I like lots of different music but especially rock & roll, oldies & country.
I like good times and want someone to share in those good times together.
I'm looking for someone to share some good times. I'm not looking for a committed relationship yet. I would like this person to be open, honest, fun loving, funny and have some of the same interests.
I am new to dating and this is the first time on one of these dating sites, so here it goes.
Let's see...

Sometimes I'm very quiet, I try to spend some time each day in thought and prayer. I think I'd like these same character traits in whoever I spend time with.

Meet a man from California, United States. , I am a content man ,secure, high energy ,intelligent,witty,
fun, with a good sence of humor . I have five beautiful daughters and one son
And great friends.
All my friends say I am easy to be with and they always enjoy my company.
Life is good and I enjoy every moment I have from sun up to sun down.
Now I have read a lot of profiles on this site,I want ,I want I want :) some of
The profiles to exhausting to read ,I guess some of it could be true everybody
Likes the something does not mean you will get along. the bottom line is you like being with each other
It's not even an age, like a girl told me ,it's not the age that counts it's the
Mileage ,most likely very truthful.
I must say for the most part sounds like you would just be a full time job truthfully, it's the bad
Habits people have that destroy relationships ,not walks on the beach or out to dinner and so on.
It's not money that makes love better,or the biggest house on the block, or sex, traveling, it's love
If you really have this then trufully nothing else matters,what ever happen to unconditional ,so what
Happens if one of the partners end up in a wheel chair ,is it over? Because most of the profiles have
So many i wants it's a turn off to me:) I can understand about being responsible,financially,intelligent
Takinging care of yourself ,but this does not mean life is secure, thing do happen out of our control
It's about how we handle ourselves under these type of situation that is important.
That's what I look at,and when you truly love each other all of the above fall in place,life would be easy if We
Understood this then we can apply it at the time you are faced with the obstical in life.
Do you remember the boy or girl next door,I could not tell you her age ,how her build was or if she was beautiful
All I remember when I grew up I wanted to merry her.Now look at us ,it's like looking for a used car
And ordering special equipment on it ,no dents and low mileage who are we fooling:))
When we learn to get out of ourselves then we will see what life is about, you see and hear better.
And most likely will choose better who we want to be with.
So if you play golf great if you don't learn ,it's a great sport for partners and with friends for starts ,lots to do in life .
Date single man from California, United States. Just looking for now -- not to sure of this way of meeting people. New to area and don't know anyone == looks like I will settle in the East county area although in San Diego now. divorced about a year and a half and figure it may be time to go out and see what is out there .. coming from a very long marriage and looking for the comfort of a one on one relationship filled with travel, dancing and fun... horses, Harleys and hot rods a plus
Meet a soulmate from California, United States. My Brit friend advised me to emulate here on Match.com the approach they use in London on these sites - modesty and clever self-effacement. He said, "Anyone can boast about himself or get all lovey-dovey in a profile." "But," I thought, "anyone can slime himself, so we haven't gained much of a distinction here."
Well, what the hay, let's give it a try. (Despite the fact that Match.com advises, "Focus on the positive!")
.
I'm a lousy sleeper and sometimes that leaves me an unhappy, misanthropic grump. I look like hell in the morning.
And speaking of misanthropy, I catch myself sneering on occasion. Which is way bad..
Can be a slob. (Jeez, I hate admitting that) When there is too much entropy, I will reimpose order, only to see it disintegrate again. Frustrating,but, them's the nature of things. Ask any physicist.
I can be over-conscientious about conserving resources which means I sometimes end up inconveniencing myself to save a few drops of water.
I really could go on, but we've probably already dug too deep a hole here.
And can I find a good word or two to be said about myself?
CPR certified.
.
I've think I have good taste and a sense of style. Which, unfortunately, sometimes seems to have a negative valuation down here on the coast. At least in Santa Cruz. Of course, we're talking taste here. That fellow in Birkenstock's is taking pity on me.
Good sense of rhythm, was a good dancer . . . in fact I feel most alive on the dance floor.
My large, close-knit extended family has perpetuated tradition for generations. That value would be nice to find in a partner.
There are several active friendships dating back to elementary school.
The opportunity to be involved in the lives of children again sounds good to me.
Honest and self-exacting.
Adventuresome, I'm great fun on the road and get on famously with foreigners. Quite fluent in French (spent time in Geneva as a child).
My profession means much to me and I see my responsibility there as sacred. Helping others is one of life's joys. My mate should know this one.
I put a lot of effort into fitness. Always have. At least since HS.
I aim to be understanding, a good listener, appreciative that we all have our struggles, and not critical.
A great date? Here's an idea I picked up from a Match "example of a good profile": We can put together something in the kitchen, savor some fine wine, put on the mellow music, kick back and get to know each other. Couldn't have said it better myself.
As far as relationship, all I can really control is myself - to be honest, thoughtful, fun and supportive. The rest will follow.
And, oh, also, world-class cuddler. Along those lines, my dog loves me. Maybe cuz I support animal rights and avoid eating them. At least the mammals among them.
Well, that was then and this is now: On 22 August 2011 I experienced a devastating mountain climbing accident, leading to traumatic brain injury, a reconstructed left arm, and a BKA - below the knee amputation. In one sense I'm 85% of the man I used to be, and, in another, perhaps, I'm more the man than I used to be.
Wow.
Date someone special from United States. My closest friends describe me as a handsome guy with a great sense of humor. Compassionate and kind, with a sense of adventure and wanderlust.
Watching kids and dogs play at the beach with total abandon is one of the things that makes me smile the most.
I'm proud that I've been able and blessed with a sense of curiosity and wonder of the world around me and the possibilities for exploration and education and to live life to the fullest.
I'm grateful that I am of sound mind and health, and appreciate and feel fortunate that I have survived so much.
Seeking an attractive, healthy, intelligent woman who also appreciates what the gift of life can bring and the possibilities that exist for exploration of self and of each other and of our planet. Honesty, integrity and a sense of humor are of the utmost importance.
I'm most passionate about exploring our planet, visiting other places and gaining an appreciation and education of those cultures and people and sharing ideas and lives.
I'm a very active outdoor person. You'll usually find me biking a back road, sailing my boat on the bay, or hiking a trail in the hills. I love being in, on or around water; sailing, snorkeling, diving, and body surfing (the last three when it's warm of course). Love to travel, usually to tropical or subtropical areas(warm water), but plan on seeing as much of this planet as a lifetime will permit.
If you don't have current photos, please don't contact me. Chemistry is important.
Also, NO WINKS! Surely you can take the time to write a little something.

