Date men and women from United States / California, 57 year old - page 4

Date single man from California, United States. I'm a fit, energetic guy who is very directed and sets goals and works extremely hard to achieve them. I take time out every now and then to step back from day-to-day events and take a long look at things and make sure I'm headed in the right direction. I'm very dependable, trustworthy, and dare I say it? Pretty normal. I have midwestern values and a high degree of integrity.
I am very adventurous and curious and am always looking for something new to experience. I love to travel and have access to significant travel benefits obtained through my career as a pilot of a major american airline. I've taken some pretty radical backpacking trips to places like Patagonia and New Zealand and have much more territory to cover.
I have established a small business that is a wide-spectrum enterprise that brings the technium, creativity, and craft to bear on a wide variety of projects that range from woodworking as an emphasis to music, art, and creative writing, among other projects.
I am here to find my life partner. I am a patient man and wish to establish friendship first and then see how things proceed from there. The ultimate goal is to share experiences with someone with whom I have established a deep, resonant relationship with- the love of my life. Although I certainly have enjoyed my experiences with those that I have met here, I would much rather devote my energy to developing a serious relationship with just one woman.
My ideal mate would be one who shares my core values and is intelligent, dynamic, serious about maintaining her health, and has solid life skills. Fun-loving is a quality that is also high on the list with the ability to find enjoyment in those quirky events life provides us. I intend on roaming far and wide on planet earth and seek someone who would enjoy having a great seafood dinner in Punta Arenas, hiking in the Alps, or doing shots of vodka in Vladivostock after a trip on the Trans-Siberian Railway.

Meet a man from California, United States. I was married 20 years/been divorced 6. I've had a couple of long-term relationships since then. I know what I want.
I want romance and intense passion in my life and I want to be in love again.
Despite the crummy photos of myself, I'm actually a tall, very fit, honest, loyal, $uccessful, confident, easy-going, unpretentious and very intelligent, renaissance-type man with strong character and a wide range of interests. I have a great sense of humor and LOTS of youthful energy (and Fyi, I don't need viagra, just so ya know).
Furthermore, I'm wicked-smart, attentive, nice, generous, thoughtful, observant, grateful, inquisitive, spontanious and fun.
But perhaps best of all, I'm authentic and genuine and very sincere.
I LOVE to have fun and I LOVE intelligent substantive conversation. That is a big aphrodisiac for me. I love kids, I love animals and I crave being outdoors. I LOVE to hiketoo. (Not into camping at all, though, sorry). I love to travel very much too (c'mon, doesn't everyone?) and I delight in learning about other cultures and civilizations past. I have a deep appreciation for history and archeology. I love most all sports too. I play golf and I love to ski.
I enjoy reading, coffee, bookstores, live music,road trips,breakfast,ethnic foods.all foods!
I REALLY love to escape from the crowded, ugly, concrete madness of southern California as often as I can.
I love mountains, deserts, oceans, rivers...exploring adventure!
I have a creative and artistic side to me as well a little bit of a bohemian nature. I design and write and I've been fortunate to have had many things published/produced. I also love photography very much, but I'm not very good at it.
Just so you know, I don't watch/follow/enjoy NASCAR or hockey, nor am I a "biker"(or of that mentality either). I have never worn/ would never wear a Hawaiian shirt, nor do I wear a baseball-cap backwards (what is that, anyway?) I don't wear tank tops or flip-flops or sandals. I'm about as far from being a surfer-dude as a grown man could possibly be. (And there are few things worse than a 50-something surfer-dude). I absolutley do love to goof-around though, but I'm mature. I don't get drunk or get high I'm not interested in anyone who does. Wave-runners, ATV's, dirt-bikes the like, similarly don't interest me.
I don't need motorized/computerized/electrical things to enhance my outdoor or indoor fun.
Ummm, certain small battery-operated devices for personal use indoors are an exception to this rule of "enhanced fun".
It makes no difference to me what kind of car you drive nor am I awed or impressed by how many trips you've made to "Europe", "Aspen" or "Cabo".
And Duh, everyone "likes" (or "loves") music. That's a given? Yet EVERY woman says this ("I love music") on her profile.
And no, I don't like to dance. (honestly, c'mon, grown men really don't like to) and saying you "love to dance" (as nearly EVERY woman on EVERY dating site also says) does not endear you to ANY man reading that, or make you seem more attractive, sexy, wild, or fun. Actually the opposite is true. Because when we men read that on your profile, we think, "darn, at some point I'm gonna have to get up w/her somewhere and dance with her and get all sweaty and look really stupid"?
Slow dancing (for sure) and possibly line-dancing or swing-dancing is an exception to this.
I'm here looking for a full-time girlfriend...ideally a wife or lifetime-partner...someone who's gracious and like-minded, who is bright and quick-witted, with a good sense of humor. I want a woman who's needs to be very sexy (and very, very naughty) sometimes too.
So, if you too are sincerely looking for an enduring, long-term, monogamous relationship, then we have something very important in common...
...and it won't hurt if you know how to kiss me like the world is about to end.

