Date people from California, United States. Comes to meeting people from different cultures. A lot of traveling the world for business and pleasure.
Heavily involved in the field of culture, performing arts, film and TV, interdisciplinary, visual arts and more.
Meet a man from California, United States. I was born in upstate NY but have lived in California since 1968. I lived in the Central Coast area (Santa Maria-San Luis Obispo) until 1994 when I moved to the Bay Area.
I enjoy exercising on a daily basis....whether it includes the gym, golf, bike riding, running, hiking, or tennis. My favorite sport is football and I play in one fantasy football league. Also, I play organized softball at least one night a week.
I am looking for someone to have fun with whether that may include a walk around Lafayette Resevoir and a picnic lunch, a rodeo, golf, dinner, a museum, a bike ride, playing at the beach, an art exhibit, the theatre, or taking off for a weekend. If the fun turns into something more thats a bonus........if not, then meeting new friends and engaging in new experiences is a bonus of a different kind.
You need to have a good sense of humor (and be able to laugh at yourself)....... and being quick witted would also be a good survival skill to possess or you may be going down for the count in one of the early rounds.
A sincere girl next door type is always refreshing, "High Maintenance" need not apply. Being able to get a little dirty and sweaty at times will also shine on the old resume, as long as you are just as comfortable in a more formal setting when the time is right.
An above-average intelligence is always welcome, but not necessary......... a semi-high intelligence is a great characteristic and can be a very sexy quality too...........Talk Nerdy to Me : )
If you golf, or you are willing to learn, that gets you double bonus points. I am not an avid golfer, but I really enjoy it when I play two to three times a month and its a fun and relaxing environment to share with a friend or significant other. And, you can't take the game too seriously, because I don't.........there are no bad days on the golf course, as scores don't really matter.
Match is a little like shopping for a car, as it can be a major purchase in your life. There certainly are those luxury models out there which are constant maintenance and always want, or think that they need, a new shiney part (as mentioned earlier, I'm not shopping in that part of the car lot, because Big Daddy ain't flippin' the bill while you sit on your chair duster). Then there are the family sedans (nice dependable cars) that have a little bit of everything (always a good purchase). And of course, there are your sportier models too which can be fast, fun and sometimes a little dangerous but a work in progress can always be fine tuned and tamed (especially the topless models) to the driver's liking.
All in all, most models will make a good fit in any garage, if driven and cared for correctly. Just make sure there is some good tread left on your tires, your engine isn't revving 24/7 and you run on a high octane gas (no junk food junkies). AND PLEASE, NO TIRE KICKERS!! .......if interested, you may schedule a test drive at our front receptionist's desk.
I like all types of music but prefer country and rock & roll.
I love all animals, but dogs are definitely on the top of my list followed by horses and ring-tailed lemurs (do you own a ring tailed lemur?.........of course not, everyone knows that you only lease a ring tailed lemur?)
If you don't mention the lemurs I'll know you didn't read the entire profile, even though its fairly short, and that will cost you one "Fun" demerit (by the way, "fun" demerits are not easy to rebound from either......you'll have to really earn it!!)
Date people from Martinez, United States. Okay, describe myself. I am in very good health, knock on wood. I like to cycle(road bike), run, hike, still play softball, play basketball.
I have 2 kids, a son 22 and a daughter 20. They are are pretty much on their own anymore.
I am just looking for someone who is easy going, likes to travel, be it a spontaneous getaway(Vegas,Tahoe), or a planned trip abroad(Italy??). Staying home is also nice, I can cook.
If you were to ask my friends about me, they would say I am a really good guy, I am loyal, family oriented, and a person you can count on through thick and thin, I've got your back.
I believe in manners, as in I open doors, pull out chairs, walk on the street side of the sidewalk just to name a few.
All in all after reading many of the profiles here on match, I think I am the kind of guy a LOT of you ladys are looking for. Go ahead write back, I just may be the guy.
Meet a man from Martinez, United States. First I only am interested in meeting people within the S.F. Bay area, with that being said.
A little about me…I love going out and having a nice time. I enjoy dining out, spending weekends in Monterey, Capitola, and hanging out near the beach. I have been known to be spontaneous and love creative romantic encounters with that special person in my life. (Is it you?) My passion is writing poetry and I have just recently published my first book. I'm a very spiritual person and it reflects in my writing.
I also enjoy playing drums, golfing, playing tennis, camping, cooking, entertaining, and going to sporting events. My favorite sports include Indy car racing at the Laguna Seca Raceway and baseball at Pac Bell Park. I love spending time with family and friends and am looking for a partner with whom I might share these experiences. If you are a positive person who is interested in a serious solid relationship, please write. I’m always open to friendship as well.
Date someone special from Martinez, United States. I'm an intelligent, fun and looking for the same. I'm looking for a mate and a friend; someone I can share my life experiences with. My friends would describe me as entertaining, considerate, fun and comfortable in all settings.
Meet a soulmate from Martinez, United States. I am a honest man who cares for his family and children. I am passionate about my work and believe with a little hard work and dedication anything can be accomplished. One of my greatest accomplishments is raising my two kids and putting them through college on my own. I like making jokes and having a good laugh. I love to cook, watch movies, and ride motorcycles. I want to find someone who wants to not only be my best friend but to find a companion to enjoy life with. I plan to retire in the next few years and would love to find someone that loves to travel and try new things. I want to find a women with a beautiful personality who I can spend time with and learn what life has to offer together.
