationship where love and respect grows continuously. If you see a good match here then I would enjoy hearing from you.
Meet a man from Arizona, United States. Please read my last sentence first! I was born, raised and attended college in South Dakota, lived in Italy for two years while in the Air Force (toured Europe playing basketball for the Air Force), lived in the beautiful Maryland countryside and worked in the Washington DC area for 25 years, retired from a Defense Dept. Agency and then moved to Arizona to be near friends and family. I love Arizona. I am divorced with no children but family is very important to me. Mom, two brothers and their families all live within 15 miles of where I live. My other brother and his family live in Minnesota in the summer and Florida during the winter. I do have two step-children that I love dearly. They live back East. I am blessed with many close friends. I am very fun-loving, athletic, independent, financially secure, spontaneous, even-tempered, flexible, optimistic, adventuresome, honest, and have a passion for life. I worked here in Arizona in the mortgage industry and now am fully retired and love to travel. I especially enjoy the Del Mar area in California. Colorado in the summer is breath-taking (had enough snow growing up) and also love Tahoe and San Francisco Bay area. I also enjoy New England and am looking forward to visiting the Great NW (never been). I enjoy the desert but love the mountains and the beaches. I like to stay active and play golf (not very well but I really enjoy it). I love laughter and trustworthy people. I am a very happy person and equally at ease in jeans or "dressed". I do enjoy early mornings on the patio with coffee and reading the paper and love the sunsets. I value trust, loyalty, honesty, passion, kindness, openness and sensuality. I am looking for that "special lady" to share the good and bad times. I definitely believe in chemistry and will not settle unless I feel it is right for both of us. I am a blessed and happy person and want to slide into the golden years with an enthusiastic, loving partner and companion. I do not like endless drama. Let's compromise and enjoy this life's journey. If you do NOT have a picture, do not waste my time and yours, you will NOT receive a response from me.... sorry.
Date a soulmate from United States. I AM PROBABLY TO INTROVERTD FOR MY OWN GOOD, THAT IS PROBABLY THE REASON I AM STILL SINGLE, I JUST DON'T HAVE IT IN MYSELF TO WALK UP TO A PERSON AND START ANY KIND OF CONVERSATION. BUT IF I AM AROUND PEOPLE I WILL OPEN UP AND ENJOY MEETING NEW PEOPLE AND BEING AROUND THEM. I AM DEFINATELY NOT WHAT MY ASTROLOGICAL SIGN SAYS I AM. IF I MEET A NICE LADY, I WILL OPEN UP AND PROBABLY BORE YOU TO TEARS WITH MY TALKING.
Meet single man from United States. I'm a retired Airline Pilot after a nice 39 year career, and still enjoy occasional travel , even though I'm not getting paid for it anymore. I certainly have lots of hours on me in those long- silver tubes. I have the facial lines to prove it. They must be experience lines, not age lines of course. I've been pressurized too often.
I had a great career and would still be doing that , but Federal age limits rule in airline business(only), so they finally kicked me out. I'm one of the lucky ones, who really enjoyed what he did for a living, and never hated going to work. 'When you're too lazy to work, and too nervous to steal, you fly for a living. '
I also flew/fly at times, when I want, seasonal, the large Fire Tankers since my airline retirement, dropping retardants on those wildfires in Calif, and AZ. Definately not fun flying, but a part time in -demand occupation. It allowed me to stay in the large aircraft , and help those folks below to save their homes. I just may do some more of that during the fire season now.I just call and put myself back on the list with that phone call. Other than the previous, I still pilot for pleasure once in a while.
I like to travel often to Hawaii and the Pacific, a which is easy to do, and still one of my favorite spots which I never get tired off. I still believe the best seafood is right there also, especially in Hawaii. I know lots of good places. I'm a beach lover, and love the water.
The nice easy pace of the Pacific is a winner in my book. Very relaxing and beautiful for sure .
Looking for a honest lady who's not too complicated , without too many problems, and the ones she has, are hopefully not making her problems, her 'problem'.
Light baggage is ok...maybe a' carry-on.' You ladies are complex creatures, and I like that very much about you, it makes you very interesting, but, heavy baggage and problems will eat you alive .
I like a good sense of humor, as I have one also. I like women who are not extreme high maintenance, but do take the time to take care of themselves.It shows when you do that of course. I don't mind waiting a bit for you either.I understand it.
I moved here to North Scottsdale ,7 years ago, in 2005, from Napa, California, after 36 years there. I'm not a snowbird. Bought one of those 'fixer-upers' here in a decent area. Still lots to do to it, as it doesn't ever end as we all know. It nice and comfortable so far. It's a casual but clean house.
