Date men and women from United States / California / Campbell, 52 year old

Date single man from California, United States. Great to see you and thanks for taking the time to read through my profile. :)
I am originally from Japan, but moved here to N.California as a child, 5’1” 125lbs, athletic build, with sound mind and body…never been married with no kids…though I'm open to the possiblity of having one.
Everyone has their own ideal person and I guess I'm no different..but I tend to gravitate towards those who are happy, have an open mind and heart towards others and within themselves..that is someone who is innately kind, funny, tolerant, curious and respectful of other people. Someone who has passion and is passionate about people, hobbies, and their work. I know its nearly impossible to be totally compatible (though some would disagree), but I think a good relationship is often based on some commonality (as a starting point) with a little give and take and also the willingness and the openness to embrace or experience new things.
I enjoy life..with an interest in a variety of things as a panacea from the daily grind. I try to live a simple and healthy lifestyle. I'm most happiest when I'm spending time with friends or family and doing things I enjoy (even by myself) such as relaxing by watching movies either in theatres or at home, soaking in a jacuzzi tub, visiting art galleries and museums (especially art from the classics to modern avant garde), creating art (esp Japanese origami, kirgami collages), browsing book stores, antique shops, cafes, visiting wineries, digital photography, going to concerts, attending sporting events (Giants, 49ers, Warriors, A's, Sharks), and weekend getaways. I also have a passion for crisscrossing the country on train trips and by car (Route 66 anyone?) dining out (and trying out various ethnic cuisines), hole in the wall wine bars and coffee houses. I can and do enjoy music of all types..80's new wave mixed in with a little soul, jazz, country, raggae, and classic rock. I also like to run, walk, bike ride, roller skate and workout at the gym.
Although I'm not great at it, I do enjoy cooking (grilled filet of sole anyone?), and yes disciplined enough to regularly clean and actually take out the garbage and vacuum the house without being asked! I'm not a neat freak, but I like to live in a nice place...and keeps me free of allergies :-)
My family relationship is also important to me. I like to visit my parents as often as I can. I hope my match also does too. :-)
I enjoy being with people, but can equally be comfortable in my own space and time (don't we all have those moments?) and I am defintely not clingy...if you need some time with friends or just be reflective and spend some time alone..please do!
Well if you have read down this far... I like you already ;-)
Hope to hear from you if find me interesting.
If not, thank you irregardless, and I hope everyone here finds whatever they seek whether its friendship or true love...best wishes.

Meet people from California, United States. I keep going over it and over it again in my mind I get these flashback and I feel sooooo good, This is one night that I'll never forget You see, it was just like in the movies I mean, it actually happened just like this...
No ladies, I don’t speak Italian but I do speak Romance (in my Pepe le pew voice)
No! I don’t expect to have sex on the first date…but my question is what happens after? The sex is the easy part, I need an energetic, funny, cute, healthy lady. I am serious in my search, so if you are not, please do not contact me!
I know, you can tell a little about a person if you look at their selection of photos and please don't take everything you read to seriously. May we all find our souls desire, love and happiness.
Ok, I’ve been corrected, Pepe le pew is French and not Italian, but doesn’t that prove my point of not speaking I T A L I A N? (Said with a smile)
Ok ladies, thank you for reading my profile. What type of women am I looking for? First off she must be looking for me! And that’s someone who’s looking for a Blackman, not just a black man, not other or no preference and I say this only to save you and I time, and for those of you that don’t like what I’m saying, just take a timeout, go stand in the corner for ten minutes and come back, I’m sure you will feel better. Good luck!
Ok you better hurry because both of us are getting older and our first date will be a trip to Walgreens!
Yes Ladies, I do have tattoos (2) and I thought this only fare that I make this known before “Taking my clothes off” I know there are some people that have some stereo typical images of little people, Asians, Latin, Blacks and yes tattoos! I try and take each person at face value, so if you are one of them that pre judge I’m letting you know in advance.
If you know what you want and you’re viewing my profile! That’s a great start.
NO strings! Of course unless you request them. ROFL
I just figured out how this match thing works! I'll explain later. Ok it's later I changed my Ethnicity: to Black/Asian/White/Other..... Because SOME PEOPLE and you know who you are do that and that's not cool! So I did it to but I changed mine back, so come on people, stop playing games. NOW I REALLY FEEL BETTER.
I know I know, the last time you read my profile there was a lot of funny and very entertaining stuff on here, well I was told by a female friend that I had too much info, so I deleted it and besides you didn’t write me.
Trust me, I'm a funny guy, I like pets, good with kids, firm with breast when needed, my word is bond, culturally aware and very respectful of others, I am as some would say “Old fashioned” in my ways with women, now I don’t believe a women’s place is in the kitchen because I think I can cook better then you any way, but I do like being the man and you a women.
A women that's sexy, funny and not bigger than me! Of course I still need commonality, chemistry, respect of culture and most of all to be in love. So wish me luck? Because if I’m not the guy for you then there’s someone better who is and I hope you find your heart's desire as I seek mine.
"For every women that needs a man, there’s a man that needs you too and maybe that man is me"

