Date single man from United States. My passions has been my kids (I have two great ones), but they are young adults now and don’t need (or want) my direct involvement. As a result, I find I have more time to enjoy my other interests in the wild outdoors, and discovery. When I can, I enjoy scuba diving, camping by a mountain stream or the ocean, or rock climbing (the easy stuff). Exploring tidal pools or just listening to the pounding surf, brings me great pleasure. I enjoy tinkering around the house and fixing things, and sometimes they even work after I’m done with them. I’m not half bad when it comes to square dancing, but watch your toes if it is some other forms of dancing. Pets have always been members of my family, along with the chaos and responsibility they bring. I love to laugh, especially at myself and the situation I find myself in.
I dive in both warm and cold marine environments, which has allowed me to visit some spectacular locations (Belize, Fiji, Caymans, and Monterey). I would want a future partner to enjoy this sport too, and accompany me as a dive buddy to additional local and exotic locations.
I look forward to sharing the warmth of a campfire, snuggled in blankets and each others arms, sipping some wine or hot coco and absorbing in all the sight and sounds around us and our quite conversations, or the chill in the morning as we watch the sun creep up into the sky and we embark on a the day of exploring and discovery, absorbing in all of nature around us and each other.
I also relish in the prospect of sharing the daily routine of life, the frustrations of keeping a house and a job or putting up with a daily commute. But sprinkled on top of all of that chaos would be the warmth and laughter of a loving relationship, and partner to grow and grow old with.
I can be silly and serious, driven and lazy, wise and naive, compassionate and surprisingly indifferent, but I am always true to those I love and care for.
Meet someone special from United States. OK, how about a younger Sean Connery instead (well, only the voice and the accent....)? OK, FINE.... read the rest of my profile and receive a free bag of BBQ potato chips on our first date!
I am looking for a woman whose spontaneity and spirit will complement mine to create a synergistic union. Having a positive outlook on life with a good mixture of being extroverted and introverted are a plus. The 3 qualities I look for in a woman are a good heart, intelligence, and a good sense of humor. I am a very giving person and want the same in return. I treat others as I would like them to treat me, with integrity, thoughtfulness and honesty. Displays of affection, tenderness, and romance come naturally to me. Most importantly, we should share similar value systems and be intellectually and emotionally compatible. My ideal woman would want to be with me, rather than need to be with me. I have been told that I have a wicked sense of humor and a quick wit.......
I love to cook and entertain and also have an expansive wine collection (999 bottles and growing)! Would you like to help me drink some of it? I love to travel, and would love to find that special person to share the world with. All three of my children have graduated from college and are adding value to society. What a great feeling!
I eat healthy most of the time but will also enjoy savoring a special dessert with you (and sometimes without you) on occasion! I've been a work-a-holic for most of my life, so lately, I have been very diligent in finding more balance to enjoy life to its fullest. I have been the CFO of a few publicly traded companies and tech start ups that have demanded much of my time, but I'm now making time to see more of the world and be with people who are special in my life. I am flattered that most people think that I am younger than my numerical age. I am diligent about taking care of myself, as this will allow me to be here for those special ones in my life. Sadly, I've had too many friends who have had health setbacks lately and that has helped me to focus more on the important things in life, such as friends, family, and to live life now and to enjoy each day...are you that special person that is missing in my life?
Full disclosure footnote! 90% of my photos were taken within the past year, the beard is history, and the good news is that I am over 10 pounds lighter! I recently adjusted my diet and it really has paid off! Thanks for the read….Good luck to you in your search! :)
Date a man from United States. I am a conservative individual. I enjoy going to interesting locations, museums, avaiation and military events. I like technology related subjects. I also enjoy the finer things in life, for example dinning out at four and five star restaurants. driving and owning exotic sports cars, etc...
I look for someone who would enjoy sharing my interest as well as I would enjoy sharing their interset. But also allowing each other the freedom to do their own thing. A perfet relationship is where two individuals can look at the same thing and both are attracted to it without saying anything.
Meet a soulmate from United States. So, just what makes me unconventional? That's a tough question to answer, but I'll do my best. I have enough self-confidence to have strong opinions. I'm a creature of logic, and I use my intellect to guide me. I don't subscribe to the conventional wisdom, and I don't believe what the experts say, just because they say it. I am not afraid to speak up for what I believe is right, and justice is important to me. I am not stuck up, however. I will kindly listen to the opinions of others, and change my mind easily if presented with evidence that I am wrong. Sometimes I will be the most dressed-up guy in the room; at other times the most casual. I might go to bed at 9 pm or stay up until 2 am; anything goes. And I may decide to go on a trip to the far reaches of the world, on the spur of the moment.
So, what are the things that are really important in my life? My two daughters, of course. (They are grown and no longer live with me.) Music is a really big thing. I have been a "rock & roller" from way back, but any music will do. Travel & photography is a big one, and I plan on doing a lot more of that in the future. I have been married and divorced once. That marriage was filled with drama, and I don't want tension like that in my life again. Everyone who knows me will tell you that the "real me" is very calm, and that I tend to be calming to those around me. My goal is to find a kind and like-minded lady who is also relaxed, and doesn't obsess over the little things; someone who is "clicked into" what is really important in life; and someone whom I can take care of and who will take care of me.
In summary, I have always been a bit of a rebel, a little "off the wall," and enjoy doing crazy things, going to unusual places, or simply doing something new. On the other hand, I am well-established and confident in my position, both personally and professionally. I am a dentist with my own practice, but the times I live for, are away from my work. I consider myself well-spoken and appreciate the company of a woman who is likewise capable of conversation on a variety of subjects, and interested in the news of the day. I have a tender, affectionate, and nurturing side as well, and would appreciate the same in a partner. I am also a man of caring, honesty, and integrity, and seek a lady who values those traits. My ideal would be to find someone like myself, who is a curious mix of sophistication and salt-of-the-earth ... a lady who could feel equally at home attending an art exhibition or going to an upscale restaurant, while still enjoying a bike ride, a long walk, or perhaps a picnic and a day at the beach. She should "dress-up well," but also enjoy wearing jeans on the weekend. I am an optimist at heart. I feel that the world is full of wondrous things to see and do, and I want to take part in them all. You may be "the one" if you are secure in yourself, and have a positive, fun-loving, and affectionate outlook on life!
