Date a soulmate from California, United States. I value my family and good friends and you do too. I am fairly independent, but love companionship for activities.
You have respect for nature, like to travel, and are willing to share your time. You can tolerate a little silliness once in a while, but are sincere and straightforward.
My favorite piece of clothing is my blue jeans.
I prefer a nice meal planned around some exercise, a walk or bike ride and I love "meeting for coffee" and like to support the neighborhood coffee houses. I like to cook and try new recipes once in a while with interesting ingredients.
I like the courtesies and traditions we grew up with such as the gentleman opens the doors for the lady, pulls out her chair at a restaurant, offers his jacket when she is cold, Never swears in front of her, etc. If you're my age, you probably remember these.
I try to live by this motto: Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
Meet someone special from California, United States. Who I Am: I've been widowed for 6 yrs after being married for 30 yrs. and it's time to find a gentleman to share my time and affection with again.
Born and raised in San Francisco, I'm very glad I live in the Bay Area.
I love to laugh and make others laugh with me. I also enjoy the company of close friends but more importantly my family. We spend lots of quality time together playing games and vacationing. Because I enjoy all types of music and performing arts, you'll find me on the dance floor and/or singing my heart out. To me age is just a number, I look and act much younger than that number. My favorite spots typically have a great beach.. ie Maui, Cabo or a little closer to home, Santa Cruz or Half Moon Bay. I enjoy getting out on the water in a power or sail boat. I am very qualified to be a good "first mate". I am a qualified co-pilot as well. Love to fly!There really isn't much I wouldn't try at least once!
There are many other things I enjoy, and I'm always willing to try new things. My idea of camping is being on the first floor of the Hilton Hotel, ha ha! But perhaps I would be willing to try camping again (in comfort) ..I am a great companion, a good listener and friend, and I like to do the things that my companion enjoys as well. I'll play golf, bowl, tend to the garden, cook, ride..(love old auto's), wine tasting, target shoot, take walks, fish, day/weekend trips, picnic, photography, gamble a bit in Reno, Vegas, Tahoe.
I am semi retired now working at See's during busy seasons, and have plenty of time to volunteer in my community and travel in my free time. Enough about me..... you can email me for more details.
Who You Are: A family-oriented gentleman with a great sense of humor, kind heart, a bit romantic (or more), who dresses for the occasion and goes with the flow. One who likes traveling and shows a sense of spontaneity. A man who likes outdoor sports and who can watch sports indoors(football) with me. Are you a 49er fan??
Bottom line, I am down to earth and would like to have an honest, confident, trustworthy person to enter my life, be my friend, and share special times and make new memories with. Could that be you? If you think we have something(s) in common, or would like to chat to find out more....please send me an email.
