Date a man from Colorado, United States. My membership expires 8/8/12 Don't think I will be on here after that....So I guess you could call this a "fire sale"...lol
I wish all of you who are looking the greatest success in finding that special someone in your life.
Not sure about the internet thing, but what the hell...lol. I have learned a lot about myself being single again, and hopefully I am becoming a better person each and every day. One thing I have learned is that life is too short not to enjoy every minute and we should all take time to let the special people in our lives know how much they mean to us. My outlook is that anyone who touches your life in a positive way should know how much they are appreciated. Not easy to remember to do, but very important and fun to give those good feelings when the opportunity comes about.
I am looking for a partner, soulmate, lover and friend. I am very loyal and giving and am looking for the same in a relationship. I am a bit of a smart a**, and seem to have the ability to make those around me laugh.
I want a person to share my life with, to have passion, love, trust and fun. I am a romantic at heart and look forward to finding that person I can grow old with. Life is a blessing, but even more blessed when shared with someone special.
So if you like to laugh and have a good heart, I would love to hear from you.

Date someone special from Colorado, United States. Hi! Thanks for dropping by. My name's Dave, and I'm looking forward to having fun, making new friends, dating, and eventually having a relationship when the person and time is right. I enjoy meeting new people, and I hope to have fun along the way!
A little about me:
I'm a working professional in a technical/scientific field, . I stay active. I enjoy exercise, swimming, volleyball, hiking, and much more. In my spare time I play drums with some friends in a band... it's a wonderful way to relieve stress, and do something creative. I also enjoy working on projects around the house and yard. For dates I like going out for coffee, dining out, and especially dancing and listening to live music! I like exploring new places and taking road trips.
Socially, if being at a party were like being in a band, I would be, well, the drummer, and not the lead singer. :) I don't have the gift of gab, but I do enjoy good conversation, especially with new people. I have a dry, sometimes dorky sense of humor, and I love to laugh.
I'm not religous, but I did grow up that way, and like to think that I retained the importance of values like honesty, responsibility, compassion, and family, as well as respect for other people's beliefs.
Cheers!

Date people from Colorado, United States. Talking about myself is not easy. I usually let my actions and personality speak for me. I can tell you that i wear my heart on my sleeve and have had it knocked off and kicked but i always pick it up and put it back and learn. But anyways im a fun loving guy and like adventure and nature. I would give the shirt off of my back for friends and family. March 2012 i visited My friends in Colorado Springs and spent everyday in the mountains and im in love! I have my house on the market in NY and hope to be a resident of your beautiful state before fall. Oops just read it says short description.. well reply if you wish. Im a 25 year veteran in Law Enforcement currently working narcotics (thus the shaved head) but want to move on and start a new job and life. Plus i want my retirement party.... lol. I would just like someone in my life who is honest and
sincere and if we became more serious they wouldnt cheat. I treat others as i would like to be treated. Ok i must be nearing the end by now.... ;) Ps i think i can still grow head hair... ive just been bald by choice for seven years... ya know the big bad azz look...lol OK, now that I have been on here a bit i feel compelled to add a bit more, if you are from Ghana Africa and are trying to scam my email blah blah dont bother it is obvious who you are and im not an idiot and i will report your IP so go away, Ive interrogated and interviewed the best and you wont get far! Also just to throw in some other stuff because when my three month subscription is up I will not renew. Im tooting my own horn here so here I go, Ive been on the SWAT team for 20 years as breach (obviously) and a sniper for the past fifteen years. Ive spent 13 years on the scuba dive recovery team (yes for dead drowning victims). Ive been inner department assigned to the ATF for two years and have had top secret clearance and have been all over the eastern coast with them, Ive spent the last 7 years in the narcotics division which is the departement I wanted 25 years ago. Ive bought from the worst of the worst, including guns, drugs of any and all kinds and interrogated the worst of the worst in the drug world and can get them to talk and work on their level but I do clean up nice. I am a genuine person and can adopt to what life deals. But i want to leave this all and start a new life, the life I was meant to live and that is seeing all the world has to offer and I found that in Colorado. The mountains are my goal now and I will succeed in getting there and seeing all the beauty and good things in life with or without that special person, matters not to me. Well thought I would update real quick! No more Ghana Africa peeps bugging me so that comment worked... House still hasnt sold so Im still stuck here in NY. Going to Sturgis 8/3 and staying at the Buffalo Chip, first time there and it should be a blast. Take care all who made it this far :D
Meet men and women from Colorado, United States. Okay, first things first, I’m still new to the Denver area, having moved out here from the DC area in March 2011. I moved to be closer to a great bunch of friends, and I’ve quickly adopted the more active Colorado lifestyle, including competing in my first triathlon in September 2011.
