Date a man from Grass Valley, United States. I work hard for what I have and these days it gets harder all the time. I'm not looking for Angelina Jolie, because I'm not Brad Pitt, but I try to take care of myself and looking for someone who does the same, I guess, who knows?
I try and do the right thing because kharma seems to be real,and treating people the way you want to be treated I've learned can go a long way.
I could go on and on,but whatever I say,nothing can beat talking to one another, so give me a try .I have a house in Grass Valley,but mostly I'm in the bay area where I work.
Meet people from California, United States. Thank you for checking out my profile. I am seeking a committed, romantic relationship with a woman of similar interests and matching personality. Describing oneself is not a simple task as we are all multifaceted people with personality characteristics that often depend on the situation and circumstances. However, some of my more consistent characteristics are: soft-spoken, kind and considerate, gentle in spirit and attitude (although I do get passionate about some social issues), an open and honest communicator, very inquisitive, trustworthy and trusting, and affectionate. Let's see - did I leave any good qualities out? Oh yeah, and I'm rich - with playfulness. I'll try and find the humor in almost anything and will get downright silly at times. I hope to never lose that.
Some of my favorite activities are: going to new places to kayak (I have an extra one for you), getting out of town for weekend getaways, going to outdoor concerts (and dance when possible), preferably blues or jazz fusion but I still like some of the classic rockers (although some of them should really retire); street fairs, movies, bookstores, wineries, biking, tennis, softball, family activities, and traveling to distant places. I'm open to trying anything new and sharing your excitement over something you enjoy. I certainly enjoy the quiet times as well, cozying up together to read, watch a DVD or my favorite comedy shows (Daily Show, Colbert Report, reruns of Frazier, but not much more TV than that), or just surfing on the Internet for things to learn about and share. I even enjoy shopping (within limits of course), holding hands as we view our culture's latest retail offerings. One thing I don't do is sit around and watch sports on TV. I'd rather play it than watch it. After a hard week of work I like to turn up my music and kick up my heels to my favorites - Mark Knopfler, Robben Ford, Lee Ritenour, and Special EFX. Otherwise you'll usually hear soft acoustical guitar or piano music playing in the background. I workout at the gym regularly and try to eat only healthy food. And though I don't have any right now, I love and enjoy the company of friendly dogs and cats.
I'm looking for someone who has a natural type of beauty who doesn't feel the need to spend excessive time fixing herself up to go out (unless it's a special event). Your beauty shines through an easy and quick smile and you laugh easily (especially at my jokes). You enjoy being touched to maintain the connectedness of being together and appreciate being sincerely listened to when sharing your thoughts and feelings. You listen well yourself and share my inquisitiveness about life and each other. Being on the slim, athletic side myself, I prefer someone of similar size, so keeping fit and exercising is important to you (and we know how hard that is after reaching middle age - or am I beyond that now?).
Obviously there is much more to share, but if there is anything I've written here that peaks your interest (and doesn't sound too hokey), let me know by sending an email and let’s see where it goes. If not, best of luck in your pursuit of love and companionship.
Date a man from California, United States. I am a healthy active person who enjoys the outdoors. Also like decorating my houses. I like the mountains and the ocean equally. I have traveled alot and would like to revisit some of the special places with an affectionate and romantic lady. Love Hawaii anytime. Looking forward to visiting other warm tropical places. My ideal partner would be someone who gives back equally and tells me she cares with a simple look or phone call. I tend to like women who take care of themselves and are spontanious about hopping in the car and going for a ride a meal. Initial chemistry is crucial starting with a look at your picture and receiving an intimate e-mail inviting me to respond. I am a fairly neat person around the house and like that in a lady.
Please make sure your pictures are current, mine are.
Now ladies please be honest about your age.
Meet single man from California, United States. OK! I am really awful at social media. I sent my first text this week. I like to see the humor in things like my social awkwardness. This is so much fun.sarcasm.
OK now is the time to be serious. My ideal person is smart that qualifies 80% of you from the profiles I have read. She must have a good sense of humor. Aritculate that goes without saying. I guess cultured would be a requirement, no Mickey that doesn't mean eating a lot of yogurt. JOKE, SORRY, I can't help myself.
The ladies at work tell me, "you are really funny!"
My friends tell me that I am bright articulate and intelligent and they should know, because they are to.
My friends say that I am excellent conversationalist. We will have to talk to them about that!
I have good taste in food and wine, don't we all. I also like to cook .I love Mozart lots of Classical all kind of Jazz especially Jazz fusion and soft Jazz. I have a deep rock and roll collection of stuff you never have heard.
looking for an independent woman who thinks for herself. Enjoying the journey is the most important thing and with some special it will be that much more enjoyable.
