Date men and women from United States / California / Chico, 54 year old

Date a soulmate from Chico, United States. I moved to Chico 22 years ago and love it here. Bidwell Park is just a few minutes of my house, and my second home (No shower though!). I spend time in the park nearly every day. I’m easy going and live a simple life – enjoying nature, music, dancing, movies, eating delicious healthy food, and exercising. I meditate and do yoga daily. You'll find me a good listener and communicator, a gentleman and respectful. I enjoy silliness and laughter as well as "real" talks about spirituality, goals, feelings and needs. I play several instruments and like to sing. Hopefully, you won't put in earplugs when I get out my mandolin. I can cut a rug on the dance floor - so get your dancing shoes! In relationship, I’m affectionate - I enjoy holding hands, touching and cuddling. Laughter and connection with close friends and family are the spice of life. My 20-year-old daughter is still in town, and busy going to school, working, and creating her own life as an adult. In my photos, I'm casual, but I clean up fairly well.
Ultimately, I'm looking for my life partner and best friend. Obviously, that doesn't happen instantaneously, and we have to start as strangers, getting to know each other and becoming friends over time. At least you know what my long term goal is! You are kind and caring, interested in spiritual growth, take excellent care of your body through diet and exercise, like to sing and dance and be in nature. You enjoy honest, open communication and are looking for a partnership to share love, open-hearted intimacy and authentic connection.
Right now, I am just looking within 30 miles of Chico. Sorry, I just don't have the time and energy to get to know someone long-distance.

Meet men and women from Chico, United States. I have many diverse interests...I play a few musical instruments, love photography, camping and the outdoors, traveling. I have a teaching background, and am currently working for the National Park Service in Yosemite Valley for the summer, and have done training and facilitating in a variety of contexts. I am in a Masters in Communication Studies program at Chico State University. We all have our checklists and wish lists, but I'm looking for a connection with someone emotionally mature, intellectually curious, physically healthy, artistic minded, and who can see the world through wise eyes.

Date someone special from Chico, United States. They said this is crazy. No one out there is interested in a guy that has two young children that come first in his life. People today don't care about what you did in your career as a photojournalist or in film, TV, radio, in the corporate world, or in the war. They said, if you tell a nice woman you want to be a good friend before anything more can happen, she will most likely walk away. Even though you have a small home in a small town they will find out you came from NY and worked in NY,SF, and like the city. They will never believe that a guy from NY, can ride a horse so will, and loves too hangout at the ocean.
Some times it is good not to listen to others. I like to laugh and play like a twenty something guy,from time to time, but going to a film or a concert in a small room, or maybe a train trip are some of the things I would like to do with a friend like you. Going out for fine food, long talks, and a walk on the beach as the sun sets seems like a good way to know each other. I like to play guitar and often spend time alone playing and working on a song; if you wish you can be a part of the music as well. I am into art and want to make images in paint and photography rather then go shopping. I am looking for one different person with a loving heart that believes that God set down the way to live to be happy. Some one filled with love and kindness that would like to be around a smart, kind, giving, compassionate, creative, and caring person. Look, they said, your not that good looking guy anymore, they will see your picture. Well that is something you will have to decide; It is after all the way you look at the world and life; is it not?
Looking for a kind, smart, and happy friend that has a loving heart and would like to play in life.

Meet single man from Chico, United States. What are you looking for in a relationship? I'm looking for companionship. I'm not ready for marriage.

Date people from Chico, United States. Life is truly a bowl of cherries and at times there are pits that must be endured .... should you choose to be with me, you shall enjoy all the best in life as I am a snob to be reckoned with ... shall I just go now?

Meet men and women from California, United States. I am a great, woman, lover, friend, companion, sounding board, employee, mom, stepmom, and all my PICTURES ARE CURRENT LOL.
What am I like? Just like you. I want someone in my life. I like to do all the same things you do. Travel, camp, go the breakfast, shop, make love, make money, make someone like this profile. I miss football parties, and a blanket on the floor by the fire, and someone pulling up in the driveway after work that takes my breath away.
I want to ask a man, "how was your day, babe?" and truly CARE what his response is, instead of feeling like his roommate.
I love to give and get affection, but I am not high maintenance. We will determine the pace...together. I do like to leave notes in your lunch, if that's ok? Maybe rest my hand on your thigh or stroke the back of your neck, while we drive somewhere? I like to touch....
I keep myself and my house clean, I am financially solvent, and I need you to be too.
I have never had a man be disappointed in the way I look, and I try hard to stay attractive.
I absolutely understand the work required to make a relationship a quality one. If you want someone of quality in your and your family's life, then I am that person.
What makes it even harder to meet someone, is that I have two kids at home that I adore. They are with me the front half of every week D15/S19. I also have a demanding job. Relocating really isn't an option.
If I interest you, email me or IM me. I have a great personality, and a lot to offer. I am kind, smart, funny and sensuous. I like friends and family gatherings. I will be the same on day 1 as day 1,000. I don't morph when the "new" wears off into someone you can stand. I won't put you in the poor house, emotionally or financially, trying to make me happy.
I don't need a man to take care of me, just looking for someone to spend time with, and see what develops from there.
If you will delete you profile for me, you are the man of my dreams :~). If you are a serial dater who thrives on contact from these dating sites, pass me by. I am worth the effort.
***** if you smoke a "little" or are trying to quit, we will NOTTTT get along, so please do not contact me. ********

Date a woman from California, United States. I am just looking right now... I am new to the area and would like to meet new people and find out what the area has to offer as far as the arts go.
I enjoy listening to all types of music, dancing in the living room and long, hot bubble baths for two.
I am not into the party scene. I am not a big drinker nor a drug user and please do not contact me if you are.
I finished raising my children and am not interested in dating a man who still has children living with them..
I am easy going and laid back and don't have a temper...I like to smile and can really appreciate a good sense of humor. I would like to meet someone who is enjoying his life as much as I am enjoying mine. No drama and no bs.
