Date men and women from United States / Colorado / Greenwood Village - page 4

Date men and women from Colorado, United States. I have been on match before. I have met some very nice people...now friends! So...with that, I am a mature, rational, upbeat, cheerful, always witty kind of guy. A professional that looks to make each day end on the note, "you just gotta laugh"! I am not a extremist health nut but take very good care of myself and would look for that in a partner. I do have my personal opinion of obesity in the USA, not shallow, just concerned about all of our population being so. I do indulge though in alcohol and food but pay for it with my trainer the next morning!! I am sincere, honest, rational, honorable, professional, educated, yet striving to constantly be young at heart. I come from a very strong family backing and have very strong bonds there. I was taught about honorability and integrity. I have been on corporate boards to small town volunteer groups and probably always will. I don't know whether opposites attract or not but I look for someone who knows how to smile and have fun in face of a bad day....who can shake it....or allow me to shake it from her in support. Bottomline, I want to find someone who adores me and who I adore....if that is the case then I feel I have found my ultimate match!!!
If you want a best friend you can text or call on the drop of a dime, a true friend to trust honor and adore....and snuggle up to...I may be the "one"!!!!!

Meet people from Colorado, United States. About Me: I am a settled, free spirited, happy and honest person, raising two great kids and living life to the fullest. At this point, I have to leave it at that, because I really don't like talking about myself. I believe in intuition and live by my gut. So, I truly believe that if I spark someone's interest, they will feel something and reach out for direct communication. Therefore, whatever I write here (in my mind at the present) doesn't really matter. I suppose most people write what they think others want to hear anyway, which isn't me.
What I Am Looking For: I guess for starters, what I put into my profile as it pertains to age, likes and descriptions. If you are not that, please do not make contact. I'm a genuinely a nice person and do not want to hurt anyone's feeling. Honesty, is the MOST important. I can only be around a free spirit, that's EASY to be around with little or no effort to please me or be something they are not. The rest, I just let it be what it is.
I apologize for not answering the remaining questions. Again, one's intuition. If you feel a hint of connection, then time will answer all questions. Thanks for reading this and I hope I haven't offended anyone.

Date single man from Greenwood Village, United States. When bad things happen to you, it's comedy. When bad things happen to me, it's tragedy :)
I have enjoyed online dating. Much more fun than the bar scene. And I've met some great people. I've been lucky that I haven't had any nightmare stories from online dating (but plenty of women have told me some hysterical scary online dating dramas!). But I'm looking for more. I have everything anyone could want: 2 great kids, my health, and a great career. The only thing I'm missing, someone to share it all with. I'm looking for a permanent best friend, and I'm looking for chemistry. I don't think that those 2 things are mutually exclusive! Oh, and drama free is a must! Or at least be able to laugh about the drama as it comes your way :)
And If you're still reading this, here's what I originally wrote when I started my match account:
I was having trouble describing myself. So I asked a friend to describe me. This is what she said:
"Successful, Charismatic, loyal, loving and down to earth.Loves to do out door activities and enjoying a good laugh." (who knew!)
I am a pretty positive person, so I'm looking for the same. Someone who wants to be a friend, someone who likes to bike or hike or just hang out. I love to ride my bike in the summer and ski in the winter.
I'm also into the arts, so theaters and the Denver Art Museum are always fun. Oh, and I'm a movie addict. I love the Landmark Theater in Greenwood Village.
I have 2 beautiful daughters ages 10 and 12. Being a pediatrician, it goes without saying that I love kids.
My ideal match is athletic, confident, and loves kids too. If any of this interests you, gimme a buzz!

Meet someone special from Greenwood Village, United States. I'm an honest guy with an outgoing personality looking to share my life with someone special. Family and friends are very important to me and spending time with them is a priority to me. I've traveled and lived many places in the world but I've settled in Colorado. Well, I will always travel but Colorado will likely always be home. Favorite places to travel are Europe and anyplace tropical but I am willing go just about anywhere once.
I enjoy the outdoors, music and sports. Photography is my passion so I usually work that into the mix while traveling, hiking or simply watching my nephews' football games. I have an exciting career that has given me glimpses of a lot of cool things. I enjoy the excitement and the feeling of purpose but work doesn't define me--it is just what I'm doing until I re-invent myself with my next career.
I value "real" people and try to be that way myself. I believe you can tell a lot about a person by how they treat others. Having grown up on the east coast, I find Colorado's easy going spirit refreshing.
One of my least favorite things is writing about myself but I've tried to give you enough so you can decide if you want to know more. I look forward to getting to know you as we explore ourselves and let's see where this takes us.

