Date men from United States / California / Corona del Mar, 48 year old

Date single man from Corona del Mar, United States. I guess the idea here is to give you some flavor for what I am all about.. hopefully after reading this you won't be rushing to brush your teeth but rather wanting a bigger taste ;-) I think my life experiences make me extremely unique and apparently I must have some decent qualities because I have been blessed with great relationships with extraordinarily beautiful, amazing and intelligent women my entire life.. so then why am I here you might ask?? Allow me to provide some background that hopefully you can appreciate.. First, I am not afraid of commitment as I was married to an unbelievable girl who tragically passed away a number of years ago, and yes, that experience did factor into my remaining single. Additionally, my daughter was 2 1/2 months old at the time and I have raised her on my own ever since.. she is now 14 and has been my life's investment. She has taught me so much about unconditional love and made me a much better person in the process. Consider too that I have also built 2 businesses and held down an Executive Management job as well and I think you will agree that I didn't have a lot of time to devote to a serious relationship. That was then and this is now.. these experiences have put me in a spot where I know the true value of a great woman much better than any man you will ever meet. I would love to meet a girl with great style, intelligence, humor and glowing smile. I have dated enough fashionistas that I have been left with a decent sense of style and a great appreciation for a woman that knows how to put herself together from extremely casual to the dressing to the nines. You will never see me flinch at the price of your shoes or handbags.. haha. My dad was a Navy Seal so needless to say I was raised with a code of honor and chivalry, never once did I ever see my mother walk through a door she opened on her own. I grew up in what most would consider "the hood" and I wouldn't trade it.. odd to say that but I think it provided me with the strength to handle everything that life would throw at me in the years to come. I also played hockey back in the day so you don't need to worry about my masculinity whatsoever ;-) My life has been a crazy ride and there has been both great fun and tragedy along the way.. I don't think a lot of men could have handled some of the hurdles I have faced.. the peeks and valleys might have done them in, I am proud of keeping my life on an even keel even in the greatest storms.. and I think that has been a significant reason why people are drawn to me. Meet me once and people tell me they can sense that strength. I am a crazy romantic at heart, and while I have had strong feelings for people over the years it's been a long time since I can say I was in love, I would like to be able to say that again. I am extremely passionate and need that in a partner too.. if you ever saw the old movie "American Gigolo" with Richard Gere I once had a girlfriend tell me that I was heartbreakingly, dangerously romantic like that.. I think I have outgrown the dangerous part and hopefully the heartbreaking too.. haha. Don't put it past me to do something completely random and a bit nuts, but I promise not to embarrass you! I like to lead an active lifestyle and would expect that in a partner as well. Traveling is mandatory. You can see that I like boats and bikes and you should too.. or at least one of them! I enjoy a morning Harley ride up PCH to a cute breakfast place and then maybe meeting friends for a day on the boat.. life is short and you need to love to laugh, if you don't smile a lot then we won't get along in the end. If you have your health and your loved ones there truly are no bad days and I live that way. I have high expectations and you should too.. not sure I will meet "that girl" here but I figure it's like lotto.. you have to have a ticket to have a chance to win so why not! All the best to you in your searches.. Stay classy San Diego!

Meet a soulmate from Corona del Mar, United States. I love the outdoors and great conversation with friends and family. I enjoy being healthy (mentally and physically), being active, yoga, meditation and am constantly attracted to new experiences. I am a well-balanced and intelligent and energetic. In relationships I seek mental stimulation as well as physical. I love to learn and seek and partner where we are both teachers and students....
I am attracted to someone who isn’t afraid to speak their mind, is intelligent, passionate, affectionate, confident, self-aware, a good communicator and appreciates all natures wonderful gifts. I appreciate someone who can challenge me, who can have a good debate about a topic and express their passion while remaining open to others views. I believe that it's only when you confront the fundamental absurdity of life that you begin to live honestly.
I love to be around people who have a passion for life. And an 'open' soul. I am always learning new things. I also find the more that I heal things in my life that I didn't realize needed healing, the more vibrantly I am able to live. Without the weight of 'unforgiveness', life is so much more fluid.
Humility allows us to be ourselves – we no longer need to prove to everyone that we’ve got it all together. Humility allows us to learn and grow – when we admit our weaknesses, we have taken the first step in learning to address them. and humility allows people into our lives – true, authentic friendships are not possible without the ability to be completely transparent with one other.
I believe......Our words reveal our thoughts;
our manners mirror our self-esteem;
our actions reflect our character;
and our habits predict the future!

Date a man from Corona del Mar, United States. Hi there! If I had one word to describe myself, it would be "Active". If I had one word to describe you, it would also be "Active". Please note that both those are Active with a capital A. If I had one word to describe us, it would be "Chemistry", with a capital C, which is not something you know online until you actually meet someone in person.

Meet someone special from Corona del Mar, United States. I love travel and adventure. I have done a fair amount of traveling and look forward to doing more. I am hopeing to find someone to have a long maybe life long relationship with. I still think I would like to have children but if I found the right person and they didn't want them it isn't a deal breaker. I love conversations about people, places, politics, philosophy, science, etc. I enjoy time with friends doing almost anything. I don't care much for watching sports unless I know one of the players personally but I do like the get togethers surrounding a game. I am as happy at home watching a movie as I am spending a night on the town. I currently own a resturant in Laguna Beach but it is not something I love and hope to be free of it in the not too distant future so I can travel freely and enjoy my life. I am looking to meet someone friendly, happy, compationate and smart.. Someone interesting that will bring new things into my life and be good to talk to.
