Date women from United States / California / Novato, 64 year old

Date someone special from Novato, United States. I love most to laugh - I find that a sense of humor keeps everything in perspective. I love to have fun! I have my own business and tend to work a lot. Could use a bit of balance, probably.
I find intelligence to be the most sexy thing a man can have along with a good sense of humor. A man who is comfortable in his own skin is most appealing to me. Handsome is great, but character will work fine.
I am tall with long brown hair and green eyes. I am more curvy than straight and I love adventure. I am very optimistic and always think new exciting things are just around the corner. Learning new things by the day, the minute and by the hour is the light in my life. I love a lively debate and to share others opinions and experiences with others.
I have been a flight attendant, photographer, computer sales person, graphic designer, public relations and marketing person. Currently I own a web site business on which I sell advertising. still build web sites for clients and design jewelry. Sometimes I wake up and am a bit unsure which direction to go first... luckily, I love it all and it seems to always sort itself out!
I am from Michigan and have lived in the Bay Area most of my life with the exception of 2-1/2 years in Australia and 1 year in North Lake Tahoe.
Integrity, fidelity and sincerity are very important to me. I have fairly traditional values with a bit of a wild streak and would like to find someone who also lives that way!Someone energetic, adventurous, upbeat and positive in outlook; even tempered, confident with a great sense of humor. A passion for life, intelligence and ambition (as in doing more in life, creating more, achieving more, exploring more - does not neccessarily need to correlate to money).

Date a soulmate from Novato, United States. It's amazing and a miracle to be alive. I've always known that. I was born a dancer and a free spirit. I have fun wherever I am, love life, people, realize that we're all connected, and I deeply care about this planet. I am introspective and live from my heart, although this mind is often obsessive and thinks too much. I am sensitive, feel deeply and easily laugh and cry. I don't take myself too seriously and often laugh at the ways I am ridiculous...seeing myself as marvelously caught in the human predicament. I am usually able to see your point of view and agree it's as valid as mine. Mine often changes. I don't really believe my thoughts and don't take my opinions seriously. I like what Rumi says about meeting in a field where there's no wrong doing or right doing. I also don't do the blame/shame game and believe we all do the best we can from moment to moment.
Although deeply spiritual, there's a very active "decadent" part of me which enjoys great wine, food and generally whatever is pleasurable. I am often playful and childlike and especially love children. I don't believe in a lot of rules or "shoulds." You'll see that I'm openly expressive, sometimes dramatic or entertaining and that I have a terrific sense of humor, can be quite witty and off the wall. I like playing with words and often make up my own. There is the appreciation of excellence in many things.
I enjoy the whole spectrum of life and its opposites, such as really roughing it by camping in the woods and then and fine hotels with great room service. Or steamed vegies and brown rice and on another occasion caviar and champagne. It's all part of the joy of life.
What matters to me most is honesty, integrity, being true and authentic, being part of the solution and not the problem. I know I am capable of the deepest love in a relationship, am nurturing and giving, affectionate and sensitive, understanding and intuitive, always changing and growing. This mind and heart are open and grateful and vulnerable, unafraid of getting hurt but caring very deeply about myself. And others. I have an artistic nature and eclectic tastes. I have felt like I am every person on the planet in one being.
I have done a lot of work on myself (which continues) and feel I am ready for the relationship that I have always dreamed about. What an amazing gift if it were to happen. It will be beyond wonderful. I say YES to that possibility. Y E S !

