Date men and women from United States / Arizona / Phoenix, 37 year old - page 3

Date single man from Arizona, United States. Hello! I am a straight forward independent man with a fun sense of humor. I have 3 wonderfully bright children, a son whom is 17 and 2 beautiful daughters soon to be 15 & 11. I was born in the Bay Area Cali but moved to Phoenix a year after the Army and for the last 14 to 15 years I have enjoyed being in the mortgage industry and now work for one of the large firms.
For fun I like to do all the regular stuff, like taking weekend trips, sporting events, local live music shows and comedy clubs. I LOVE, LOVE , LOVE to snowboard and I can't wait for the slopes to open again. For almost as long as I’ve been I mortgages I have been singing/performing hard rock/metal in local acts around town; what can I say, I’ll be 16 for life! My personal interests are in my children, my music, fitness, traveling and my education. With just those things I achieve exceptional personal happiness and satisfaction. Most of my free time is spent at the gym, studying Kenpo, recording/writing music or at home enjoying my friends and family. Through my travels I believe that I have developed a truly even minded worldly view about life and although I do not subscribe to any religion, I possess a unique deep spiritual awareness. Yes, I can honestly say that I have touched the "face of God" but yet don't believe in that concept in the theistic sense. So if you're looking for a man to go to church with I'm definitely NOT your guy but if you're looking for stimulating intellectual conversations about the subject then hit me up because I love the subject!
I love being a light hearted soul so I tend not to take things to serious or personal. I have never been the "full on" materialistic type. Don't care about luxury cars or all inclusive stays. I would rather spend my money and take my mind to the experience of true life and live it to its fullest potential. I like to camp, go to the lake and ride quads with the kids to name a few. The journey is my destination.
I am truly looking for a woman that I am obviously attracted to but most importantly a woman that comes with an "experienced" but still open heart and is done with the clubbing lifestyle. I'm not looking for that perfect woman but just the one who can make me fall in love again. I've been dating for about 7-8 years now with the exception of a 2 year relationship. During this me time I've truly taken the time to rediscover who I am, what I want and what I will accept in my life.
To all who read this, hopefully you get I'm just trying to be real so if you can appreciate that hit me up but if not good luck in your search to make all your dreams of finding that special connection come true. :)

Meet people from Arizona, United States. Where to start. I am a 37 year old ex workaholic who sacrificed my 20's and most of my 30's to get to the top of my profession, and when I got there I realized what those long hours actually wound up costing me. I now put my efforts into my family, friends, and possibly you! . A little about me personally...I am the epitome of the "kid at heart". Age is just a number to me. I'm in better shape than most 20 somethings and look very young for my age. I moved to AZ to race sportbikes but had a bad accident on the track and haven't raced or ridden since. Probably will ride again, kinda miss the biker culture. I was a tournament pool player for three years and still play as often as I can. I am a gym rat, but not one of the muscle headed, self absorbed, douchey types. I love to hike, backpack and flyfish. I love to paintball and am an online gamer, but not the "World of Warcraft" type, those guys scare me. I enjoy going to local bars and playing pool and or darts. Not a big club guy. I am a stand up comdey freak, and love to see it live. My favorite comedians are Louis CK, Dave Attel and of course Dave Chapelle. I'M RICK JAMES !!! I also love cheesy B horror flicks! Guilty pleasure I guess. I love good food and good wine, am an excellent cook and can make anything well, of course after burning it to a crisp on the first attempt.I once boiled two dozen eggs at midnight, went back to bed and forgot about them. I woke up to the fire alarms going off and my dog freaking out! Fun fact: getting burnt egg odor out of carpet, walls and clothes is almost impossible. I finally recarpeted the entire upstairs and painted the inside, and some times I think I can still smell it!! I am a high tech junkie, both an audio and videophile. I am fiercely loyal to my close friends. If you need to get bailed out of a Mexican jail at 3 am on Christmas day... I'm the one you call. I have a boxer named Sassy whom I adore and a have a large aquarium. Actually looking to start a salt water aquarium soon. I am an avid shooter and an ace shot. I am a neat freak, especially when it comes to floors...can't stand dirty feet or socks. I do sneak a cigarette on occasion but not a daily thing, just when I'm out with the guys and not a big drinker.
I'm hoping to attract a fun loving gal who takes care of herself. One who is ok by herself but prefers to be together often. One with a kind heart and shares my love of animals and the outdoors. One who is open minded and likes to experience and learn new things like I do. One who doesn't get jealous because she knows there's no reason to be, as I'll only have eyes for her. And one who is quick with the comebacks when I get snarky. Thanks so much for taking the time to read this and I hope to hear from you soon... Scott

