Date men and women from United States / California / Garden Grove, 41 year old

Date single man from Garden Grove, United States. Hmmm... Let's see... first of all take a DEEP BREATH... relax and get ready to read everything, step back, and then maybe glance over this little bit of "me" in print again. Not a thesis paper written here, just a lil bit, just a sample, a sliver. Invite yourself to wonder who it is to be this guy? And would I like to have a conversation with him? Think about it. Enjoy!
I like complex people who like to keep things simple. They have great ideas, but don't need their guy to be entertainment, but actually want a relationship based on among other things actually getting to know each other. So expression is something I notice. Whether it's how you tilt you head when you're absorbed with curiosity, place hands on your hips and fixate you eyes when you say think "What?!" or whatever quirky non-verbal expressions you make and word choices you make I'm going to be paying attention. Count on it. I can see what you look like on the outside, but I'll be checkin' everything else out about your mentality and where you're commin' from like some are checkin' how you look in your jeans. I want to check out my wife's jeans, but hey I don't have one of those, so right now I need to check out who you are. Got it? Don't be afraid to ask questions you know. ;)
I love love love to read and share ideas. I was a teacher for 7 years, and I love the whole sense of being a life time learner, and with my faith, omgoodness, as I write this I know I have so much to learn. Faith is humbling. Not that you are confused, but sometimes I forget that in the business of knowing what is what I'm not actually God. Life surprises surely. Go figure. Humility. God uses it. I know. :)
I'm a dad and I totally love my babies, translation children two daughters 13 and 11 and a son 14. My babies, most wonderful children live with me during the week and with their momma on the weekends. Momma and me are cool, and dare I say she'd hope to be good friends with the woman I marry. If you're a secure woman you should be good.
I don't introduce my children to whom I'm dating, meeting, or whatever you want to call it, unless I were getting to a place were this was significantly more than dating, My goal hears is to only introduce my children to the woman I'll marry. That may not work out, but that is my hope and intent. Need to protect my little people you know.
So I'm looking for someone who's talented with substance, looks pretty cute, fit, maybe tall, and makes me smile when they get mad. Getting mad can be kinda cute. My youngest daughter, when she get's mad I can't but help but smile on the inside.
I tend to be most attracted to women who polarize the world into good and bad, right and wrong, and loyalty vs. betrayal, a woman who has convictions, and is often strong willed. Why? Why don't you guess, it might be fun. Is there more to it, sure, why don't you guess those too! ;) Regardless, whatever I've been drawn to before, I suppose I know my past, perhaps enough that is sufficient for today, but what surprises God will bring tomorrow or even today I can't say.
I don't aspire to date my whole life, but I don't look to "make" something a relationship. I'd like to keep things fairly light for a while, get to know each other in terms of how we relate to our families, deal with conflict, driving in traffic, the stress of life, sharing time, thoughts about familial roles, say, wifey and husband rolls etc. There's a lot to learn and it can be a good time. I mean to make it a good time if Big Papa (God), is up for it. God is good all the time. I may not be, but God, amen, is.
Finally, I am Christian and while I'd be happy to meet anyone, I value in some way everyone, I do expect to find myself equally yolked. Also, to my Catholic friends despite my "divorced" status in this profile the marriage I was in was not recognized by the church. I will be free to marry within the church.

Meet a woman from Garden Grove, United States. I want to meet interesting and intelligent men for friendship and more. I spend most of my time working so I am looking to develop new interests and do new activities. I like knowledgeable people who like to communicate and share what they know.
I am interested in learning more about day trading and financial investments in general. I like to spend time at Barnes Noble reading and drinking coffee when I make free time. I would like to learn how to play piano sometimes in the future and be a good photographer. I'm currently taking some fashion design classes at a local college and love it. I'm also taking a Latin dance class for fun and it is a good way to burn calories and much funner than going to the gym in my opinion.
I wish I can speak these 7 languages (German, French, Spanish, Italian, English, Vietnamese and Chinese). That would be so cool. Currently I only know a bit of German, a few words of French, fluent in Vietnamese and OK with English.
Working, learning and growing is important but I also enjoy staying home, watching television, talking and cooking with friends. I am a warm, passionate and supportive person sometimes with a silly sense of humor. I travel often for my business but rarely have time to enjoy myself. I would like to vacation more often I guess I am just waiting for a reason to go. Going to Italy this August. My traveling wish list would be Australia, Spain, Asia and Eastern Europe.
Current favorite TV shows: The Mentalist, Suits, DWTS, America got talent, Project Runway and Master Chef.
I like most kinds of movies, not so much into horror though.
I am looking for someone to have fun with and try new things. I was told that I have nice smile so if you have a good sense of humor to make me laugh, that would be extra credit. I guess what I am looking for is pretty simple.
