Date men and women from United States / California / Newport Beach, 51 year old

Date a soulmate from Newport Beach, United States. I treat others the way I want to be treated. I believe that honesty is the best policy. I really enjoy a night out for dinner, concerts, dancing, visiting friends, sporting events, plays etc. Let's get away for the weekend, Palm Springs, Las Vegas, San Diego. Wine tasting is fun. I love a good, hard workout. Born and raised in Los Angeles, I love the beach/ocean. I'm not looking for mommy, I know my way around the kitchen (let me cook for you). My house is always clean, so is my car. My Ideal Woman would laugh often, be ready to enjoy life, want's to dance, desires slow passionate kisses, walks together, we love each other for better or worse. I'm looking for a serious relationship. We continue to grow together as a couple. You will never have to guess what's on my mind. Conversation is key! After one phone conversation, we will agree to meet. Just the two of us, so happy together.

Meet people from Newport Beach, United States. My approach is even tempered and respectful. I prioritize a good attitude and an open mind, trying to find enjoyment in most everything I do (life is too short not to).
I'm well positioned in my career and professional community and while most would classify me as ambitious, my work is not a representation of what defines me. I love the costal lifestyle and stay active with a regular round of golf and cycling 3/4 times a week. I travel internationally a couple times a year and plan to do so for as long as I'm able and typically with a camera in tow. I also enjoy my down time cooking, reading, or finding the right resort/spa to decompress!
I am looking for a capable woman who is bright, emotionally mature, positive, takes pride in her appearance and enjoys a little romance. A woman who understands and is willing to invest in a healthy relationship and has interest in her own growth. Initiative and creativity also have big appeal for me, and of course a good sense of humor. I pride myself on my integrity and look to find someone of similar values.

Meet men and women from Newport Beach, United States. I am the father of three amazing, freethinking, independent children who I adore and have shared custody with. But I believe it’s important that they see I have a fun and interesting life independent of my time with them or else you just become a martyr and a bore.
I think of myself as being positive, unassuming, complex, simple, ambitious, relaxed, confident, childish at times, and young at heart. I can be serious when I need to be but try and limit that need.
Qualities I feel I hold:
I am smart. But I don’t think I’m smarter than anyone else. I think there isn’t a person alive that I can’t learn from (I’m paraphrasing Emerson).
I am cool. Not that I’m a hipster or ride a skateboard, just that I like cool things, cool design, cool places, cool ideas and I pursue them.
I am really lucky. I have always been lucky and if it turns out I am sitting across a table from you or we are walking on the beach hand-in-hand, it’s because I’m lucky; lucky to be with someone like you.
Faults, My faults are endless but here are a few:
I think too much. All my life since I was a kid; my parents, teachers-everybody says I think too much so I’m listing that as a fault.
I cannot figure out how to use a Swifter to save my life.
I could not bring myself to post pictures on this site. There has to be some underlining personality flaw in that, but I will email photos if interested.
Characteristics I find attractive:
Intelligence, at least enough to converse about subjects that lie outside of daily routine. I like women who have masculine qualities but are unmistakably feminine (I may be the counterpart to that). Sincerity; honesty is well and good but I have found people can be honest and at the same time insincere, I’m attracted to sincerity. I like women with just a dash of hippy in them (can’t explain that one). And finally, I love a woman who holds those romantic powers that can get me to think about them all the time.
Lastly I would like to point out I am divorcing but can assure you there is no ugliness associated with that, separated seemed like I haven’t moved on so I went with divorced.
So that’s the long, the short, the middle, and the in-between. I hope we get the chance to talk.

Date single man from Newport Beach, United States. Describe myself? Well, I'm very open minded with a good sense of humor and I appreciate the positive things in the world. I know how to be spontaneously romantic. I enjoy wine tasting, fine dining, dancing, traveling, movies and good conversation.
Basically, I like someone who is fun, fit, confident and secure with who she is (though I would always be there if she ever needed a shoulder). I also like someone with a sense of humor, good values and takes the view that we should be in an equal, caring partnership. She should be the type that seeks not only a lover and someone to share life with, but also wants a best friend. Someone who is in touch with her inner geek would be a plus too :D

Meet a man from Newport Beach, United States. Just looking around for now, unless a great lady jumps out at me. or even better, right into my arms! (or lap hey-hey)
Am a "do it now" guy. very positive, very energetic. Very generous. Generous to a fault. But my lady has to be usually self-sufficient, resourceful, street-smart, as well as book-smart. And under age 32. ID check and later background check. I will not tolerate any lies. You should be close to your family, who are all or mostly local.
I dont let naysayers swerve me off course. I go for and get what I want, gotta kill me to stop me, and that aint gonna be easy haha..
Love my life, my son, my work. My family. My varied, sometimes motley, crew of friends. Everything. (Ok, except LA traffic!) Love to get out for anything from surfing to skiing or occasional glammis dirtbiking.
Hope to find someone LA close. Domestic Goddess? great cook? Please inquire within ;) I might want to get married again in the future but just want have light easy fun for a while. Nothing serious any time soon. Just being honest! And I dont give or spend any big money real fast. Mom Pop didn't raise a fool. So please dont ask!
Of course, you're very attractive., beautiful. Not necessarily model perfect but an easy 8/10. in fact, my was a model. as were several ex-girlfriends. - guess thats my level. Youre a true team player. Faithful, loyal to the end. Richer or poorer. It's not hard to figure it if you're with me or against me. You always have my back, and I always have yours.
Like being home or dining out equally. maybe some sports, some arts -no musicals, please (yeah Im one of those guys that dont like 'em); classic literature. A good thinker and doer. Educated helps. But must have the wits to use it. Above all truly sweet and humble. first date will not be chateau megabucks!
No attitudes, please. Or grandiose sense of entitlement. Or green card seekers. Or even green card holders, for that matter. Must be a permanent So Cal resident. Not a gypsy at all. A true, domestic goddess with solid family values, including being a faithful loyal lover, wife and a dedicated mother.
Actually can't believe im on match.com. Or you. Especially you. Family will certainly be skeptical. How will we know you're not always going to be trolling new guys? no way to know, right? And who has time to keep checking on you?
(i see some of the same old pros around here from 10 yrs ago!)
So I give up looking for anybody serious, loyal or faithful-right now.
So am going back to church...
Good luck all.
I'm out.

