Date people from California, United States. I see few boundaries but do follow the rules of the road, can distinguish the difference between propitious manners and casuistry....some leeway, I thrive on new experiences and thoroughly enjoy the company of an emotionally intelligent person always displaying an inviting smile, willingness to help others and a sparkle in the eye! I seek that I may find a positive & collaborative partner to enjoy our life journey together.
Funny....for about fifty years, I've been busy all along...I missed the part where you walked directly past me, your eyes meeting mine...I was looking past you. I've finally opened my eyes and wide....not only to nourish but to finally savor every moment onward.....
I'm looking all through match for my fit, funny, silly, attractive, intelligent, adventurous and positive woman with a golden heart willing to spend our time together sharing ourselves to the other in all activities whether chores or outings. It would be great to find an fit scuba partner enjoying travels and sharing some amazing dives in culturally diverse countries. Not held to my locale as I travel abroad and remotely for work these days. So, whaddya say?
No rush for me really, I enjoy stopping at the side of the road, seeing, touching, smelling, possibly tasting the fruit or vegetables and ask questions before I buy anything....and if a local farmer points me in the direction down the long dusty dirt road of the countryside....I'll travel that entire road if at the end, I learn, experience, emote despite the possibility of nothing found it will be the most wonderous of journeys.....an analogy of sorts I suppose...but that's what makes us exceptional together....let's just replace 'I' with 'we'.

Meet single man from California, United States. I am a chronic underdog. I like to upset the status quo and beat the favorite. (Lord knows what would happened if I *became* the favorite!) I am unpretentious and, according to one ex, the least self-conscious man she has met. I have also been described as having a very big heart. Repeatedly.
Some people sink into a routine (rut) as their life proceeds. I seem to be the opposite. Everything in my life can fit in the back of my car. I have become more curious in the last decade. I devour history and science books. My travel bug has strengthened significantly. I composed the travel wish list (elsewhere on my profile) about six months ago.
I am loyal, committed and reliable. I choose my words carefully and try to mean them exactly. I am an extremely diligent father. I'm generally not that much for parties. I have retired from drinking alcoholic beverages and I have a vocal cord problem that keeps my voice decibel level down. I am happiest in a group from one to eight people.
I love to tell stories. I think my interest in the world actually makes *me* more interesting. I am gifted with great health and feel good most of the time. It shows.
You are trim and active, maybe athletic. You live in today, not the future or the past. You can write, and sometimes do. You understand humility and are not afraid to admit being wrong. I will try to do the same.
I have gravitated toward long-term monogamous relationships but I don't measure anyone out for a lifetime of unified bliss . . . at least, not on the first date. I do seek two core things:
~ A partner-in-crime; adventures, romance and relaxation
~ Someone who will have my back. I will have hers.
I am enormously loyal to my core family and will pass through a hail of bullets for my loved ones. That could ultimately include you and yours. Let's leave the hail of bullets metaphor in the distant future and concentrate on history, science, travel, romance, strenuous activity outdoors with the occasional slightly scary adventure.

Date someone special from United States. Let's face it, there are so many beautiful women on Match and many have profiles and pics that are enticing to say the least. For a long time I was guarded, protecting myself from being hurt and raising my two daughters by myself. I'm looking for a woman who is not interested in games, straight forward, romantic, open and honest with an understanding of what a partnership, especially a long term one can be. I would like the opportunity to impress you with me and my passions, not what I can do for you.
I like gong to the ocean and watching the waves roll in, going to jazz concerts, just sitting enjoying company in my house. Playing backgammon, chess, dominoes are my favorite games. I am a movie watcher and keeping up to date on current events and news. I like all kinds of foods and don't mind cooking and grilling and enjoy them while watching football and the Lakers. A sunset, a night lit by the full moon is great fun to enjoy at the beach. Although I don’t want any more childrenI have no issues or reservations for a woman with children.
Meet single man from United States. I'm extremely easy going, mellow, on the quiet side, and comfortable to be around. My sister, who is sitting next to me, tells me I am a very sweet, kind honest person (biased?). I tend to be somewhat reserved or shy, and the true me doesn't come out right away. I've never known boredom. If anything I find there is not enough time in the day to do all I want. I'm looking for someone who is genuine, unargumentative, generous in spirit, someone who likes the simple things in life and gets joy out of everyday life.
I enjoy gardening, fixing things, noodling with computers, music, and especially traveling whenever possible. I do enjoy mellow hiking and biking, but am not obsessed. Not so much into the bar scene or partying all night.
I was born in Brooklyn, and moved out to the Bay Area in 1982. My New Yawk accent is long gone. I am self employed so I have the luxury of working when I want.
I'm not into the games, or high maintenance types. Also, I'm looking for the real deal. if you're here because you've had a recent breakup, or there is any possibility you might get back together with a former partner, click NEXT.
Hmm....will add more in a bit.

And now that I have stoked the fires of your neurosis...:)
Although I have been deeply fortunate to have found success in my professional life, I haven't fared as well in my personal life. Perhaps I have been too busy up to now focusing on trying to 'make it big,' but I realize that achieving success all alone just makes you lonelier. I don't want to continue on this fun journey by myself. I am looking for the right spark, and I don't know if that can be found over the Internet, but heck, I'm a risk taker. I hope you are nice, pretty, athletic, witty, with a sense of humor, killer smile, and love to travel. Life is too short...:) Let's grab a drink and talk and have fun....I love to laugh, and I know I can make you smile....are you ready?
And I just noticed that I am wearing a tie in nearly every one of my silly photos...man, I have got to get a real life....