Meet someone special from California, United States. The best way to get to know each other is to spend time together, but I am taking a leap into the on-line world and think this a great way to break the ice and get introduced to woman with similar character, goals and dreams.
I am originally from Canada (sorry but I lost most of my accent and the "Eh") eh. As the father of 3 wonderful children, I try to lead by example and instill great values in their lives.I surround myself with kind, honest and hard working people..
I love to spend time with my children and welcome their friends over to our home. Being active alone, with friends and family or with people who have a variety of interests is also important to me. Sports have always played a role in my life and I play golf and ice hockey on a regular basis. I do value down time, just relaxing someplace quiet, reading, listening to music, enjoying the moment anywhere, working out or watching a little TV.
Employment in a project management position, part owner with the same company for 25 years has been fulfilling.
Listening to and going to concerts for most types of music, dancing, going to movies, sporting events, (pro and amateur) and going out to dinner are just a few of my interests. I am looking forward to new adventures and getting out of my comfort zone.
I would like to meet "a woman who gets me....I get her”. If she is active, compassionate, likes to be spontaneous, has a great sense of humor and believes in the value of good communication, then we will have all of that in common. My greatest wish is that she will have a blend of a kind heart, active body, loving soul and quick mind.
"Friends are always saying "you really need to get out more" . . . .that must mean they think I should travel, eh? Since I have always loved to travel, I hope to find a lady companion who might enjoy taking a journey with me - both literally and figuratively.

Date a man from California, United States. Always wanting to put my best foot forward, I am trying to figure out if it is the left, or the right...Or the one in my mouth!
I am a very optimistic person, even in the face of bad news. You never get things moving forward with negativity. So, I use a lot of humor. Maybe some irony...Ok, a little sarcasm.
I have traveled extensively in the past, and find many things that I like about the different countries I have been to. But, I have always come back to my home country.
I am a very good cook, I like the theater of the kitchen and preparing good meals for my loved ones.
I think my friends would describe me as loyal, reliable and too smart for my own good! That is because I beat them at Scrabble and I remember every mistake I ever made!
What I am looking for is an Asian woman. I cannot go against my heart. I think Asian women are the most beautiful women in the world. I cook many Chinese dishes and Thai food, so I have studied the customs. Fascinating! The long history has shaped the culture and the food. Just my preference.
I have been to 16 countries, flown over 8 types of aircraft and lived through 253 parachute jumps. I was a professional Alpine ski racer at one time and a chef at a bed and breakfast in New Zealand when I was 20. I guess...I am most proud of raising two daughters who are smart, kind and beautiful.
I want to find to find an Asian gal who wants to start a journey of life. I am a calm, kind guy. No drama.
I have lived a full life...But, I want to live another full life. It's time.

Date single man from United States. Just turned fifty-one. Scary, I know. I have my thirteen year old daughter with me every other week. She has a dog, Mijo, part of the package.
When there is time I like to spend the weekend at the beach or in the Sierras. I like to vacation and travel, Hawaii, Europe, etc.
My friends have described me as loyal, honest, communicative, dependable, and funny. I love kids, have worked in education. I'm a middle child from a family of eight kids.
My ideal match??? I have no idea. Two things come to mind, super nice and a warm smile. Other than that I have no preconceptions.

Meet people from United States. I am an imaginative, intelligent, valiant, attractive, strapping, fascinating, jocular, and decidedly humble non-conformist. And I own a thesaurus. Actually, I'm an artist, of Italian descent, with a twisted sense of humor. Born and raised in San Francisco, I've worked my way down the peninsula to the South Bay, a journey of unending trials and turmoil mixed with madcap misadventures of near grand proportions. In my head, at least.
I have an artist's sense of wonder and imagination and love to share ideas, beliefs and feelings with a special person. I'm a hopeless romantic and love making a woman feel special. And I am a real movie buff. I love to travel, especially Europe. My main picture is from a recent trip to Budapest. The rest are from a London trip of late 2008, except for the example of my art which, of course, should astound you.
I like people watching, hanging out in coffee shops drawing, and collecting the most absurd and off-the-wall toys I can find. I like most types of music, except rap and most country, both of which make my ears bleed due to an ancient gypsy curse.
I'm looking for a sexy woman, with similar interests, but I like trying new things, so I am open to a woman who has her own. She should like to laugh since I'm so serious all the time. Physical appearance is important, I won't lie. I'm a guy, it's hard-wired into us. I love feminine women, who like wearing makeup, lipstick and perfume. The longer the hair, the better, but that's not a prerequisite. She should like art, galleries, museums, (hopefully) scary movies, and not be allergic to cats because mine stays. She should very much like Public Displays of Affection, and want to travel. Recent picture, please.
