Date someone special from Petaluma, United States. First is every woman on this site so perfect? Is everything in your life really so wonderful and copacetic that you just think it might be “nice” to share it with the “right man”? C’mon you have to be just a little tweaked to be here. I am! To define “tweaked” within this context I would simply say that all is not right in the world of love. You've gone through a divorce or worse become widowed and now looking to enter the search for a "new" soul mate. You don't come away from either scenario unscathed or at least it is rare. How do you go from zero to a relationship from emails profiles and pictures?
However, life goes on and we find ourselves delving into this online dating scene. Can we call it a scene? It is a bit flat, (one dimensional), and it certainly does not engage our senses, but, I will continue the quest for a significant other in my life here and elsewhere, because I am ready.
I am so ready to experience again the warmth of your smile, smell of your hair, touch of your skin, sound of your laughter and taste of your lips. Yes I want all of my senses engaged again! With someone I can fall in love with and who makes me a little nervous. Why? To fall in love you have to let your guard down. With us later in life, we have become battle hardened. That is what has gotten us through life’s challenges and helped us to become successful.
Can you let yourself become vulnerable enough to feel that unreasonable need for another? Its time! Now or never! It is what we need to get past the early little bumps and bruises of getting to know each other and then we are hopefully experiencing the deeper love that can only come with time and trust.
So we start this off with pictures, profiles and hopefully your first email to me, then we see!!

Meet single man from Petaluma, United States. I am a gentleman and I enjoy doing gentlemanly things (open doors, pull out chairs, walk on the outside of the sidewalk,...buy flowers and gifts, just call to say hi,...take out the trash, and of course put the toilet seat down, to name a few). I like entertaining (I have a great group of family, friends, and neighbors....I love to BBQ), traveling (from weekend getaways, cruises, taking my motor home to the coast, to whatever), attending sporting events, working around my home (in which I take great pride), and believe it or not going shopping.
I am a native Northern Californian and have lived in Petaluma for the past 24 years. I am financially sound/responsible and live a healthy lifestyle. I am retired now but Environmental Safety and Health was my career field. In addition, I am a Certified Life Coach and have studied the Enneagram of Personality extensively.(I am a Type 9 Mediator/Peacekeeper, ENFJ).
Integrity, honesty, and authentic communication are high priorities in my life. I am looking for a relationship based on the principles of "Real Love" that will hopefully turn into a long term exclusive relationship/partnership. I am looking for a woman who has a nice smile, kind eyes, emotional maturity, intelligence, sense of humor, and takes pride in her appearance. I subscribe to the notion that it is a wise man who values a woman with whom he can really communicate. Thanks for your time and interest...Cheers!...All photos taken in 2009/10.

Date a soulmate from Petaluma, United States. If you are looking for that "hard bodied babe", keep on looking. I am totally down to earth do not expect the man of my dreams to have a 6-pack. Let's be real; are you looking for a "fling" or a long time partner/friend, one who thinks you and what you have to say is important? I want to learn new things with my partner. I know I have to post a newer photo; that's coming.
I want quality time doing what we both enjoy; movies, dinner (in or out) gardening, bar-b-q with friends family, figuring it out along the way. I'm pretty laid back; taking care of myself since widowed. I'm love being social, talking to people, learning about people, listening to people. My two grown children grandson are very important in my life and we must share time with our children/if you have child/children
I don't have a book to write about myself; I don't feel the need to. I am very straight forward and honest. Life is just too short to be otherwise.I was born in Montana and spent my childhood there. I went to an orphanage during my later years of schooling. I have good structure in my life because of that, and my upbringing; of this I am sure.
Travel is high on my "bucket list". There is so much to see in the United States, but I want to travel to different countries too. My trip to Italy in 2009 was so perfect. I've been to Germany (have relatives there) not too anxious to go back. Ireland is hot on my list to visit, an Alaskan cruise, Greece and oh yes......Rome as we didn't get there in 2009.
I don't salsa, I don't golf, I don't snow ski or water ski any longer, I don't surf, I don't want to climb Mt. Everest. Heavens, I'm 62! I do have a big heart, with a special place in my heart for the elderly, animals & people not as fortunate as I am; I like to volunteer within my community.
