Date men and women from United States / Colorado / Colorado Springs, 42 year old

Date people from Colorado, United States. So I'm 22 years in the military and currently deployed in the middle east. I'm the kind of person who's always moving, always busy and I guess I need to slow down and enjoy life a little more. I have a 10 yr old daughter, Vanessa that lives in Florida with her mom. I travel when I can to see her and she comes to Colorado regularly when I'm not deployed. It's great being a dad and knowing someone trusts you and looks up to you for guidance. It is the most rewarding thing in life. I would like to meet someone as friends and hopefully a deeper relationship can come from it.
p.s. My bike is worth more than my car so I hope you're up for a ride

Meet a soulmate from Colorado, United States. I am third generation from Colorado, although my father was military so I spent most of my child hood in southern Illinois. I still miss the slower pace, country roads, small towns, and my friends, but I wouldn’t trade Colorado for any other place.
I am a widow (4.5 years) and single father. My son is a miracle child – not expected to survive because his mother was very ill during the pregnancy. I won't introduce him to anyone I’m dating unless the relationship has long-term potential (he's a real heart breaker).
We had a tough stretch for the better part of six years, but I wouldnt trade them anything. Diamonds are created by heat and pressure, without our struggles, I'd be the same clueless guy stumbling through life. Far from perfect am I, but I get what matters and what doesn't and strive to get better at everything.
My belief in Christ plays a large role in my life. Unlike religion, believing in Christ is freedom. But I have to admit, some of the worst people I know are "Christians", which is why so many people are turned off by religion. Sad but understandable.
I enjoy working out, being fit is important to me. I ride and run a few times a week, also work out with weights – more so in the cooler months than in the summer. I love sports, grew up playing most of them, played basketball in college. I also enjoy watching most major sporting events - I have an appreciation for anyone at the top of their field.

A charcoal grill and smoker are my domain on summer weekends. Cooking and eating have become more desirable the older I get….not the best combination. Just means I have to work out harder! Speaking of food, gardening is also a hobby. You gotta have home-grown jalapenos for poppers. Life is too short for watered down beer, Guiness or Newcastle is a must. A day without a good cup of coffee is unthinkable.
I am intense, don't know how to do anything half-speed. Why hike up a hill when you could try to run up it. I don't sleep much, not that I don't like to. Sensitive? Yes, which helps when playing both parental roles. I like to laugh at goofy stuff, I have a dry sense of humor. I'm very comfortable one on one but don't care for large crowds. People most often describe me as genuine, trustworthy, fair, honest. I speak my mind without hesitation. No problems recognizing and admitting my own weaknesses and faults, would be refreshing to meet someone else who can do the same.
If you're looking for someone to sweep you off your feet, making a grand first impression, scratch me off the list. I have substance, the more you get to know me the more you'll like me.

Looking for an honest, humble, joyful, independent, and athletic woman who communicates. Femine is a must, not hardened and stuck in her ways. Would love a woman who is as comfortable in a business suit as she is in a pair of Levis, i.e. comfortable with herself and not her clothes/looks/money/stature. Turn-offs include narcissism/people who need attention, personality disorders, dishonesty, manipulators, whiners, and materialism.
A good vacation? Lots of sun, cold drinks, flip flops, and shorts. Always love weekend getaways, there's so much to see in Colorado.

Meet someone special from Colorado, United States. Wow! How do you describe yourself? We'll, here it goes I moved to Colorado from Florida and absolutely love it here. I have a thirteen year old daughter who is my pride and joy. I consider myself a honest, caring person but not into the games. My friends describe me as a man's man. I like to hunt, fish, and love doing pretty much anything outdoors. I also like the finer things in life great food, a good bottle of wine, nice craft beer. I guess the best way to describe me is a refined, well rounded, educated country boy! L.O.L. I work hard and put in a lot of hours at work and love my job. I really appreciate my time off and try make the most of it. I love my life but I'm missing that special someone to share it with. I didn't think I would ever try something like the internet to meet people, but being new to the Colorado springs area and not in to meeting people at a bar, I thought I'd give it a chance. I would like to meet someone that is as comfortable being outdoors as they are having a night out on the town. I would like to meet someone with a great sense of humor. somebody that can carry on a great conversation. someone that loves to have fun and enjoys life as much as I do. Well Thanks for reading my profile. if you have any questions just ask!