Took me a couple years here to acclimate to the summers(especially during monsoon humidity) like most of us.
I still travel every now and then to the San Francisco Bay area to cool off, as I have family and friends still there. Before Napa, I lived in Walnut Creek, Ca, South Florida, and the western suburbs of Chicago. Also, lived in Newport Beach, Ca for a short time in the 80's, and ,I lived in Hawaii , many times, when I was based there , on and off, with the airline. Kept a place there off and on during those times, but always kept my home in Napa, also.
I grew up in the western suburbs of Chicago, when it was a nice place to live and with good schools. Moved out at age 21. Still have many school friends back there I hear from, and a couple of them I hadn't seen in 45-plus years, visited me here recently. They(the alumni) are planning a 55 year reunion in 4 years, and I plan on attending. Should be fun, as my class alumni has remained very active with many events back there, all these years. I missed the 50th..
I have a nice life, and will have no problem sharing it with the right lady. I have been divorced 8 years now, and we had a 'nice' divorce. I have NO baggage from that divorce..NONE.
I'm not a serial dater, I am a one woman type of man. I don't need a nurse, or a housekeeper, or a cook. I'm not here for that.
If you have 'money' that's nice, I'm not after it. If you don't have money, I don't care. If you really do like to cook, I'll help you. .

. super nice guy...chronic sense of humor... intelligent...absolutely positive...totally spontaneous... currently splitting time between arizona and southern california. I believe the world is mostly good...and if you are the same...you know that we pay a price for that ...but you also know that it is worth it. I am Tall (6'3") and I enjoy my consulting work immensely as it allows me to utilize my leadership and motivational skills over a wide area...I was born in Los Angeles and have been divorced since 91. One grandfather was from Russia...the other from San Francisco.....I enjoy travel to Maui and Paris. Enjoyed Australia and for many years made an annual pilgrimage to New England in the Fall... I have a firm belief that ..."when we walk to the edge of all the light we have...and take the step into the darkness of the unknown...that one of two things will happen. There will be something solid for us to stand on...or we will be taught to fly.
...LOOKING FOR a lady that is intelligent, honest, warm, super spontaneous, adventuresome, caring, terrific sense of humor, likes all kinds of music, LOVES to travel, shamelessly affectionate, overwhelmed by the spiritualness of natural beauty...and most importantly...one who thinks she is 'the' best kisser in the world and willing to prove it!...repeatedly. I am seeking more fun and intimacy in my life. That is my priority. I have a very full life with the VERY best family and friends...love my work...so an intimate and fun forever relationship with one happy lady would round things out nicely. "Most people yearn for something exceptional...something so inspiring that they'd want to risk everything for that passion...but few would act on it."
and like waylon jennings:
"I've always been different with one foot over the line
Winding up somewhere one step ahead or behind
It ain't been so easy but I guess I shouldn't complain
I've always been crazy but it's kept me from going insane".....
....more waylon:
If you're in a bind, with a troubled mind
I'm a mountain, come on and climb
Because you look so good, to be so down
It won't take much girl, to turn it all around
Come with me, come with me
The feeling's free, just come with me
Will get on a cloud girl, and ride it high
Say hello sun, as we sail bye
I'll take you where, you've never been before
Once we're there, you'll cry for more
If it's dark in your world, come walk in mine
My love's a light babe, it's on all the time
. Hello ladies. First off, I would like to say that I am still searching for my special lady, one who is my best friend and likes to do things together with her guy. I am fairly laid back and somewhat of an old fashioned type of guy. I love being in the mountains with the tall pines and spruces. Lived my whole life in the mountains. I have a good job with all the ammeities( health ins., vacation, sick leave, 401k, etc...) and plan on retiring in less than 9 years. Not into serial dating, just need that one lady who can make me happy. Looking for no drama but I know everyone has baggage, including me. I have two teenage daughters but they live on the other side of the country. Miss them dearly. I am very affectionate and loving and would require my partner to be the same (that can be so fun) ! Never have done any drugs and I rarely drink. If you are looking for someone to go to a nightclub or bar with, I am definetly not your guy. I am somewhat of a homebody and enjoy watching tv and movies. I like to go to car shows, the drags, going out to eat, antique shops, yard sales, hikes and drives out in the mountains, visiting new places to explore and making new memories, and going on weekend excursions. Love visiting Ruidoso, NM on occasion. Care to come along with me ? Will just about try anything new. I am organized and timely, but can also be spontaneous too ! I like to go flying when I get a chance ! Plan on retiring soon ! I own my own home , that sits on 5 acres - horse property. Love animals !
