Date men and women from United States / California / Seal Beach, 52 year old

Date someone special from California, United States. "Never make someone a priority when they just make you an option" Great quote!
Fun, Smart, Conversational, giving and more. Separated from an 16 year marriage but definitely on my path to a new chapter in my life. I am mentally and emotionally ready to move on - rebooting my life and thankful that it is taking place in Colorado. Originally born and raised in Colorado, so coming back to the mountains is like coming home again.
I'm not looking for a quick sexual relationship. Relationships start out with a foundation of chemistry and friendship - then we'll see what happens after that. I believe in 100% honesty. I expect the same. If the start is based on lies, then the relationship goes nowhere and is doomed to fail. (It's like building a building on bad soil or bad concrete, it's going to fail!!!)
I'm looking for someone who is intelligent, can carry on a conversation, who isn't afraid of questions (how else do you learn about someone else, become friends, save asking?) Someone who likes asking questions back!!! You ask a question, I'll answer it, and I expect the same - pretty simple really. NO head games, BS or trying to be what you aren't. Life is too short for games, unless it's cribbage or backgammon or dominoes kinds of games.
You need to like movies, good books, laughter, a dry sense of humor, and dare to step outside your comfort zone IN a good way of course! I believe the first three kisses don't count. The first two are awkward and you both are wondering if the fit is right, etc. etc. The third kiss is much improved. From there the sky's the limit.

Meet single man from California, United States. I'm jumping in with both feet. I'm single, not lonely but alone. I'm happy and love the simple joys of life, sunrises the beauty of the ocean and the mountains. I'm looking for a partner to enjoy life with. I want to travel as well as just enjoy each others company. I love to laugh and don't take many things too seriously. My kids are very important to me, but they're almost completely grown up and busy with their own lives. I want a well adjusted mature woman to spend time with. I'm an optimist and the glass is always half full or it's running over.
