Date someone special from California, United States. No longer a member.. Gone Fishin' for the summer... Please no winks or e-mails too tempting to re-up... Good luck in your search... Have a great day.
HI !! With the weather turning brighter.. it's time for a little spring cleaning.. to include this profile.
So me... hoping to find "the one".. not in a Matrix kind of a way... more Princess Bride.... leading to Marwage...
I am a simple guy.. what you see is what you get (including my pictures.. no surprises)
These are a few of my favorite things:
- My Kids: LOVE their humor.. the fact that they appreciate all music, and respect all people. and the fact that they still love to snuggle every now an again. I also smile getting out of a hot, steamy shower and seeing little hearts and hand prints on my mirror..and all of the surprises that come along the way..
- Music: from RB to Jazz.. I love almost all types of music.. great to sing, dance or set the "mood... I like chosing my own theme music, (EWF Serpintine Fire). Watching my daughter quitely sing while watching a local production of Guys and Dolls,, and playing "what instruments to you hear" when listening to Jazz on the radio....
- Food: I can be kinda picky when it comes to food, but I'm working on getting out of my comfort zone. I LOVE to cook.. if it involves a grill, a patio and plenty of beer/wine/margarita, I’m in.
- Finally, being in love: the memory of that special someone, when you are not together... holding hands while walking down a busy street, wrapping my arms around that special someone.. kisses.. ok, you get the drift.
Hopefully I’ve peeked your interest and at least made you smile today… So what the hell are you still doing here?? ?Get out side for crying out loud.. :) Smile and hope to hear from you soon

Meet someone special from United States. A genuine - loving - caring - humble - kind - giving gentleman - with a huge fierce heart - a wicked funny sense of humor and an "edge". I live a healthy lifestyle - am in good shape - eat right for the most part - exercise 6 days a week and live young at heart. I believe in - honesty - integrity - trust - communication - respect - being selfless and living each day like it was the last.
I like the beach, surfing, bike rides, the child-like freedom I get cruising in a hot rod with the radio on and wind in my hair. I'm not into the sloppy bar scene and prefer a nice dance club or open venue to check out a band. I certainly enjoy staying in and snuggling on the couch to take in a good movie as well. (YUMMY). I definitely have a chivalrous / romantic side to me as well and will shower a partner with love, passion, hugs, kisses, affection, flowers and little surprises just to name a few. Lucky you.
I'm practically an "Empty Nester" and my grown kids (14 and 17 years old) spend 87 percent of the time with their Mom which leaves me plenty of space to explore new connections. I have the resources to live for adventure and enjoy traveling.
Seeking a gal who possesses honesty - independence - kindness - gentleness - attractiveness and inner beauty. Easy to talk with - fun to be around and digs silly banter. A physically active girl who is athletically fit, eats right for the most part, looks / lives young at heart, has a healthy lifestyle, and has a bit of a wild side. Ready for some fun?
PS. To the point. I am looking to love and to be loved and am optimistic it will eventually find me when I least expect it. I am growing kinda' weary of this dating world (aaarrrggghhh) and would much rather prefer a monogamous relationship. I guess you can say I am a chivalrous hopeful romantic at heart.
Date a man from United States. I originally grew up in a town of about 20,000 people about an hour and a half outside of Chicago. I always looked forward to living in a nicer climate. I"ve been living here in the greatest climate in the U.S. since 97. As an only child, I"ve always been very independent. I left home upon graduation at 17 to join the Marine Corps. It didn't take long to figure out that I was getting out of The Marines at 21 to go to college.: ) One of my greatest military benefits was being able to visit about twenty different countries.I learned as much from that as I did with college. You can have all the book knowledge in the world, but if you dont get along with different types of people....you'll be at a disadvantage. My parents have been married for 55 years, so family stability is important to me. I'm an extrovert by nature who can strike up a conversation with anyone about any subject. One of my favorite subjects is music. I've played trumpet, drums, and spent a portion of my life as a DJ. I love seeing live bands and I go to The Coachella Music Festival every year. I have a great sense of humor and I'm quick on my feet.. My friends once dared me to go on stage at a comedy club we were at for an "open mike" contest. My joke took first...and it wasn't very clean. : ) I'm very neat, organized, and disciplined. Whenever people see my condo, they wrongly assume I must have a maid. Most mornings I'm at the gym by 5am doing some combination of weights, spinning, running, and stairmaster. I also started yoga last year and fell in love with it. If only I could get as flexable as the girls. I"m very prompt and never flake on people. I'm always early when meeting friends. In fact, they joke that I'm late when I arrive on time. I'm kind, loyal, honest, and straight forward. I love new experiences and trying new things....though I don't see myself jumping out of a plane anytime soon. I'm looking for a girl who shares at least some of these traits. She should be independent and comfortable in her own skin. A great laugh goes a long way too. : ) She should be intelligent, open minded, and have a positive attitude. Love of life, people and animals is a given. My hope in joining Match.com is to find a girlfriend. If that doesn't come to fruition, I'll hopefully at least make new friends as many of my closet friends are woman.
