Date men and women from United States / California / Elk Grove, 68 year old

Date men and women from Elk Grove, United States. Hello, just added a few pics taken in July 2012, other pics are no older than 12 months unless otherwise noted.
GOALS on Match: to meet a lady for a committed exclusive partner relationship
PAST: Grew up in NYC, moved to S.F in the late 60's, married but divorced and still friends. Two great adult " kids". Brian finishing his English Literature PH.D thesis and Lisa married - Advertising exec with a two year old son. I worked in Corporate management for many years, launched my own management consulting practice, did a consulting tour with IBM, then retired three years ago. Taught MBA classes but not an egghead.
WHAT I LIKE: First the companionship and affection of a good woman. Nothing beat that. I Love dogs, but none now. Spent most of my adult life as a competitive power-lifter so fitness is still an important priority in my lifestyle. Love music, writing, playing guitar, had bands for many years, and play / enjoy jazz, blues, standards, classic rock, rockabilly, country, surf, and oldies. Lived in Elk Grove / Sacramento since 1990. Good TV, movies, taking walks, bicycling, conversation, day trips, a drive in the country, and just being with a special lady ..that alone irrespective of any activity tops my list.
MY TEMPERAMENT ..sociable, friendly, thinker, honest, intense, mercurial, fun-loving but serious, good listener, fair-minded, dependable, and loyal and would seek similar qualities in a life-partner. Very transparent and friends regard me as a good communicator. I am a one-woman guy seeking an exclusive relationship. Intimacy at all levels counts but friendship is paramount.
PRESENT: Very much enjoy being retired ... not always on the go nor a couch potato. Just getting back into sports cars, staying fit at the gym, and hoping to assemble another band ...really miss music and performing. I do an occasional political blog and tilt toward being a conservative but the orientation of my dream-lady is unimportant ..no litmus test here. Presently looking to buy a sports car as a mishap ( well, a crash ) this past April ended a 50 year romance with motorcycling ....I am fine but my Ninja was toast. I suppose at age 68 it was time to let it go.
FUTURE / LADY I SEEK: Qualities listed above, a woman who is gentle, honest, caring, generous spirit. Has time for and wants a man in her life. I prefer slender ladies who are fit as that has been a personal constant for me through the years. As such I appreciate recent photos and pics ( not just head / portrait shots ) that validate a slender fitness lifestyle. I am open to moving / relocating, would like to get another dog ..had rotties but perhaps just a lab-mix rescue dog. Friendship first, then intimacy. Walks, movies, coffee, good TV, just hanging out and pretty open to activities that would please my partner.
You can ask me anything and always expect an honest and straight-forward answer. No hidden agendas.

Date a soulmate from Elk Grove, United States. I am from Russia with love. I'd like to have a friend to share time doing fun things together. We could go to movies, lunch, dinners, walks, local events, take drives or do nothing but rent a movie from Redbox.
I have been in this country fourteen years, have a steady job working with special education students. I have many friends, but they are married and I'd like to have someone to share my life with as well.
On week-ends I like to putter in my backyard by gardening or bringing in what I've grown and sharing with others. I am a handyman and enjoy the outdoors and take pride in my work.
Every Saturday I do water arobics and yoga at 24 hours fitness for feeling better. I have time to share with that special someone, but haven't found a way to meet you. Hence, match.com!
It would be nice to meet a woman who is mild mannered, calm, loyal, is respectable of my values and I would do the same in return. I would love it if you were a super model, but at my age I am smart to know that it's who you are on the inside that is important to me. Can't wait to hear from you and don't be shy as I am worth your time. Sincerely, Andriy

Meet people from California, United States. Taking life one day at a time and enjoying what's in it. I enjoy people of various cultures and nationalities--am always happy to learn new ways of looking at life. I have had a fortunate, sophisticated background in many ways, with much education and a lot of wonderful travel; and now I live simply and don't count up "things." I'm pretty happy about that. I'm a non-denominational spiritual person and believe in prayer and God and in growing my faith. I want to be with someone who can gently laugh at himself, treats himself and others well, loves to learn, practices a form of prayer (whatever that is for him), and is pretty intuitive. It helps if he can ask genuine questions while getting to know me, since I tend not to talk about myself unless i know someone wants to hear; I'm a very good listener as a result. I'm looking for friendship first, not a sudden electrifying bolt of lightening (been there, done that). Going back to what I said I wanted in someone-----I don't really have a grocery list of what someone should be like, and I hope you don't either----I think maybe we all get disappointed as we think maybe we can tick off all the characteristics on our list and find the perfect person. It's not like that. We're people, not lists. One falls in love and then believes the person is perfect the way they are--maybe not the way one wants them to be.

Meet men and women from United States. From the Ballet to Hiking. . .The light of my life is shining to let you know I have a zest for living life to its fullest; dream to share new adventures with a special gentleman in a significant, funfilled relationship creating Love, Joy and Happiness in a low maintenance relationship and getting to know one another on an emotional level, with appreciation of quiet times together.
Have enjoyed my office work in the medical field. . .at least most of the time. Various interests include theater, picnic, casual or "fine" dining with a "quality" wine; concerts, museums, antiques, photography, exercise, dance, nature, and other interests I have yet to explore. It would be much more meaningful with that "special" guy.
Although I have no children of my own, I enjoy sponsoring a child in Brazil, support to childrens' organizations, and enlightening the life of children within my neighborhood community.
Am somewhat old-fashioned, as I appreciate a guy who opens the doors and treats a "petite, poised, polite, and feminine" lady like a lady - - a True and Romantic gentleman. It brings joy to me showing what "Random Acts of Kindness" brings to others as well as to myself.
I'm home-grown in the Golden State of California; being close to the beauty of the ocean and mountains is a real treat; a goal would be to meet a gentleman interested in travel to historical areas (near or far) of interest, enjoying the sites, and building some lasting memories.
Mainly wish to share life's many simple pleasures in a healthy and fun-loving relationship where we can't wait to see each other again -- my soul mate. Is that you? Let's talk!