Date single man from California, United States. I would rather have friends write this, but here it goes. I love life and passionate about my family, friends and everyone I meet. I have a very creative mind and have had this trait since I was very young. I have always liked being unique or adding a little flair or fun in everything I do. I have always been somewhat of the center of attention but always making sure I was not taking the stage from anyone that was in the mood to express their confident nature or rare other side (that is always fun to see). I also enjoy being quiet at times and following the flow of others. I am active and I love being outdoors. I need sun all the time, or a window to look out from. I’m young at heart and still feel like I’m 25. My spiritual side has never been seen by going to church but rather how I treat others and life itself. I respect everyone’s beliefs and welcome them.
I’m proud to be me and everything I’ve accomplished with exception of finding my best friend in life. Please don’t get me wrong, I have many friends which are like my family and are treated as such. I’m talking about my partner in life. I feel the reason why there are so many divorces in this world is that people get confused by sexual attraction as being the ticket to love and happiness. I’m a very sensual person and fill this is a major component in maintaining an ever lasting relationship, but being best friends is what I want. I have come close to marriage twice, but the friendship element was not mutual and therefore the relationships did not go further……
I’m looking to share and learn from my partner and experience what life offers. That said, I believe that part of what makes a relationship successful is the unique contribution of each individual. Each brings their unique experiences and dynamic, so I think it's important for each individual to have their own space to enhance or seek to better their own person.
I feel a relationship should be open and honest and that we both share everything and all tasks. If she needs something, I'm there and if I need something she is there. I'll be her shopping buddy or hold her canvas as she paints and she will hold a wrench while I tune up the boat motor or give me a glass of wine while I'm cooking a prime rib dinner.
I love kids! And wished I had my own, but that never panned out for me. However, I’m blessed to have many friends who have kids and they all call me uncle Kevin. I now know what grandparents feel like. What a blast!
I love my job it involves design and solving my customers problems. I currently have a home in the bay area and have an office in Alameda, Granite Bay and in my home. I'm actually interested in finding a home in the foothills with some land and view of the sierras.
Appreciate you reading, I can't wait to meet you.
Meet men and women from California, United States. If you enjoy movies as much as I do, you might recognize that quote.
A little about me:
- A good hike, not a triathlon
- The Big Bang Theory, not Keeping up with the Kardashians
- The Economist, not People
- Just not Adam Sandler
- Charlize Theron, not Jenny McCarthy
- Mary Ann, not Ginger
- The Caribbean, not Hawaii (though I agree, Hawaii is pretty great...)
- shorts and barbecues, not tuxedos and cocktails
- Ferraris, not Lamborghinis (bonus points if you understand this one)
- Dogs, not cats
- The beach, AND the mountains!
- INTJ
I enjoy movies and theater. Love the water and almost any activity on it. A week in the tropics is great. Two weeks is heaven. If I ever try three weeks, I probably won't come back. Have traveled much of the world and anxious to see the rest. Passport required. Prague and Bavaria this fall, the Caribbean next spring, and Thailand (visiting friends) later in 2013.
My pictures are all from the last 2-3 years. And yes, my hair is getting pretty grey. My profile picture and the one on the sail boat are from an awesome week-long sailing trip on a 40 foot catamaran in the Bahamas last year with some of the best people ever. I loved it, and I'm anxiously working with my friends to get another sailing trip going, but we're having trouble with our schedules (but I won't give up!). Most of the other beach shots are from St. Martin in 2009. Did I mention that I really like the tropics?
Good luck to all.
Date people from United States. I am fun-loving person who has a great sense of humor and looking for the same. A taste for adventure and the different, however nothing life-threatening. I look at life at a different angle, and feel that I am kind-hearted, without a mean streak.
Never a harsh word, I tend to be a talker outer.
Meet someone special from United States. Tall dark and handsome, well two out of the threes not bad. I think I am fun and funny, but not obnoxious. I am a romantic, and enjoy bringing that into a relationship. I'm not a professional dater, so I may be a bit clumsy at times, I hope to get better. AS far as thing I do to fill my open time, I like to kayak in some of the local lakes or I love the Sierras especially Silver Lake!!!! Of coarse I like long walks on the beach, and I like snorkeling, surfing " nothing crazy" all in warm water. I love warm weather and the sun and anything outdoors. I like working in the yard until it becomes work, I go on hikes in the area and love to explore Point Reyes area and anything in the high Sierras. In the winter on a cold and crappy weather weekend and its snowing real good in the mountains I like to take the train to Truckee and spend the night in a local place with a lot of blankets. Winter is also a good time for a hot tub and the fireplace, and maybe a good movie.
In my business I have allot of younger people working with me and for me, there youth and energy is a part of me. I found out I need a partner who is also young at heart , and can keep the pace that a fun and full life requires. Don't get me wrong I can bring it down several notches, I enjoy art and art galleries, museums and craft fairs. Creativity and the art and design world is a big part of my life, personal and in my business.
I have two grown children, other people refer to them as adults, I still find it hard to believe. A boy and a girl, 28 and 26 and they DO NOT live at my home they have there own. I have lived in the bay area since1963 we migrated via covered wagon from L.A. area "thank god", I think that was the form of travel in those days. I grew up in Concord, had a family, built a home in Alamo in the 80s got a divorce at the turn of the century and now I landed in Martinez, I like it here, real quiet small town feel.
OK lets get back to romance, as I said I am a romantic, I think it keeps a relationship fresh and new. I love to give and receive affection. I consider myself a very giving and loving person in all aspects of a relationship. Im a hand holder not a public grouper, I will open your door, pull out your chair and pay the bill.
Looking forward to meeting that right person