Date single man from Colorado, United States. Done with Match. I hope everyone the best and hope you find what your looking for. I am no good on this online dating stuff but I will keep searching elswhere I suppose just not online. I will do much better in person than through emails and putting all my stuff out there for everyone to see.

Meet a man from Colorado, United States. I am an athletic, successful professional looking for that "connection", spark and interaction. Wit, intellect and activity - even if the activity might be relaxing on a warm summer evening. I enjoy all sorts of varied activities, outdoors, hiking, fly-fishing, running and even shopping to some extent...(gulp) I really enjoy all types of activities and settings, as long as the company is good.
I'm old enough, experienced enough and secure enough in my being, to know what works and what does not for me. I would like to find a confident, energetic woman to at a minimum have fun, explore and laugh... If something develops from that I would certainly encourage it.
I have a beautiful daughter who is in college that I'm hoping to get to know better over the coming years.
I'm a big fan of wit and sarcasm...but also know there are times to turn it off. :) (might take a smack or two) Any comedy, horror or sci-fi works but if you can put up with my quoting "Idiocracy", "Dumb and Dumber", "Me, Myself and Irene", "Caddy Shack" etc., then it's all good.... hah! My humor ranges from high-brow, intellectually referenced i.e. Dennis Miller to slapstick, fumbling of say, Chevy Chase.
If George Costanza was taller, athletic and much better looking....I might be in trouble! "Vandelay Industries!.....say Vandelay Jerry!" Everyone has their own specific tastes and interests, the key is being open and willing to put up with that special other person - even if they are being a goof!
I thrive in the mountains, rivers, streams and open spaces ? a long dusty road, surrounded by mountains, the hot Colorado sun heating up the air, all while as far as you can see; no one...it's all yours! I love road trips, especially in the summer. I also enjoy the city life, downtown, running the fountain creek trail through Monument Valley Park and then having Phantom Canyon around the corner. (I love the Ocean too by the way)
I do not seek perfection in a partner, but I most certainly do seek, depth, individualism and the sublime of a true connection. I am very active and physically fit, so while I don?t expect any Olympians, I do need to be with someone that takes care of themselves.
Ok - yada yada :)
Cheers all!

Date people from Colorado Springs, United States. I'm originally from Illinois. I'm a huge St. Louis Cardinals fan and am thrilled that they won the World Series!
It was the inspiration for my username.
I work hard at my job and I love it. And I'm very good at it. But, I'm not married to it.
I'm pretty laid-back and enjoy doing almost anything. Except skating. I'm terrible at skating. Please don't take me skating. Thank you. :)
I'm usually pretty jocular and my sense-of-humor can range from silly to dry, depending on the day. I'm kind of a dork and I'm OK with that.
By my nature I don't have a lot of down time. My work days (including commute) are usually about 12 hours and I also go to the gym 3x/week. I eat well and tend to stay active. EXAMPLE: at 4am 3x/week you'll find me on my treadmill. I just don't sit still a lot and would love to get out and enjoy nature a lot more than I currently do.
I love going to the movies, eating out - Mexican and Asian (Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Thai) are my faves , hiking, camping, swimming, watching TV, baseball, exploring, playing with my dog and anything that involves playing in the sunshine. Love going to see live music and I enjoy everything from metal to jazz to British pop.
I'm very good at cutting avocados, love IOS auto-correct ("nonaligned" for "Bobali", really?), enjoy waking up to the radio even if it means having a song I hate stuck in my head for the day, and stop to watch almost any bug, critter, tree, rock I see.
Let's face it, every profile you read is going to say, "I want someone easy-going who makes me laugh, has a job, loves animals and kids and is working on curing cancer". Yes, please. I'd also like to be with someone who enjoys their life, smiles a lot, introduces me to new things, makes me get out of the house and on the trails. Someone who will have a philosophical discussion with me over lunch and then start a water fight in the yard is a definite plus.
If you're a positive, fulfilled, sophisticated, fun person who is looking for a great guy with a lot going for him, then shoot me a message.
Remember, you can't have the heart without the ache.

