Date a soulmate from California, United States. To my special angel, I’ve read 2000 bios to find you. I’m still full of hope.
We’ve seen much of life; this will make the future very rich, and a lot of fun! We’ll find new experiences. We’ll share the cream of what we’ve previously enjoyed. This time, I expect the cream will rise to the top, and will do so quickly.
The good Lord has blessed me with many interests, an eye for nature, a kindness for animals, a calmness amid crisis, a blue chip education (Stanford, Harvard), a fascinating international career, fun hobbies and a desire to continue to do good. I have an adventurous side, boat, bike.
I so enjoy creation:wildflowers, bold landscapes, butterflies, wind, the sounds of rain, the surprise of hail. I have limitless curiosity about falcons, owls, hummingbirds; I like to rescue dogs, cats, saving animals from the road. I can sit still long enough that birds will land on me. (I had a grouse family walk across my boots.) Kindness to animals says much about a person.
The natural world would probably be a fit for us: Rushing creeks, crashing waves, tide pools. We might snuggle on a starry night, holding hands – and pointing with the other hand while exclaiming what we see.
I’ve a variety of interests and an adventurous streak. For about 15 yrs, international responsibilities brought me to over 100 countries. I often found a local expert to take me behind-the-scenes. This was fabulous in Athens, Bangkok, Beijing, where much of the best is “off limits.” But I traveled alone. What I missed is you, the romantic, affectionate, curious, energetic partner. I’d return to any of those places with you.
But do we agree: travel is no substitute for a true home. I’m spontaneous about travel, but intentional about roots and would need you to be the same. I am totally happy to hang out, if it's with you.
I love giggling and bursting laughter, so contagious! Jokes are a must. Speeches, after-dinner comments, board meetings, all seem better when begun with a joke, especially with humor that leads to a provocative thought. 6 yrs ago, to address extreme tension in a company I was rescuing from bankruptcy, I began to tell jokes every day!
Please, in our life ahead, no humor at the expense of others. The clever, insightful, or unexpected are welcome anytime. Special terms of endearment, reserved for lovers, are IN. But put-down humor is OUT.
Communication is vital for real passion. “Talking” is just one part of it. I want to know what makes you squeeze gently or hard, with one arm or both. To know what you enjoy, share in it, to kiss passionately … that’s quality time.
My search is for a heart-mate, not a “trophy wife”. I seek a loving, loyal, affectionate, caring, sharing, self confident, warm partner. I will brag about you unless you tell me not to. If this romance is right, we’ll throw ourselves at one another, feeling safe and relaxed. Passion will be natural and perpetual.
In a similar way, having sex is out, making love is in. Intimacy must carry a special purpose: to bring us increasingly close each time, again and again. If we should “fight”, I don’t hold a grudge or bitterness. I’ll admit my wrong. But then we need the habit of reconnecting with new, explosive, fiery, furious intimacy.
I NEED that heart-mate who welcomes a gift of the heart. One who will love both the flower I bring, and the necklace I slip around her neck. That angel will be one who chooses to “say” thanks, sometimes without words.
You’ll see my willingness to search for you over 5000 miles. I meant 10k. But the system only accepts up to 5k. Nothing is more important than getting to you. If needed I will move to your town. I want you that much, and need you to want me just as much. (So if you tell me I'm too far away, it's a polite rejection.)
Finally, in my book, values, experience, character, work, integrity and faith are tops. Formal education, money and "things" are wonderful, when they build those qualities.
Meet single man from California, United States. I am a fairly simple person with simple ideas that live in a very real world. I live half my life in the mountains and the other half at the beach. Looking for someone that is content with who they are and love to be active both in the snow and on the beach. Not a game player, don't hang out in bars, stay active on a daily basis, own my own business which allows me to be anywhere at any time, play tennis 5-10 times per week, love the snow and the mountains, very comfortable with who I am and looking for "one" person that would be ok with living this dream life.
Date single man from Corona del Mar, United States. I am outgoing, successful, happy, and intelligent man who is looking for someone special to share my life with. In my early years, I was a So Cal beach lifeguard and ski instructor in Sun Valley. I exercise 7 days a week and actively enjoy all things outdoors. I have been known to host great pool parties... the salt water is 90 degrees and beckoning your call.
Life is too short to be wasted, and I have been fortunate to have had an incredible life, thus far. I love to entertain, so a perfect evening can be spent cooking for each other at home, or hosting dinner and enjoying great wine with friends. I am looking for someone to get to know and let know me. I have dear friends from childhood and still see my Mom reguarly. I have heard that friendship is a gift is a gift ourselves, and I feel that way upon relationships on all levels.
Meet a man from Corona del Mar, United States. Match is a new experience for me... For those lovely ladies out there that are thinking..."He's separated ..not quite divorced yet...don't want to waste my time" etc....should be think'in " hey I could be missing out on the catch of my life if I pass him up!" Married 34 years, I'm not a player, I want to spend the rest of my life with one woman...would that be you? I'm so ready to move on and looking forward to the best part of my life's journey. It seems like forever since I've dated and I can't wait to meet the lady I would love to spend the rest of my life with, and her with me. I've been blessed with a wonderful family, good health, love to laugh, great job, and a warm adventurous heart...just ask my kids! I live at the beach and enjoy so many things the coast has to offer. It's so calming to sit and watch the boats cruise into the harbor while the sun is setting. Of course there are beautiful sunsets all over the world and so much more to see and experience .....do you like to travel? Do you like to get all "prettied up" to go out on special occasions, or throw on some jeans when you just want to hang out? I do. I've worn formal wear to flip flops and enjoy big events or just a good movie. To me, the simple pleasures in life are spending time with family and friends, dining in or out, surfing, playing some golf, going to the gym, wine tasting, the warmth and sound of crackling wood in a fireplace, traveling..... or just cuddling up on the couch to share how our day went with my partner and best friend. I am ready to try new things, so if you're passionate about something you enjoy, can I come along? I hope I've said enough to get your interest, but hopefully not so much I've gaged you :-) Let's talk!

