Meet a soulmate from California, United States. I always try to be thoughtful, a gentleman whenever possible and not only a good son but I will always be nice, funny when the time is right, romantic (did I say nice?) at all times. I work hard and love my job, I get off at an early, enogh time to enjoy the afternoon with a nice walk or attend a local gathering with friends or co-workers. I enjoy spending my days off with my son, we fish, camp or just love hanging out together. I believe its time to share my thoughts, laughs and life with someone special, is it you?

Date men and women from California, United States. Well, hmmm... since you and I have made it this far in life's journey, maybe we can have a laugh or two together... So, if you have a moment, kindly follow me down this path -- Are you ambitious? Adventurous? Athletic, both physically AND mentally? Are you creative? Do you respect yourself AND the people around you? Do you have a sense of humor? Do you have AND appreciate a sarcastic wit? Do crashing waves and warm ocean breezes turn you on? Do cool hearts turn you off? Are trust and honesty important to you? Do you (still) believe in love? By answering these questions, you will know more about me and some of the qualities I value in a woman. Ah, wait! there's more...I have a well rounded mind, but a flat stomach - and I work hard at both. I look 39 (ha! so a few really kind but misguided people tell me); I feel 29 (so I misguidingly tell myself); and I play like I'm 9 (so the kids on the beach in need of a tour guide tell themselves). I'm confident, but not cocky - been humbled too many times for that. I'm secure in who I am. I'm a good listener. I appreciate the fine art of compromise. I like to intellectualize (is that a word?) and dig deep, but I also like to keep it simple (is that too complicated?). I like verbal sparring - so feel free to jump in at any time. I don't mind being teased...that's cool, but expect to get some good natured fun in return :) And, there has to be an attraction.This doesn't mean that you have to be Cosmo beautiful...you just have to be beautiful to me - inside, outside and all around: mind, body and soul. Also, I am a passionate, kind and loving man who likes to share. I actually enjoy holding hands, cuddling and playing footsie (both before and after...). And if you're the right one, I will constantly remind you how much I appreciate having you in my life...I hope that's ok...

Meet a man from California, United States. First up: my pics are like a fortnight old - we just did a photo shoot for the new company website...
Growing up around coal mines and chemical factories near Scotland, my hope was just to one day live next door to a less-smelly chemical factory... But I also had a dream of California and I’m happy to now live here after a 20 year layover in Washington DC. I've lived in the US for over 25 years but I realize that there is still a lot of English in me. That said, I have straight teeth, olive skin and I don't drink tea so I really could not stay in the UK.
I’d like to meet someone who either has young (or young-ish) kids. My son is central to my life, but I certainly have room for someone else and their kid(s) too.
I'm pretty much up for anything. Fun is mostly the people you're with.
And I’m not looking to be too demanding but I’d like to find someone who is happy with themselves and life in general. I'll be bringing same.

Date people from California, United States. My Idea of a perfect date is having day-old bagels in the parking lot of Quiznos and the 99 cent store. Or getting to know each other while playing chess at a city recreation center. I hate to be touched and I don't find anything the least bit funny. HOW CAN YOU DARE LAUGH when the world is so obviously going to hell and you should be preparing for the Rapture, rather than finding things humorous. Whoops, I got carried away, no pun intended. Just to let you know that I'm not all business all the time,, I sometimes break discipline and have some Ripple mixed with rootbeer, usually on a Tuesday morning while enjoying home shopping network. It's such a shame to waste those special moments without a soul-mate to share them with. I don't like cooking, eating out or traveling but if you like to sit on a folding chair while watching me wax my mini-van, then I'm you're man. I'm modest about my looks but people say I have a GREAT face for radio. Enough about me.
You. Yeah you. Can you be equally comfortable in a pair of overhauls as a Ross dress-for-less pant suit? Oh yeah, baby. Can you open a can or drive a car to the take-out window? Oh baby. Can you keep your pie-hole shut while I'm engaged in televised Nascar? OH baby!
On a cold rainy day there's nothing I like better than staying at home with my honey while she repairs the leaky roof of my double wide. On a bright beautiful beach day, there's nothing I like better than staying at home with my honey watching her mowing the lawn. My second home is a shopping cart. Other than it being rusted, it works as a mobile home or poor man's RV.
So, if I sound like your hunka-hunka dream man please call me and chat. The number I listed is one of the few remaining pay-phones in the area and is located inside of laundry mat where I work folding clothes for people.
Marital Status: Annulled
Kids: So far no-one has called me on father's day, so I guess not
Income: Hopefully some day.
Religion: Taliban
Body Type: People say I could double for "Fat Bastard" in Austin Powers but honestly I think they're just flattering me. Don't want to oversell myself here! :)
Favorite spots: I have a few suspicious ones but I'm going to the Center for Disease Control and Lower West side Free Clinic. (No worries, I'm on meds)
P.S. not currently a member . . . back to serendipity! Hope I made you Laugh!

