Date men from United States / California / San Francisco, 65 year old

Date someone special from San Francisco, United States. I'm not one that talks about myself easily so please be patient with me if this comes off as awkward. My friends would likely describe me as very social with a private side, inquisitive, emotionally sound, creative, resourceful and loyal. One friend recently told me I was your basic nice guy with a slight edge. I'm not quite sure what that means. I'm an ex-jock that grew up playing several sports but the only one I still play regularly is tennis. I'm an upbeat positive type with a variety of interests. I've found that when the company is right, even the most mundane can be fun and exciting. Movies, theater, concerts, dinner, browsing bookstores, and with summer coming, picnics are all high on my list. I love being outside in nature, jaunts into the wild, although I'm urban to the core. I have a competitive nature, I work hard, play hard and relax easy. My Mother taught me to be a gentleman, my Father taught me to be a man. Animals and babies seem to like me so I guess that means they did a good job. I tend to travel light and have no previous relationship baggage. I appreciate subtlety over drama, am a romantic in word and deed and believe it's much more than isolated acts and gestures, it's a behavior. The lady I hope to meet is comfortable with who she is, inclined to think outside the box, has a healthy outlook, loves to smile and laugh, has a social conscience, is opinionated but respectful of opinions that differ from her's, has a creative imagination and knows the value of honor and dignity. She's open-minded, enjoys stimulating conversation and is able to express her feelings and opinions with ease. When she sees something she wants, she goes after it rather that waiting and hoping it will come to her.

Meet a soulmate from San Francisco, United States. NEW PICS POSTED JULY 2012!
I grew up in Chicago, but have been a Bay Area resident for many years. I spent many years living in the East Bay (Oakland Hills) but moved back to the City after my long marriage ended two years ago. Those who know me would describe me as smart, sincere, honest, enthusiastic, kind-hearted, thoughtful, loyal and generous. I think, like many men, I am a romantic. I want to fall in love and be loved in return. I am grateful for my two smart, beautiful, grown-up daughters. I have a great law career, but am looking to make more time for play and fun. I am active and have high energy but enjoy kicking back. I like travel, good food and drink, movies, sports, the outdoors, reading, feeling fit and healthy, and sharing ideas and laughter. I have an adventurous spirit. I want to meet new people and try new things. I seek love and companionship and the opportunity to share with friends and loved ones what life may bring. It's a great journey, but it's best when it's shared.

Date single man from San Francisco, United States. Old guy in years but not in heart. I have always worked. But now I've retired. I umpire baseball games to make extra money and to keep busy. Professional (R.N) from East Coast. Raised Catholic went to Catholic schools now cured of Catholicism and any "religion". That doesn't mean you can't be religious. Graduate UC Berkeley and UC S.F. Left home @ 18 to work in El Salvador. Was in the Navy/Marines at one point as a medic.
Still in shape, no illnesses, walk 4-5 miles several times a week (14 minute miles). Still can move around the baseball field with the high school and college kids.
I have noticed that there are those who worry about the "currenty seperated" designation. Well, I was never married to the mother of my children but we were together for 30 years. So now that we are apart, for years, I never considered it a divorce. But to make me more attractive(?) I will say divorced.
I'd like to meet someone who is interested in friendship leading to possible love and who understands that looking for a marriage partner takes time. She would be Asian or from the Islands preferably. That doesn't mean that is a limiting factor. For some reason I prefer smaller women. But I'm not small and it is not a big deal.
I don't care what her interests are. We can share and learn. Except if you're a religious person and you try to push your religion I have no problems with your beliefs. No Republican/conservative would work. I graduated from Berkeley.
I need someone who has fun and can relax and likes to spend time with the person they care about. Someone who can take away the lonliness that sometimes sets in. Especially when I see other couples.
Mostly, I like someone who is honest and not secretive and shares her life. And she can't be looking for a sugar daddy. My money is committed to my sons as long as they need help. I still have one son in an expensive college.
I'm not into extravagant "brand name" things and I hope she would not be too. I like a smart woman who shares her ideas and listens to my ideas too. As you can see I need someone who would look past any spelling errors that the computer may have made.
Thanks for reading. Hope to hear from you.

