Date someone special from Scottsdale, United States. A little about me...
I am a Retired career Air Force Colonel. I was a fighter pilot most of my career, and retired after running a Division in Operations at the Pentagon. After leaving the service, I flew private jets, and worked in the golf industry with a start up company. I grew up in Iowa City, Iowa, and have strong midwestern values, based on honesty and integrity. I graduated from the US Air Force Academy, and also have two Masters Degrees. I am blessed with exceptionally good health, which allows me to live life to the fullest. Along with golf, I enjoy snow skiing, hiking, yoga, (Yes, a guy who does yoga!), concerts, especially outdoors, and reading a good book. I am excellent at Sudoku Puzzles! My friends have described me as the "most honest man I have ever known," and also as a "great listener." I play golf for fun now. I enjoy the companionship and the beauty of the course, much more than worrying about the score, or a bad shot. I could care less if you are a 2 handicap, or a 36, as long as we are having fun. I have 4 beautiful grown children who are all doing well on their own, and seven Grandkids. I am interested in a forever relationship.
What I am looking for in a Relationship:
A lady who loves to laugh and have fun, who loves to communicate and converse, and who still has a passion for life.....and love. I try to keep myself very fit, and I hope you will, too. I hope you enjoy music, being outdoors, and both nice dinners and breakfast out. Enjoy golf, but don't take it too seriously. I sincerely hope you will be both romantic and passionate.
I'd just like to add...
I am truly an "Officer and a Gentleman!" Because I always have, I will open the door for you, pull out your chair at the dinner table, and treat you with the respect that a lady deserves. I will love just being with you. We will become best friends, and enjoy doing things together, whether it is just for breakfast at the Good Egg, dinner at Mastro's, or a burger at Greasewood Flats. I will make you feel Very special.....
Meet single man from Scottsdale, United States. I'm a tall guy who is 6' 4", about 240 pounds and in my mid 60's. I have grey hair, am in good health, have 6 kids (all grown) and I am a writer/publisher who does posters, card decks, books, brochures, etc. I am an avid reader and am a quiet person. I enjoy cultural activities--art, literature, music, museums, and libraries and have recently gotten interested in spirituality. I am not very religious but would like to learn and study more about religions in general. I lived many years in California and recently moved to the Phoenix area. I've been married twice and am looking for companionship and friendship and some romance would be nice. I like kids although I don't want to have any more. I came from a large family and I like large families. I went to the University of Chicago for both my undergraduate and graduate degrees. I consider myself a smart person and take pride in being well read. I am a liberal democrat and have been active in democratic clubs and state politics although not in an elective capacity. I like computers and technology. I am excited about being in Phoenix and am looking forward to meeting someone who shares some of my interests. I have been married twice before--once for 7 years and the other one for 25 years. Since I work for myself out of my home, I have lots of free time. I particularly like creative people and some of my publishing is to support and help artists. I like nice people and think of myself as a good person. Personal integrity and high values are important to me. I also like a woman with some spunk and who knows her own mind and what she likes and doesn't like. I believe that the foundation of a good relationship is to be best friends and to respect and share each others interests. Honesty is very critical. Optimism is important.
I recently bought a house in North Phoenix and am delighted to be back in a home after living in an apartment for 6 years. Gardening is my main hobby and I recently grew 40 kinds of flowers from seeds which was an interesting project. I'm looking for another hobby such as ceramics, pottery, woodworking, etc--something to do with my hands as my work in publishing is primarily desk oriented. I started painting last year and although I'm not very good, I enjoy it. I like movies a lot and also like music including pop, rock, classical, and some country. I grew up in Montana in a large family and like western themed things. I haven't done a lot of travelling but would like to take a couple of cruises every year. I have spent little time in Europe and would like to go back.
I just recently published a new book called, Meditations on Virtues and Vices and have another one coming out soon called Proverbs from Around the World. I don't consider myself retired because I enjoy what I am doing and work at writing and publishing on a regular basis. I have worked for myself for over 25 years and so I can pretty much do whatever I want and take the time to do it.
I would like to settle down in a committed relationship but haven't been dating for the last 18 months.Now that I am in my new house and have it fixed up and comfortable, I want to develop a new social life.

I like artistic and creative,.. responsible not alienated,.. Gentle and sweet, decisive,.. with heat. Have nerve, verve, smart...and heart.

Meet a soulmate from Arizona, United States. I love to play tennis, play cards, go to the movies, cook, read, all sorts of activities. I have been playing tennis every Saturday and Sunday mornings. Each Sunday I attend church after tennis and figure the Lord forgives for that. I tend not to go to bars or clubs all that much. I prefer to spend my time with friends and family. I was living out in California for the most recent few years and just recently relocated back to Arizona.