Meet someone special from California, United States. am Puerto Rican, born and raised in NYC. An aircraft mechanic turned video production guru. It's work I enjoy and find to be a wonderful means of combining technical skills with artistic and musical expression that resides in me.
Those who know me say I am resourceful, witty, professional, spontaneous, supportive, clever, curious and courteous. BTW, I asked them…but only listed the good stuff! I don't have issues, idiosyncrasies, or become fussy about things. Quality friendships are of paramount importance to me so I do my best at nurturing them.
I’ve lived in SB a while and enjoy it as any other local. I like riding bike along the bluffs, salsa dancing, fishing, billiards, or even getting "decked out" for a nice evening. I keep fit by eating right and exercising a little… yea, just a little. I am good with my hands and clever when it comes to creating, so on a given afternoon I can be found designing or building something for fun – or for real.
I would be interested in hearing from a woman who has a unique balance of how her heart, mind and intuition guide her. A lady that believes her guy must reflect her most precious values. Someone who enjoys her work, has time to play, can relax at home, or even join in for a musical duet. What makes a special gem? For me, awareness, resiliency, poise, elegance, selectiveness; a lady who feels sensual, is blessed, fun and loving. I know...it’s a lot.
If you enjoy sunrises, crystal clear crescent moons, and the life you live between the two... feel free to contact me.
Bye for now...

I love to laugh and have fun. A smile is the window to your soul so I show my smile often. My guy must be able to laugh at himself and all of life's absurdities. If he makes me laugh, he'd capture my heart.
What kind of man am I looking for? He needs to be strong and confident. He has to believe in family and have a strong sense of what that means. I am turned off by smokers and heavy drinkers - sorry! He needs to take care of himself. Physically, I love a man with a big heart and strong arms to hold me.
I need a man who keeps a good balance between his own time and time with me.
Walks on the beach or watching the sunset are perfect ways to connect with my man. I want to know what makes him tick so I can give him what makes him happy. Someone who can do the same for me would gain a wonderful partnership.

Date someone special from Santa Barbara, United States. When I was 22 I bought an old 65 Plymouth Fury.Someone along the way had modified it for racing so it was really fast ,had a mean growl when you stepped on the gas,but it also had a lot of problems .One of the problems was an electrical short that seemed to act up on weekly basis ,leaving me stuck at the worst possible times.
To make my life even sweeter I was trying to get over my first broken heart,and felt the need to share my feelings about men with everyone else on the freeway, by displaying a huge sticker ,the size of a banner,that red" A woman without a man is like a fish without a bicycle."
One day as I was standing stuck on the side of the road,quite surprised, not understanding why guys wouldn't stop to offer assistance to a pretty girl,a semi truck finally pulled over.A very kind looking older man jumped out of the cab,and as he was tinkering around in the engine,we started talking.Chocking back tears I told him my sad story and complained that no one would even stop to help me. The man smiled and said " honey, get that stupid sticker off your back window and that thought out of your head.Don't you know there's someone special for everyone in this world , the secret is to just wait patiently.
He did get the car going and I did remove the offending sticker.
The Fury was sold eventually to a Mexican cab driver who took it across the border,fixed it up,reupholstered it in red velvet, and gave it a new life as a Tijuana taxi cab.
I got a new life too.Many years have passed since then. Now I am a successful business woman driving new cars but I still have a soft spot for the old beasts.
I am yet again following the old man's advice waiting patiently for a special one to come along.(and there are no offensive stickers on my vehicle)
I am down to earth, funny, youthful,energetic,creative.I am financially secure I own an established local business.
I like to paint,I enjoy art, music of all kinds ,I like to cook go out ,travel etc...
I like men who are positive,good with their hands have an occupation and like to go out and do things.
If I had a recipe for making my special guy,some of the ingredients (not all )would be like this:
A lot of smart
A little art
A lot of soul
A little dough
A dash of rough
A pinch of tough
A little funnypinch of silly
Brown sugar and spice may be quite nice
Ingredients may be substituted or recombined for a surprising new result

Meet a soulmate from Santa Barbara, United States. I am easy going, happy and independent. I enjoy being outdoors just as much as curling up with a good book and a glass of wine. I love spending time with family and friends but look forward to quiet time, too. I spent most of my youth traveling - a lot - and still love to explore new places as well as visit old favorites. I'm partial to warm climates and am definitely a water girl. I'm lucky in that I really enjoy my work and look forward to the challenges it brings, even after 21 years with the same company. But I leave my work at the office at the end of the day.
I have no musical talent whatsoever, but love listening to live music. I'd rather read than watch TV, but I'll cuddle up together and watch a movie. I'm an avid sailor, a voracious reader, and love a good game of backgammon. I used to camp a lot, but haven't in a while and would love to find someone who wants to go together. I'm a good sport and willing to try almost any activity...but I don't promise I'll be good at it! I enjoy walking along State St. just to see what's happening. I love to cook at home, as well as go out for a nice meal. If you'd like to cook for me - or prepare a meal together - that would be great! I adore watching sunrises and sunsets. I'm as happy getting up early on a weekend to get a jump on the day as I am to sleep in and see where the day takes me.
I try to laugh and enjoy life and would like to find someone who does too. Are you a gentleman who enjoys a good time with friends and family as much as a quiet evening for the two of us? Do you enjoy traveling and new experiences? Friendship, honesty, communication and a sense of humor are musts. If this sounds like you, I'd love to hear from you!
