Date men and women from United States / California / Berkeley, 56 year old - page 2

Date a woman from Berkeley, United States. I'm a creative, yet strategic professional woman who loves to laugh, explore and be challenged. My friends describe me as loyal, fun loving but also responsible. I'm old enough to know you need be to flexible and resilient to maneuver through life's challenges, and young enough to be grateful for everything that is still ahead of me.
I'm looking for a mature, grown-up man who will be my "partner in crime". He won't be intimidated by a strong woman who is comfortable showing her vulnerable side to the right person. You know how to work hard but you also play with equal excitement. Laughter, joy, friends and family are important, but you also know how enjoy a quiet night at home sharing good bottle of wine, conversation and take out. If this interests you, let's grab a coffee and see where the conversation take us.
Cheers!

Date someone special from Berkeley, United States. Swimming in winter rain, pan con tomate, chocolate caliente duro, long walks aka hikes in the hills, Cal Shakes summer theater, lazy weekends doing nothing much at all, and reading fiction and poetry aloud, and Spanish are among my favorite things.
I aspire to cook more and burn less food, read Sunday NYT weekly (and remove blue wrappers M-F), learn to dance West Coast Swing, get into SF for deYoung, SF MOMA, etc., volunteer more, become iPhone fluent, and find the perfect IPA.
I'm a beach person, devoted mom (of two young adults), originally from the North East and...
the man of my dreams is open, true, kind, expressive, giving, brainy, physical, inclusive, energetic, unpretentious, fun, a gentleman and a family man who loves and is close with his kids and his own friends, content with his life and work, yet excited about what comes next.
for perfection, add a deep voice, and/or a certain playfulness, and/or the feeling that we were summer camp friends.
please send me a message if you want to get in touch. I don't know what to do with "winks"...
thanks

Meet people from Berkeley, United States. About me: friendly, inquisitive, at times philosophical, a romantic. I love discussing the inexplicable, having my world expanded, being moved to tears by music or dance, debating a matter of opinion, and laughing till I can't stand up. I grew up in a demonstrative Italian-American family, so physical contact is a normal part of interaction for me. I love a big party, a one-on-one visit, and time by myself. I'm as happy going out dancing or to a movie or dinner party as I am reading a book. And I read a LOT of books.
What matters: the people I love. The arts—all of them, but especially literature, dance, and music. Intellectual stimulation and utter silliness. New people and places mixed with the comfort of old friends and my own home. Natural beauty and fantastic architecture. The excitement of change and the reassurance of the familiar. Conversations that make four hours feel like half of one, with someone whose mind feels like an endless exploration.
The most romantic gift I've ever gotten was a grocery bag containing goat's milk brie, a yellow bell pepper, two kinds of chocolate, and a box of organic blueberries. Why? Because several weeks before that, when my new amour had asked me what I liked to eat, not only did he listen to what I said, he remembered.
About you: I'm looking for an equal partner—open, assertive, intelligent, responsible, and giving. Someone with broad interests who's always curious about what might come next. Someone who makes me laugh. Wit and wisdom in the right combination can be intoxicating, as can the touch of a hand.
I'd love to hear from you. The best conversations come with body language and the inflections of voice. That's the next step.

Date men and women from Berkeley, United States. Some of the Stuff on my Fridge:
"I think that Paradise may be a kind of library ..."
Jorge Louis Borges
" I yam, what I yam ."
Popeye
" All things being equal ... I'd rather be in Philadelphia ..."
William Claude Dukenfield's tombstone
I have been on this site in the hopes of meeting a friend or two. It would be nice to think that a long term relationship might happen as well; however, anything else would be gravy...
I feel that I am a most fortunate person. I have a very good life. I'm curious about the world and find as I get older that the curiosity is not lessening, but instead becoming much more acute.
I would like to meet a grown up man with a life of his own.
I would take a kind heart and a sense of humor; over a fat wallet and a high I.Q.
Any day of the week.
THIS ... is all over in a heart beat.
Love the people that you care about.
Pursue those things that you are passionate about.
And always TRY, to do the right thing.
Times a'wastin - seize the moment.
