Date people from California, United States. I’m an intelligent man with a quick wit and I certainly appreciate that in a woman. I’ve got oodles of education in both the sciences and arts/humanities. I can converse on a wide range of subjects (Jeopardy champion - a curiosity more than a boast) , and enjoy good conversation. I’m definitely liberal-leaning, politically, but am not intolerant. I like to cook and enjoy good wine and food. I’m a lifelong runner (not even close to being an elite runner) and I enjoy day hikes (don’t do camping). I don’t own a bicycle, but if I was so smitten, I would get one in order to ride with my sweetie. I also enjoy watching sports, although I’m far from a couch potato. I’m a multi-tasker and while I may have a game on the radio or tv, I’m probably doing two or three other things at the same time. I like reading, old movies (especially classic romantic comedies), art, classical and contemporary music (although nothing approaching a “snob”), the Giants, Tour de France, and so many other things.
The woman I hope to meet would be smart, athletic, feminine and have a feeling for the arts.
Meet men and women from California, United States. I am very lucky to have had incredible experiences as a musician and mother. After college I joined the Peace Corps and stayed in Latin America for 14 years. I taught and played flute in an orchestra in Costa Rica. My daughter and son were born there. We eventually moved to the Amazon basin in Peru where we lived for a few years before coming to the US. We also lived and cruised on a sailboat for a year. My children and I have lived in the Bay Area off and on since 1987.
I love adventures of different kinds. Traveling can be wonderful but exploring the beauty of silence, a touch, a simple smile or being at home with people I love makes me very happy. Spontaneity seems to be part of my nature, but I am also pretty practical and quiet. I am profoundly moved by beautiful music. Playing my flute with other musicians can be exhilarating for me. I prefer small gatherings over big parties. I've always enjoyed playing games with friends. I haven't danced much, but I'd love to learn.
I have been a special education teacher for twelve years and have a passion for my job.
I'd love to explore more of the beautiful western US with someone. I'm open to trying new things. I thrive on intellectual stimulation. I'd like to develop a long-lasting relationship based on caring, affection and good communication.
Date a soulmate from California, United States. Hi
I'm still looking for a soul mate! My goal is to love again and meet the right man. I know that we have to try and try again and not give up on finding the right person. Hope springs eternal. I know he's out there!
Looking for a guy who wants to share his life with mine.
I just want to say that just physical, although important will not stand up to a life time of giving and taking. There has to be more.
Well, I like a man with an artistic creative side. A man who brings humor to everyday life with a sense of adventure. Always together against this difficult world and baring the burden of life together as one. Be two responsible adults with mutual respect for the other.
I have a sense of humor and I have a need to have humor in my life. I like to laugh at a funny man!(With him and not at him of course!)
I am also a hopeless romantic and wish for my guy to be that as well but let me say that I love a bouquet of flowers on my birthday.
A physically fit guy who loves hiking, sailing, dogs, cats, horses, antique hunting, traveling anywhere for fun, viewing new art or just staying at home and cooking a nice dinner. I am a gourmet cook and have been for many years. I like the ritual of taking the time to sit down to a well prepared meal for some lucky guy.
I'm looking for a simple life to share. No complications brought in from a disappointing past history; I don't like being a Therapist. I know this is a difficult expectation and maybe impossible for some but I can always hope and again hope springs eternal.
I'm very interested in life and I'm willing to continue to search for my Mr. Goodguy and find happiness. For me, I want to share the things that are worth doing in life and not waste with what little time we have, arguing over insignificant everyday problems; I want to use our precious time to share love and life with each other. But I am a realist and know that everyone has problems in their life and I would certainly be there to share any and all of what life has dealt out to either of us. If you understand any of what I just said then please let's get together and find out if it will work and go from there.
I am not a woman that expects perfection in any man but a woman searching for a man who shares our own imperfections together with an understanding heart that is filled with mutual love. No one is perfect.
Life can be fun with the right person and you will never find that person if you don't take a chance so take that chance and maybe you'll find paradise on earth and If not, your that much wiser.
'Luck affects everything; let your hook always be cast. In the stream of life where you least expect it, there will be a fish.'
Ovid (1st century B.C.)
Meet people from California, United States. I have recently moved to Sonoma County and would love to meet someone interesting. I'm quirky, loyal, honest, funny and compassionate. I love the ocean, dancing, swimming and laughing. I love to cook and am interested in living fully. My children are grown and I have just retired as Executive Director of a non-profit in Seattle. I am looking forward to this next part of my life and thought it might be fun to share it with a man. I have wonderful friends and great children. Though I am not sure exactly who I am looking for, I assume I will know him when I meet him. I do know I want someone interesting, funny, with similar values who sees the beauty in life. I care about others and it is important to me to make a difference in the world. Life is good.
