Date men and women from United States / California / Aliso Viejo, 45 year old

Date a man from United States. CEO for a Pharmacy Company since 1995. Also an educator in the field of Sociology. Ph.D Social/Fire Ecology. UCI. Truth, I am 6'1" 180 lbs. and have all my real hair and real teeth. :p (people ask) I am in the top 10 nicest persons in the world. :p I am very down to earth. I am not motivated by money as it is not something that factors in ones happiness or well being. I love to be outside, mostly because of my love of nature. Best workouts are done outdoors. A Social and Fire Ecologist, I am called for my expertise in fire weather patterns and understanding the mind of an arsonist. I am very much self supporting. I am VERY comfortable with myself, easy going and am NEVER at a lack for words. Fear an awkward silent moment with me? Don't. I am very inquisitive and always have lots of questions. I dont mind talking about myself, but I dont concentrate on it. If you are interested you will ask. Be prepared to talk about yourself. I have been single for well over 4 years. My two children are 18 and 21. 18 at a private school in Southern California and 21 year old is at UCI. Blessed with great family!! I am extremely kid friendly. If you are not into humor or being silly once in a while... I am NOT the guy. Laughter, truly is the best medicine. People describe me as one of those people who good things happen to. Its likely my outlook on life. I am looking for someone who can be a good friend and more if the chemistry is right. Drama is not a plus. However, I know it exists and am quickly finding out that it is likely. But too much drama really wont be part of my life. A "can do" person always seems to click with me. I don't have to strive to be a positive person as it comes naturally. I have led a blessed life and although some of it is luck, right place, time etc. I do believe that we put ourselves in our own situations. (good and bad) I don't strive to be the life of the party. It happens on occasion though. I am actually pretty reserved at times utilizing my powers of observation cleverly. Sometimes a situation calls for a little comedy relief or ice breaker conversation which I can provide if need be. I have a serious side which normally comes from my career in dealing with sometimes less than positive situations. I am fortunate to put that aside in my personal life. I enjoy helping others. I feel VERY satisfied when I have made a difference. I am very creative and friendly. (might be a left handed thing) I do not (or know how to) play mind games. But beware, I know if they are in play. I love the ocean and the mountains. While AV is my home, I have a place in Big Bear that I call home part time. Its a great getaway and you can see the entire valley from its deck. 80 stairs to the top. Used to be a fire Lookout station. Now just a comfortable/cozy cabin on "Lookout Drive" of course. When I say I don't do the "drama" thing, Its not that I cannot handle it, its just that "drama" seems to cling to some people more than others. I usually avoid these people. But sometimes, I try to help. It usually is in vain. O.K.,, If you are a can do e'r. Positive, have a sense of humor (that can swerve into the "gray" on occasion) No, not rude, crude and socially un-acceptable (although I have heard more than my share) Know a little about a lot. Have little baggage.. I suppose we all have a bit.Then drop me an e mail. I like diverse personalities. Looking for persons who know what they are doing and where they are going. No ones perfect and I know and expect that. I can tell pretty quickly if someone has had less than a healthy previous relationship. It happens a lot and is understandable. Its one's own ability to get past it and look forward to a new day and beginning. Life can be serious, but its all experience. Dont be a victim...you dont have to be. No games please. Stay positive, trust your instincts. So there ya go. Simple. Be you! Laugh, Smile... Its great therapy! If you are a phony... I will know. :p

Meet someone special from United States. By 4, my dad gave me an old broken car horn with two wires sticking out, not a good idea. I plugged it in to an electrical socket and burned down the electrical transformer down the street. By 9, our family dog had racked more air miles than your average traveler. By age 17 I burned the clutch on my VW Beetle... The car was NOT meant to carry 15 teenagers, trust me! At 24 I met my best friend outside a local college bar, eventually becoming the best man at his wedding. At 30 I was living in Kentucky and yes I did go to the Kentucky Derby... that's all I remember! By 35 I had reached 1 Million flown miles with just 1 airline. its not the "Jet Set Life," but more like the "Jet Lag Life;" but I still enjoy the warm peanuts in business class! By age 40 I had visited over 40 countries, climbed plenty of volcanoes, hiked numerous glaciers, explored jungles, but after all this, I have realized there's nothing better that coming home!
So what life experiences do you have to share?