Next, I LOVE DOGS. Preferably big dogs. The ones you can wrestle with – like German Shepherds, Goldens & Newfies. I actually love cats too, dogs are just more giving. True unconditional love - the kind you feel with children. Time with my friends' or cousins’ kids always brings a smile to my face. I can spend hours playing with them or watching them play.
Time with family & friends is great. Social & extroverted, I enjoy meeting new people, although I need quiet time to myself. I try to surround myself with positive, optimistic people. Although I abhor bumper stickers, the one that says “Mean People Suck” sums it up well.
Are you happy with your life? Isn’t everyone on Match? I’m grateful for incredible parents, being close to my relatives, childhood friends who are still there for me, great health, not worrying about money, a passion that allows for real balance and contribution, being mistaken for being 5 - 10 years younger than I am.
That being said, being happy doesn’t mean being content. If we’re not improving, we’re declining. There’s no standing still. I’m constantly striving to improve in most areas of my life. Improve my health, my fitness, my relationships, my work/life balance (actually, I’m working on moving to increase imbalance here – more life & passion, less work, more income). Most importantly, improve my relationship with my life partner (by finding her); otherwise I wouldn’t be on Match.
Do you love active travel? Like breaking a sweat hiking the Inca Trail, playing sports at Club Med & meeting great people, or driving & hiking around Newfoundland. Do you like experiencing new countries for the vivid memories? Favorites include swimming with a sea turtle in the Galapagos, watching the sunrise through the Sun Gate overlooking Machu Picchu & racing back to climb Waynu Picchu for the incredible views in the same morning, and eating bangers and mash with a pint of Guinness in the Golden Lion Pub aboard QM2. What are your favorites? Which ones are next on your list of must see places?
Do you love to be outside in all seasons, and also enjoy getting dressed up and going to the symphony, a formal dinner with dancing, or an event? Do you love to hike all day in a foreign land, but want a hot shower & warm bed at night instead of roughing it in a tent? That’s fine by me.
I may not be totally toned & cut (I’m working on it – the toned part at least), but I can keep up with most people. I’ll try just about any sport at least once – even cliff jumping. (Okay, I did that more than once, but haven’t tried bungee jumping yet.)
Can you laugh at yourself? Friends describe my humor as more dry than most, more British than American. I'm quicker with a witty retort than an original joke, although I see humor in most of life's experiences. I love to laugh, even at myself. If you can imagine a 6’3” guy riding a tricycle with two other guys on race bikes for a high school skit...
What am I looking for in a woman? My partner in life's adventures, big & small. My best friend through the ups and downs. A shared connection, the kind of connection my parents had even after 40 years of marriage. You have the ability to forgive the inevitable mistakes that happen in life. (Hey, I’m a guy. I have one Y-chromosome. We think differently than you, but I’m smart enough to know when not to argue (most of the time).) Most important of all, you are someone I will fall in love with over and over again through the years
One final note to all who want a guy who knows how to use power tools and cook - I know how to use them and I can follow a recipe. I'm pretty good with a paint brush, faux finishes, and wallpaper as well.
Date a man from United States. I am intelligent, honest, loyal, and humerous. I am finacnially secure; as financially secure as a self-employed person can be.
I like living in Poncha Springs. I've lived in Colorado since I was 12 years old, and in Poncha since '03. I have a small house on a small lot in a small town.
I like to hike, fish, ski, cook, and garden. I have a boat, and I like fishing from it. I enjoy growing flowers and tomatoes. I like to read and learn new things.
I enjoy my son who is 14 and lives with me most of the time. We enjoy fishing on my boat or on rivers, and playing tennis and chess.
I am agnostic religiously; however, I have judeo/christian morals and ethics. I recycle and compost but I am not fanatical about it.
I enjoy politics especially national politics. I also like economic and political theory. It is a hobby not an obsession.
I would like to have a companion/partner who is intellectually and sexually compatible, who enjoys hiking, fishing, skiing, gardening, occasional dinners out, hanging out, and occasional travel. I want to share activities together. She must get along with my son, which is not hard to do.