Meet someone special from United States. I was the youngest journalist to cover the Vietnam War, and IРІР‚в„ўm still an adventurous soul with an insatiable desire for knowledge and a knack for entertaining. My life experiences have been many and varied: in addition to my years as a journalist, I worked for Senator Lloyd Bentsen of Texas, organized many events for the Democratic National Committee and other organizations in Washington, D.C., spent several years doing free-lance public relations work, managed a large real estate office in the Chicago suburbs, and have been a landscape designer since I moved to California. My daughter and her family, who live in West Marin, are very important to me.
My friends tell me that I am smart, honest, loving and fun - my great sense of humor brings laughter to their lives. They are quick to point out that I'm the one who makes things happen. I love to cook and entertain frequently. When I moved here and knew no one, I started a book club and a Girl's Night Out group to make new friends. Now IРІР‚в„ўve joined several Meetup groups which I love and spend time volunteering for a couple of organizations.
You'll see that I'm a good balance of responsible and spontaneous. I love my work as a landscape designer and spend lots of time outdoors but have many other interests including art, movies, books, live theater and music, travel, the environment, politics and much more. Technical stuff, home repairs and anything having to do with cars, IРІР‚в„ўm not very good at, but I do appreciate those who are.
I'm interested in meeting a man who has as much of a thirst for adventure as I do and who is confident, kind, interesting and fun. I tend to be drawn to men who have a 'quirky' intelligence and are unafraid to pursue what they want in life. Age and physical appearance don't matter to me as much as attitude.
While I want someone who aims to squeeze every last drop out of life, I hope that passion is tempered by the desire to build a relationship with just one person eventually. Someone who isn't overly conservative, doesn't dwell on the woes of the world and is ready to start this exciting new chapter of life is the man whom I'm looking for.
There's so much more to talk about, but I'm thinking that would be so much better over drinks or the ubiquitous cup of coffee.

Date a woman from United States. I recently moved to Novato from the South Oregon Coast. I was widowed 8 years ago and truly miss not having a good friend and companion to do things with, also to love and be loved again. I am not interested in one-nightstands, I'd like to get to know someone first, to become friends and then see where it leads.
I am well travelled and educated. I love the outdoors. I have a dog, she's a border collie/blue heeler mutt, who has been a great comfort to me.
I moved to CA to be closer to my family, I have two married daughters, one lives in San Rafael and the other in the City and three darling grandsons. Its nice to see more of them, but I feel its important for me to build a life of my own, I now feel ready to move on to a new phase of my life.
I am blessed with good health and belong to a health club where I like to lap swim, do aquasize, and yoga for exercise, I also enjoy gardening, cooking, good food and wine, dining in and out, dancing,I am now learning Argentine tango, travelling,skiing (not well, but I try) I have also just started to play tennis. I love the mountains, and also beach vacations with all it entails - Carribean, Mexico, Europe,Greek Islands, Hawii etc. I enjoy painting, watercolor,but would like to try acrylics and other art forms.
I'm an environmentalist, love animals, enjoy wildlife, birds, nature. wildflowers, botany, archeology,geology.
I enjoy all the arts, music, theatre, museums, movies,dancing etc.
I'm originally from England, my father was an army officer so I travelled all over growing up. I moved to Vermont when I first came to the States, then New Hampshire, then Minnesota, then the South Coast of Oregon where we bought a small ranch after my husband retired, and now I'm here.
I'm kinda old fashioned valuewise and would like to meet someone who is intelligent, kind hearted, sensitive, has a good sense of humor, is sincere, honest, financially secure,and a true gentleman - is that too much to ask?

Meet a soulmate from United States. My closest friends tell me that I am fun to be with. According to them, I am funny, interesting, and different from most people you meet. It might be because I am English!! I am in good shape for my age, or any age! and I like to be active. Although I am retired, I like to go out every day and do something. I particularly like the beach, hiking, and spending time with my grandchildren. I have traveled to many interesting places, South Africa, New Zealand, Iceland, to name a few. One of my daughters works for the airlines, which is nice for me. I enjoy oil painting, I paint flowers landscapes, and many other subjects that inspire me. I love to cook. I have been told I am a great cook, I think that is because I love it, and like to eat healthy good fresh food. Never been a fan of any fast food! If a guy likes that sometimes that is fine with me. Most guys seem to like their burgers etc.! I like all kinds of cuisine. When I eat out I enjoy French food the most, I love France and especially Paris. Although Italy and places like Venice are hard to beat, especially as an artist the light is beautiful. My main passion is flowers. I grow them, and if it is winter, I buy them. My favorite are roses and Calla Lily. Reading is another thing I enjoy. I am liberal in my outlook on just about all things. Mostly want to find a man who is intelligent, funny, or at least finds me funny! Honesty and affection, are on the top of the list. My little dog is only a puppy right now, but I obviously love animals as well as children. I have four adult independent children, none of whom live at home, and six grandchildren.