Date people from United States. Hello Match Seekers:
I've got a big heart, sense of humor and looking to make a new best friend that leads to a committed, exclusive relationship. I've been through enough trial and error to know trust and communication are key to a successful relationship. Of course a mutual attraction and chemistry are a must, as well as common interests.
I'm a Christian and enjoy living a healthy lifestyle. However, I also enjoy good glass of wine.use former collegiate basketball player, high school coach, but these days I'm into hot yoga, Crossfit, weight training and hot tubs (required) so I can stay fit enough to snow ski--which is my favorite thing to do. I also enjoy the beach, being in the water or just about anything active outdoors. I like movies and music--ask me to sing you a song and I'll serenade you.
Also, I live in Aliso Viejo and work in Newport Beach, so I doubt I can date someone outside of South OC.
I think it's also important to know someone's "love languages" (quality time, gifts of service, gifts, affirmation, affection)...What are yours? Send me a note or reply and find out what mine are.
I wish you all the best, and look forward to meeting you soon.

Meet single man from United States. I suppose you could say that I am attracted to sensual confident women, that know what they want in life (no silly not whether it’s the Coach or the Prada). Intelligence, charisma, warmth, and a definite sense of humor are absolutely necessary… Afterall, laughter is the essence of a happy fun filled life…
I definitely identify with the work smart/play hard ideology and totally believe in living life to the fullest. I am extremely spontaneous and have been known to invite girl friends on a whim to a weekend in Palm Desert (dinner at Morton’s and dancing at Costa’s?) or Playa del Carmen, Mexico (margaritas on the sand anyone?). So if you’re not adventurous and don’t enjoy trying new things, “Houston, we have a problem!!!”
I believe in love at first sight, but it’s never happened to me (although the first time I saw Eva Langoria…). My most meaningful relationships have always started first as Friends, building in Trust and Harmony, and culminating in endless Passion (where is your mind? Yes, like late night on Cinemax). I’m kind of new to the internet dating thing, so I expect to get to know you first, build a quality friendship, and from there we shall see.
Should we connect there are a few things you should know. I like shopping, so if the Nordstroms Half Yearly sale is on, you know where to find me!! Hey, I just like looking good, being stylish, and smelling delicious!!! I’m really into fitness and work out 5 or 6 days a week, so if you’re intimidated by a great body, I suppose we can turn the lights out!! Also, I’m really into sports, so I will be watching my Boyz on Sundays, so if you’re not down, I’d rather have you enjoy yourself shopping at Nordies or Neiman, just make sure you pick up a little something at Victoria’s Secret on the way out, meet ya at home!
Cheers,
John

Meet men and women from United States. I was born and raised in Montreal. Yes, I speak French but I'm losing it since there isn't a big need around here! :) I'm an only child except for my 2 sisters. Been in SoCal since 2002 and I own my own home. Prior to that I was in NY, Austin and Miami. I'm a software designer by day and a successful day trader in the early mornings. I'm a confident person but not arrogant or a jerk. I like classy, educated, down to earth people and try to stay away from the phoney crowd. I like intelligent banter as well and can discuss most topics in the news. If my head hurts trying to have a conversation with you then that is not a good sign!! I can be silly and goofy at times but serious and responsible when necessary. I have a dry sense of humor and will say the silliest thing with a straight face. Sarcasm in a fun way is my specialty. I'm an extremely honest person and very loyal to my good friends. My family and friends are very important to me and I'm always there when they need me. Not into the bar scene but like to go out with friends and have fun. I'm also fairly well traveled. I've been all over the U.S., Italy, worked in France. I've also been to Greece, Australia, Hawaii and the Caribbean. The French Alps were great but my favorite place to ski is still Whistler! I make sure that I balance my career and personal life. In my spare time I enjoy working out at the gym, biking and hiking to stay active as well as the usual dinners, movies and relaxing evenings at home with that special someone. Not into the river or watching sports from the couch all weekend and I don't own a Harley. Distance for me is not an issue when a quality person is concerned. SD and LA are fine with me. It's a bit weird trying to describe myself so I asked one of my friends and she said that I have gorgeous eyes, a great smile and good sense of humor...oh and I really am 5'10", I heard most guys add 2" to their height! :)
I DON'T play games. If I sense something I move on.
I DON'T serial date. If that's what you do then move along.
I've never been called a flake. If you have then you know what to do.
No jealous/insecure types s'il vous plait!
Looking for a genuine person. She must be intelligent, down to earth, have a great sense of humor and be easy going. Being a little whacky at times, fun and adventurous is ideal. NORMAL would be nice too but that's relative! Lots of baggage but only the kind you need for long weekend trips or vacations. Someone who can be as comfortable seeing a Broadway play as dressing down for a casual night out or dinner at home. She is open minded and has traveled a bit or been exposed to different cultures. Chemistry is key. Talking for hours and losing track of time on a first date is a good sign! I would also like to consider her my best friend. Someone who is active and likes to eat relatively healthy would be a bonus although I do have a sweet tooth that has to be satisfied once in a while! It's really hard to describe my ideal Match. I can point to someone that I'm attracted to but it's not until you get to know their personality and see what's on the inside that you can really know for sure. It's really the little things that count. She must like big dogs because I have two Golden Retrievers, if you hadn't already guessed from the pics! I got one as a puppy and realized what it's like being a parent(at least as far as the sleepless nights)! The 2nd came from a rescue. I don't have kids of my own and don't plan on having any but am open to dating somebody that does. Oh, one more thing...PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE...ENOUGH with the Zoolander puckered lip pics...you know who you are!! :)
A positive and inquisitive email always makes me smile. Some substance really goes a long way too and definitely increases your chances of getting a response. If the interest level is not high enough for you to come across in that way then we are probably not a good match. Best of luck in your search.

