Date men and women from United States / Arizona / Tempe, 51 year old

Date people from United States. Question - if you were to be recognized by posterity for one thing, what would you like to be known for?
I believe we should never let go of our inner child. I like sports, dinner out with friends, just hanging/laughing with good friends, and an occasional weekend trip. Although I grew up in the Midwest, Phoenix has been my home for the past 15 years. I go to the gym to work out and clear my mind. I like to travel, I am always game for a spontaneous weekend or a day trip - and the passport is current ...
I am honest to a fault
Looking for my equal
I have doubt & question the meaning of the 'The Fifth Agreement'
Fluent in sarcasm (my second language), open to learn more
Not perfect, I do make mistakes
What ever happened to passing notes in class ...
Take responsibility for my actions
Have fallen/jumped from an airplane - on purpose
Have fallen through the ceiling of the bedroom - not on purpose LOL
Don't understand the comment 'live life to it's fullest' - how many of us 'live it to the least'
Good at sharing my toys in the sandbox
Do not have any superpowers
Have learned a couple of life's lessons the hard way
Time will move quicker by running faster on the treadmill - just a hypothesis though
Believe we all need a friend to act goofy with
My motto is 'Life is good,' and I believe we need to remind ourselves of that. And who knows - you might just find my honesty, good sense of humor, strength, compassion and positive attitude are exactly what you need right now. I can tell a good story and carry on a great conversation where we can banter back and forth, and still laugh at myself.
One of my favorite quotes - Do not go where the path may lead; go instead where there is no path and leave a trail ~ Ralph

Meet someone special from United States. Please...no winks, they're just canned responses (a two year old can send a wink!)
I read all emails, I delete winks....
A lady can say hello first ... and still be a lady, besides I'd rather hear your own words!
I'm originally a Dallas, Tx native, relocated to AZ in 2011, God loving, single, professional, with high ambitions. My career as an IT Consultant has spanned twenty eight years and I've had a wonderful, challenging, and blessed career. My desires in life are to be successful but always thankful, to God, to have a personal relationship with Christ, and to have someone to share those successes and precious moments in life with. I think ALL women are beautiful, and, Chivalry is so NOT dead ladies! I believe strongly in opening doors before her, and always treating her as the prize that she is.
I love to spoil and pamper, whatever that may entail (Smile!). If I see that something is wrong, I'll step up and make it right. Penetrating her mind throughout the day, her soul and body throughout the night. I love to travel. I've traveled to France, Germany, England, Mexico, Turkey, Canada, and parts of Asia. It would be nice to be accompanied by that special someone (passport required). My desire is to find the one that compliments me, and I her, completely. There are many that we can live with, however, I'm searching for the ONE that I cannot live, without!
My Ideal match? Hmmm...we may never really know...until we meet them, but...
Shakespeare said "To thine own self, be true!" Attraction is as precarious as it is an individual thing. I'm attracted to GOD LOVING (I prefer to say God loving over God fearing, although Proverbs 9:10 says that fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom), INTELLIGENT, caring, affectionate, compassionate, educated, diverse, versatile, well spoken, attractive, shapely women, with the physical attributes that God has so richly endowed them with ... from beautiful lips, to sexy hips, and that oh so wonderful 'Backside'. I love a confident mind, a woman that knows who she is, and isn't afraid to be herself.
ALL women are beautiful, black, white, latin, asian, mixed, etc., and I respect the TOTAL woman, chemistry and compatibility are critical, if there is to be a chance at success in any relationship. My ideal match is many things, some I may think of, many I may not. What we both bring to the table has to compliment each other, not just one side. I love and respect MY woman...like Barack loves Michelle, like Christ...loves the church! Period.
As a gentleman of character I can definitely appreciate the awesome and unique features of my African American Queens, although to me ALL women are beautiful! I'm attracted to every shape and size, but not just any size. Let's be real, just as women prefer tall men, as opposed to someone 5'4", men have preferences also, and the aforementioned are mine.
Please, no photo, no response. I WILL NOT ... send an email just to see a picture of you. Women are just as visual as men, PART of the reason anyone writes is because they ARE ... able to view a picture of that person.
This isn't a BLIND DATING site. Pet Peeve: Those without photos...should ONLY... be able to view other profiles without photos! My interest is NOT piqued if someone without a photo winks or favorites me. Sorry! It's only fair.
So, if you're a real woman ... of discriminating taste and substance ... contact me!!!
I await...
A Gentleman Always,
Darryl

Date a soulmate from United States. I am looking for someone that matches up to my mission statements of life, someone who I am attracted too, clean nice looking who enjoys things I enjoy and is honest, loyal loving, caring passionate about each other and family as well as family values.