Date men and women from California, United States. About me - Open, honest and considerate of others. I've never met a dog I didn't like. A dog is an admirable creature - keen of breed and steadfast to purpose. I fancy myself with similar qualities (short of shoving my nose in your crotch when greeting). I hold my faith and belief closely. I'll share them with others who are willing to share theirs with me. I don't believe there is any faith, belief or religion more right then another. There are only differences in understanding what we all have in common. And hope for in living. Great things come from simple gestures. Things acquired, fame, success, fortune, are eventually lost. Things given, compassion, understanding, encouragement, remain forever. It's not what we achieve or accomplish that matters most even though each of us might contribute and enrich the world with talent, happiness or delight. It seems to me how we touch and change the lives of others ensures our greatness. Though I think I know a lot of things, I know I don't know enough yet to consider my learning and living complete. I hold the love of my daughter so my greatest achievement may have been met... but then again, she needs new tires on her car. I certainly ain't done having snacks and naps.
About you - Be who you are. It takes a lot of courage to just be who you are. I'll admire that quality in you greater then all others you may possess. Relish your contradictions and perceptions and share them with me. Stand your ground and I will yield to it. Fight with your mind and love with your heart. Risk getting messy. Clean up can be fun too. Draw outside the lines and I'll make certain you'll always have paper and a box of 64 crayons. Risk being foolish. Rally to be sincere. Know what you want and be happy with what you get. And DON'T ask me what I'm getting you for Christmas because I'll lie.
About Match - I'm not a paying member. So responding to me here won’t reach me. Why do I even have a profile? Well, because I'm hopeful that this economy will change and I can afford to pursue what experience has taught me is possible on here. Until then I hope you take my clicking you as a FAVORITE as a simple compliment. Something that you wrote has caught my attention. How curious are you to find out? How clever am I to provide you a way to ask? I can dig the riddle of these two notions. So it is a riddle I offer here. IKNDIGT and I hope you can get it. You can if you add the at and bow to those good folks over at cox on the other side of this net. I hope to hear from you. With some dialogue, who knows what comes next? I certainly don't. But I'm curious. Are you?

Meet a man from United States. I am not comfortable talking about myself but no choice in this format, so here goes: I like to think of myself as a gentleman and feel that I am. My friends tell me I look young for my age (that is why they are my friends). All my photos are dated and none have been modified so what you see is what you get. I enjoy doing things for people I care about- it makes me feel good. I have an excellent relationship with by boys mother =we work well together for our boys best interest, trade responsibilities to help each other and make our own life more flexible....
These days, I have my ranch/ work set up so others are responsible for the day-to-day operations (I have done my share in the past)-this allows me flexibility in my life to travel, help others/ family....
I have worked hard to get where I am in life so I can enjoy the years ahead- Before rice farming, for 15 years I worked for a large corporation as an Industrial Engineer and Production Superintendent in Santa Clara Ca.and finally as a Sales Manager in Seattle. Exercise and a healthy living style in general has been a way of life for me - I workout almost every day and would want my partner to feel the same. Setting a good example for my boys has been a priority the last bunch of years- it has paid off. My youngest son will be going off to college in 3 yrs, so a lot could change- especially my mobility (currently I need to be in the Chico,Ca. area about 1/2 the time). The Lady I am looking for would enjoy traveling, going to dinner with friends or simply have fun doing a project together. I am comfortable that I can be happy doing almost anything- as long as my Lady/ Partner is happy.
I understand that building a good relationship takes an investment of time, energy, money....I am an investor by nature so I am more than willing to do what it takes to build a great relationship. If we decide we want to try to build a relationship, you will not be disappointed by my efforts.

Meet someone special from United States. I'm a slender, fit American-born Asian and yet for some reason I keep getting matched up with Caucasian women who are not small and older than me. I mean, there is nothing wrong with that but it is just plain weird. It's like my opinion doesn't even count! What is up with that?
Anyways, I don't believe in a perfect match. I believe in a good match but frankly, nobody is perfect. How boring would life be without imperfections? But here are a few things I would like to find:
1 - Like everyone here, I'd like to meet someone amusing. At least someone who is as amusing as I think I am. Outgoing and social are good things too.
2 - Somebody who is capable of telling me what they think without inhibition. No passive aggressives, no bottled-up powder kegs
3 - Expressions of affection come easy to me and I hope from you as well
4 - A bit of kindness, caring for the human condition, a sense of social justice
It's a short list but I don't think unreasonable. I like to actually meet people face to face because that's the only way to gauge a personality. Also, like most of you, I like to know who I am communicating with so please, please do not contact me if you have no photo. I don't like those kind of surprises and there is a great potential for awkwardness if you communicate before getting a picture.