In addition to the things already mentioned, I enjoy playing golf and traveling or just relaxing around home. And I would like to do these things and much more with a special person.
It would be nice to meet some new people and I will be trying this site to accomplish this. Even though a person can go for years thinking life is okay alone, it is better with the right person to share all of the highs and not so highs that life gives to each of us.
The cornerstone of my life and what I hope is the most defining feature is my belief in God and my faith from God. I have not always acted like a christian in my decades here on earth, but in the last few years I have rediscovered my walk with the Lord which I intend to continue for the rest of my life. This is something I want to also share with that special woman.
Date someone special from Arizona, United States. I GUESS I HAVE TO PAY UP! SOMEONE VERY ATTRACTIVE TO ME IN MANY WAYS EMAILED AND WINKED AT ME.
DISCLAIMER: I'm really only 5' 9' but so many of the nicest ladies seem to like 5"10" or taller that I decided to fib. I’ll fill you in on all of the details about my life and love life later but if you can understand the following little story you will know what my real life’s relationship goal is, and always has been:
Many years ago I was in Kansas and my future best friend, invited me to go to dinner with a couple he had known earlier in his army career. When we arrived at their home I saw that they had four children ranging in ages from about age twelve to infant. The wife (whose name escapes me, I’m sorry to say) was a Phillippina and a very lovely woman. My point in this description is to set up the situation. The thing that most impressed me that evening was that no time throughout the rest of the night did that woman lose physical connection with her husband, literally. It wasn’t obnoxious or annoying or even noticeable if a person wasn’t paying attention. What became obvious to me was that she really loved him and it made her happy and comfortable to be clingy like that even after all of those kids and years together. I have never had that feeling with a woman even until today. It must be wonderful to have a person so enthralled by you that the touch of your flesh gives her comfort. That’s what I’m looking for. I remember watching them that night and while he was mostly oblivious to her connection he would probably have sensed it if it wasn’t there. Well, that’s what I’m searching for. I’m a hard guy, I’ve had a challenging and difficult life but now that I’ve finally dropped my own personal mantle of leadership and sacrifice I am looking for that relationship. That doesn’t mean some, robotic response, what it means is finding a woman who respects my history and wants to share my future. I deeply need tenderness and love. Do you feel like giving it a shot? I’m trying hard not to ever be a jerk ever again and I really pay attention to any woman willing to spend the time it takes to tell me where her personal “mine fields” are. I never want anyone who gives me their time to feel as if they are being abused or condescended upon. I have been a classic, natural warrior, opinionated, assertive and forceful. But now, in the peaceful time of my life, I’m looking for a loving and caring companion. Someone who still finds the fire in my eyes and belly exciting, but is patient enough to wait for it to subside so she can get her loving and sensitive man back again. I don’t have very much baggage, nothing intolerable. I have been in Phoenix since Spring of 2006. I decided to retire here and hang out with my 89 year old father for the rest of his life. Sadly that turned out to be much too short a time as he passed at the end of October that year. I am still only starting to create real friends here. Without a job most of the people I meet are waiters, waitresses, bartenders and store clerks. I’m sure that will change eventually because I’m very gregarious and like people. In my life I have had hundreds of acquaintances and a very, very few friends. I like it that way.
One thing about me, I'm not very hard to find. The last three letters of my name are men. Simple huh?
This is a pretty generic message even though parts of it are quite personal. I’ll get much more personal if I connect with you. I guarantee that you will find my history to be a fairly interesting and exciting tale.
I will always be as truthful as possible. There's no reason in the world for deceiving someone and it forces you to have such a good memory.
I don't mind getting hurt a little bit but I don't have time left to get crushed once more. Please read that last line again. If you aren't willing to take a risk go on there are plenty of shallow guys out there.
Meet single man from Arizona, United States. I am a dark and handsome romantic guy who has a lot of respect for all women. I am very easy to meet and get to know. Somewhat quiet at first but quickly open up. I am not a player and I like committed relationships. Honesty and integrity are my two my stronger qualities. I am an easy going, fun loving and sensitive person willing to try a new adventure.
I love all kinds of sporting events and attend many throughout the year. I have season football tickets for ASU and Nebraska. My son is a strength coach with the Notre Dame football team.
I enjoy and support all kinds of charitable organizations including the Salvation Army, United Way, UNCF and the Arizona Science Center. I currently serve on the Phoenix Salvation Army Board.
Love to share walks and talks with someone special. Somewhat quiet and reserved at first but after a while I warm up and become exciting and fun to be around.