Ideal Date
A special meeting that is agreeable for both of us for a cup of coffee or a glass of wine....
What are you waiting for?
Take a chance! I Hope to hear from you :)
Warmly with anticipation, Bill in Burlingame
Date single man from United States. I'm a good guy, well-read and educated in many ways. Have a lot of interests, museums, travel, photography, movies, working with kids, classical music and concerts, films, talking about anything and being around a lovely, fun woman. I buy flowers to make any week night a special one, treat a woman like a golden flower: to be admired, looked at and touched. Am monogamous, do not cheat, and can be relied upon to back you to the max.
Can be taken out in and shown in public without a leash or blinders, a good dresser and groomer, value chivalry as an art form rather than an obligation. Also am a volunteer officer for my profession and give of myself. A young thinker, the glass is mostly half full (except when you drink from it, then it's less). High ideals with practical applications, patient, aware of a woman's needs being different from a man's.
Have been to Europe and China, the best memories are the canals of Amsterdam and standing in the rain in Nanjing bargaining for a Song Dynasty bowl in a language I didn't understand. Love to travel take weekend trips either flying or driving, cruises, traveling by horse-back, small dinosaur or riding large dogs :) . An avid tennis player, badminton, hiking anywhere, riding the Cannondale for 20 miles, gym, and so on.
This summer I will lead a tour through the Southwest to investigate several Anasazi ruins, looking for a people who literally disappeared off the map (actually, we know where they went, but it's a secret - unless you go on the tour)
She's level-headed and has common sense, pretty, thoughtful and considerate, evolved and involved and has solutions that will effect in a positive way, and has retained a good sense of humor to view the world through eyes that smile.
I seek the last great relationship of my life, someone to settle down with for the duration, laugh, talk, plan and play, there are concerts to be heard, horses to be ridden, tennis balls to be hit, incidents to be laughed about, dinners to be enjoyed . . .
Meet a soulmate from United States. I am a somewhat retired former accountant and former Mexican restaurant and candy store owner. If you count the number of years that I have logged on this earth, I am an adult, however, mentally I have been age 24 for almost 40 years. I had a rather unique early childhood and early life experiences that have shaped this thinking and it has worked well for me. I believe that life was meant to be enjoyed and if you keep a positive attitude, you can enjoy it forever. All of these boxes that are supposed to be "checked" in this questionnaire don't seem to fit ME. I enjoy flying my plane, riding my Harley, beach towns, dining out, amusement parks, boardwalks, 4 star restaurants, greasy spoons and hometown diners. I like Los Angeles (Olvera Street, Union Station, 4th of July at the Hollywood Bowl, all of the beach piers, the Griffith Park Observatory, Westwood Memorial Park, Farmers Market and gobs of restaurants & nightlife) but I'm living in San Luis Obispo and enjoying that as well. I like exploring unusual and out of the way places. I enjoy cooking although owning a restaurant with a full commercial kitchen really spoiled me in that regard. Most important to me is spending quality time with my friends. I have precious few friends but those that I have are loyal to me and I, in turn, am loyal to them. My friends are like family to me. And I am here looking for one very special friend.
Traveling, for the sake of traveling, is major fun for me. Often I don't care about the destination. I would like to try taking a train trip across the US or just up the west coast. I've always wanted to take a trip by driving an eighteen wheeler. A tramp steamer might also be an adventure. I love weekend excursions. I flew the little blue and white plane that is in the photos from California to Florida in November, 2011, and it was an absolute RIOT. I am looking for a companion who enjoys at least SOME of the same things that I enjoy; if you don't enjoy ALL of them, then I hope you will understand why I MAY sometimes need space and some quiet time by myself. (Unlike some small puppy dogs, I can be trusted if left alone and I won't stray!) I, in turn, will respect you for who you are; and I don't criticize or nit-pick. I am looking for someone who will want to think of me in the morning, think of me at night and all of the time in between; and, I will be thinking of you at those same times. I offer these precious things: friendship, companionship, devotion, intelligent conversation, laughter, an occasional bouquet of red roses and a cute card on a special day; anything beyond those,well......, we'll have to wait and see. Oh yes. I am a CPA. I can do your tax return for free.
