Date men from United States / California / Venice, 58 year old

Date single man from United States. I want to have fun but I also need to connect. I am a great supportive listener and believe that partners listen to and support each other. I am in a great place in my life; a great job with more success than I've ever enjoyed, doing meaningful fullfilling work. I am in great physical shape doing activities I enjoy; yoga, hiking. I have't gone to a gym in decades; it feels too forced. I prefer to integrate physical activities I love into my lifestyle. I have two wonderful daughters both in their twenties that are the joy of ny life. I live in paradise and count myself as very lucky.
I want a partner that I can share all the wonderful things in my life and hers together. I love a woman who is affectionate, supportive, a good listener and we are both on each others' side. I am adept, confident and secure with a deep capacity to take care of, knowing that is a two way street for me. As our relationship deepens, you will look more and more rediantly beautiful to me. I love to have romance an integral part of a relationship; surprise you with flowers, a back massage, or just going that extra effort.
I love my work. I to to yoga regularly. I've played acoustic guitar for 30 years. I love movies and it's all balanced out with my love for motorcycles, having ridden for the past 30 years. I stay engaged in what's going on in the world, for example,I read the newspaper everyday. Traditional politics don't excite me but policy conversation do particulalrly about the local and national issues of the day. I love going to the movies and enjoy anything from action to drama to art house films.
I am truly a glass half full kind of guy; I am an optimist and when I focus, I'm confident that I can acheive anything. I need humor and occassionally overdo it with puns. I am a romantic.
I like hanging out, eating out, good movies with fresh hot popcorn (home or theater), a clean house, great bbq (which I am very good at) and holding hands. I tell the truth and try to live with honesty and integrity. I am very even tempured.
I like to hang out and love to go out for coffee and conversation. I treat those I'm with very well and like to think of myself as generous of spirit. You will find me authentic and of substance. By the time you reach your 50's you know what you want. I believe it is still important to stay open and responsive. That's why I won't narrowly define my ideal women; sure we need to share common interests but it's more about the qualities she has and a willingness- indeed desire- and commitment to really be on each others' side.
If two people have that, there is less need for your partner to fit some sort of ideal mold because they have the most important of quality of a relationship, mutual support.

Meet a soulmate from United States. Warm and compassionate by nature, my insight and creativity has helped to clearly define my priorities in life. I feel like I have found some contentment with my little place in this world... some good things come with age:) I am 62 btw, (most searches seem to end at 60). Thanks to good genes and a healthy lifestyle I look, feel, (and assumed by others to be) much younger. Photos are all within two years.
Although I consider myself to be a positive and optimistic person, I would add that there is a nonconformist side that tends to question conventional thought..(often with a sense of humor). Although I am not apposed to marriage I have not been technically married, two of my relationships have lasted longer than most with contracts. (Some assume having not been married has been a conscience decision, this is simply not true).
I have been some form of a role model to kids for most of my life thanks to relatives, friends, my business, teaching, and volunteer work. I have a very youthful lifestyle... I have always been athletic and enjoy yoga and surfing.
My continuous path of learning and growing has brought success and fulfillment to my life and the lives around me. I feel that this has enabled me to be a nice place to enjoy the moment with that special person in a lasting relationship.
I would describe an ideal women as authentic, open minded, communicative, passionate, and with a healthy curiosity. I am drawn to women that are independent, but not afraid of getting close. It is important that she has the ability to be warm and affectionate. I am slender and stay in good shape, and usually attracted to the same.