Date a man from Aliso Viejo, United States. Hi. I've got a great life, a job I like on good days and can tolerate on the bad days, enough money to do the things I want to do and enough friends and toys to keep me entertained. I can get by on my own, but it would be great to find someone special to put a little chaos in my daily routine. I travel all over the world for work and fun and would love to have a travel partner to explore the world. I'm getting better at this relationship stuff and try to be honest about my thoughts and feelings when I can sort them out. I won't play games with your head or your heart. I'm looking for quality when it comes to a partner...a partner who is willing to share their life with me and wants to be part of my life. Intelligence, honesty, a sense of humor, emotionally security, no fear of intimacy, and a desire to live in the moment are all things I hope to find in you. I want someone I can be attracted to both physically and mentally, a friend to share the victories and defeats life has to offer. I am physically fit and take care of myself. I hope fitness is important to you too. The whole internet dating thing is a bit strange, so let's chat, have some fun with it and see where things go from there. Take a chance. I'm a great catch, just ask me!

Meet a woman from Aliso Viejo, United States. I am a down-to-earth, fun-loving, passionate,and balanced girl seeking the hard to define, but known once experienced chemistry in a partner. I love being outside on a beautiful day. You can catch me hiking, biking, roller blading, or just taking a stroll by the beach, but most days you can catch me in the gym. I love traveling, or just getting away for the occasional long weekend. Laughing, playfulness, a good conversation on just about anything, affection, and passion are a must!
IРІР‚в„ўm seeking someone with a similar interest and life style list, but of course not exactly the same because I love to learn and try new things. I have a huge sense of adventure. I have already crossed off a few things on my bucket list including skydiving, and scuba diving. HeРІР‚в„ўs the kind of guy that has a good sense of humor, manners, honesty, integrity, sense of adventure, positive attitude, strength and desire to travel. Although very masculine he is also a genuine, easy-going, kind-hearted, respectful, fun-loving guy who doesnРІР‚в„ўt take himself too seriously and while funny, can also have an edge, likes to banter in fun, is compassionate, passionate, open-minded, affectionate and very athletic. Additionally he likes to get out and do things (especially on the weekend), has a strong sense of adventure, and sometimes just likes goofing around people watching somewhere. He likes the simple things and is easily content.
I am looking for someone that has sincere interest in establishing a committed relationship. I enjoy my life, but would love to share build a great life with someone.
I know my profile maybe somewhat brief-but you can't hear someone laughing (at you or with you) while they're reading it! So if you're curious about something I left out just ask!
If I don't respond please accept it as a polite ''no thank you'' and good luck to all on finding true love!..
P.S. Please have a photo
Thank you for reading my profile this far! I would appreciate an email over a wink

