Date a soulmate from Fullerton, United States. Here’s what I want:
You are rest
gentle peace
you are longing
and what calms it.
I dedicate to you
in joy and pain
a dwelling here
in my eyes and heart.
Come to me,
and close
quietly behind you
the gates.
(Friedrich Ruckert, 1822)

I’m 61 (take it or leave it!), but look, feel, and live the life of, a younger man. Highly educated, strong background, promising career, caring parent, lover of music and culture. I am also someone who has experienced a couple of decades of some not-so-comfortable stuff - with family and in career. But recovery can happen, and better lives can be found. I can tell you that with some assurance, as I have experienced it personally. For several years now.
I like pretty much all the standard stuff everyone on Match likes (or claims to): nature, beach, camping, trees, mountains, music, cuddling, travel, romantic evenings, etc. I also have other likes that may be more revealing: canoes, piano (especially Chopin and Liszt), stars and night sky, shoveling snow, building gadgets and gizmos for around the house, old movies, quality time with my daughter, -- ok, that’s enough for now.
I’m looking for friendships first. Time to spend days or evenings together - or perhaps both - discovering favorite places to go and things to do. And then, when it feels right, I’m looking for ... ... (well ... you can just refer to the above). By the way, if you like that poem, I can play it for you- set to music by Schubert and sung by Janet Baker. It’s pretty strong stuff! All you have to do is get to know me.
Meet someone special from Fullerton, United States. I'm a mid-western transplant although I've lived here since high school. I enjoy the water so I go to the beach often. I spent many years in the restaurant business so I learned how to cook. I went back to college to change courses and got an additional degree in a different field and ended up in the contracting/construction business for many years, (OK, no one else would hire me). Now I'm starting a new venture and am in outside sales with a rapidly expanding company new here in California. I love it!!
I stay in good shape and like to bike ride, (Always up for a bike ride on the boardwalk), golf, and snow ski. I also enjoy anything to do with water, swim, dive, boogie board, you name it, I'm there. I've had season tickets for the Civic Light Opera for years. Like to travel and eat out.......well, (who doesn't?), and enjoy spending time with intelligent, worldly, experienced or interesting people. Family is important to me and I spend time with mine. I miss the traveling I did when I was younger and plan to do more in the future.
I recently got duped into a 100 mile Palm Springs bike race by my insane bike riding cousin in February. Hence the photo. Didn't know they have these nearly every weekend all over the country. Just found out a different cousin who owns a kickboxing gym in Seattle takes her clients on the annual Seattle to Portland ride every year. Yikes!

Date someone special from Fullerton, United States. I am passionate about so many things in life, from nature and the environment to politics and education, but I am fanatical about none. I am spiritual, curious and romantic. History holds a huge fascination for me, especially in regards to societal evolution through religion, the arts and politics.Ultimately, I am an extremely creative, playful person that has a strong need for the same. I am no “newbie” to online communication (I am a web master by trade), but very new to dating again - especially online. So please have some patience, this is way out of my comfort zone. That being said…
There are two things that mean the most to me in a relationship and those are honesty and loyalty. I am looking for a best friend and life partner. I want someone who can recognize true value in a person and who is willing to protect that relationship at all cost. Someone I can lose myself in completely and trust to always have my back.
Chemistry is very important, but for me it has to be tied up with substance. There can always be mutual attraction yet without the right qualities to back it up – well you know what happens, it never lasts. So, beyond the right chemistry I am looking for a strong, educated and financially stable man. A man who is perfectly capable of making decisions alone, but would prefer to discuss them with his partner. He is CREATIVE, romantic, sensitive and able to express himself openly. I do not like to do all the talking!! Believe it or not, I want to know what’s in your heart and mind. He is happy to provide a shoulder to lean on, but not afraid to ask for one in return. He is KIND, passionate and willing to think of others - sometimes putting them first. He is a man who is self-aware, maybe full of a “few surprises” and eager to embrace a new beginning with someone who will absolutely adore him!!!
If you think we may be a good “match” please email me and let me know. Until then…
Update 06.18.12 Ok, so the truth is I am a bit high maintenance, but not entirely. I can be happy staying at home doing nothing, but cuddling and watching a good movie. I love to play video games and while fine dining is awesome, a great meal cooked at home can be just as nice. In fact, cooking is an “ART”. I wouldn’t mind being with a talented chef at all, but eating healthy is important to me. Doesn’t mean I won’t splurge on a special occasion though. :)
