Date single man from Los Gatos, United States. What seems like a lifetime ago, I thought I knew what I wanted in a mate and it worked for many years. But life has a way of sculpting a person and pealing away the pretense and then one comes to a point where one knows exactly what kind of person will be a good fit and sometimes it's not the one you hooked up with in your 20's. The strange thing is that it is practically impossible to put who that person is into words, but you know who that person is when you see them and talk with them for a while. Me, I was in a very regimented industry for many years and finally got out about 10 years ago and now run a successful business. It takes a lot of time but I really love my work and enjoy all that it entails. I'm looking for someone who is looking for a guy like me-that is kind of a lame statement, but I think it is profoundly true. Someone that is a little smarter than me, better looking than me and enjoys me. Someone who is stylish, creative, maybe likes to cook, likes to live in a light and uplifting space, likes to travel, see live music, meet people, have dinner parties (I am a good assistant) likes foot massages, is tactile and likes to hug and be physically close, someone whose smell I like and vice versa...someone sexy, subtle, warm and feminine. I'd like to meet someone that has been through adversity and has come out the other side with some grace intact along with the humility that comes with realizing you aren't perfect, but still believes that it is good to strive for perfection without going over the top. Someone that is pretty much easy going and evolved and aware of others, whose nose isn't buried in their iphone, but still loves their iphone.
What am I like....well I like to be happy, live a simple but interesting life, play as much as I can without getting all played out, hang with my kids when they are being somewhat human :). listen to you talk about your day or what is buggin you or what you are interested in...have you take an interest in my life, my work, my dreams. Share a life with someone special, I guess.

Meet a man from United States. I like to be a gentleman and I enjoy treating a woman with honor and respect. I have traditional values, such as kindness and honesty and I believe a man should cherish his woman. But hey, I'm also a guy, and I do have my faults... I have two beautiful daughters ages 14 and 11 who I am very close to, but they live with their mother so I don't get to see them as much as I'd like. I try to be modest and I have a good temper - I don't get angry because anger never helps. Most of all, I have a big heart and a lot of love to give. I like to find the joy in each day and share it with someone that can appreciate it as I do.
I am very optimistic and I love life! I try to stay positive and keep my heart and mind open to receive life's splendor. I love living in the Bay Area and California and I try to enjoy as much of it as I can. I enjoy being outdoors, spending time with friends and family, simply enjoying life. I love skiing, hiking, camping, beaches, sunshine, rain and snow. I ski and play soccer, and I enjoy cooking, gardening and traveling. And I can't forget about sitting by the fire with my sweetie!
I’m looking for a woman that appreciates the beauty and joy that is all around us and enjoys the simple elegance we are offered by each day.

I like to dress up and go to the city or hit the trails and get dirty. I am very open minded and would love to try new experiences and adventures with a warm-hearted woman. Whatever it is I think life is so much better shared by two. Care to join me?
Date someone special from California, United States. About me? I'm lucky. One time at Valley Fair mall I entered a drawing and won the grand prize out of 10,000 entries - a nice trip to Cabo. I was a big deal on my cul de sac for an entire week. Until my next door neighbor won $168 million in the lottery. I wasn't such a big deal any more. And didn't see even a dollar of neighbor-love. In fact - he even asked for his rusty hedge trimmer back. True story. Still, I feel lucky. I have incredible friends and a great family. I love my boys dearly and am trying hard to prepare them for life. They are 13 and 15 and at dinner awhile back my oldest asked what “virgin” meant. I took a deep breath and carefully explained that until a person has a sexual experience they are considered a virgin. I went on to articulate how some people choose to hold onto this virginity until marriage and how that is an individual’s choice and how sex is something to consider carefully as you get to that age and time in your life. That led me to a delicate review of unwanted pregnancy and STDs and how it could change their lives and so on. He sat quietly and listened and after a good 5 minutes I asked him if that answered his question. He said, “Um, I guess so, but I was just wondering because the salad dressing bottle says Extra Virgin Olive Oil on it.” Sort of sums up fatherhood for me…
I keep fit, eat pretty healthy and strive for a balanced life. In fact – that’s why I started yoga. I’ve learned it’s not just for skinny, spiritual people that like wearing tight, black outfits. I find it has improved my flexibility, balance and also great for calming the mind – and plus I’ve discovered a lot of new types of granola and learned some women prefer not to use deodorant. Had no idea.
I can get along with just about anyone. I can tie a cherry stem in a knot with my tongue. I appreciate routines but love trying new things and there are many things I want to learn still, and ways in which I want to grow. I have my boys half-time, and lately when they are with me all of a sudden they’d rather be with their buddies, unless they need spending $ - then I’m popular in my house. All this to say I’m it’s a good time to meet someone special.
I’m looking to find someone who communicates openly. She has dealt with her past. She can be light-hearted and fun but also intimate and loving. She would be healthy for my kids to be around some day. She doesn’t need a man to help define her – but to appreciate her for who she is. She often considers applying deodorant as part of her daily routine.
I believe there is something beautiful inside every person and if we appear to match-up I look forward to discovering and appreciating the beauty in you, and sharing the best of me.

