Date men and women from United States / California / Newport Beach, 52 year old

Date someone special from Newport Beach, United States. I'm Clark Kent with a twist -- low key, strong, and reliable, but with a playful/silly streak.
I could offer a variety of additional self-adjectives but I don't think that would be particularly helpful. To me, it's the shape of one's heart that means the most, and that's something to be discovered rather than described.
There's a Billy Joel song which includes the following lyrics,
"If I travel all my life,
And I never get to stop and settle down,
Long as I have you by my side,
There's a roof above and good walls all
around,
You're my castle, you're my cabin and my
instant pleasure dome,
I need you in my house 'cause you're my
home."
I've known that kind of relationship. "Home" was wherever she was. I'm haunted by memories of what was an incredible 'belonging,' an utter contentedness, I felt with her. With God's grace, I hope to find that again.
My "her" is a collection of seeming inconsistencies such as responsible and playful, smart and silly, good and naughty, independent and loving, off-beat and conventional, and sweet and strong. Equally important, she has an old soul and recognizes that in all good things lies the hand of God.
Yes, I've twice mentioned God. My faith, like humor and mischievousness, is part of who I am. If that's a turn-off for you, so be it.
Obstacles overcome and adversities endured have made me the person I am today. Gratitude is the word which comes to mind when I think about my life. If this sentiment resonates with you, we may be a good match.
Finally, you should know that my inner little boy is frequently allowed off the leash. I celebrate humor. In my life I've discovered that there's often a fine line between laughter and tears. I choose laughter. If you can say the same thing, you may be my "Lois."

I enjoy both the finer and simpler things in life. I like to stay active and love to travel. I'm looking for a woman who has passion and compassion, intellect with humor, and who as a partner in a relationship will have a willingness to talk as well as to listen.

I’m very close with my family. They (sibs, Mom, nieces/nephews) are all on the East Coast and we talk/text all the time and I visit often.
And now for the serious stuff: Today is what we have and it’s important to nurture that. I have tried to develop an appreciation of what I have, focusing on the positive and not dwelling on that which I cannot change. If a hurdle comes up I try to go around it. It’s a commitment to not wasting Time (capital T) or emotional energy. It’s a commitment to ourselves, and to those that bring light and love to our lives.

Meet a soulmate from California, United States. Rather than tell you a little about me that I can in 4000 words or less, I thought it might give you a better understanding of who I am by describing what is important to me in life.
Some of my most cherised memories: The first breath of each of my children, the smell of my mothers perfume, playing basketball with my dad, talking and laughing with my sisters, any moment spent with close friends, the majesty of the Teton and Himalayan mountains, the history of Europe in its people and architecture, witnessing the bright "green flash" with friends as the sun set over the Pacific Ocean, the sound of crashing waves of the Pacific Ocean, the colors of the Caribbean Ocean and the warmth of the summer sun.
The common thread in all these things - a deep connection with family, friends, nature or God, whether it be a single second in time or years in the making. That's what I'm looking for - someone who appreciates those intimate moments and connections and desires to share them together.
If my age is an issue for you, then you're not the woman for me. I can't change that number and I see absolutely no reason to lie about it, or anything else for that matter. Eventually, we'll meet and I want everything about me to be truthful and amazing.
I am looking for someone who is fiercly loyal, will always have my back through thick and thin, never run away, is adventureous, spontaneous, witty, intelligent, faithful, grounded, passionate, sensual and can make a mean martini! I will give you all the same.
There is so much more I could write, but I think it best to save some good surprises and conversations for meeting face to face. I hope you're up for the adventures to come.
Thanks for stopping by and good luck in your search.
Cheers!

Date someone special from California, United States. I am fun, outgoing and love to travel. My traveling is made easier by the fact that I speak several languages and I am always willing to try new experiences. I would like to meet someone special in my life, I would love to meet a romantic , who enjoys spending time with me and getting to know each other. Also a sense of humor is very important and positive outlook on life.
I like to try new restaurants also I enjoy cooking dinner with friends, but with a very good bottle of wine. Nothing is more fun than creating a wonderful meal at home and enjoying it together. Staying fit and healthy is important to me. I like to workout at the gym. Going for walks with a special person is always a plus. Chemistry is very important to me it creates the magic that makes everything else possible.

