Date men from United States / California / Upland, 45 year old

Date single man from Upland, United States. I've been with some of the most AMAZING women in my life and I am glad to have met them all...and I'm definitely looking forward to meeting some more great women and, perhaps, even that special ONE! I am open, able, and looking for something more...but only with the right WOMAN. I'm looking for a girl who has as much humor and confidence as I do! Could that be you?
It would be wonderful to meet someone interesting and with common interests, that we could enjoy spending time together, and just see where things go without pressure or expectations. If things work out, great, if not, that's fine too, everything happens for a reason. I can't define the type of relationship I want, but I know what I want regardless of how it's defined. I'm looking for a woman that can make me laugh, isn't afraid to speak her mind and likes doing the some of the same things for fun or otherwise. One who loves her family, has goals in life and is laid back and down to earth, not because she has to be but because she is and it comes out naturally. A woman who's not afraid to be herself and won't be fake. Confidence is sexy!
I'm not looking for someone "perfect." Someone intent on finding perfection is bound to be disappointed. But please, if you look like a Chihuahua or the like, it probably wouldn't workout for us...LoL :)
Are you genuine, passionate, sensual and love lots of affection? I'll pick you up when you're down but I don't want to have to carry you every step of the way. You have to be able to stand on your own two feet first, before you can fly with me.
I know from experience and scientifically-valid astrological textbooks (LoL) that certain character traits and behaviors are like signal flares of a drama-prone incompatible relationship. If a girl jumps on top of a bar to dance for an appreciative audience on our first date I know she will be a poor choice for a girlfriend but a great ride for a torrid fling.
To any girl I meet: when I strike up a conversation with you this is what is going through the back of my head:
Don't be that girl…
… who thinks diamonds are a better best friend than a dog
… who lost touch with her femininity
… who has given up on love
… who pretends she can play like a boy
… who flakes
… who knows what she wants a little too surely
… who is an attention whore
… who is practiced in the art of aloofness and indifference (that’s my job)
… who cannot handle teasing
… who has sexual hang ups
… who cannot take a sincere compliment
… who has lost her joie de vivre
… who doesn't understand that men and women complement, not compete with, each other
… who re-applies her make-up every 10 minutes
… with daddy issues
… who doesn't at least reach for the check
… who likes being a trophy a little too much
… who reads between every line
… who curses and flips the bird a lot
… who uses too much trendy slang
… who will accept flirting from other men while we are out on a date
… who mugs for invisible cameras
… who is externally validated
This may seem like an exhaustive, impossibly unrealistic list, and for some girls maybe it is, but compared to the list of demands I occasionally read on here from the sorts of women who'd be happier in love if they paid for it, I don't think I'm asking for much.
Lastly, I adore chatting with women about love and life and I have a soft spot for women that are not only gorgeous but have the intelligence to at least carry a fun conversation. I do understand that I am picky, but I figure...why not? I think I totally deserve someone great, don’t you? ;)

Meet a soulmate from Upland, United States. This is my first time so be gentle, ha! Let's see if I don't "spill too much"...
I'm the kind of guy who likes to enjoy life. I love havin' a good time and I'm very anti drama. I have as much fun at home with a bottle of wine or a movie as I do in a smokey dive. I enjoy drinking beers and shooting pool with friends as much as getting dressed to nines, and doing something epic. I'm looking for a girl who feels the same way. Someone who feels good in jeans, or a skirt. I do love a woman in heels and I give a great foot massage (there's gotta be a reward for looking good right?! I'm nothing if not a giver). I like most types of music. Grew up on rock, punk and power pop and I play in a swing band so I hope you like live music... I think I'm the right amount of funny, silly, playful, serious, deep, thoughtful, fun, caring, loving, sensitive, attentive, positive, wild, crazy, level headed, spontaneous, happy, and yet not narcissistic but confident! I admit to being flighty at times (I am a drummer after all) and sometimes spontaneous might turn into forgetful but I'm usually good at dates, times, and making the right occasions special. I give as good as I get, in all the right ways! I don't play games and I don't let others drag me down. I'm always willing to help, to a fault at times, but I would like to end the cycle of meeting "broken women." I guess I want to find a woman I could put on a pedastool but she should have one for me too, right?
I guess you'd say I'm kinda "retro" in my style, tastes, actions, and mannerisms. I'm polite, curtious, and chivalrous.
I just bought a great pre craftsman house that I am restoring to it's original beauty. Currently working on the bathroom and putting in a clawfoot tub and old school tile. Getting back into gardening (I never really had my own yard or fruit trees but I'm a quick study). I perform/attend a lot of car shows, festivals, and such so I'd hope you're into car shows, weekenders, and a guy with rhythm!
I've got a great job with the city of LA. It affords my fun and my vices; the commute blows but I make up for the lost time when I can. Pretty busy tho' with the commute, my union, school, and my music but I'm a very kind, curtious, caring, and attentive man... I'm just looking for someone to enjoy my life with, who enjoys spending time with me, and who I can enjoy being with.
Whatdya think, too much? Ha-ha!

Date a man from Upland, United States. I'm a mature and intelligent guy looking for adventure. I'd love to find someone who is at home in the library as they are on a motorcycle. I appreciate every day we have here on Earth and want to make the most of it!

Meet someone special from Upland, United States. If I give you a piece of my heart, you can guarantee it’s yours to keep. I don’t take commitments lightly and I’m here to find my best friend. I think true love is something magical, unexplainable, and special and should be nurtured and treasured once it’s established. I have a big heart and will do anything for anyone. Those that know me best will problem say my caring nature is my most defining characteristic.
I’m a true Californian at heart and love any time I can spend outdoors. Favorite activities are fishing and golfing, but I also enjoy a good camping trip. I love the mountains, the beach, and anywhere in between. I have had incredible experiences in the Sierras, Hawaii, Florida and Mexico and hope to travel more in the future. I would love to return to Hawaii with someone special and explore Europe together as well. Even though I eat on the go a lot, I actually like to do my own cooking whenever I have time for it.
My goal for coming here is to find my soul mate. The person I can’t imagine life without and who wants to combine two separate lives into one. I’m a big believer in chemistry and the connection that two people instantly feel when they are together. I’m looking for the person I click with on all levels and know that she’s the one for me even if I can’t explain why. In my opinion, that’s what true love is all about.
