Meet men and women from Colorado Springs, United States. Joy is a result of finding someone with whom you may share life. Who can walk together unless they be agreed? That seems to be one of the luxuries of the Internet: finding the most suitable fit among many postings. I appreciate the effort so many have made.
One can only suppose that everyone aims to give a fair description of self in a brief space. I guess it's like the salesman who figures he has about 30 seconds to close the sale before losing attention. Better get to work here.
The ancient Book said that it was not good for man to be alone (nor women). We are social creatures in want of companionship. Even a sliver of company can satisfy. It's good to share thoughts; one's heart with another.
I like company, and people. It's important to me to listen, give understanding, support, respect, nurturing, and encouragement. So, those characteristics would be important traits in another. Do you value these things, too?
It seems to me that this is a fine beginning. I have no other expectations to place upon others. It's like Dr. Laura says, 'Men are simple creatures--feed them and, well, provide them admiration, respect, and nurturing. Men can be taken at face value (no pun intended)!
So, if you even somewhat share these ideas, get in touch. Talking is enjoyable; good friends are priceless!
Briefly, about my personal convictions, I am a Christian Protestant who prizes the teachings of the Reformation (from the 16th and 17th centuries). I value the five 'solas' (if you don't know them, please ask), and believe that the two primary issues at stake in the Reformation are just as critical today: the question of divine authority (the source), and justification by faith alone (from whom does righteousness come).
Others have described me as serious and assertive in conviction, but with a sometimes gut-busting sense of humor. Hardly laughs are good. In fact, a few years back I nearly laughed myself unconscious due to some very witty, sarcastic, timely humor that just broke the iciness of a stern dialog! I could hardly stand up! What a hoot and howl! So, anyway it keeps life balanced.
What can bring the biggest smile from me (on the inside if not the outside) is love and adoration from a sincere heart. Want to have a man in the palm of your hand? This is the inestimable power of a wise woman. Being romantic and sentimental by nature, I have little or no resistance. ;o)

Date a man from Colorado Springs, United States. I am ready to take the big leap and try this online dating thing. If you are looking for a guy who is level headed, honest, and positive... that would be me.
My life is centered around serving Jesus and I am looking for someone who does the same (or is at least making an effort.) I do enjoy living a balanced life though, and I try not to judge people with other lifestyles.
Hope you have a good sense of humor and a big heart. I do.
I enjoy new experiences, adventures and challenges. I recently relocated to Colorado, and so every day is an adventure in some way.
I love doing outdoor things, but the city has a great deal to offer also. It is alright if you don't like all of my interests and hobbies as long as we have some common things to share.

Meet a soulmate from Colorado Springs, United States. I guess I could be looked at as a fairly easy going person,that's because I take people on there word and when they don't do as they say I'll keep away from them, but I try not to take life that way. I'm the type that if I tell you something that is what I will do and I just expect the same of others. I try to be very dependable. I'm very comfortable in my own skin, but I'd still would love to find a lady to share my life with. I keep my home and life organized. I guess I'm hoping to find a woman that I can share my free time with. To start out slow and develop a stong relationship with. I try not to pressure anyone and don't like to be. I like to be close and cuddle at night, while watching a movie or where ever.To show affection not just in private but in public. I'm also a hugger, like I've said I'm not afraid to show affection. I like to look at the good in people, not to judge quickly. Respect who and what they are the way I would like to be treated.I hope to find a woman that can guide me/us with a gental hand, because at times we can all us a little help. But lets face facts, the 1st thing we all do is look at the photo's,if there's interest in that then you move on to a profile. What I think really works best is a phone conversation, get to really talk about your self on a more personal level. Guess we have to start out somewhere. The ideal woman for me will have inviting and warm eyes. Her smile would captive me and all others around. The attraction to each other would be mutual. She is confident and enjoys her career. When we kiss it is passionate, I would feel only her and the rest of the world would vavish. We would hold each other as if ther wre no tomorrow, time had stopped. She would be devoted to her family, which I would give her all the time she needed. She would be happy with the simple things in life but know how to do up the town in style. But it really would not matter what we were doing as long as it was together.

