Date men and women from United States / California / Novato, 62 year old

Date a man from California, United States. Well let's get this out of the way right up front: I won't be a "perfect fit", and neither will you. Our lives at this stage are complex and different, simply from not having an intertwined history. If the fates allow, I'll have 20-some years more to enjoy on this little blue marble. Oh, I know how to have a good time and I treat myself well enough, yet I still hope to share joy with a genuine and loving companion -- We’re not meant to be alone on this alluring journey.
About me:
I’m an educated gentleman, with successes, foibles, and my share of mistakes. I’ve been fortunate and blessed to know true love in my life so I miss the warm connection of standing together as one, no matter the storm. Strong physically, emotionally and spiritually, I can be the most romantic knight in miles, yet I’ve become increasingly realistic about potential connections. I get far more pleasure from giving than receiving-- and I've NEVER left the seat up, nor had to be asked to take out the trash!
I’m healthy, well employed, active, warm, articulate, always polite, and I laugh easily and heartily. My feelings are readily accessible and I’m also a serious thinker. I find humor and irony in much of life and good friends appreciate my often unique perspective. According to all my kids I’m an excellent father. My large original family is exceptionally warm and welcoming and my adult sons are fabulous individuals. I own my own tux and I'm adept in the kitchen. (Guaranteed, your mom would love me... ) My dreams are still filled with adventure and I'm up early to enjoy the crisp clarity of morning. I’m a sports fan, especially of the Niners and Giants.
Who I seek:
Chemistry is elusive; those special sparks within feelings can't be forced. "Make (you) laugh!" ?? Let's make each other laugh! Physical attraction seems essential, yet the sexiest part of a woman is (usually) her brain. Reality has shown that a distance over a hundred miles proves too much; caring, sharing, daring, baring-- all work best at relatively close range. Fitness matters, as does a tender empathetic heart. What else? I require an authentic communicator (since I am one).I'm fine sending a few communiques via this medium, but then let's TALK, and even (gasp) MEET. Please note: I’m not going to take you on four great dates and then not hope for at least an invitation to brunch or a home-cooked meal in return-- but I'd settle for a surprise picnic and hike. Humorous sarcasm and occasional klutziness are quite acceptable; "Currently Separated" and "Trying to Quit" are not. Whiners, incessant talkers and whistlers need not apply!
I like almost all dogs, cats seem to like me (especially during allergy season), and horses fascinate me... Yet too many pix of pets in a profile raises a yellow flag (Do I need to see all FIVE horses-- individually?). Postcard-style travelogues don't reveal much... Hey, I deliberately didn’t add the pix of me shirtless, holding up a fish in front of my Harley, or my reflection in the bathroom mirror..
As often as possible I choose kindness as my way of meeting the world, but I also stand my ground. Lately I vacillate between being comfortably content in my aloneness and then, when it edges toward the chasm of loneliness, I miss the treasure of a great relationship. Heck, the truth is, these days I'd get a charge out of coming home to a warm smile.
"Where there's smoke... there's smoke."
“For all sad words of tongue and pen, the saddest are these: It might have been."
"Love is a fire. But whether it is going to warm your heart or burn down your house, one can never tell."

Date men and women from California, United States. I'm a laid back gentleman who lives one day at a time. In my free time I enjoy hiking, tennis and socializing with friends. I own an independent sales business that keeps me busy most days, but if I'm caught up, I can usually get away for fun activities during the week. I have 2 adult children living in San Francisco. My son is married and has a 1 year old daughter who I adore. My daughter has a boyfriend and doesn't have a lot of time for her dad but we see each other regularly and stay in touch by phone. We're a close family that stays in touch and positively support each other.
I'm looking for someone to spend free time with. Trips to museums, hiking, a movie or just a cozy meal out or in appeals to me as well. I love to cook, so a dinner at home appeals as well.