Meet a soulmate from Colorado Springs, United States. Hi, this would be my first adventure in online dating. Decscribing myself can certainly be a challenge. I am almost a Colorado native, been here since '76 and still love it. I am a very level headed, hard working and dedicated person, but I am also very fun loving, adventurous and sometimes goofy. Speaking my mind is something I am good at, as long as its not at someone else's expense.
I am looking for someone to share time with, do things and see things with. I enjoy working out, I think I enjoy yoga (only tried it twice, but felt great afterwards), hiking, skiing, reading, cooking, etc.. I like being outdoors or indoors, watching movies at home or going out to see one, being active or being lazy. To summarize myself, I can be happy in almost any environment, I always try to find the positive in any bad situation, and put simply I love life!
My fourteen year old son lives with me every other week, he is a smart and funny guy. I have been seperated for nearly a year and my divorce will be final soon. This is not a rebound!

Date men and women from Colorado Springs, United States. My friends would say I work alot, so that being said I play twice as hard. A smile makes me smile. I am a people watcher as well, humanity is so funny and I am part of that equasion. I laugh at myself all the time. I like spending time with family and friends. Most of all the woman in my life.

Meet someone special from Colorado Springs, United States. Looking for someone who compliments me. She must be funny, outgoing, tough as nails, self confident and a strong identity of who she is. I am easy going, hard working sober in life but refuse to not have fun no matter what life throws out. The biggest thing that I am looking for in a partner is faith in Jesus Christ. That is first and foremost in my life. I certainly have my flaws and am looking for someone to share better and worse, sickness and health, rich and poor, and everything else that life throws out.
Ok, now that I got all the "serious" stuff out of the way... I love to cook, golf, mountain bike, have fun, work hard and play harder. I am a musician also and I've played on serveral different recording projects, toured, and played in local bands. Currently I am involved in a praise and worship album project. I am involved with my church as well as helping lead worship once or twice per month at a friend's church. I think family and friends are most important to me. My friends would say that I am loyal, funny, sarcastic yet kind ( I know my sarcasm can be harsh if I'm not careful of other people's feelings), hard working, romantic, affectionate, and not affraid of comitment. I have never been married or really even close but that is because I am just waiting for the Lord to bring me the right girl.
This is my first attempt at online dating so I'm not quite sure what to expect. I told one of my friends "my standards are high, expectations are low". Lol! I'm not looking for women to "hook up" with or friends with benefits, I am looking for a potential spouse. With that said, I'm not looking to get married next week. If you find me interesting, let's connect and see where it goes. Let's hang out and be ourselves and get to know each other (don't get the idea that I'm not romantic because I most certainly am with the right person!). Good luck!

Date single man from Colorado Springs, United States. God has blessed my socks off, given me all my dreams. Wonderful family, toys, security, and a great career. Now I just wanna find someone to hang out and enjoy those things with.With Little stress and little worries. In a mature relationship where people are not trying to change each other.

Meet a man from Colorado Springs, United States. I am an outgoing, fun loving kinda guy who enjoys the company of his family. I've always been a family man. I have great children, great friends and I enjoy meeting new people. My children, 17 and 18, are very active and very important! I love the outdoors, camping, fishing, hunting, golfing, the beach, the lake, long drives/walks and rainy nights.
So, what am I looking for in a woman! The first thing I do notice is your eyes and your smile. To begin with, I'm not looking to jump right into a long term relationship. I want to meet someone, get to really know them, find out what's in their heart, soul, what their dreams and life aspirations are and go from their.
In a woman, I like confidence and independence! I love big hearts, big smiles, the ability to have a stimulating conversation or just be goofy and funny. Having a great sense of humor in this life is a must. You must be able to laugh at yourself. I'm looking for a woman who communicates openly and honestly, enjoys trying new things, is goal oriented, and has the ability to relax. I love sporting events and the outdoors and hope you do to. I do love a woman in a dress, and a great pair of worn jeans!
In the end, the woman I am searching for would be my best friend, someone to share life and this journey with.