Date men and women from Colorado, United States. Talk about an impossible task--trying to sum up all my life's experiences, loves, hopes and dreams in this tiny little box! But I don't shy away from a challenge so I'm going to give it my best shot. Get comfy, there's a lot of ground to cover. Ready?
Just like me, this is a work in progress. Let's start with the fact that people tell me that I have a happy smile and nice brown eyes, and that I've been told that I have great hands. As an oncologist it's important to me to be healthy. Seeing the devastation and damage from smoking first hand, I am opposed. While I'm not a vegetarian I've acquired a new love of great salads and have been trying to follow the Paleo diet. I enjoy exploring new restaurants. I stay active and exercise regularly - I enjoy CrossFit along with running, biking and tennis. The variety and potential to always improve in CrossFit keeps me motivated. Cherry Creek Reservoir has been a great place to enjoy a bike ride. I also intend to do some mountain biking. Want to join?
I consider myself a cheerful person frequently whistling as I walk down the hall (though sometimes I'm not even aware that I'm whistling). I'm a bit OCD as I tend to straighten crooked pictures when I walk by and pick up trash (even if it isn't mine). Doesn't make much sense - my office has been described as a little messy but if you were to see my closets or drawers you'd be impressed with how organized they are.
Figuring out how things work--mechanical systems, personality types, motivations and behaviors, almost anything -- tends to catch my attention. I'm kind of competitive by nature and enjoy another person challenging me. I find that I certainly don't need to win every time and in fact I learn from losing. Isn't that what makes it fun?
I really take pleasure in the subtleties of life...the juiciness of a medium-rare steak, the freshness of great sushi, the creamy sweetness of ice cream (my present favorite is Haagen Dazs Mint Chip). I continue to look for a favorite patisserie in Denver. Any recommendations?
Variety is key to keeping things interesting and that's true for entertainment as well. For movies I enjoy everything from action films to older movies and even some kid movies. You'll find me listening to music more often than not, and my tastes there range from rock to jazz to classical to country. A few favorites include James Taylor, Corinne Bailey Rae and Keith Urban. I have a 13 year old daughter who is always introducing me to new music. Some I like - AWOLNATION - and some not. I don't watch television that often but Modern Family and House of Lies are some favorites on my DVR right now.
When we boil it down to who I am as a person, the words responsible, loyal, independent, open-minded, clean, romantic, sensitive, ethical, humble, attractive, fun-seeking and adventurous are a good start. I enjoy my work and don't need anyone to take care of me. I seek someone who, at her core, embodies similar qualities.
What catches my eye first are beautiful eyes, killer smile and body habitus (being fit is essential, important and attractive) but what keeps me interested is how comfortable someone feels in her own skin and if she is genuine, kind, treats others with respect (think the wait staff at dinner) and models humility.
I have 2 daughters who live with me most of the time. Since moving back to Colorado they have been spending weekends with their mom. They are an important part of my life and I take being their father seriously. It is not a goal to father any new babies, but would welcome a partner's children into a blended setting. While I am here looking for 'the one' I am also interested in meeting new friends, maybe someone to share a workout, a great meal, a glass of wine and a riveting conversation with.
How about you? There's that elusive thing called chemistry that I don't feel can be gauged by reading a profile on a screen. I look forward to hearing from you!

Date people from United States. I moved from Fort Collins, CO, several years ago to spend more time with my two kids. 70 miles may not be that far, but it seems like a continent away when you can't give them a good night kiss and tuck them in at night. Now, one is heading off to college and the other will continue to keep me busy between school, homework, and coaching. I am a sports junkie - huge Avalanche fan (I grew up in Minnesota, so hockey is in the blood), college football over the pro game, and I'll turn on the Rockies every night.