Meet a soulmate from California, United States. As I said earlier, I'm a very happy person. I have a positive outlook on life and I'm looking for someone with the same attitude Negativity rarely slips into my life, for good reason...I refuse to be negative or put up with others who are. I love to get out and "do" things and at the top of my list is golf. I golf at least three days a week and I really want to find someone who has that same passion. I really enjoy riding bikes around a new city, traveling to new places, movies, theater, wine tasting, and if I'm not laughing at you or myself, something is very wrong. There has to be a lot of laughter! I'm looking for someone who is affectionate, spontaneous, confident and romantic, and don't forget the sense of humor.
I often say I'm half tomboy and haf princess...and I like both halves equally. My friends say I'm super funny and engaging...you'll have tell me if you agree. I'm very social but also enjoy just relaxing with someone special. I am in a new phase of my life and it really just couldn't get any better...well, it could...that's why I'm here. It seems like I have been married forever, so this is all very new to me. I've been single now for two years and I think I'm ready to lower the force field around my heart. Since I don't hang out in bars and hate shopping, I've come here to try to meet someone.
I don't play games. I'm honest to a fault. I believe I'm good at communicating and I tend to tell it like it is.
I'm not sure about this process...we'll see what happens..

Date a woman from United States. In a major unexpected turn of events, I moved from Los Angeles back to Newport Beach (NHHS class of '77!) in mid-June to take care of my 93 year-old mom who has dementia, after having to put my equally addled and elderly dad in a nursing home. As much as family means to me, I never in a million years would have seen this situation coming even 6 months ago when I was planning a move to Austin, TX, but here I am. I learned that sometimes your personal plans need to take a back seat when your loved ones need help. And when that happens, you do what you need to do; but not without praying for strength, patience, grace and a BevMo 5 cent wine sale!
Not seeing how I could move down here and keep my job in West Hollywood, I gave notice and was honored with the offer to work from home, commuting one day a week. So that's what I do. Lucky for me, they weren't ready to let me go just yet. :)
In the meantime, between cooking for Mom/making sure she's ok and remodeling/redecorating my old bedroom to make this chapter bearable (the wallpaper had to go!), I yearn for some adult company (and an excuse to not eat dinner at 4:30pm!), intelligent conversation (repetitive trips down memory lane are great, but...) and a partner in crime. I'd like to rediscover this gorgeous area that I left in '89 to pursue a career in the music industry, and I'd like someone to share the experiences with. Walking over to Castaways Park to watch the 4th of July fireworks from the Dunes would have been so much more enjoyable with some company!
Lifestyle in general is quite different down here for me than it was in the heart of the city, and I want to embrace as much of it as I can. I'm taking tennis lessons, would consider golf (I'm good at pool - same hand/eye coordination, right?) boating, hiking, museums, bike riding (just bought a new 7-speed cruiser!), concerts, high-brow/low-brow restaurants...you know, the usual. Unfortunately, as much as I love a weekend getaway or fabulous vacation, I'm unable to do either at the moment. Thankfully, this area is chock-full of fun things to do.
What am I looking for? A man who is good company; a caring bloke who understands what I'm going through or is willing to be supportive through this chapter. It won't last forever, but this isn't always easy for me and could get more difficult. Despite that, I want to make the best of my own life while I help my folks' sun set. Honesty is imperative and a wicked sense of humor is important - mine can be a little dark lately, but it gets me through this ridiculous stuff that will make a good book or sitcom someday. And I totally dig a man who's a guy's guy and capable of fixing stuff. I'm a DIY'er and don't mind getting dirty or breaking a nail for the sake of a creative project. I admire that quality in my man as well as someone who, in exchange for my joining him at an Action flick, won't mind watching The Bachelor or a RomCom with me occasionally.
Life is for living - let's go have some fun! Are you game?
I'm going to update this and add that I love kids. I always thought I'd have several, but alas....So, I'm super open to meeting someone who has kids of any age or someone who would be open to adopting someday. I definitely want kids - step or adopted/foster in my future.