Meet someone special from California, United States. I look for women who are careful to look their best, are gracious, witty, love life and enjoy a close relationship. I, inturn am very dovoted to my close friends and consider my self a fun person to be with. life is an adventure and those who think the same way are attractive to me. I enjoy a person who is not scared to try new ideas or experiences, such as food or cooking. I like someone who will take off her shoes and venture out into water or who will take a late night dip in the pool sans clothes because it is daring. I don't carry around baggage that I want to dump on someone else and I look for someone like me in that regard. A mature woman is delighful, a troubled woman who questions everything or looks for a motive is a boar. I enjoy an upbeat life where everyone has the ability to see the good in their lives, their glass is always close to full. Women who smile and light up the room are a joy to be with. As Aunti Mame said in the play: Life is a banquet and most poor fools are starving!

Meet people from California, United States. I'm open, honest, caring, fun loving, willing to try new things, enjoy a good laugh and I've been blessed with a good sence of humor. I'm the proverbial optimist because I always see the glass half full never half empty. I'm an adventurer at heart and enjoy traveling and explore new and interesting destinations. I'm a life long skier, but I much prefer a warmer climate these days and if there happens to be a golf course around , so much the better. I'm comfortable in any setting weather it's in jeans or at black tie formal evening. I enjoy the finer things in life but I'm equally happy just being together at home.
Family plays an important part in my life, but they all understand that we have our own lives to live. I've been self employed most of my working career and now I'm semi retired and enjoying all the benefits of having the freedom to focus on the things I enjoy.
I laugh easily, have a quick wit and I don't take myself to seriously. I know how to have fun and enjoy life fully, while at the same time staying grounded.
I am always a gentlemen and a little old fashion, because I'll still open your car door, hold your chair while you're seated or offer you my coat if you're cold. I'm also a bit of a romantic because I like to show affection openly weather it's holding your hand, putting my arms around you or maybe even kissing you in public and I still send flower for no other reason than to let you know I'm thinking about you. I'm looking for a best friend, someone I can adore completely, idolize totally and love beyond limits.

Meet someone special from California, United States. Wouldn't it be more fun to walk down to The Bungalow or Bayside where we can have a martini and chat in person? Of course it would, but in the meantime, here's a thumbnail sketch: I believe I'm someone you can depend on, a good listener, caring, forthright and principled... a happy camper and a good sport.
Some of the things I enjoy are spontaneity, dinner out on the spur of the moment, flying off for a weekend get-away, live music (especially the Blues) driving off somewhere to spend a casual day together, etc. Cooking is a hobby of mine and I love to share projects in the kitchen. I workout five or six days a week and enjoy walking or riding my bike in the hills around my home or jogging/walking on the sand. I'm also an automobile buff and enjoy racing/club events.
I'm someone who enjoys my work very much and have worked very hard to build my business. I am now able to work in a more flexible manner which allows me to spend time family and friends and pursue activities of interest. I'm definitely happiest when I'm making someone else happy or enjoying a pleasant event with someone I love or care for. We've got to be turned-on and tuned-in to one another.
My "match" might be someone fun-loving, romantic, affectionate, creative, insightful, intelligent, with a wonderful sense of the ridiculous. Down-to-earth, book-smarts street-smarts. Liking oneself and one's work is important too. She's a woman who is respected by her friends and family.
I'd like to meet someone who enjoys good food, wine and cooking. Especially cooking with me as part of our romantic time together. I would also like to spend time in active pursuits, fitness, sports, etc. with you. Points scored for having time to go out a couple of times a week and enjoy long weekends away now and then. Like me, she will be emotionally stable, physically fit and financially secure. I'd prefer to meet a woman who is politically conservative. Thank you for reading my profile! PS: Unfortunately, I'm allergic to cats.