Date men and women from Aliso Viejo, United States. Definitely feminine, warm, kind, and affectionate. Pretty quick-witted, I'm looking for a verbal sparring partner. IРІР‚в„ўm very much a girly-girl, but having two brothers and raising three boys, IРІР‚в„ўm not afraid to get dirty and won't cry if I chip my manicure. I can throw a baseball, drink a beer with the guys, and even clean a fish. Sometimes I can be a bit of a smart ass, but not at the expense of someone's feelings. I try to see the humor in the little things. People are funny...Life is funny! And it's way too short to take everything so seriously! Overall IРІР‚в„ўm a pretty ambitious and adventurous kinda girl with a positive outlook on life. I like to do things that scare me and surround myself with people who challenge and stimulate me intellectually and physically. Life is what you make of it, so everyday I ask myself, have I made a positive difference in my own life or in the lives of others? That may sound a little kooky to some of you but it works for me and I sleep well at night.
Above all else, IРІР‚в„ўm Mama to four great kids. Two are now away at college, leaving me with two teenagers at home. TheyРІР‚в„ўre now very busy living their own lives, but they still happily keep me on my on my toes, inspire me daily to be a better person, and keep me very entertained. Though they're growing up and allow me some time for myself, my kids are still my number one priority, and I hope yours are for you as well.
Who is this man I'm looking for? A true gentleman with a big, kind heart. Smart and funny is sexy to me. Not "telling jokes all the time" funny, but clever, witty. IРІР‚в„ўm a sucker for a man who can make me laugh! I like a confident, communicative, passionate, manly man who knows who he is and what he wants and isnРІР‚в„ўt afraid to say it. I want him to challenge and inspire me; intellectually, physically, emotionally. He is chivalrous, authentic, honest, and loyal with character and integrity. He knows how to wear a suit...and a great smile wouldn't hurt! I want that elusive, ridiculous chemistry...the kind that keeps you from wanting to go sleep at night because you can't stop talking and you can't keep your hands off of each other.
I have lived and loved enough to learn that to make a relationship work it takes two people giving 100%. It takes work, communication, and compromise; not walking away at the first hurdle you encounter. To the right man, I will give my whole heart. If you think you may be my guy, please, don't just wink at me, SEND ME AN EMAIL. I wish you all the best of luck.
**Small addendum to my profile- If you are currently or have EVER been a client/patient of mine, or even if I was just your process group moderator, please don't wink and please don't email me. We can NEVER date! I respect your privacy, thank you for respecting mine.

I am looking to find that needle in a haystack person with a sense of humor that doesn't quit, that loves to laugh, knows when to be serious and responsible, and yet at the same time not take themselves to seriously. That person that values traditional family values, enjoys time with their families, children and close friends. One that is always up for a challenge, looks forward to a new adventures. Staying active and taking care of oneself is very important and having goals to be the best at what you do and enjoy, a sense of spirituality, and a caring for others :) These are qualities that are important to me and my beliefs.

I love to go walking and discovering new places, meeting new friends and just being the best I can be in all I do. I am certainly not perfect but I have a good heart ,I am easy to get along with and scrub up well....
I guess what i am looking for is someone much the same, an easy going kind of guy with good values, A hopeless romantic and has goals and aspirations for the second part of his life. Gets on well with people and has great friends, I believe that speaks volumes on the type of person someone is by the company he keeps.

Meet a soulmate from California, United States. I enjoy surrounding myself with friends, family and people who generally are interested in the world around them and are engaged in it. I've had the good fortune of traveling the world and always like to learn something about the place I visit especially through the food! A healthy lifestyle, a good book or movie, cooking, skiing in some powder or hiking through the Sierras are just a few things I enjoy and love to do with others. I work hard and love what I do and am grateful for the opportunities I've been given. My biggest regret is not having children, but I trust God knows what he has in store for me! I have been married and while I never thought I would divorce, I've learned so much through the experience and have grown. I'm still a work in progress, but more than anything I think acting with personal integrity, honesty and respect is key in any situation. I'm a lady, I prefer discussion to drama, can fend for myself which is why I'm looking for a partner, a friend, and someone who has my back. I don't need someone to complete me, just complement (and compliment) me! I'm attracted to tall, dark and handsome...I know, a bit cliche but true. Hey, I'm 5'11 in heels! I take good care of myself, but also love to eat, get plenty of sleep, really enjoy wine (especially red) and get cranky if I don't get to my boot camp classes during the week. Getting to know someone well and developing a friendship before a relationship is very important to me. If you aren't patient, then I'm probably not a good match.