Date a soulmate from Arizona, United States. I am a single dad who has a day job as a professional for a local athletic team working with various staff on technical solutions. I'm mostly a relaxed, social type of guy when not at work. I LOVE sports and technology so the job fits nicely into my life. I used to be quite athletic, but now...not so much. I still love to kick the soccer ball around or swing the bat, except now I do with with a high energy 4-year-old! I do like to get outside from time-to-time. I love to go on day hikes (I don't camp). Arizona has some of the best areas for hiking I have ever been. I love to SCUBA dive when I get the chance, but not much of that in Arizona. I have three other loves my books, my theatre, and my cooking. I used to have a decent size library in my home, however, recent moves required me to pare that down via library donations. Poetry, plays, science, and technology; I have a varied mix of literary interests. In addition to my reading interests, theatre is has been big part of my life. I used to work with several companies here in the valley mostly doing technical stuff like lighting and sound (mostly as a designer). Before my son was born I would try to go to many of the shows playing each month. Sadly, time has curbed the number of which I can attend although I am determined for that to change. Oh, I'm also the best cook I know. I like to throw stuff together and watch how it comes out. In summery I guess you could say I'm an active intellectual.I have two ideals for an individual. First, my ideal match would intellectually challenge me in a variety of fields. I want to know that they are as comfortable learning about the world around them as they are sharing it with others. I want to be challenged by their questions, I want logical debate, I want to share in discoveries, and I want growth and development. On the other side I want sensitivity and tenderness. Oh...and they have to like a variety of foods. If they have never had an item, they must be willing to try it at least once.
Update – Why separated and not divorced? The question has come up as to why I use separated other then the technically that is my official legal status. When I built my profile I went back and forward in my head about it. Separated has so many different connotations. No two states have the same laws regarding legal separation and, indeed, some states do not have the option to legally separate at all. Among individuals often the main perception of separation is choosing to live apart with the chance of reconciliation. That certainly is not the circumstances here. In my case it is a full legal separation, which in Arizona is identical to divorce with one major difference; My ex wife may maintain the benefits she receives from my job. In her case she is able to maintain access to my health, dental, and vision insurance, plus she has a disability plan through my work. It is the right thing to do in order to ensure that the mother of my child maintains access to proper medical care if needed...even if it risks potential dating opportunity for me.
So...given that I chose that path in regards to my past relationship I have decided that I will disclose it on my profile and let the chips fall where they may for anyone who sees it. I do understand if that doesn't work for everyone. Life comes at us fast and ultimately this provides the widest safety net for my son's protection at the moment.

Meet someone special from Arizona, United States. I'm really insecure because of my undersized genitalia. However, I have testes the size of eggs. I enjoy chasing small animals with my car. I live for the funk. And I think I have a splendid natural essence.

Date men and women from Arizona, United States. I am very understanding and focused on doing good things. Life is precious and I treat it as such. Time is a commodity that we cannot get back. Id rather spend mine laughing and enjoying quiet times. I love to create. I am looking for someone to share and build with. Someone warm and knows how to love would be great. I spent alot of time learning what I want and need. I am emotionally generous. I am pretty honest and will share how I feel freely. I can be reserved but love to be silly at times. I love children and have 2 of my own. They have made me a better man.Music, and Drawing are a few of my favorite forms of expression. I love creating something from nothing or taking something else and making it better. Creation is a huge part of my life. Most things I am able to make on my own. But a good relationship, one thats great, one thats epic, I need someone elses help with. For that is one thing I am unable to produce on my own. What do I like in "She"? She's gotta have a sense of humor. Has to have an inner warmth that kind of radiates. She must love children and care about family. She must be strong but also fair. She must be willing to compromise. Above most, she must know how to love. She must also respect the power that I give her over me.

