Date a man from California, United States. I'm complicated and thoroughly male, but definitely have a caring, sensitive side. Humor is a great thing in life. If you are the super-serious-Sally type, maybe you're too intense for me. A chuckle, and a ready smile are a couple of my niceties...and I like an active life and trying to be healthy, and Malapropisms. I'm the guy that fixes things...but I'm tired of where I've been within certain parameters, as it hasn't changed....so I'm new to this and trying it out. I'm interested and 'she' must be interesting. I push the envelope a bit in life. (for instance, I'm building a full sized experimental passenger airplane). Never been into endless Television type sports. Been told I'm a hopeless romantic. I'm the guy that likes a quiet fire and petting a cat. Tropical is my forte, but I've been though Europe and the UK and Thailand and...yea, I've traveled a bit. But I'm simple at heart. I love a curvy woman in lingerie. Hmmm...(did I say that?) Yep. I guess I did. Something that a lady told me was "amazing", was in response to me revealing I never use the bathroom standing up, and I leave the seat down after I'm finished. Lol. I had no idea it was so gentlemanly but according to her it was almost regal. Truly merited a hearty Lol. TMI and cringing? I say this only because it appears to differentiate me from the typical cro-magnum male. I have been known to grunt loudly and swing my arms around though when in the presence of fast motorcycles and private jet aircraft. Sheesh, I'm a guy. Guilty as charged. =)

Date a soulmate from California, United States. Simple, quiet, thoughtful, and introspective. Respectful, understanding, generous, diligent, and of service.
A good sense of humor, understanding that we can't take ourselves too seriously, and that the picture is much bigger than we understand.
Looking for a partner who can appreciate these qualities and can offer the same. I hope that her world is not that complicated and that she strives to keep it so. I believe that if my partner thinks that something is important, it is, whether I understand it or not.
I enjoy travel and talking, coffee, baseball and soccer games with the kids. The best vacation is one where we cannot be found and that the cell phones don't work.
Athleticism is good. It is not just something that keeps you fit. It is a way of life. Something that teaches resilience, discipline, and team work. Trying to be better today than we were yesterday. That we are works in progress and will never get it right every time.
The essential tools for life.
I enjoy hearing different points of view, understanding that all are as valid as the others.
....anything that fills the cup so that we can all drink.

Date a man from Carmel Valley, United States. I suddenly have a lot of free times on my hands that I did not have before. I'd like to enjoy the rest of my life with my best friend.
I like to travel and try new things. I enjoy fine dining, beach, sand, weekend getaways, cuddling, movies, cooking, animals, a good cup of coffee and life. I choose to see the good thing in everything.
I am grateful for my life experiences and would like to find a partner to share what life has to offer! Life is too short to send a lot of emails or texts. We meet after a couple of connection and see if we click and feel the chemistry. I'm hoping to meet someone that shares some of my interests. I need someone who believes the physical aspect of a relationship is also important and a priority.
Meet single man from Carmel Valley, United States. Allow me to offer a little "Match Protocol." I know we all have our personal criteria of; Looks, Profile, and 1st Impressions. And I know you women get a lot of contacts. So... If you're not interested at any point, for any reason, please push that little no-thank you button. If it's bad timing just respond "Rain check?" When the time is right, you can always Wink or Email! Thanks
Okay, on with my profile... as of July 2012
I was married only once from 1984-2000. I have a married Son-26 with my Grandson-4, Daughter-24, and Daughter-21. I maintain a close relationship to all of them. Which leads me to my priorities in life; Family is always number one, friends are a close second, and I'm in there somewhere. So, how am I in a relationship? The situation dictates the mood; I can be anything from palling around to loving and romantic. My ultimate goal is a relationship that grows into a companionship of mutual devotion. Sounds good on paper!
Now let me knock out most of those "What I want in a guy" list...
-Sense of humor: About 90% of the time. Hey, I am on Match! Does that count? If not, read on. Definitely a priority of mine too.
-Activities indoors and out: Oh yeah. Let's see now, in the last 12 months I have hiked, swam, golfed, biked, hunted, fished, camped, played tennis, beach volleyball, Scrabble and bridge. I've been to a couple movies and a few concerts, bands of my era like Chicago. I missed the 12 month cutoff for snow and water skiing. I'm not looking for a match to join in on all these activities but sharing some mutual interests is a good thing.
-Dining and dancing: I enjoy dancing the night away. I don't know specific dance steps but I can definitely keep my partner swinging. I also enjoy cooking, being cooked for, cooking together, and dining out.
-Honesty: Not a chance. Do guys really admit they're not?... Okay, yes I'm honest, sometimes to a fault. I warn people not to ask me questions unless they are willing to accept honest answers.
-Morals and Integrity: They're pretty high. I live by what I call an "anti-hypocrite doctrine." If I don't accept it in others, I don't accept it in myself. And vise-versa!
-Successful: I'd say succeeding... always had a professional job in a technical field.
-Financially secure: I'm not in debt but I'm not ready to retire.
-Intelligent: I'll have to say "yes" on this one. I'd have to be stupid to say "no"
-Romantic: Absolutely, and a good kisser. So I'm told. I know... You'll be the judge of that.
-Sensitive: I always try to be considerate and thoughtful to others.
-Tender, Gentle: see Sensitive
-Compassionate: I certainly can be.
-Dress: I prefer casual; shorts and sandals, but I own a tux and I'm not afraid to use it.
-Travel: I've been all over the U.S., visited Germany and Singapore for work/recreation. I'd like to visit ancient civilizations, Italy, Greece, Egypt, etc. Again, I'm way open to suggestions.
-No Players please: If that means moving on after discovering we're not a match, that's me, and hopefully you.
-Opinionated: I'm throwing this one in. And, yes! I have strong opinions on most topics. I believe people are a combination of their opinions and their actions. You are what you think and what you do. Pretty simple.
That should give you a little more insight about thinking I'm a match to pursue. Like some of my answers, I can certainly be serious, but I definitely prefer living on the lighter side of life.
