Date men and women from California, United States. What makes me smile? Watching a young father care for for his young children is very precious to me. Sitting on my back deck and watching the sunrise come up over Monterey is another thrill, better than a cup of coffee!
What I am looking for, A bright, relatively happy person, who has taken care of themselves, A person who is not afraid to communicate about real things (sex,money, feelings, problem solving, real stuff that gets in the way) If you are a fear based person-please pass. If looking good in jeans or a black dress is comfortable-great. If living on a Santa Cruz Mountain Top in a Very classey Geodesic Dome filled with hot tubs, skylights and views is too far out-Sorry. I enjoy a small rose garden, my beautiful community, and the thought of a lover and friend to share my life with.
My last child just graduated from Vanderbuilt and has been accepted into their Nursing program.
My other two are working and starting families. These are my greatest accomplishments and I am thrilled to have been in relationship with these wonderful beings.
I have a lot of energy for a relationship and i hope to find a person who has similar feelings. Life is not a spectator sport and I am available to participate. I am a physical person who loves to dance, love and be present for the special moments weather they are a butterfly or a touch.
I believe that this is our time we have raised our children, given to society and it is time to live. Our wrinkles are the road maps to our maturity and we have earned them. We are the wise elders that we always looked for! So how about it, It has been a great ride so far. Share your vision with me and lets compare notes. Maybe we are on the same page.
Please, Please, I look like my picture-Please LOOK-Like yours.
As an active high energy, interesting person, I do think that our history is relevant, I have been a teacher, counselor, school administrator, building contractor,(two trades) and I have helped raise five children. My father is 94 and still gardens and runs 3 businesses. My mom died last year and was tap dancing six months before her departure.
Meet someone special from California, United States. I enjoy tennis, a challenging hill on my bike, or a simple stroll with an intelligent, humorous companion. Currently on my second semi-retirement; decided there was more to life than making more money. (Any fool can get up and go to work in the morning; it takes creativity to find something better to do!) I have time to play since I only work professionally about eight hours a week, mostly to stay mentally challenged. I like the simple things in life; designing solutions to problems, working with my hands, hiking, reading. Seldom watch TV. As you can see from my photos, I'm much more likely to be found in casual attire than dressed up.
I'm looking for a serious, committed relationship; I'm not a player. Still friends with my high school sweetheart!
I seldom respond to winks.
Date single man from California, United States. Just recently semi-retired, sold my businesses, started up a newer easier one, and looking for someone to share my newly acquired time. I'm adventurous, need to be with someone who can keep up with all the activity, love to travel, experience anything that won't hurt or scar, and occasionally get wild just for fun. Gotta drive with the top and windshield down! I like all the things that we all do, everything written on the other posts, and then some. It would be nice to meet someone who could keep up verbally as well as physically. Someone tall, slender, energetic in life, spontaneous, intelligent, enthusiastic, uninhibited, willing to try new things without the, "Oh, I don't know if I could do that" syndrome. I know you're out there, Let's meet!
Meet a man from California, United States. I am an extremely active, athletic and aware man who is looking for an equally active, athletic and aware woman. I enjoy a wide variety of activities but I am open to learning and experiencing new ones with a partner as well.
Me? I bike, swim, lift weights for exercise. I enjoy music, travel, musicals, concerts, ballroom dancing (excellent lead), tent trailer camping, driving over to the coast, exploring new venues, dining out, special times with friends and family. I prefer nature to the city but do enjoy going up to the San Francisco for special occasions. I am a long time season ticket holder to Broadway San Jose and really do enjoy musicals very much. I also enjoy going to concerts at the Mountain Winery, Viilla Montalvo as well as Shore Line. I am not pretentious and would probably not do well with someone who is. I have an excellent sense of humor and wit and I am not above seeing the humor in many of the less than brilliant things I have done in my life.
You? I believe that I would be most comfortable with someone who keeps herself in good physical condition and makes exercise and fitness an integral part of her life. I am not, however, looking for someone who is obsessed with exercise. That isn't me and I wouldn't want that in my partner as well. It would be nice to have someone who enjoys watching and following sports since that is something I enjoy. I would do well with someone who is open and able to communicate well. I'm looking for someone who understands that a relationship is about compromise and giving/receiving not getting/taking. Clearly, it would be nice to find someone who enjoys many of the activities that I listed above. Having said this, I am trying to keep my laundry list of qualities that you have to a minimum. You be who you are, as I am who I am. If you think about it, it can't be any other way. If it is meant to be, it will happen. I know that I can be a much better companion to someone now than I ever was in the past. Good luck to you in your search for companionship.
Date a soulmate from California, United States. I love the Earth and all life on it. We have the choice of being caretakers or destroyers. If we choose the former, future generations will have the opportunity to enjoy what we inherited, If we choose the latter. the survival of future generations will be doubtful.
Meet people from California, United States. Hard working, successful, energetic man who knows when to stop and enjoy life, family, and friends. Fun-loving, humorous, responsible, who enjoys a good conversation with special friends, a good Pinot Noir, and my special companion. I am comfortable in most types of settings formal, casual, and that spontaneous moment to just let it go. Being on or near water is that special get away place for both body and mind. Closely followed by watching the snow fly in the Sierras or the Rockies. Traveled extensively years ago both for work and fun, slowed down the last decade and ready to start back up.
Qualities I admire in a woman include someone who is outgoing, loves to laugh at life and ourselves, intelligent, affectionate, even a little in public, sports minded especially the Sharks, and spontaneous