Date single man from Phoenix, United States. Hi, this is my first time trying out this online dating thing. I currently work full time and I am also taking some classes working towards getting my career started as a P.A.
I like all kinds of music, except I find it difficult to listen to country music for too long. I enjoy hanging out and socializing with friends playing cards or watching a game the most. I still like using up my vacation times doing more extravagent things such as taking a cruise, traveling to Europe etc. Also, simple stuff like going swimming and cooking a nice steak dinner then putting a movie on.
I am looking for someone with a good sense of humor, that knows how to balance her professional life with being able to smile, relax and laugh and have a good time. So someone who is not too serious please.
I guess you can call my hobbies going for a hike, camping, working out, and just exploring new places to see or go eat is always fun.

Meet people from Phoenix, United States. I'm looking for a nice,sweet, athletic, intelligent girl who has good values, a good sense of humor, likes being outdoors and is interested in a serious relationship. Being a sports fan would be nice also but its not a must.

Date a soulmate from Phoenix, United States. I'm athletic, active, have a good sense of humor... and am prettey intellijente... I speaka good inglesh.. ;-P. And I tend to like the same.
I believe opposites attract AND two birds of a feather flock together. Just depends what aspect of the relationship we are talking about. I've always thought if there are two people in a relationship that are exactly the same, ONE of them isn't needed! In other words, if you are painfully logical, analytical, and a sequential thinker... no need to apply. I got that covered. But if you are creative, artistic, and a "web" thinker... please DO apply. We should be an incredibly complementary couple. ;)
Incidentally, I suppose a fictional character I can think of that most closely resembles the kind of woman I tend to date (and find extraordinarily fascinating) would be Kate Winslet's character from Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. I have a lot of Jim Carrey's character in me, too--with some exceptions. But overall, that movie and their relationship was actually quite nostalgic for me.
My best physical attribute is being tall!! Haha. It's a huge advantage, I've always been taller than most of my peers (except for a short period right around 12 years old when everyone else shot up, and I kinda stayed the same... then I grew about 3 inches one summer and like 7 inches in 15 months, and the world was right again ;) So I've probably taken it for granted most of my life. But I'm reminded every so often how fortunate it is to be a tall, physically fit male in modern society. Cause it gives me options. It doesn't immediately eliminate me from consideration from tall gals, who like the fact they can wear heels without trepidation ;) And just about every statistic out there shows a strong correlation between male height and professional success. We are at our core, after all, driven by our instincts and can't help ourselves place value on attributes that are often wholly outside our control. It used to bother me (from an intellectual perspective), but now I just embrace it :) No sense suffering over something I don't control.

Meet someone special from Phoenix, United States. I'm sure that this is the most dificult and tedious part of this whole thing, soo.....I guess i'l just answer some of the inspiration questions.
My closest friends would tell you that I am generous honest and loyal and I expect the same in return. Not to say that I am tit for tat but relationships can't be one sided.
I am grateful for my family and friends and for the work opportunities that I have had.
I am looking to attract a person who is gratuful for the same things that I am. Someone with whom I can have conversations with and not discussion after discussion. An individual that can feel comfortable in situations with new friends and other similar situations. someone who is looking for a friend as well as a partner, both romantically and in other general senses.
My social life, I would say, is busy but not at all hectic. I tend to spend time with the same small core group of friends regularly and am interested in the person that I find to be able to incorporate themselves within that group and vice versa.
It's funny that I'm wirting these things down and It's reading to me like I want the same things as I would imagine everybody has/wants. At least the person that I'm looking for.
CHEERS!