Meet someone special from United States. Hmmm...not a simple task to capture a person's essence in pixels so perhaps a few of the important things, a collage of me. Fit, active, intelligent with a love of the outdoors, exploring, hiking, good food, fine wine, indy films, funny movies, sharp wit, brains, books, travel, getting together with friends, caring for loved ones, gardening, artistic expression, a well turned phrase, photography. A mixture of serious and sass, compassion and passion. Friends tell me I have more energy than most people they know - comes from a healthy mindset, a love of life's offerings and a great appreciation of this beautiful area we live in. Life would be even more wonderful with a special person to share times together, quiet and romantic, wild and crazy, the whole range of things we do in life...ours to create. Time spent at home is a pleasure when having friends visit or simply a quiet evening. I'm at times contemplative and quiet and have reflected well on life's lessons. I'm open to new ideas you would bring to me and hope to share some of mine with you. Long summer days find me out in nature, on my bike, hiking, driving to the coast with the top down on my convertible, working in my garden. Winter is a wonderful time to enjoy reading, an intimate night in front of the fireplace, listening to music, talking, making dinner, sharing time together. I like the closeness of having a special person in my life, of developing the sweet intimacies and understanding between two caring people. I value the give and take of being in a relationship and feel I bring to one a healthy sense of fun, depth of character, integrity, passion, openness. Well, that's a scratch on the surface. If you are interested in doing some wonderfully fun things together with the potential of developing a loving, committed relationship, we have that in common and I look forward to hearing from you.Looking for the great combination of style, intellect, panache and wit, with a sense of humor to laugh together and at ourselves. Spontaneous and daring, sophisticated and sensual all rolled into one. Willing to share your thoughts and wanting to hear mine. A free spirited, fit person with a healthy and active lifestyle, fully engaged in life and open to new ideas. It would be fun to cook together, eat out at great restaurants, sip our way through some fine wines, visit the farmers market after morning coffee, travel up and down around this beautiful area in which we live, take in movies, throw popcorn at each other, visit museums and see plays, ride bicycles around the bay area, hike some trails, exchange opinions and ideas, talk about books, experience the simple pleasures of everyday life and times of great excitement. Looking for the ever sought after chemistry with a special person, someone who makes me smile when we look in each other's eyes and you feel the same. Someone who is my best friend, lover, confidant and seeks the same from me. A centered person who wants that special person in his life, to connect with and feel like you are home... and knows that the measure of a person is the grace with which one maneuvers through the joys and disappointments of life.

Date a woman from United States. I am a generous, adventurous, compassionate, fun-loving, curious, independent, intelligent, tender,loving, responsible, spontaneous, passionate, creative, complex and TOTAL woman. I love to travel whether it's a day trip to the coast, a long drive down 101, or week in Europe. I love France, Italy and England, but I have lived in Hawaii, had some incredible adventures in Bolivia (... the revolution that started the day I arrived...) Peru,and Ecuador (... the midnight ride through the jungle and the dugout canoe into the Amazon...). I have spent most of my life in the arts (theatre) and regard art and music as necessities of life. I swim for fun and fitness, love to slow dance or boogie, hike in the mountains, stroll on the beach, walk in the city. I love seeing a great film, or great theatre with someone who shares the same passion. If you make me laugh, you win big points. I am fiercely loyal to my friends and family. My two children will always be the greatest treasures of my life. I believe in the transformative power of love, the physical and spiritual aspects of sex, and the enduring strength of true friendship, and remain optomistic about the possibility of discovering all 3 in one relationship..The man I would like to meet has a comfortable sense of self-confidence and self-knowledge that makes him easy to be around. He is generous and practical, responsible and silly. He loves his work, but doesn't allow it to be more important than the people in his life. He cares about his health and fitness; he says "yes" more than he says, "no"; he likes to give and receive affection. He is trusting and trustworthy in a relationship; he treats all beings with respect; he stands up for what he believes. The man I want to meet has strong values and beliefs and acts on them. He is a dreamer and a doer. His world and mine intersect but don't overlap. He knows how to be a friend as well as a lover. He is someone to laugh, cry, dream, and dance with. There is a special place just between his chest and his shoulder that, when I lay my head there, feels like home.

Meet a soulmate from United States. Down to earth, easy going, romantic, caring and honest. Looking for a man who has those same qualities and is physically, emotionally and financially fit...a man who is looking for a friendship that could turn into a mutually nurturing and fulfilling relationship . Honesty and integrity are very important to me, as is a good sense of humor, love for travel and adventure and just a general zest for life.
I love being near the ocean or any body of water, hiking in the mountains or anywhere when the wildflowers are in full bloom, or driving through the wine country in any season (mustard in the vineyards in the spring or the colors of fall). Depending on the day, you can find me hiking the trails of Marin, bird watching, kayaking, gardening or helping people in my community with volunteer work and, yes, still working full time. I enjoy attending sporting events, symphony, movies, live theater, concerts, wine tasting, dining out, gym workouts, yoga and meditation. Love to hop in the car and take road trips and explore the back roads. I seem to be lured off to some foreign destination once a year and let my senses take in the sights and sounds of a different culture. Would also like to spend some time traveling around the U.S. and revisiting some of the national parks. I also like to stay home and just relax. Let's cook a meal together, share a bottle of wine, and snuggle up on the couch and watch a good movie.
Enough about me. Tell me about you.

I aso take trips to Lake Tahoe where I can enjoy a few runs skiing and, of course, the beauty that the mountains have to offer. I'm fortunate to have had the opportunity to travel much of the world as a flight attendant for many years. There are a number of favorite places that I would like to return too and share with someone special.
