Date men and women from United States / California / San Luis Obispo, 45 year old

Date a soulmate from United States. Friends describe me as quiet and easy going. I enjoy my work and am secure. I'm a dedicated dad and love raising my kids with whom I spend quite a bit of time. I like challenges and going that extra step, but all the while keeping things relatively simple. I believe good relationships are built on mutual interests and respect but also believe that having different interests, and being able to share them is even better.
I am looking for a partner to enjoy life with and build a longterm relationship, maybe more family. I like spontaneity as much as routines. I don't mind being lazy watching movies munching on a bag of popcorn or get lost in interesting late night conversation.
I do prefer to be active and outdoors doing water and field sports. I'm not much of a hiker but like to explore. I spend a few weeks in Hawaii every year or two, and I enjoy traveling in general.

Meet someone special from United States. I am a happy, down to earth guy who likes some adventure as well as enjoy the special moments of everyday life. I have two sons which will be going to school here in SLO. I just retired from the Army and moved here from Texas to be closer to them. They visit me regularly, and they mean the world to me. I have plenty of room in my life for a woman who has goals, kids, career and the other things that come with life. Life is about living, sharing life's joys and is a gift worth nurturing. I like to have a casual lunch and take walk or hike. I enjoy a date night out with dinner, movies or music. A good night is also cooking and watching a movie at home too. I have though, already, been exploring some of the great outdoor activities here in the Central Coast. I've been Surfing, Hiking, Mountain Biking, Horse back riding in Cambria, shooting at the Range and also playing a little Golf. I would like to be able to enjoy some of these things with a special woman.

Date single man from United States. I am a man of great passions and interests, the term Renaissance man is used on my regularly. I have a true lust for life and try to immerse myself in it.

As a trained chef, I enjoy cooking for others and always make sure to pair it with a great bottle of wine. Optimism is just in my nature. Why be downcast?

Also as mentioned earlier I want someone who is on a continual path of self-growth both spiritually and intellectually and she knows that learning is a lifelong endeavor. She has figured out that you should look at what you add to the relationship as opposed to what you can get out of it. She's active, fit and takes good care of herself.

Meet people from United States. Just re-activated after being off for years.. looked at my 'what am I looking for' and it hasn't changed:
A lot of the profiles I read have specific ideas about the person they want to meet, but I think that is a bit narrow a view. What makes a match between people is that special something, and I am not sure it can be defined and it is different in every relationship you have. So, I am not sure it matters to me what job a person has, or how much they make, or if they have kids or not. If I was looking for anything I would say that it would be a connection, spark, something. I would say I am not really �looking’ for anything other than to meet some people, get to know them, and see what develops. No pressure, no drama. This is supposed to be fun!
I work my tail off in an very engaging career so I like strong people who know what they like and don't miss the moments of life. If you don't go out and make life happen, it happens to you. I am a very fortunate guy looking to add something to an amazing life.

Meet someone special from San Luis Obispo, United States. What I really want? Someone I can dig my heels into and love with all my being. I am communicative, raw, honest, open, spiritual, sensitive, fun, funny, but know when to be serious. I absolutely LOVE the ocean. My favorite combination is live music at the ocean, so I can often be found at avila on Friday night or Sunday afternoon. I enjoy doing nothing, especially when it is in the arms of my man, as well as want to experience great adventure. One thing I REALLY want to do is river raft through the Grand Canyon. I want to learn to cook and learn about wine and work with stained glass. I want to travel more. What I'm looking for? A man who will love me with every fiber in his soul. A man who loves God. A man who has a strong side but isn't pushy or controlling. I want to feel free to wear no make-up, to eat popcorn for dinner, to wake you up in the middle of the night because I need to be held, to share my fears, but mostly to just be myself. I am completely loyal and wildly faithful. Hm, I think that's it. Good luck to all of us trying to find our match!

Date men and women from San Luis Obispo, United States. With me, what you see is what you get. I'm straight-forward, honest and confident. I'm highly spontaneous, so I hope you can keep up!
What else?
Well, I'm attracted to men who are strong, confident and into staying in shape. A healthy mind, body and soul are important. Even though I am an active person, I believe in finding time for a thinking-of-you call or text. I'm interested in finding a strong connection, and would like to meet someone who feels the same.
Like most people, I have some 'deal breakers'. I'm not into smoking or someone who drinks regularly. I value responsibility in a partner and could only find myself being with a man who has an open heart and no leftover past-relationship emotional baggage. I want to look forward to the future!
I picture myself laughing with a down to earth man full of integrity and happiness. I imagine that we have a close, emotional and mental connection - we're best friends. Friendship and family are big must-haves for me. I know how important my family is. My son is my world, so someone who puts a lot of love into family is someone I definitely look forward to meeting!
