Date single man from Manhattan Beach, United States. Hi,During the day I'm a guy that likes to be outside doing almost anything. Evenings depend: dinners,concerts,theater,TV,walks,and yes even snuggling type stuff. I'm looking for a woman thats comfortable with herself and has a fun,happy and understanding spirit. After all,I'm a guy and like a guy I will probably put my foot in my mouth. I'm not much of a computer person so this is very,very weird! Hope to talk to someone soon.
Meet a soulmate from Manhattan Beach, United States. Life has treated me well, and I'm grateful. But I believe there can be more, and I aim to find it. I guess I’m trying to “make the jump to light speed.” Truth be told, I’m a bit nervous about the whole internet-dating thing, but life is short, so: “cover me, boys, I’m going in.”
My friends would describe me as playful, smart, good-looking, easy-going, funny, hard-working, confident, adventurous, curious/fascinated by the world, eager to explore new places and try new things, reliable, considerate, decent, outdoorsy, youthful, sometimes gregarious, always affable, never mean.
I'm politically moderate. Not religious. Attended UCSB and UCLA Law School. Born in Washington State; have lived in Seattle, San Francisco, San Jose, New York, Alabama, Santa Barbara, Sacramento, Los Angeles, and now Manhattan Beach.
I’m more casual than formal, though “black tie” or a sports coat is nice on occasion. I’m financially secure and an avid world traveler – 40 countries, but would like to visit more. I own a cute little house near the beach. I now work as a lawyer and part-time law professor in downtown LA, but for most of my career, I was a federal prosecutor. (Yes, you’ve probably heard of some of my cases.) I have tons of friends/acquaintances in my various “networks,” and I try hard to stay in touch with them. They’re my peeps.
What I’m looking for: I suppose I’m looking for the “flip-side” of the traits that others see in me, hopefully including smartitude, humorosity, and playfulness. A big and ready laugh is essential. Sweet is nice; big-hearted. Cold and indifferent is not. Being attractive is important, but don’t be a runway model; the smile and expressions are the real winners. No Nurse Ratcheds. Be well-educated, though brains, open-mindedness, and curiosity are more important. Level-headed. Even-keeled. Quirky and eccentric are fine; crazy as a loon … maybe not.
I’m looking for someone who will join in my successes and aspirations, yet will listen to my doubts and screw-ups and still be supportive. Someone to relax with, talk with, wonder about the world with. Someone who is perceptive and “adds value”; who has a life of her own and “gets it.” Someone who is compassionate and empathetic -- a communicator and a listener. Someone who can throw a party, wear a “little black dress,” and interact with “big cheeses” at a fund-raiser, but would just as soon wrestle with the dog or make a tile mosaic or tend the garden. Someone who wants to make the world a better place.
Two final thoughts: First, I have no kids. For better or worse, I let my career take precedence. Now, I’m probably too long in the tooth to brew up any of my own. But if you have children, that’s a good thing. I’m sure my friends’ kids would give me a vouch.
Second, my friends in the internet-dating world have recommended that I fib about my age: “Everyone does it,” they say; “claim to be 50; you look it.” Maybe so, but as Popeye would say, “I am what I am what I am.” Maybe I’ll get some “street cred” for honesty. Spinach is optional.
I have attached lots of photos, mostly from trips. All are within the last few years, although the underwater one with me and my nephews is 6 years old. (I’m the one in the middle.)
Drop me a note. I’m a soft touch. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
Date someone special from Manhattan Beach, United States. I am comfortable about who I am, confident and yet modest. I'm shy, but I step up to the plate. I like to be unpredictable, but reliability is my main asset. I like music of all kinds, play my guitars regularly. I love going to live theater, new restaurants, new places. I like family things and respect parental obligations. I am hands-on in every way. I dress up and down, I like small stores, cowboy boots, bargains, even thrift stores for my 501's.
You are energetic and low maintenance, confident and independent, but want a good, generous, honest, reliable partner. You share your feelings in a relationship at the simplest level, no games, no agendas. New things excite you, stability is your core.