I like all kinds of movies: older comedies and old or new romantic comedies they are much more intellegent then the awful stuff made for guys. I may be 60, but I still run a mean chainsaw. I live in a forrest by a golf course.
I would like to say that I am intelligent, but that might make me seem less than humble?
I am especially interested in Gold country ladies.
Thanks for reading.

Date a man from United States. I'm a social services professional who is recently retired. What am I? Depends on who you talk to--some say funny, smart, caring and devoted to discovering the positives in life, people, environment. I do easily accept constructive criticism when I "go over the edge" in my opinions. I'm an ENFP in temperment and typically my best friends are either SP's or NT's. Have been certified as an Advanced Trainer in Nurtured Heart Approach.
I've been single several years and am "comfortable in my own skin". I am certainly discriminating about who I will let into my life--better to have a few truly great friends than many acquaintances. Try not to panic about my marital status--it's only about helping with medical insurance.
Children, puppies and kittens invariably have me laughing and melting inside.
I am most proud of my children, my professional accomplishments and skill on the slopes (as long as my knees last!).
Ladies, I am looking for the moment I first see you and the universe stops for a second. After that, the first touch, the first embrace, the first time your scent fills my head and leaves it reeling....ah, the intoxication of you! First kisses, dances, laughs--I want it again just as you do.
Now, a word or two about this online meeting arena--seems to me that there are no easy paths to finding Ms. Right. As always, we have to play a game of numbers; meeting many who are good people but don't "strike the spark". And, it's tough when we have only a few pictures and words to go by; unfortunately, communication is only about seven percent words and the rest is all nuance, tone, body language, etc.
That being said, I don't typically respond to winks; if you have some interest in me please take the time to say a few words in an e-mail. If I have a mutual interest in you we will move forward to more discussion and a potential face-to-face. Then we can both discover whether the pheromones match up ;-) and we go forward to defining the relationship or just simply have a nice chat and then say good-by. Really, this can be a low risk, high reward endeavor.
Meet a man from California, United States. I am a gentleman with a great sense of humor. I am an avid flyfisherman, and I often find myself in exotic tropical places chasing fish.
I am taking up golf again, after not playing for quite a while.
I like taking road trips to unexplored places in the West. Last year I took a 32 day solo road trip through the west, fishing and exploring every day. 9,700 miles, and I never used the radio.
I love to dance and dine out. I am also an excellent BBQist. (coals, no gas).
Jazz is my music of choice. Next, blues. my son is a DJ, he plays "house" electronica, It's hot. I appreciate good art, and have done a bit of sculpting myself, as you can see by one of my pics.
I am also a romantic. Giving is as good as receiving.
I have 2 kids. My son is 26, and my daughter is 21. They both live away.
I have been in the Navy, trained porpoises, been a Porsche mechanic, drove big rigs, owned a newspaper in Colorado, and owned a fly fishing store. I am currently a general contractor.
It would be nice to find someone to share some quality time with, and possible intimacy. Someone who is interested in the same things I am. Like everyone else says, I love the beach, (being an old surf bum from Santa Barbara County. I also am at ease around any H2O.
What I would like in a lady is Someone who likes "lookin' good" but doesn't mind Levis and a flannel shirt, or a little dirt under her nails. Liking the outdoors is a must.
The girl in the black dress is my daughter, Rachel.
One final note. I discontinued drinking, it was getting in my way. I'm fine in social situations, no big deal.
I am also in the process of quitting smoking cigars. That is why that box is not used.
I know I might be a dreamer, but I think you are out there.
Date a soulmate from United States. I like to think of myself as a Godly person, attend church regularly & help/encourage others. Was married for 24 yrs then met last wife at church. Married for 4 yrs before her untimely death. Enjoy working in yard, fixin' stuff around house, attend-ing social functions, cooking for that special some-one (I can also be great sous-chef). Not a sea food eater but love staying at the ocean. Very hot blooded, passionate, huggy type guy. Enjoy giving & receiving a little touch and also holding hands. Believe both people in a relationship should be whole & self sufficient and come together as one. I tend to be a bit witty as my brain is on 24/7. Communication & expressing yourself is very important to me. Being honest & truthful is part of me. Relationalships take time & trust so Let's walk & talk together.
Meet single man from United States. I've retired from my first career, and now turning my attention to my passions. I enjoy hiking, kayaking, wilderness adventure, and cultural diversity. Would like to travel the world. I'm not a fashion snob, and am frugal. I look for a fit, adventurous, but responsible companion who shares similar interests and passions, who knows that quality is not always determined by brand name or price, and does not need to be showered with extravagant gifts.