Meet a soulmate from United States. I am a down to earth and easy going. I come from a large Midwestern catholic family. I am a successful professional. I have never been married yet and i have no children yet. I would like to marry and have children when the right girl comes along for me. I love watching sports, movies and listening to music/concerts. I like museums and plays but have not attended many plays lately. I love traveling and adventure, i love the beach and fine dining as well as a barbecue with friends. I exercise regularly and maintain good personal hygiene. I am down to earth, humorous, interesting and generous. I would love to meet someone with my similar interests. Give me a try, you will like me. I am seeking a woman that is easy going, down to earth, classy, positive and attractive to me. I would hope she is a nice spirited person with a positive upbeat and fun attitude. I am ready to travel and enjoy life with the right woman soon and to have a family..... Who is ready ?
Date people from United States. Fun, hard working, adventurous...me too! I enjoy activities that are off the beaten path. Love the Chargers, but they frustrate the hell out of me. I'm hoping to meet & make some new friends. Would love to meet someone who is spontaneous, likes good conversation and enjoys having fun.
Meet people from Pacific Beach, United States. One of the questions they had here to help you write your profile was "Who or what makes you smile?" My friends would answer that with "EVERYTHING"! They tell me when I'm listening to a great band, playing a game, or just talking with friends, my smile and the amount of fun I'm having draws people in.
I'm new to the San Diego area, having recently moved from Lawrence, KS. Lawrence was recently rated one of the top 10 live music cities in the US, despite the fact it's a pretty small town. I miss all the choices I had there, and I'd like to find someone to explore the music here with. I don't just stand there and listen, either, I like to dance, and sometimes I even look like I know what I'm doing.
I love to entertain, hosting cookouts, meals, game nights, or whatever. I'm a fairly decent cook - when I travel I like to bring home recipes or at least ingredient lists, and try to recreate the flavors for my friends. Family and friends are important to me - which has been the hardest part of moving out here. I have a 19 year old daughter, who's living on her own back in KS, and I miss having the close contact with her that I've had.
I am enthusiastic about the things I enjoy, and invite others along - my core group of friends back home tell me they're falling apart because I'm not there to goad them into adventures, and because I've been the glue that holds a very diverse group together. I'm more of an instigator than an organizer though - organizing is what I do at work. When I'm off I like heading out with a general goal in mind and seeing how things turn out.
I have a professional side as well. I travel worldwide providing automation systems for shipping ports. Lately, I've spent a fair amount of time in Brazil, Colombia, and southern Mexico. I'm an engineer, though anything but a typical one. I've had a very diverse career, including a fair amount of work with artists and designers.
The woman I'm looking for is active and smart, has a wicked sense of humor, and is social without being a socialite. I've lived the last 18 years in what is primarily a college town, and I look and live a lot younger than I am, so my pictures tend to show me with younger people, but age is not a primary factor with me, although a young attitude is.
If I haven't piqued your interest by now, writing more would just bore you, so this is it. Hope to hear from you.
Date a soulmate from California, United States. I am a honest, sensitive, sincere,and respectful man who is looking for someone with the same qualities. I believe that I am above average in intelligence, and at times, rather humorous. I really enjoy being outdoors.I am looking for someone like me! Someone who is not selfish, says hello to strangers, enjoys their job, will try new things, intelligent conversation, laughter, and has time for me!
