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

Date people from United States. I have a gentle and outgoing personality, an extrovert who loves people and seeing the good in them. I am a licensed private investigator with my own firm and while I work, my time and scheduling lets me devote plenty of time to the relationship I want. I want to find a great partner with whom to spend time and see whether that relationship could and would be lifelong. I am also a permanent optimist with a 3/4 full glass, one who believes that the unexamined life is worth living but is boring. So I live looking, learning, sometimes being "out of the box", and having a pretty neat existence. I know that I am blessed to have a wonderful life, great friends and a wonderful family. But, that being said, I know that if one can do it well, two can do it far better, and so I ask: Where is that woman that's the perfect missing rib of mine?
The relationship that I am looking to cook is one based on :
4 cups honesty
4 cups trust
4 heaping cups respect
2 large hearts
2-3/4 cups of humor (self-deprecating or regular)
1 tbs. ginger ( I just threw that in for spice.)
And speaking of spice, well you know the other good ingredient.
All of the above, cooked slowly and lovingly, with an appreciation of the other person, and served happily with candlelight.
I have a lot to bring to a good relationship, and I know that good relationships take work, great relationships take even more work, but I also know that bringing love to that work, it makes it much easier, and VOILA! maybe one day you then have a world class relationship.
I invite anyone that wants to know more to write.

Meet a man from United States. I live in Irvine,in Southern California, and I enjoy meeting people, social conversation and have a gentle and most outgoing personality. I work a bunch but try to make time for relaxing. I enjoy travelling, photography, good music, live theatre and lively conversation with interesting people. My kids are back east, I am a New Yorker by birth, and some say that I still carry some of that flavor even today. I believe the right companion makes downtime so much more enjoyable. I also believe that we are given a life which is very simple to live but somehow sometimes we manage to complicate it. Hmmmmm!!!!
I am looking for a quality long-term relationship. I would like to find a lady with a good sense of humor (self-deprecating or not), one who has found herself, and understands that life is precious and should be enjoyed. One can do it - two can do it better.
Linda Goodman wrote a book a long time ago called "Linda Goodman's Sun Signs". If you look under Pisces, very, very, very carefully you might see my picture(lol).

Date someone special from Irvine, United States. Yes! That headline is my motto! There are people "old" at 50 and "young" at "67"...like me! So, whatever your age, for me it's
what's "inside," not just the externals! It's how you feel, think and believe that truly counts and defines your "age." With that said, and IF those words truly resonate with you, then, I hope you'll read on. These words describe just a little of me: warm and affectionate, creative, outgoing, easy on the eyes, sweet, direct, a good communicator, open, spiritual, holistic, an animal lover especially cats....your all around, balanced woman! I think of myself as a woman of substance, a deep thinker yet one who is playful and certainly looks at the cup half full. I can easily enjoy my own time alone as well as enjoying socializing with friends and family. Yes, happiness does come from within, BUT, sharing with your soul sweetie... all the better! So, I must say that if politically you are a Republican, if you don't like animals and enjoy "hunting," if you are against "pro-choice" values, then we just won't be compatible. Partnership to me is about enriching each other to make life sweeter, fuller and more expansive. In that regard, the more commonalities we have, the better. My "liberal" views of life are definitely of the social and more than likely political nature; my views on finances, however, tend to be more conservative in thinking. I also want to stress that your "age" to me is just a number! And, as I mentioned above, if you are somewhat younger than me, remember for this creative lady, it's what's inside you and how you perceive life that sings forth!!! So, truly, it's that "soul spirit," the person within that makes me, "me." Even though my birth certificate says 1943, I am the epitome of being young at heart. I love doing lots of things.....from just hanging out with my love or watching videos at home with him, to attempting to play golf (!)....can you help (?), to visiting an art gallery or museum, to getting together with another couple, to strolling on the beach, to reading....and more! Whatever we do as a couple...great; whatever we each like to do on our own...great too! Life, love, etc. is all about "balance" and appreciating our time here. Hope this piques your interest, special one! I want to meet you, have fun with you and grow together!