Date a man from United States. [My best friend about me. I did ask for this.] Looks? Check. Cycling? Check. Vinophile? Check. Intelligent? Supercheck. Employed/financially independent? Check. Funny? Check. Handyman? Check. Romantic? Check. Bleeding heart liberal? Check. (OK, just thought I'd tease you on that one, but hey fits right in NoCal!).
[Me about me] While I tend to agree with my buddy, I can't pretend I'm for everybody. I don't think I'd be here if I were. In fact, what I'd shoot for -- the style and charm from the old movies with modern competence, say if Bogart (without the smoking) were Batman (without the Robin) -- would sound odd (or phony) to many. But I'm only semi--kidding. I'm at home and happy in many worlds. I attended a friend's performance of a Bach chorale. I had my first trumpet recital a couple weeks ago. I've climbed Half-Dome the hard way. I completed the 2011 Wildflower Half Ironman. I'll actually carry a lady's bags to her car. I can do lots of things: build bicycles; plumb, wire, and tile a bathroom; ride a Ducati; ice climb (years ago); and suit up for a charity event, symphony, or a brake job. I've even bottled a few barrels of wine under my own label (for fun, not profit). I’ve an odd, off-beat sense of humor. I like silly puns (We’re going to Greece! And swim the English Channel?). I am calm when bad things happen - even when I'm the cause (accidentally, of course). I was raised in the Midwest and left as soon as I realized I could live in places like San Francisco, which happened while I was living in Italy. My current fun activities are heavily centered on cycling, with weekly yoga to compensate, and trumpet lessons. I'm well traveled (Europe - from Crete to the Arctic Circle. Japan, some. Turkey - to bookend Asia.). I’ve lived and worked and played and eaten in a number of countries (the UK, France, Germany, Northern Italy, Northern Sweden, Northern Kentucky, Southeastern Michigan), so I'm comfortable with new and unusual people and situations. I'm occasionally spontaneous to the point of buying a ticket and taking off for a different continent, but the common denominator for how I prefer to spend my time is a table of food and drink surrounded on all sides by friends.
No one has ever said about me: “I can never get him to go (or do) [name it, except for illegal activities - no drugs of any kind allowed] with me” (and, yes, I’ve had a fiance before, and a number of girlfriends or significant others, though I think we need a more elegant name). I try to limit my hypocrisy and am aware that my "no drugs or smoking" is at odds with my wine consumption (in respect to drinking, "regular" means "often with dinner," not hourly). I'm looking for someone who wants to be an enthusiastic and equal participant with, not observer of, the person they imagine from this intro.
I do have some time. I'm not aging too quickly. My profile picture is from March. I've been told, by people who are free to say worse, that I look better than my photos. I hope you want to find out. I'll know the right thing when it happens. And I think it will happen - maybe not here, maybe not now, but soon -- same Bat-time, same Bat-channel.