Looking for that certain woman who is special and looking for a lot of fun and good times. This beautiful lady is very confident and independent. She takes care of herself physical,ly emotionally and spiritually. She loves to go to movies, sporting events and concerts. Traveling to exotic places is something this couple will enjoy doing together. Looking for a partner who is honest and candid. Someone who is as beautiful on the inside as the outside.
Date a man from United States. I am a dynamic figure often seen scaling walls and crushing ice. I write award winning operas; I woo women with my sensuous and godlike trombone playing. When I'm bored I build large suspension bridges in my yard. Critics worldwide swoon over my original line of corduroy evening wear. My trick floral arrangements have earned me fame in international botany circles. Kids trust me. I once read Moby Dick and David Copperfield in one afternoon and still had time to refurbish an entire dining room set that evening. I know the exact location of every food item in Safeway. Many years ago I discovered the meaning of life...but I forgot to write it down.
I thought a little tongue-in-cheek humor was needed here as I think most everyone gets tired of reading the same tired comments over and over. Thunderstorms, sunsets, walks on the beach etc. are things most everyone seems to enjoy... but it almost seems a bit redundant to mention. Just relocted to Scottsdale (Nov. 2011)...love to meet someone here to explore some of the new places (at least new for me). Photos are current (August 2011).
Good relationships seem most likely to happen if the chemistry's there from the very beginning. I'd like to find a woman with just the right balance of easiness vs. intensity to make life interesting but not scary. Having a few common interests would keep our relationship interesting although I definitely believe that having ones own space is important too. Your friends would describe you as honest, nice, sincere, caring and that you have a great sense of humor.
Some of my interests include: an occasional car show or a cruise through the countryside, auto racing (Formula 1), NFL football games, flying, skiing, photography, and maybe a little golf (have clubs but rarely get past hitting a bucket of balls). I travelled a lot while working, so now that I'm retired I really enjoy the time I get to spend at home. Lots of time to socialize with my friends and neighbors, barbeque, drink a little good wine and maybe watch the latest good movie that's been released.
My favorite travel in the U.S. includes visiting San Diego, San Francisco, the Napa wine country, Carmel and the Monterey Bay Area.
If I WINK it means I thought your profile was interesting but I may not meet all of your Match requirements (might be a little difference in age, education, distance, or other preferences). If, after reading my profile, you think you might be interested...please WINK (or email) back, it will let me know that that it's okay to send you a note.
If my profile happens to ring a bell with you, please send a message... I'd love to hear from you. All the best to you in your search!
Regarding Photos: Sorry but at least one GOOD PHOTO is required to receive a response. No cigarette smokers please.
Meet a soulmate from United States. I've had a few relationships over the years, but none that has developed into a second chance at marriage. I'm still working on it though. I have 2 great children that are grown up and living their own lives. I try to be an integral part of theirs and hope they have the faith in me to ask for my advice when they want it. I have 2 grandchildren that I adore, but don't get to see them as much as I would like.
I'm looking for a naturally fun person with a great sense of humor and confidence in herself as a person. It's not important as to what she has, but who she is. I would enjoy playing tennis as a couple, walking the trails and experiencing new sights and sounds. Being together is important but I also understand that time apart at times is just as important. I don't like to smother someone. I don't look at myself as getting older - just getting further away from my birthdate. I am a person that wears my emotions on my sleeve and hope that the person I connect with is an open book, not afraid to show their emotions. I love photography. I seem to have a good sense of composition and imagination when it comes to seeing a great picture opportunity. I'm usually the one that is the "official photographer" at parties and functions, but rarely get a picture of myself. I do find plenty of time to be with my significant other though and want to make her feel special and important. Are you the one???
Date someone special from United States. I'm a easy going, nice guy, funny, nice looking, in good shape, successful, who knows how to have fun. I enjoy all types of music, all the fine arts, dancing, NPR, local to international news, enjoy good conversation, travel, fine dinning. I like to play tennis, run, hike. I 'm playfull, affectionate,passioante with a healthy libido.I'm very thankful and blessed. Life is good!
Meet single man from United States. I would describe myself as an intelligent, educated person who is forthright, communicative, sensitive, emotionally and otherwise available, monogamous, relationship oriented, playful yet introspective, and energetic. I value openness, intimacy, insightfulness, self-awareness, the capacity to talk through problems (as opposed to acting them out), compromise, reciprocity, loyalty, companionship, a social conscience, and a passionate involvement with life. My primary interest is in developing a lasting relationship. I'm a psychologist (very recently moved to Scottsdale from Tucson) and enjoy my work because it gives me an opportunity to do something worthwhile, but it is not on par with the special relationship in my life. I am generally health conscious and try to exercise, meditate, and do yoga on a regular basis. I also like good conversation, good food, a variety of music, reading, travel and more. The woman I would like to meet is an attractive, physically fit, person, who has similar values to mine.
