Date men from United States / California / Salida, 55 year old

Date someone special from Salida, United States. I'm a guy who's found himself in his fifties, only to realize that he's let way too much of life pass him by. Looking for a dear friend to share good times with. I've spent most of my adult life "doing the deal", as it were, working hard at building a future. Time to live more for today.

Meet single man from Salida, United States. I'm straight forward and honest. I tell it like it is and some people don't like it; I'm not going to be a phony. I like to work out and stay fit, also I hate to bicker and fight over money, there is more to life that money! I hate woman that drink too much and/or have head problems,; also I would like to be with a woman that is healthy and active, and a non smoker is important to me. Motorcycle riding is my life and it would be cool if I met someone that likes it as much as me that she would buy her own Harley and ride with me forever! I like women that are honest, loyal, kind and not know it alls. I like women that think straight under pressure and don't freak out all the time or get whiny.

Date a soulmate from Salida, United States. Writing about what you really want is harder than all the idealistic stuff most of us write. That said, I'm an active man who sits, nearly daily, by the river listening. I listen to music every day. I've not had a perfect life, and thus have learned deeper than I probably desired - originally. I benefit from that wisdom greatly.
I'm hoping to find that special woman I can be with for hours and it seems minutes. Someone who can really share their world with me, and I mine, and gets a giggle when I do something dumb or silly. (And I will.) Beauty's great but if it comes out of bottle, or from some sort of surgery we're not likely to be together long. And, please, please if you're inclined at constant judgement and the expression of such analysis pass me by. By all means be honest, but don't make the fact I'm not perfect a constant part of your thinking or conversation. Guess what my dear, neither are you. Let's just be humans and treat each other with the kindness and respect we each deserve. Also, I'm not a member of a religion.
I've learned that as much as it seems a good idea at the time, a square peg just doesn't fit a round hole. That's cool. I won't be living in a city for a while, if ever, as life in the mountains is where my heart is, and where I feel closer to God. And, where he, she, it feels closer to me.
Also, if you think our children are dying in war for a good cause, that's a pity. I'm sorry.
I've chunked a lot of parameters, thoughts and realities here only in the attempt at honesty. Hope you can appreciate that. If you're interested be brave, and let me know. I don't, as you probably don't, respond to photo-less communications. I know I'm not a pretty boy but at least you can see me.
Finally, I'm a passionate writer whose job it is to find fun. Join me.
See you out there.