Date people from Colorado Springs, United States. Greetings!
I am on Match to find a female friend that can become a best friend and eventually hope to find my lifelong partner......but knowing that this will take time and trial.
If you are a woman that enjoys being a "girly girl" that likes to dress up and keep her nails polished but will also strap on a pair of jeans and hiking boots to tackle the Barr Trail ......likes holding hands and hugs... "themed" dates and surprises...enjoys being outside and active during the day and cuddling up on the couch with a glass of wine and a movie at night....wants to be appreciated for who you are and encouraged for who you want to be....is a good listener and a great conversationalist....enjoys meeting new people and experiencing new places.....then read on!
Every day is a gift and I make and take the most out of each one.... people oriented and appreciate individual quirks as "the spice of life". I am positive by nature, fun and funny...always seem to come up with a funny line at just the right time.....values driven, ask me my top 10 values and how I try to live them....confident in my personality and abilities with others...people seem to find me easy to talk to and appreciate that I listen and remember what they said.
I work hard and have an entrepreneurial spirit but when the work day is done...it is done! Time to invest in family, friends and relationships. I improve the lives of everyone around me...a giver not a taker. Lots of lifetime friends around the world but I am missing that special someone that I would like to invest my time and attention towards. I am a romantic at heart, believe in opening doors, sending flowers, hand written greeting cards, holding hands and lots of hugging and cuddling. I enjoy food, wine and cooking for others....am told I am a great cook:)
Living in Colorado has been a dream for years, moved here in 2010....I enjoy being outdoors and staying active with walking, hiking, bicycling, kayaking, golf, you name it...if it's outdoors I am there! Considering a motorcyle again....I enjoy reading and writing, currently working on a fun book about how we view ourselves and how we want others to view us.
I have an adult daughter here in the Springs that requires my loving time and attention, a son out east with two beautiful grandsons I visit twice a year....work in hospitality management so lots of discounted hotel and travel opportunities...I just don't like traveling alone and can not wait to explore Colorado and the west!
So here is hoping you have read this far and are interested in at least a conversation via email or phone...always a good way to start....first date will always be dinner...my treat..... and then we see what happens from there.....peace, love and petite syrah!

Meet men and women from Colorado, United States. Hmmm. Someone who is sweet, smart, outdoors type, spriitual but not fanatical, a moderate, thoughtful, intuitive and energetic
I think I'll ponder this a bit more, the essense is easier than the written definition

Date a man from Colorado, United States. After being on here a while, I'm getting too many emails with no photos...please don't write without a photo (only fair I think) and no winks please. Also, here's a hint girls, if you lie about your age, you're apt to lie about other things, so if you're not the age you state, move on please . Also, if you say the word "like" more than twice in one sentence, be prepared to "like" be totally "like" teased about "like" the way you always say "like".....totally!
Tip for the day: Don't fry bacon in the nude!
I'm an Oregon native who arrived back to Colorado Springs 2 years ago for the 5th time now. Also lived in Tennessee, Georgia, Oklahoma, Missouri and Washington. I was widowed 7 years and met & married a girl from this site. We married too quickly but somehow thought that the fact that we were both widowed made us a better match. The marriage ended rather quickly but amicably. We're friends but more time together would've have made us realize that we weren't meant for each other. I've learned now not to do long distance anymore. A 300 mile radius is all I would even consider. I'm a people person and am not afraid to meet a stranger. I've raised 3 kids on my own for years and now they've all flown the coop. I've also maintained my own businesses in 3 states for many years. I would like someone who likes to travel, isn't self-focused, likes to laugh, likes to talk seriously as well as just being goofy at times. A great smile is a must and also a people person, but not overly flirtatious. I took up tennis 6 years ago and play almost every day so a tennis player and/or dancer would be a plus. I've realized lately that I may be a bit over-spontaneous. I've been known to just hop a plane at a moments notice or do an overnight road trip somewhere.....a bit restless I guess but I love to explore new places. I tell everyone since I'm related to William Clark from Lewis & Clark fame, that must be why I like to explore so much :)
I only date Christian women so be warned! :)
So what's the big deal about separating colors in the wash?

Date people from Colorado, United States. I am thankful for every day and each new adventure that life brings. There are many things that we do (or want to do) that should be shared and I am hoping to meet that someone who feels the same. Confidence, values, a sense of adventure, unbounded passion for life, and unafraid to express herself to show love goes a very long way... I will hold your hand, I will listen, I will be there when you need me, and I am a true romantic.
I enjoy the serenity that morning brings and look forward to each and every day as a new adventure.

Meet someone special from Colorado, United States. As a journalist covering music, politics and culture, I've interviewed and written about lots of really interesting people. And while I'm not exactly sure what it is in my personality that makes me think that's such a good idea, I do know that it also makes me feel the opposite when it comes to being interviewed myself. Or, for that matter, when it comes to writing about myself.
That said, I grew up in New York, an hour train ride north of the city, and got my journalism degree in the wake of Watergate. After graduation, I headed out to California to "put the band back together" (five of the most ill-fated words in the English language). I turned out to be a lot better at journalism than music, and have had the good fortune to make my living as a newspaper and magazine editor ever since. Four years ago, I moved here from California to Colorado for my current job, and have really come to love it here.
Some things I love: Music (I can find something to appreciate in pretty much every genre I can think of except emo), conversation, coffee, spontaneous humor, biking (mostly along Shooks Run and Fountain Creek), travel (I make annual pilgrimages to Austin for SXSW as well as New York and California; would like to get back to New Orleans, London and even Sydney one of these days), soccer, reading, writing, restaurants, cultural-political-ethical awareness, friends, family, and caring people in general. Plus other stuff I'm forgetting right now.
As for the meaning of life and the joys of romance, it's hard to write about that kind of thing knowing that some coworker might end up stumbling upon it. Maybe you and I can talk about it later.
In any case, thanks for reading, good night, and good luck!
