Date men from United States / Arizona / Peoria, 38 year old

Date single man from Peoria, United States. I am a human male looking for a life partner(female) to share the experience of life. I am a man full of contradictions, but honest about it. I am seeking a friend and lover who might share some of the same outlooks and values i hold to. I hesitate to to commit to any set description of said values due to the fact that life has a way of teaching you to change as you grow and learn. If you are interested in shared experiences of life, love, victory, loss, happiness, grief, success, failure, and the myriad possibilities that abound drop me a note.

Meet a soulmate from Peoria, United States. I love my home in Arizona! Seven years ago, I moved from Boston (no accent) to pursue a business venture and I don’t plan on leaving anytime soon. I’m generally a very happy person and love most everything about my life (friends, family, work, play, home, hobbies, toys, goals, opportunities, challenges, etc.).
I’m part of a large and close family. My parents and siblings are my sounding board and my role models. I had, what I believe to be, a stable/normal upbringing. I like to pretend I’m well mannered and a polite person. Kidding! My mom taught us well. I’m not a whiner. Not a quitter. And despite the length of this stinkin’ profile, I’m relatively quiet, laid back, and don’t do drama well...
I’m financially stable, a bit of a neat-freak, mechanically inclined, and know my way around a tool box. I lead a fairly healthy and balanced life style that includes eating responsibly and exercising regularly. (love local Arizona hikes!) Although... I’m not ashamed to admit I’m a severe chocoholic. I’m tellin’ ya; dip a 2x4 in chocolate and I just might take a bite!! ;)
I’m possibly maybe probably definitely a bit of an adrenalin-junky. I love road trips in the AZ "wilderness!" Come wintertime, skiing is a HUGE part of my life. I spend time in Vail, CO. I hike the Grand Canyon relatively often. "Below the rim" is one of my favorite places on this planet. BUT! Don’t get me wrong, I’m not psychotic about it. I LOOVE chillin’ at home, sunk into the couch, watchin' TV, reading, or just staring at the slowly rotating ceiling fan w a blank expression on my face.... Kidding!
I’ve had more than one (not too many more!) long term committed monogamous relationships prior to today. I value and loved many aspects of those times and I am a better person for it - more grounded, more realistic, more clarity, more empathy, with more shared experiences.
I believe we only get one go-round in life. (I’m open and interested in someone who thinks/believes otherwise) Value each day as it comes and goes just once in your life. I know what I want and need to be happy. I can't just throw in the towel and settle for less for fear of being alone. It’s better to be solo and happy rather than “un-solo” in a less-than-happy relationship. Not to sound as though it’s all about me, but how can you help fulfill someone else’s happiness if you’re not happy yourself. Right?!?
LOL! I love some of these profiles I've been reading. It’s sorta bass-ackwards! We’re all ordering-up our “soul mate” or “best friend” as if we’re yelling into the static-crackled mic at the lighted menu board at In-n-Out Burger; “Uhmmm… I’d like a happy, friendly, hot, crispy, golden fried person, who’s adventurous, twinkly, covered with cheese, loves her dad, aaaand, uuuhm, I guess fries, finely manicured nails, and a chocolate (obviously!) shake withdat, please. Thank you!”
*Ehem* With that said, here’s my own personal tall order (haha!)
(*inhale deep breath*) Someone funclassycutehappyhealthyathleticsexycurvyarticula
te, aaand financially competent. (no fiscal train wrecks!) She's interested in who she's with. Doesn't have a cell phone permanently affixed to her ear or hypersonic thumbs endlessly punching out texts while we’re together. I'm looking to meet someone who values time together as well as time alone.
I’m drawn to ambitious, smart, funny people. I like being around people in charge of their lives. No “victims” please. I love learning and experiencing new things with the person most important in my life. A strong solid friendship is essential. An AZ native is a plus!
With the right person, I could have fun doing just about anything from jumping out of a plane (which I’ve never done) to flossing my teeth (which I do every day).
I'd like to meet someone I can relate to, who rolls with my sense of humor, is comfortable to be around, is engaged and interested in life, and is cool riding with the window down on occasion!

Date a man from Peoria, United States. I am a pretty fun guy that likes to have a good time and always up to try new things. I enjoy most sports, music, dancing, socializing with friends and family, I play a couple of different sports (recreational) of course. I am looking for a woman with some of my interest. My dream girl doesn't have to like all the same stuff as me, but would love to see her on the sideline at least. I would say for the most part, I'm looking for a fun cowgirl that doesnt mind getting a little dirty, and wants to build a together based on honesy and good times.
I like spending as much time as I can at my family home up in Pinetop. And if not there, I want to be in my flip flops on a beach. Scuba diving is one of my passions. I am a licsened Scuba Insructor, which helps pay for some of my fun.

Meet someone special from Peoria, United States. I always find this hard to do without sounding conceited, but here goes. I'm very laid back and have a somewhat casual attitude to life. That's not to say that I don't have dreams and goals that I try to achieve, but rather that I tend to take all of life's little quirks in stride. I always look to find the humor in any situation and I don't get angry at every curveball that comes my way. Even being laid back, I still tend to be passionate about things that catch my attention. Whether its a favorite activity, an intriguing person, or a particularly puzzling task. I try to be honest and dedicated in my relationships. I've seen first hand how bad lying and mistrust can be to a relationship. The woman I'm looking for can be a lot of different things. I am very open minded when it comes to dating. I guess the main things I look for would be a sweet disposition, a healthy sense of humor and intelligence. I won't lie and say that looks are not somewhat important, but I find most women attractive in one way or another. That's about it...

Date single man from Arizona, United States. First of all, thank you for taking time to read this. I will do my best to describe what I am all about, however, if I miss something please do not hesitate to send a message with your question! I would hate to miss out on that perfect person because I forgot to include something here.
Let's see, here, I am: somewhat a creature of habit. I know what I like at this point in my life and really stick to whatever works. However, I am constantly looking to improve any situation in my life that may need improving. I am very close with family and am constantly traveling to visit with them. I am also very career oriented, I do work long hours sometimes and may get out late. However, I do not work 90 hours a week, it is closer to 40 if not under. I have a great vacation package that allows me to break the year up nicely "to get away."
I enjoy barbecuing by the pool on days off. Maybe watching a movie. Certainly some live music will get me out of the house especially if we start with sushi. I recently started Bikram Yoga and love it. Otherwise, I hit the gym for cardio and staying in shape for snowboarding in the winters. I love unwinding around 8:30 in the evening with a great book and my Golden Retrievers while preparing my mind for the next day of work.
Moving on:
This is going to be cliche, but I do not find the need to have someone around me that exhibits the following: neediness/codependency, emotional games, unemployment/laziness, fiscal irresponsibility, poor diet/health, or smoking/excessive drinking/drugs. There, those are very undesirable traits and if you fit into any one of those descriptions then I am sure there is someone out there for you -- good luck.
On a brighter note, I do desire someone who is: employed, ambitious, creative, active, pleasant, educated, somewhat daring and attractive (at least to me).
I was married previously and it was a good thing. It is over now and we each moved on with no hard feelings (or kids!). I have just been cruising solo for the past few years and loving it (traveling, learning guitar, spending time with some awesome pets), but am really ready to find the right woman. This site is a terrific place to meet some very interesting people and am excited to connect with you.
