Date men and women from United States / California / Santa Barbara, 40 year old

Date a soulmate from United States. Passion! Why live life any other way?
Being compassionate and loyal are two traits that describe me and in turn, I look for in individuals. Selfless acts are priceless!
Life is a journey and the best part is you get to decide whether today is going to be a good day or a bad day. My journey has been an interesting one, as I'm sure many of you can relate. What an incredible ride!
There is nothing more important than family and good friends. There will be peaks and valleys as we all know and it's character that perseveres.
Whether spending time on a trail, around a fire ring or at the beach, there's no place I'd rather be, than the outdoors.
Humor is an important part of any relationship. If you can't laugh at yourself and with others, you're missing the boat completely.
Relationships are a two-way street. With honesty, compromise and communication, great things can be achieved.
I wish you luck in finding what you're looking for and when all else fails...smile.

Meet someone special from United States. I am a public figure and don't post photos. I will email photos upon request.
Looking for a woman with a kind heart, pretty smile, and curious intellect who is willing to explore new places, enjoy a blue mountain sky, listen to the crashing of the waves, hang ten, smell a mountain meadow after a morning rain, watch a shooting star, country dance, and ride a horse off into the sunset.

Date people from United States. I'm hardworking, caring, and a good listener. I have a healthy sense of humor, believe in finding humor in challenging situations. I am not afraid to laugh at others or be laughed at – life is too short!
Honesty is important and I will share my opinion when appropriate. If I make a promise, I'll keep it. If I be-friend you, I will never dishonor you. I stand behind things I believe in, but respect others' opinions. I can be independent, a dreamer, a realist, a bit mysterious, yet easy going.
I am definitely a people person and in my element entertaining friends or throwing a party for someone; but must also have some personal time/space to relax and contemplate. I have an inquiring mind and get great pleasure hearing different perspectives. I am always game for stimulating conversation or constructive debate.
I am an environmentalist, but I also love air conditioners, email, watching sporting events or attending a movie or concert. I'm enthusiastic, but not obnoxious or rude. I like nice dinners and drinking good wine, but just as content hiking in the mountains, playing at the beach, visiting a local winery, watching a movie or reading a good book. I love a good challenge, enjoy solving problems, but also find great comfort and satisfaction in the simple things in life.
I am a definite animal lover with a special affinity for dogs. I love to travel, yet there are so many places I still want to go and so many things I want to see!
I am looking for someone who shares many of the same traits I listed above. Honesty and a good sense of humor us a good start. An open mind is always a plus and the more confident a woman is with herself, the more attractive to me. I want to be with someone who can open my eyes to new experiences and make me want to be a better person.
My perfect match would accept me for me! She needs to understand that I don't hide my feelings very well and my best and worst quality may be my honesty! I am looking for an attractive, fun, emotionally-available, educated, honest, loving, caring, considerate woman who can bring out the best in me and cause me to smile.

Date a man from Santa Barbara, United States. Photo upon request. (See below)
I am living life one day at a time while planning for the future. I am always trying to be a better person. I believe we have to take care of ourselves so that we can help take care of others. I currently work in a somewhat conservative institution, so I am happy to provide a photo upon request, but would rather not post one here just yet. Don’t worry; I am considered by most a fairly attractive man, who does not look his age. I have a slender build, but well proportioned, I’ve been told. I have light brown hair, which used to have some red to it.
I would like to meet someone who I can consider my best friend and confidant, as well as my lover. In other words, I am interested in getting to know who you are and what you are about, and vise versa, so that we can grow together. I am a passionate man who believes that emotion is not a weakness, but a strength. I am looking for someone with whom I can share the all aspects of live, while still respecting each others independence. Honesty, open and direct communication and loyalty are very important traits in my book. Honesty may be painful at times, but it always leads to understanding and respect. Dishonesty, on the other hand, could cause irreparable damage to a relationship. It can be forgiven, but it cannot always be forgotten.
I enjoy spending time outdoors and would love to more often. I enjoy martial arts to keep fit and relieve stress; however, I am not fanatical about it. I read often in multiple languages and love to discuss almost anything on the intellectual side. I am currently finishing my Ph.D. in Spanish Lit. after a few year hiatus; however, I do not plan to leave Santa Barbara. I have few, but very close friends. Unfortunately, they don't all live in Santa Barbara. Nevertheless, this makes for a good reason to take a road trip. I also enjoy cooking for others, although I only do it for my son these days.
I enjoy spending time with my son, who I do take care of 50% of the time. I have an excellent relationship with my ex, so I am looking for a strong woman who understands how important this is, given that we are still raising a child together.
Lastly, I try to live a balanced life of work and fun, time alone and time with other. My son is the most important aspect of my life. So, for any relationship to be more than friendship you would need to be open to being a part of his life in the long run. Good luck and hope to hear from you if you're interested.

So it's been said, i don't really care if I am thought shallow (I know who I am) but appearance is important to me...my friends don't have to be attractive but my lover does. Call me greedy, I'd like both.