Meet men and women from United States. I am a very friendly, likeable and warm person. Additionally, I am an honest person too. My friends who know me would say I have an outstanding personality. I like to meet new people and love to talk. An example of this is when I was a park ranger a while back I assisted with presenting water safety programs to children. Between my seasonal jobs and permanent jobs I moved around a bit to get experience and better myself because in my work of Natural Resources its important to get experience to compete for other opportunities/promotions in a very competitive field. I improve myself as much as possible after all learning is a lifelong process. Now in Arizona I like it and have purchased a house. I enjoy movies, working out a little each week, going to sports events,museums, live music at clubs and concerts as well as exploring the city and outside the city to see things. Relaxing at home is nice too. On a larger scale I enjoy traveling, hiking, camping , fishing and hunting also. I like to cook some but need some more practice and cookbooks to be better. I have played golf a little but want and need to take some lessons from someone.
My family and relatives are out of state and I see them when I can. I am looking for a nice lady who likes to talk, laugh, be a confidant and is easy going like myself. Communication is essential which includes being a good listener too. I really want to find a relationship and give 100 percent but I really would be friends first too. A nice lady who has my company will find that I will be nice and fun to be with. I like being affectionate to a lady. I am caring, understanding and enjoy humor every day. I have a fair amount of free time and am flexible to meet the schedule of a busy lady. Most of the time I will try new things and can be spontaneous. Good conversation, smiles and fun come from being with me ! Hope to hear from you ladies! Thanks much for reading my info and best luck to all in your searches!

Date a soulmate from Tempe, United States. What I said before! And I'm a Chicago born and raised man. Now living outside Phoenix AZ. Not very happy here besides my family. Because of past injuries and living a hard life, I'm honestly not bound to make a lot of money in my life. But I'll be, and I am, one very happy S.O.B. And I'm looking for the same in a woman!

Meet men and women from Tempe, United States. RESPECTFULLY, NO PHOTOS, NO REPLY! Regarding my headline, if we share that same "Parallel thinking", then please explore further. I'm a thoughtful man, that has always believed that as I roll through life, "Roll Positively!" I'm very open minded and my mindset is that of the parachute, "It works best when open". I've interracially dated my entire life and I enjoy people as individuals based upon their character and the positive attitude that they convey. The color of someone's skin is simply a rainbow within my thoughts. Each day is a new experience for me sharing, learning, listening and understanding those that are within my life. Life has taught me positive empowerment, accountability and to "Understand more, Judge less". Most of all, laugh in life because the road of drama is long and the road of life is short. I like to explore it all and make it an adventure! What are your thoughts, goals and dreams? If my thoughts of exploration intrigue you, climb aboard! You've knocked upon the door of a TALL MAN with a smile as wide as the Grand Canyon! Accompanied by a lean and muscular build, I enjoy running, cycling and overall exercise that keeps me fit and feeling great. Staying active playing sports is a part of the mix and I enjoy watching sports as well (especially football).
I used to be a Great Chef in England that cooked for the Queen (Just Kidding! But I can cook and can prepare a great meal for you, share some stimulating conversation and you can be the Queen : ) Like other mortals (though I'm a realist), I enjoy escaping to a wonderful restaurant where the atmosphere is stellar (because you are there) and the food is out of this world. Topped off by an evening under the stars, the theater or snuggling while watching a movie at home, it's all good. I enjoy the finer things in life, but the simple pleasures are the best treasures and those to me are my mate, family/friends. I have many interests and a great career to support them.
I'm a Father and my son now 18 yrs old and resides with his mother out of state, so my life is my own. Kids are great and if you have them I respect that they are your most valued treasures and are a part of your life. I'm a BIG petlover, but my pets unfortunately have passed away after being with me for many years and I miss them a great deal. Travel to any HOT SPOT to explore a new city or culture is always on the map. Sharing the view with someone special, that knows what they want, PRICELESS! I'm here for the long term relationship. Distance isn't an issue when it comes to engaging that "Special Someone". Thanks for your time and I hope that something I've shared has intrigued you enough to say "hello!".
There is no perfect individual or match for me. Character and quality of the heart mean a great deal to me. Whatever she brings to the table, she brings her human spirit first. My hopes are that she has great self esteem, is independent, caring, loving and understanding and wants a 'Soulmate'. She is content with herself and what she does in life no matter what that is or what "title" she holds. Important to say the least, but not as important as the way she lives her life and treats others. If she has children, great, if not, she respects the value of family. Her physical attraction and character are from within and you make me SMILE! You are dynamic and that elusive aspect of chemistry resides within you. I'm very proud that you are with me and no matter where we are, we are together based upon our solid connection. There are pre-requisites other than being "Who you are" and not aspiring to be someone or something you are not. We can't always be positive because life is at hand, but we accept all challenges together and keep smiling together. Communication and compromise are important to you and we share those values that will lead to a fabulous LONG TERM relationship.
