Date a man from California, United States. I am a PLAYFUL man who likes to laugh, tell funny stories about a “rich life” fully lived. I can be effervescent and love kidding in a fun way and develop rapport easily and express myself whimsically, I love to kibitz to borrow an old Judaic term.yet I am "a world class listener" and really give a damn about what people are saying to me, especially my mate.
I develop rapport easily, as well as being quickly comfortable to be with.I love life and life loves me back
Throughout my life, I have been endearingly referred to as
"A Character", fun, happy go lucky man.. I am proud to say that I am also seen as a "Man of Character."
I am capable of deep love and affection and I seek a dear friend, a soul mate, an advisor, a companion, a confidant and playmate who shares my love for passionate kissing, lovemaking both tender and wild. Ultimatelly someone to share the many years I have left on this earth. My family history is one where they live into their 90;’s. My mother is 94 and is still sharp and equally as impatient. I really appreciate a woman of character who has lived life fully, especially those “who have pulled themselves up from "their own heelstraps.”
I am a romantic, easily express my affection, a peck on the cheek when least expecting it, talking about everything under the sun, going for walks, holding hands, giving flowers or a present for no reason other than the way I feel about her.
My late wife referred to me as "Her Hero" long before she became ill and that always made me feel so warm inside.
A friend asked me why she called me that and I responded:
"Bob, when a woman you dearly love calls you her hero, you just take it in, embrace it, and thank God that you can be that to someone you adore with all of your heart."
I am single as a result of the passing of my wife of 5 years from cancer. She has been gone 6 years and I really have only been active in dating for aobut 3 years now.
In my mind, I am ageless most ,importantly in attitude, I am healthy and young both inside as well as in physiche, and outer appearance,
I am deeply spiritual but do not buy into the dogma of organized religion. I see each of us individualized souls each on a different path, each worthy of knowing God in their own personal way.
I have been CEO or President of 3 Mortgage Investment Firms, one of which was 7th largest in nation, I own an Executive Search Firm where my Clients (the Companies) like Lennar, Centex, Standard Pacific, Fieldstone etc. consider me one of the best in the business. I am an Certified Life (Executive) Coach with rave reviews from my Clients based on significant shifts in their way of thinking of themselves and world around them.
I am powerful in a any sort of crisis or in managing organizations or handling complex matters. I communicate with a sense of empathy and I am as comfortable with the gardener as a billionaire businessman and I treat each of them with the same level of respect and cheer.
I have been successful in the business world, had my triumphs and failures yet remain humble with no need to wear my inner power or confidence "on my sleeve." I have nothing left to prove. I am very proud to say that my soulmates, lovers, friends, associates, employers, employees and clients were all left "endearingly in my wake."
Meet single man from California, United States. My wonderful wife and dearest friend of 36 years died of a rare, incurable brain disease in 2011. I'm crafting a new life and have a lot to offer.My relationships are close and deep. Created wonderful relationship with wife and family. Cared for dying wife day and night and had fun until her recent passing. I'm caring, strong, creative, resourceful, principled, humerous, passionate and responsible. I have a wonderful group of friends. I love playing music, surfing, skiing, writing and traveling. My parents had a wonderful relationship and gave me opportunities to grow. From an early age I was active in athletics, student government, music and exceeded in school and got a great education both in my youth and post-college. For example, early on I didn't care too much for negotiation and now I am highly skilled making deals that work for all parties. I have two wonderful sisters who are both professional artists. From onset of my wife's terminal illness until the end I gave her the best care imaginable. I created a team with loving caregivers and had fun until the very end. It's the unshakable commitment, creative effort, and consistent love that made it work. Precious few are capable of the loyalty, compassion and creative care I provided when called upon by such adversity. I share this because this milestone made me a real, evolved man. Though material success is a requirement of our culture, it's not the size of the wallet but the size of the heart and contribution to others that creates the joy, satisfaction and peace we really want.
Creating a new life has its challenges since most of my women friends are married. I really want a woman of substance, i.e. creative control, humor, charm, compassion, who recognizes herself as a mere instance of humanity as opposed to focusing on her ego, her looks, her individuality. A hallmark of a great relationship is when the other person brings out the best in us. I love to kid, have fun. I want fun in the simplest of ways–serving coffee in bed, a walk, doing a project or cooking up something new together. While I never dreamed my wife would be afflicted with such a horrible, rare disease, it's my time for me to make new relationships. I am very lucky to have such wonderful family and close friends to support me. Cooking to me is like jazz—I rarely use recipes and love "making it up" with a glass of wine, music and my partner laughing at my side.

Date someone special from Irvine, United States. I am looking for my last date... My Dad married my stepmother when they were both in their mid 60s and had 21 great years together before he passed away. I am still looking for my match. I am looking for a best friend, lover, partner, buddy to share the ups and downs of life. One who enjoys our togetherness but gives the other space too. We do not have to do everything the other does but we give respect to what they find important. Someone who would rather take off for the weekend for the Desert to see the stars... or a longer weekend to cross country ski in Sequoia... or a week or two in Baja than hang out to watch Survivor would be wonderful to find. I am quick witted and a little sarcastic but never cruel. I like good mental challenges and conversation. I like to kiss and be kissed and to hold and cuddle and the things that leads to. I can fix or build almost anything...
