Date men from United States / Arizona / Mesa, 51 year old - page 7

Date a soulmate from Arizona, United States. I have not really been in the dating world for a while so this is kind of awkward. I am young for my age (if that makes any sense) but have experienced a considerable amount in my time.
My idea of fun can be anything from going out to a movie or perhaps a museum, or just staying in and finding something to do that is entertaining. I love the beach although I live in the desert (go figure). I have been a Certified Chef almost all of my adult life, which is probably why I do not particularly enjoy going out to restaurants, maybe once in a while.
A few years ago I decided to return to college and change careers but I was not sure what I wanted to do. I am still taking classes and have a little better idea at this point.
I am originally from New York (Oyster Bay, Long Island) and moved to Arizona twelve years ago, I like the heat. I have also lived in Florida and attended culinary school in Le Harve France, which seems like a lifetime ago. Now for the really awkward part, what do I hope to find?
I guess I should mention that I am looking for someone who is considerate and thoughtful. Someone who has a life but also has room for an additional friend. Someone who can find enjoyment in the insignificant things in life that sometimes prove to be remarkable. A person who does not have an insurmountable amount of baggage from the past, we all have some to varying degrees. I am not totally unscathed by the past but I do not dwell on it either. I guess I could ramble on about what I hope to find in a person through this method of meeting a potential friend, or maybe even a partner. But the truth is that I am actually a little unsure of who I am looking for. Hopefully I can at least make some new friends.

Date someone special from Arizona, United States. East going, laid back, jeans and tee kinda guy. Nothing to prove to anyone. Comfortable in any situation. Honesy, loyalty and integrity rule my life! I enjoy camping, fishing, shooting, road trips and exploring new places. I still think I'm 25, serious when it's needed, but playful most of the time. Life is too short not to have fun. Always look forward, if you're looking back, you''ll walk into a wall or fall in a hole.
Seeking a younger, in shape, hwp, tom boy types, that likes new and exciting things.

Meet single man from Arizona, United States. I guess the most important thing to me, is being a good Dad. My children are the center of my being, they make me laugh, they make me cry, but most of all they make me happy. It's been a hard transition to make...going from a life where I was around them everyday to the roll of "the divorced Dad" but it also makes me cherrish every moment I spend with them.
So what about my other side? Well...I like to laugh, I like to think that I have a good since of humor, and many times I find myself laughing at myself, which I guess is not a bad thing. I am honest, hard working, and I like to think I'm a bit old fashioned....I believe that being courtious and respectiful to others is one of the simplest ways to spread goodwill.
What else...I guess I'm looking for someone who can laugh with me, who enjoys getting outside, who does'nt mind a long mountain bike ride, or a full day of skiing, but at the same time can enjoy an evening on the couch. I look forward to meeting someone who is spontaneous, that has a since of adventure, who wants to travel and see other cultures, who takes life one day at a time, and who accepts people for who they are.
I guess I want someone to live life with and to love life with, and that no matter where we are... we're happy to be there together!
Just to let you know, I never, never ever, thought I'd be sitting in front of a computer looking for someone to spend a part of my life with, and I don't know, maybe this works....maybe it doesn't... but I know I'm a good man and hopefully you're out there somewhere.