Also, I have a lot of tatoos. Nothing vulgar or obnoxious. I like them most of the time. I had a couple tatoo artists as clients and we bartered for my services. They are not who I am, but they are what I've got. They don't show if I don't want them to.

Meet a soulmate from United States. Thanks for taking the time to read my profile.

About Me:
I work in a professional position, but in a casual environment, I work hard, but I enjoy life and experience the world around me. I'm in a good place in my life right now; I don't drag along any baggage, and I'm not interested in anyone who does.
What I like:
I love to explore the world and experience new things. I love to travel; i want to see new places and explore what's over that next horizon. I like antiques, photography, painting, and reading, but also enjoy a good movie or some limited television. I enjoy sitting in sidewalk cafe's, drinking coffee or a beer and people watching (especially in foreign countries or big cities). You're not going to find me in the bar crowd, but I do like to have lunch or dinner at a good local pub or family restaurant. I enjoy all the seasons equally, and wouldn't like to live in an area that is always either hot or cold; each change brings something interesting to be enjoyed.
About my ideal match:
She would be someone young in spirit yet mature of mind and confident in themselves with a good sense of who they are. She would be adventurous when the occasion requires, but comfortable with and enjoy home time as well. She would enjoy time with family and friends, but not need a crowd to be complete. I'd like to meet someone who is as comfortable in formal wear as they are in flip flops; who can wear a baseball cap or pearls; maybe at the same time. I would like someone who is kind and considerate, independent, and intelligent, but finds a relationship as a partnership. I know all of that sounds cliche, but I think people like this exist.
Date people from United States. How much does a polar bear weigh?
Enough to break the ice.
Now that you see how bad my pick-up lines are, you can understand why I am on match. Ha ha
I chose balancedfreak as my match name because I truly am a balanced person. Everything in moderation seems to work for me.
I admit I grew up a total sports freak and played just about any sport you can imagine including the big 3 competitively. My dad was a coach and I loved playing and competing. I believe I became the person I am today largely because of this background. I am loyal, driven, team oriented, outgoing and very active. I never want to let the rest of my team down so I will do whatever it takes to ensure I hold up my end of the bargain.
My dad was also a math teacher and my mom taught 3rd grade so I was also brought up with strict expectations academically. Even with my academic background, back about 15 years ago I think I could’ve been pigeon holed into the crazy sports guy category. However, as I’ve…gulp….matured, I have learned to enjoy so many more things such as theatre, foreign films, travel (not just to the beach anymore…although those are great trips too), etc.
The “balanced” description goes much farther than just sports and theater. While I am a morning person, I also like staying out late. While I like going out on the town, I also like chilling at home. While I am naturally very responsible and can be serious when needed, I am also somewhat of a goofball and find humor in just about anything.
Heck I’m even finding humor in how difficult it is to write this dang profile. I hope you’re enjoying it so far because now I have to explain the “freak” part of the balancedfreak name. I believe we are all unique and in some ways freaky. I am looking for somebody that can accept and eventually appreciate my quirks and will allow me to do the same with hers.
The feelings we have when there is mutual attraction between two people are unlike any other feelings you will ever have. They will incite you, invigorate you, and put you in a focused state of mind when time stands still, and when every sense is heightened and anything and everything is possible.
As we’ve all learned by now, these feelings are only part of what helps make a successful long term relationship. I’ve witnessed a great love story with my parents who have been married for 55 years and I've been through enough relationships to know that you have to give more than you hope to receive and that mutual respect and friendship are key. One thing that separates me from many others is my ability to listen and to be fully engaged with what you are saying (or not saying).
I am at a great place in my life and am looking for a woman that is as well. We all have some baggage but we need to own it and not let it get in the way of the future ahead of us. I am confident that my ability to communicate, my caring nature and romantic side combined with diverse interests and skill sets will allow me to be a great partner when I meet that special woman who has her act together and challenges me to be at my best.
I'm drawn to women who are happy, charismatic, confident and intelligent. My ideal woman goes out of her way to help others, is affectionate and appreciates that I enjoy being a gentleman (yes, I will open the door for you). I hope that she has found the balance that works for her, and that she sees life in a positive light. Her sense of humor should be evident and her passion for life contagious.
Physically I am typically attracted to women with athletic physiques and gorgeous smiles. If she can be at once playful and affectionate, yet honest and genuine, she might just be my idea of 'perfect for me'. The prospect of getting to know such a woman, learning all about her and what she wants from life, is exciting to me.
