Date men from United States / California / Seal Beach, 65 year old

Date a soulmate from Seal Beach, United States. Well, along the way in life, I've got Lotsa' Book-Learnin' and can be when necessary: logical/rational/dependable That's gotten me along ok in careers and education-- But ultimately I'm still a Bohemian, Artistic kid from Brooklyn at heart who loves creativity, shared private jokes, and the closeness that feels delicious when you're with the right person.
My favorite loves/values are:
WARMTH- Without this even the most beautiful gem is just a cold, shiny bauble;
SENSE OF HUMOR-Makes Good times GREATER and Bad Times.. well, not so bad -- maybe just lil' molehills afterall;
BRIGHTNESS/CREATIVITY: can be a wonderful magic carpet with which to explore the world (both OUTER and INNER…);
HONESTY: "de rigeur" to trust and be trusted .. Best when served with a generous side-order of Kindness and Understanding;
I love Great open Exchanges of ideas and feelings both in serious/profound times and hopefully even more so in our silliest of laugh-filled times. My Soul-mate is someone equally comfortable in either practical or silly, so we are able to shift gears from one to the other, being great partners when we need to be “practical”, and whenever possible, also partners in relishing being “foolish” together.
enjoy being with people who are eclectic/versatile, more than someone who is the richest or biggest star or the very best at any one narrow thingie. I've been as foolish things as TV comedy writer & reviewer of theater/ shows/ musicals/ dance and films. And also as mundane things as an engineer, stockbroker, CFO and business strategic planner.
As for my best friend/lover .. I value the mutual nourishing of a monogamous one-to-one relationship. We don't have to agree on everything and probably are better off not having exactly the same styles -- but similar life values and lotsa' sharing of each other's interests make us each feel lucky we found each other
MY Sought For MATE:
Smart, Cute and Cuddly is Delightful, But even more KIND, WARM & Understanding. An earthy woman who's still young at heart and has a great sense of humor and likes offbeat looks at what's funny and what's profound and preferably someone who can understand and get a kick out of both. A GREAT PARTNER IN LIFE in both super-times and trying-times is a treasure indeed. Let's travel near and far, and also make a comfortable home base.

Meet a man from Seal Beach, United States. I am willing to travel almost anywhere, attend almost any type of activity (concerts, plays, sports, movies, dinners, ...). I like to splurge on the finer things now and again but also like camping and the tent cabins in Yosemite. I can live simply but like spending time with family and friends. Just got my Medicare card and need to drop a few pounds, but am still working at a job I really like. I've been told I have a good sense of humor but I'm a bit reserved and prefer small groups over large gatherings.
I am a progressive with respect to politics, but a fiscal conservative (half Democrat, half Republican) which makes me a moderate independent.
My ideal match would be a career woman still working or retired who has a wide range of interests. She would enjoy my company, but have enough interests and friends to let me have some time alone for my projects, work or golf outings.
She would be a bit more organized than me, as I don't mind a bit of uncertainty. I can go on a 1 week trip with only a few nights reservations and see where the wind takes me.
Our lifestyle would be considered casual, but we would look really good when we dress up for a benefit dinner or concert. People who know us would feel comfortable stopping by for a visit without calling first, but wouldn't be surprised if we weren't home but off on an unscheduled adventure.
Life offers up many challenges, but we wouldn't be overly concerned with little things going wrong, seeing lifes hiccups as stories to tell rather than crises to be stressed over.