Values:
Work hard, play hard; focused, but not uptight; confident, but self deprecating; strong parenting; passion, romance; affection; sense of humor at all costs! I have high integrity, with one notable exception - I have a really hard time believing that I just turned 51 - must have been a mistake on my birth certificate! There is an obvious age barrier on Match at 50. I'm very fit and active and am immature for my age - so I think I deserve a discount of at least 3 years...maybe more...

Romantic Side:
(the following is not completely original - inspired by a poem)
When she steals your favorite shirt
--- tell her how great she looks in it
When you see her walking alone
--- sneak up from behind and hug her
When she's mad
--- hold her tight, don't let go
When she tells you a secret
--- keep it safe
When she's scared
--- protect her
When she's strong
--- hold her higher
When she needs her space
--- let her have it
--- but be there when she needs you back
When she looks away, and says she's ok
--- don't believe it
and when she looks you in the eyes
--- don't look away
When you see her cry
--- just hold her
When she pulls away
--- pull her back
When reaches for your hand
--- be there to hold it
Treat her like a princess
--- because you know she is one
When she says 'I love you'
--- know that she means it
Don't tell her you love her
--- until you mean it
--- and mean it often
A Good Date: pick her up from work with a Limo, fine wine on the way to the airport, San Fran for dinner at the warf, a romantic walk by the bay, 5 star hotel ,,, on the beach in San Diego by Saturday morning ....
The Best Date - with her on my deck watching the sunset, sipping ice water, no fancy restaurant, no limo, no 5 star hotel ... because we have everything we need...

Date people from United States. I grew up in Colorado and have recently moved back. I love skiing, hiking, having a glass of wine by the fireplace, gazing at stars from the front porch at 10,000 feet and just being in the mountains. I’m the guy who’s curious about what’s around the next corner and over the next hill. That being said, you can dress me up and take me out on the town. I’m always up for diner and a show, the theater, symphony, Jazz or comedy club. My mother made sure that I knew how to treat a woman and act in public. The romantic in me would rather just stay in, cook dinner, enjoy a bottle of wine and a quiet evening with that special person. If you’re interested in getting to know more about me, I’d love to hear from you.

Well, I enjoy Colorado, but I am not a native, as I grew up in Germany. My father is German, met my Mom in the US when he came here to go to school. After graduation, they married and moved to Germany where he set-up a business. We moved to the States just before my teens, living in Chicago, Oklahoma and Texas. I became fond of Colorado through my German Grandparents who moved to the US to be closer to family. They set up a business in Chicago, but came to Colorado Springs for vacation and while on the trip they decided to sell their business in Chicago, when they bought the hotel they were staying at. They were very entrepreneurial and I use to come out in the summers to help with hotel, which was always an adventure. Eventually, I decided Colorado would be a great place to go to college.
After graduation from college I went to work in Public Accounting in Chicago. Moved into commercial banking then worked in New York, St. Louis, S. Calif. and eventually back to Denver. Through this I found a niche in banking and started a financial risk management company that supports the financial services industry, also government agencies. Started the business in S. Calif., moved it to Denver serveral years ago and we support clients in the US, Canada and Europe to include Germany, England, also several other countries. I really enjoy my profession and feel very fortunate in my success, also the flexibility it has given me.
I am a proud father of a son who is in his second year of college. We have a great relationship and he is just as much my friend, as he is my son. I have been an active father in his life, taking equal care of him thoughout his growth and can say that I have learned much from his insight.
My Grandfather was a Chef and he made sure his grandkids could work around the kitchen, so I enjoy cooking. I like to hike, cycle, dance, keep in shape (workout 5 to 6 times per week), discuss/debate politics, the economy, life or shoes. Jeep old Ghost Towns, enjoy the symphony, theater, concerts, the arts of any kind, design, romantic dinners, take short trips to places like Santa Fe and vacation in Europe. I also play the base violin and have been in a Jazz Group over the years, so I really like music.
I am interested in meeting someone who is comfortable with where they are in life. One with similar interests, with a good sense of humor, knows how to have fun, who is insightful, loving, responsible, enjoys music, likes to travel and wants to live a healthy lifestyle.