Meet people from California, United States. Low maintenance, forgiving, much easier to love than hate, easy going, always laughing at myself, quick witted, caring, dependable, I don't like to exercise, but I do. "I'm too young to be this old". Family and friends are a priority, keep it simple, no drama please, kids are fine, always looking towards the happy side. No one is perfect. I could go on, but this is a ballpark description...
I am looking for that "chemistry" or internal spark in which we can both feel and use to get to know one and another. Laughing, trusting, helping... That "comfortable silence" is key. Of course a sense of humor. Able to read one's thoughts with facial expressions. Time flies with the right person or soon to be right person. A new friend.

Date someone special from California, United States. Hi how are you?
I would like to meet a girl that really revs me up. Good communicator Smart, happy, funny and attractive. Hopefully adventurous and willing to do outdoor things with me. Take in some games, nice dinners, movies, visits with OUR friends. Places of interest and traveling. I kinda prefer a more traditional relationship in where my girl is the queen and I get to spoil her with lots of attention and affections but at the same time she is my equal on any matter. I can take charge when applicable but she will always have my ear and respect. It’s really exciting to meet a new person and ya get that fluttery feel. I so look forward to that. I am a real funny and entertaining guy. I like to be happy and make happy. I have a fantastic circle of friends that you will just enjoy. My lil family lives in palm springs and they are the greatest of course! I definitely have a creative side that helps me with my career designing. come on lets get to it

Meet men and women from California, United States. Strength? Check. Compassion? Got it. Humor? More than enough. Engaging? Definitely.
Am I describing you?
Great. Then we are a lot alike!
I am a fan that "Like minds attract." If your spirit, intellect and passions run as deeply as mine, we'll recognize that chemistry rather quickly.
What turns me on are people whose hearts are deep, loving, and who dream big – and will do anything to see their visions come to life.
Nurturing talent and ambition, finding the glowing gem at the core of a beautiful, ambitious goddess and warming it into life is one of my great passions. Too many people are jaded or negative, but you aren't and neither am I. We will dream together, but with me, you'll get a raving fan, mentorship, creativity, strength, collaboration and the wisdom of the battle won.
I am an open person who loves to laugh and live life richly, passionately and vibrantly. I have been a successful radio host on ABC radio, a real estate developer, author and publisher. As an avid scuba diver, traveler, and instrument-rated private pilot, I enjoy being in motion and TRULY learning something new each day. Nothing beats trying an unusual recipe in the kitchen from our recent trip to Central America or a 1/2 day hike in the peaceful silence of the Santa Monica mountains.
Back to that chemistry-thing. Recognizing chemistry is as important as our valuable time. Your intuition is refined-right? Trust it! I do. When you meet someone, you may not fall in love instantly, but you'll know right away if there is a foundation from which to build. It's not a crime to tell someone that the chemistry simply isn't there, but it sure feels delightful when it is recognized and richly fed by both people with humor, passion and sensuality.
I believe in what I have to offer and I truly thrive on helping people achieve their dreams. It genuinely turns me on to inspire people into new freedom and accomplishments in their lives. Giving (pampering you), empowering (sharing your dream), and being your rock are not merely aphrodisiacs, they are some of my core values. With a twinkle in my eye and integrity at my core, there is no limit to what we can achieve together.

Lady that is down to earth, and knows what she wants, and does not play Games. I don't have time for games. She must be up beat , and have a positive attitude. Lois, if you are out there, contact the S man. Liberal, or progressive Ladies need not contact me.

Meet a man from California, United States. More than one ex gf has called me a man's man. I also am often complimented on being an old school gentleman. I have been described as passionate, funny, driven, confident and having a big heart. I am very passionate about life (credit the Greek heritage) and all things I do. I don't do anything half way. I am very honest and don't waste my time lying about myself in this profile. So what you see here is who I am. If you don't like it, I wish you luck, but I won't portray myself differently than I am just to get someone interested.
I have my priorities in order. I know fulfillment comes from the quality of the relationships one has. As I grow older my Mom seems a lot smarter. I alternate between quoting her and John Wooden, both the best at what they did. I have some really good friendships that are very important to me. Friends enrich ones life.
I hope to find a woman who is positive, sweet and active. I like treating my lady like a princess, but there shouldn't be any question about who wears the pants in the family. I am kind of old fashioned, and a gentleman.
I work out 5-6 days a week and you should enjoy staying in good shape yourself. I eat healthy (except for my occasional sugar fix). If you like to shop that is a plus, because I am one of those rare men who likes doing it.
I own my own auction house that focuses on selling props and costumes for the Hollywood studios.
I am very monogamous. A one-woman man. I am not a serial dater or looking for the next best thing. I am looking for one special lady.
The two little boys in the one photo are my best friend's little boys, who I adore and am very close to (they live in Florida near my whole family, and I see them once a month). Because of them I don't feel the need to have my own kids. They are very dear to me. Kids are great and if you have some, that is cool with me.
I hope this profile has gotten your interest up, and if so, please let me know!
Alec