Meet a man from San Francisco, United States. I am semi-retired and enjoy exploring the California Coast in my 42' sailboat. I grew up in Southern New England and have always been in love with the ocean. I perform most of my ship’s maintenance and have fun figuring out how things work. I like tinkering with the boat as much as sailing her. I have a computer background so I’m a “technophile” and have designed and installed the shipboard navigation system myself. I am constantly adjusting and fine tuning my yacht for long range cruising with a safe comfort zone. Always preparing for that next big adventure. Looking for someone to share that adventure with me.

Date single man from California, United States. Pretty challenging this whole Internet personals business, eh? Shopping for men online is trickier than you thought.
Sorting through all those wordy profiles and wondering if those photos and bio bullets represent reality.
Tough to put me in your shopping cart. No longer a member and can't read your e-mails. My apologies. Moved to a companion site. OKCupid? New persona, Haliewa Joe.

Like to meet someone interested in travel, language, culture, conversation and current events.
Prefer a physically active person with a little tread wear, no visible piercings or tattoos and a whimsical nature.
For those of you who might be a bit fatigued by your search, I can be considered a diverting alternative to your tedious suitors who want to stroll hand in hand along shimmering sands, sit by an open fireplace and, with a sense of awkward desperation, attempt to become your soul mate...
Sardonic? Yes.
The point is that while we wait and hold out for that Perfect Match, we may deny ourselves the opportunity to meet others that can broaden and enrich our lives in ways we had not anticipated.
Serendipity…one of my favorite words.
Epilogue - My first Match date
I wore a white hat and my best Aloha shirt.
After some playful introductory banter, I said, "Let me ask what criteria you have in looking for men online? "
She adjusted her skirt, took a sip of her Mai Tai and said, "When I started out I had only three requirements: He couldn't be bald, he had to have a job and he had to own his own car."
"So, how did that work out?"
"Oh, I actually met someone I really liked,"she sighed, looking past me towards the beach.
"What happened?"
"It was fantastic until after the second date, I discovered he actually lived in his car..."

Meet a man from California, United States. I love to talk, ask questions, and feel in tune with my environment and those around me. I have been gifted athletically and understand the beauty of movement and endurance. My favorite athletic performance was a portion of a particular ballet. I laugh wholeheartedly and can burst out laughing in a theater if something strikes me as funny. I can laugh at myself and have plenty of material on that level with which to work. I am emotional and can cry at the sense of greatness, of people reaching beyond what they thought they could do and were. I am moved by the simple but wonderful things in life (The March of the Penguins)( a child reaching out to me)(playing with children) (flowers bursting from the soil)( the tendernes of the human soul) (The touch of the one you love). I love the antonyms and paradoxes of life and culture. I grew up in a land or forests, steams and lakes. I love to walk among the trees and be near water.

I am visual and love art and see figures, mostly human, in shadows, clouds, stone, trees and most other natural forms. I am patient, eternally optimistic, empathetic and affectionate. I need my space yet I need someone in my space and I want to share intimacy in as many of its facets that we can identify. I am a budding story teller and I try my best to hear and listen. I have a broad intellectual curiousity and love well written stories and histories. In my personal life I am present and seek a sense of awareness. I relish the moment, for I am aware of the fact that I will not be coming this particular way again. A part of each day is an adventutre for me. The adventure may be fleeting, the thoguht elevating or curious, the vision delightful but each day is unique and delightful. l and have learned that is better to experience the flow of a river than to try and control its flow. I have been able to recognize many of the gracious opportunities that have drifted my way and firmly believe that fortune and life favors the prepared mind and heart.
