Date men from United States / California / Sherman Oaks, 63 year old

Date single man from United States. This is not easy for me because I don't particulaily like talking about myself and my preference is to not write anything about me. I'm a father first to a wonderful son who is 24 years old and surprises me with somethhing almost daily. He works with me in the company I started when he was just born. He has taken a serious interest in the business this past year, which couldn't make me happier or prouder of him. Being a good father was wonderfully difficult, trying, frustrating, fantastic, hard and rewarding experience simultaniously. I wouldn't change it for anything.
I love being in business and all of the rewards, difficulties and challanges that come with it. I look forwared to getting to work everyday.
I'm originally from Connecticut and came out west on vacation in January 1975. I fell in love with the weather and I've been in California ever since. I enjoy going to restaurants and finding new places and different foods. I'm looking for my soul mate, best fiend, lover and cohort to do whatever we enjoy doing together.

Meet a man from United States. Two women are walking down the street, talking about their dating experiences and one of them stops and says, "ya know, there are just a few things I need to change about him before I accept him the way he is"

Wow! this on-line shopping experience is way tougher than it looks! I'm thinking of offering frequent view discounts and coupons just to get some attention....in fact, if you write in the next ten minutes, I'll double the order...now it's me AND my dog....no separate shipping and handling...in fact, I never charge for handling :)
Seriously, I am an extremely happy, very fit and healthy, enthusiastic, thoughtful and kind-hearted, positive thinking, in love with life kinda old-school gentleman, served open-faced in a spinach wrap...sorry, no fries or soda. Each new day presents yet another golden opportunity to be thankful for and appreciate the wonderment of our existence; to discover and enjoy the abundance of humor that surrounds us; to gain and sustain higher levels of inner peace, contentment, satisfaction and fulfillment that can often come when efforts are made to assist others who are less fortunate; to experience something new or refine and feed the passions that help to define who we are as totally unique, one of a kind individuals....
.
My family and great friends are all considered truly precious gifts. I am deeply loyal to all commitments made and always attempt to treat those I encounter as well or better than I would have them treat me. Being trustworthy and brutally honest are paramount traits-even looking exactly like the pictures posted (for better or worse)..no disguises, hence no surprises....having never felt the need to pretend to be anyone or anything other than who I actually am....true happiness and contentment are feelings that quickly become very transparent and are easily noted by others. I would hope that you also look just like you do in your pictures and have accurately described yourself as well
With all due respect for a woman's independence, I hope you will allow me the pleasure of opening your door and seating you before me....because that is a long-ingrained sign of my respect for women of all ages.
My career of teaching severely challenged children spanned 36 years and I have also taught over 2000 men, women and children how to play and appreciate the fine game of tennis. Those days are past and pleasure is now being found while partaking in a wide variety of sports and workouts, many creative ventures, volunteer work, music appreciation, concerts, antique and collectible hunting, frequent and abundant laughter, gardening, home construction projects, classic car and antique furniture restorations, car shows and swap meets, top-down cruises and silent reflection while writing and sharing poetry.
I carry a passion for assisting men, women and children who are homeless, as well as for those in uniform returning home from military service....volunteering time on projects to raise funds and awareness of their needs is a deeply personal effort...a reflection of gratitude.... in recognition of the many blessings I have been given.
This involvement on Match is a genuine effort to discover ONE WOMAN to share time and tales, fun and adventure, song and dance, laughter and that beautiful silence present when two loving friends are ....together
If you feel that it might be special for us to connect, please feel welcome to say hello.....and thank you for your time.....if at some point I do happen to invite you to breakfast, PLEASE do not assume I am a cereal dater

Date single man from Sherman Oaks, United States. Easygoing guy with an easy smile.
Life can be extremely complicated if we make it that way. I mostly choose to not do so.
KCRW, all things Japanese, vastly eclectic music, spicy food, Maui, freshly chopped herbs, white chocolate, running the Ray Miller Trail at La Jolla Canyon, a beautiful smile-- these are some of the things that make me happy.
I eat right and exercise daily as a way of life. I especially love running on mountain trails-- a good long run on a beautiful day, out in nature, past creatures and scenery, makes the day just right.
I'm solo these days, but life's too short: it's time to live life to the fullest.
I'd like to meet someone active and happy; someone who enjoys the existential pleasure of an intense workout, as well as good times with friends; someone sane and smart, appreciative and grateful. I'd like to meet a great companion.

Meet a man from Sherman Oaks, United States. I am a youthful 62-year-old Adult Education teacher in the field of English as a Second Language, I have a generally upbeat personality and a pretty good sense of humor. I am medium in frame and height, not tall but not short. The virtue I have that gives me a lot of self confidence is my ability to put someone at ease, even a person I've just met. Also, I have a lot of integrity. I enjoy going to museums or art galleries on the weekends, in addition to playing badminton and squash when I can. Also I really love listening to jazz, both at home and at live clubs. I like going to see live drama, comedy acts, and any top-notch magic shows. Care to join me sometime? I'm interested in meeting a friendly, upbeat lady, who is smart and personable. She can be either talkative or quiet, as long as she puts me at ease. I'm especially attracted to someone who likes to smile and laugh. If she also is an aficionado of fine food (and is a good cook :-), then all the better. I suppose the most important thing is that she be fun and interesting to talk with and be with.