Not a big fan of winks. If you send an e mail, you will get a response.
If you didn't see it up top.....never been married, and no kids. It doesn't necessarily mean there is something "wrong" with me, it was just the way things work out, and easily explained why.
Body Type? This one threw me. I am 5'11' and weigh 160 pounds. What is that? My idea of athletic and fit is someone who looks like Mario Lopez. Slender is what i call marathon runners. I don't have six pack abs, and don't have a beer belly. I came up with the conclusion that i am slender. What do you think?
UPDATE: 5/7/12 I had surgery on my ankle, and am on crutches right now, but still very much available. :)
Cast supposed to come off on 7/24/12
Meet someone special from California, United States. I am an active, fun loving person with a sense of humor. I work hard but balance things out with lots of time off and a variety of activities. I like to get outside as much as possible so I surf, play tennis, bike, walk, garden, backpack, ski and whatever else gets me out.
I love to travel and have taken a few trips to Europe and Asia, but most of my trips are to wilderness areas in the U.S. to backpack or ski. I’m from Alaska originally, and get back there every summer.
I like to get out to listen to live music. For fun at home I play guitar and sing (poorly).
I’m looking for someone I have chemistry with that likes to laugh and try new things.
Date a man from Pacific Beach, United States. I am confident, open-minded, fun and secure seeking my sweetheart. I live a healthy lifestyle, have a great career and love to travel when I can. (Weekend getaways often) I'm not into the bar seen so I'm on here as an alternative way to meet someone very special. I run every morning on the bay to "tune in for the day"
and prefer someone that takes care of herself both physically and emotionally. Communication, honesty, humor, and a healthy lifestyle are important to me.
I'm not looking for someone perfect, just someone who is perfect for me.
I enjoy farmers markets, Independent films, black & white photography,interior design, art,cooking at home and going to restaurants.
My pics are recent. 4/12 and hope yours are too. Sorry, I won't respond without a picture. I am a caring, easy going guy with a big heart, I'm a gentleman that will open the door for you, am a good listener and fun to be with.
No Married women or fresh out of a relationship please! Thanks and good luck!
Meet men and women from United States. I am single,honest, loyal, hard-working, Dependable, kind, caring, happy, humorous, compassionate, homeowner that has a great job, I work hard and play hard.
I am closing my account at this time, but you can always contact me through my y % a % h % o % o # which has the same name as my match.account. I am passionate about my work / career, I am passionate about living a healthy life-style.
I am looking for somebody who doesn't take life too seriously, has the ability to laugh and have fun and enjoys many different activities. I also appreciate someone who is confident (but not arrogant) and can handle life's minor obstacles.
That is willingness to try new things, to be open minded, compassionate, tolerant, someone I can still inspire and motivate me, and most importantly, someone I can love.
As you can see from my pictures (all very recent), I am fortunate to look much younger than my chronological age (50 something). In fact, my most significant relationship partners have been years younger than me. I believe age is just a number and what counts is having the necessary energy and drive to enjoy life to its fullest, so it does not matter to me if you are younger or older...as long as you and I can share an active lifestyle, all is good.
Date someone special from United States. This is my second time on match after almost a year away. I didn't meet my match the first time but I'm hoping for better results this time around. My disclaimer: there's no box to check to let women know that I've been married twice before, 23 years total. Family is important to me, unfortunately they all live out of state, Arizona and Washington so it's just me in sunny southern California.
I usually know what I like when I see it, whether it's people, places or things. I'm not complicated, I'm very easy going, fun to be around, I like to have a good time. I'm also pretty tall, honest (seriously I'm a terrible liar), a bit of a smart a$$ and I've been told I'm handsome. I'd like to meet someone with a great smile and eyes to match, who's also fun to be around. I'm not looking for perfection but I think you have to be physically attracted to a person.
By the way, I have all my hair and I never got into the whole tattoo thing (not that there's anything wrong with that). I guess a guy has to start somewhere, right? What's next? Who knows?
