Date men from United States / California / El Cerrito - page 4

Date single man from California, United States. I am a man of many interests. At this point in my life with all of my learning and experiences, I firmly believe that Love is one of the primary purposes in life.
I consider myself to have a sensitive heart. Yet I have been given a strong and healthy mental and physical body, which I increasingly honor with time.
I believe in focusing on a future filled with the potential for growth and transformation, which are two essential dimensions
of the natural order of things.
I offer a mind state gounded in respect, emotional reciproicity with the objective being the genuine sharing of feelings, opinions, and desires.
My hope woould been that we co-create a safe and comfortable space in which to come together in a meaningful and mutually nurturing fashion with happiness and well being as our guides.
and within the bosom of that loving togetherness is value and respect for a space for independence.

Meet someone special from El Cerrito, United States. I'm retired, relaxed, and accepting of differences. Looking for someone to share a good sense of humor - very important! Prefer someone creative, involved in the community. I do volunteer work teaching seniors and retirees photography.

Date single man from El Cerrito, United States. OK, now I want an I phone. Saw the ad. I could ask my Iphone what my day looked like, and it could say "Another busy day today Karen!". Cool. My name's not Karen, but more than my phone does. It's like a baby before it starts to talk. Good at phone calls though.
Looking for unusual, genuine, smart, elegant, adventuresome and attractive. Why not shoot high? Improbable unpredictable chemistry? The Sierra high route (loved the book). Sailing. Travel, Asia. Reading. Music. Probably in reverse order. Irreverence. Economics. Education. Walking out the door and thinking "that's so amazing, and right outside".
I’ve had a lot of variety in my life. I went to Antioch and Hunter College (CCNY), SF State, was a programmer back in the day. worked on a drill rig on an island off the coast of British Columbia, traveled and moved around a lot when I was younger. Traveled less after I had kids, more in the future. Bhutan? Did of other things. I have been an entrepreneur and investor (on one scale or another, not so good at working for other's) much of my working life; now I am financially secure and semi-retired, or enjoying work more, or something.
Often found in jeans. Tend not to be categorized in match categories very well. Yoshi's, bluegrass, blues, rock, symphony etc. I like good restaurants. I like socializing and parties, but kind of low key about it. I’m happy with my life and I don’t get upset about things. I'm really fortunate in having great kids with whom I have close friendships. I have practiced zen meditation since I was 18, in a relaxed fashion, but am genetically an Irish Catholic. My friend Greg just got transmitted. References upon request. I'm low maintenance but would love to have the company of a charming and intellectually vibrant woman. So, glass of wine after work, cup of coffee during the day or whatever? Take a look? I remember fondly when I was young, and love would happen spontaneously, just walking around. The invention of the microwave was a wonderful thing, but in some other ways I long for the simpler world of my youth. Those days are gone, but life keeps getting richer and more fun. Mostly want to fall in love (I know, but I still do).
Casual, well educated and thoughtful. Academic interests, but not employed as an academic. I live in the woods surrounded by park. 20,000 acre back yard. Anyway, we all can get up each day, look around, and say "ah, another day in paradise". Phone disclosure; I'm not into at chatting on the phone unless it's work. Let's email or, better, chat over a cup or glass of something. Damn, it's hard to get this stuff into the little wire that goes between my computer & yours.
Love to talk to you. Hey they need more choices, or better yet, let us fill in our own answers. Their lists of choices leave something to be desired. Also we need lots more room for books read. Life? What's up on this planet? Makes me consider checking out facebook, but not so far.

Date a soulmate from United States. I am easy going and generous, but sometimes intense; young at heart, open-minded, and non-judgmental, but have clear preferences. Clean and neat. Vegetarian, color-blind, and funny. Would like to start with friendship and see how that develops. I would like to spend time with people who share my core values (see above) and who don't want to change me, but are willing to educate me. I am happy to hear your story but don't like complaining; and no sarcasm or passive aggressiveness. Let's be open and honest even when it's painful; and be gentle and considerate during difficult times. Life is a challenge and to have a friend or companion, a relationship where I feel safe and at ease is of great value. Thanks.

Meet single man from United States. My Mom & Dad were from central Maine & Boston, beginning their marriage & family in the teeth of the great depression, so my 3 sisters & I were instilled with a stern moral grounding & the old New England addage "Use it up, wear it out, make do, do without." Onerous as it seemed at times, it gave us a really strong foundation.
Fortunately, fun was not ruled out & we were truly "free range kids" prowling barefoot through the neighborhood from right after breakfast until the fireflies came out. Roller skates came next, increasing our range by a few blocks and when we moved up to bicycles we ranged from one end to the other of our small Ohio town & a bit into the countryside. This boyhood experience left me with an outgoing & pragmatic nature.
A move to the big-time city of Philadelphia coincided with High School and brought about an outward layer of toughness & sophistication. Don't know quite how, but we survived puberty: teen angst, fitting in or even being popular, passion & pimples--whew!
Along came college & my sisters thrived, while I did the Black Sheep thing, never finishing. I fumbled through my twenties, gravitating to the automotive industry with a brief stint at an oil company, two different auto dealerships & then, beginning in 1976, my own auto parts store. We went through early gowing pains but came on strong, adding a machine shop & earning a decent living. In 1997 my primary supplier made me a buyout offer I couldn't refuse & I became a Realtor, joining my wife's existing business.
Ah yes, my wife, Lela. On a Friday night in May of 1968 at a singles bar just outside of Princeton, N.J. there was one empty seat at the bar & it was next to me & she sat down. Thus the fire was lit & she kept the pot boiling as we dated through that summer, toting our toothbrushes back & forth from her place in Griggstown to mine in Skillman. On October 14th we got practical and merged operations into the Skillman venue, mainly because it was up on a hill with a nice view. She was recently divorced at the time & convinced that marriage was a terrible idea to be avoided at all costs. So we didn't get hitched until Jan 25, 1969. She felt an even worse idea would be for her to have a second child (I had become an instant father), so our son didn't arrive for a couple more years.
Although that fire still burned & the pot was still boiling, sometimes it would simply simmer, while at others it would flare up & boil over. We decided a change of scenery & a little adventure sounded good, so in 1970 we quit our jobs & headed for California, settling in the East Bay. As many couples do, we worked through many practical issues, including division of labor & now I am competent & reliable domestically, shouldering all of the budren in shopping, laundry, banking & bill pay, recycling & waste management, & major portions of cooking & cleaning. But alas, my beloved passed away suddenly & unexpectedly in August 2010, leaving a gaping hole in my heart. Of course it staggered me, but the worst of it is in the rearview & I am ready to start anew. Sorry for babbling on, but I figured you deserve to know who I am & how I got where I am today.
For the last two years I've been working towards installing solar panels & finally got it done in November. Then on the very last day of 2010 I took delivery of a brand new Chevy Volt (plug-in hybrid). Sorry, but I'm feeling a little smug as I tool around town gasoline free, powered by the sun. Zzzzaaaappp!
Now I need someone to entertain, comfort, console, amuse, inform, adore & hug while she does much the same for me.
