Date men from United States / California / Seal Beach, 44 year old

Date someone special from Seal Beach, United States. I am a CPA, never been married, had to work my way through college, and help my parents. I am an only child, I was adopted, and I owe my parents a lot, my father is deceased, and I help my mother.
IF YOU HAVE BAGGAGE THAT IS NOT RESOLVED OR IF YOU ARE NOT OVER ONE OF YOUR PREVIOUS RELATIONSHIPS THEN WE ARE NOT A GOOD MATCH!!!
I like to travel, invest in the environment, and our future. I have been an athlete "long distance" runner in high school and college. I still run, but now only for the fun of it.
I appreciate women who are confident, smart, and that can think on their own. Kindness and intelligence goes a long with me. My hobbies are running, bicycling, environmental issues especially petroleum, depletion, and pollution.
I don't watch much television. Because of my business I do a lot of work on the computer. I am a tax, financial, and business consultant, and my clients live from New York to California. Although sometimes I will watch "Dancing With The Stars" or the news.
I enjoy meeting new people, seeing new sites, and doing new things. Especially meeting people in different situations. People really fascinate me.
A good first date would be having dinner at a good restaurant like the Cheese Cake Factory or someplace similar and seeing where things go from there. I don't do coffee dates or meetings at the park. I don't make housecalls or meet someone like on a Saturday morning. The only dates I do are evening dates especially when starting out.
I am interested in meeting a woman who is her own person with her own ideas and her own personality. Gentleness and kindess are very important. A person who has some passions in life and is working to fulfill them, and someone that is educated.
I do not want to have children. All I'm looking for is a girlfriend for a serious long-term relationship, and that's it.
Intimacy and passion are very important to me in a relationship, and I am looking for someone that is ready for a serious relationship and that does not need to take things slowly. I understand that one can't expect everything on the first date but I am not going to wait six months either if you know what I mean.
NOW PLEASE READ THIS PARAGRAPH MOST OF ALL!
I AM ON THIS SITE TO FIND A SERIOUS RELATIONSHIP WITH SOMEONE AND WITH SOMEONE THAT IS READY TO HAVE A SERIOUS RELATIONSHIP, AND THAT IS ALL I AM ON HERE FOR. I AM NOT ON THIS SITE TO FIND FRIENDS, PEN-PALS, ACQUAINTANCES OR TO PLAY GAMES. I AM NOT INTERESTED IN PRETENDING OR TAKING THINGS SLOWLY. IF YOU ARE NOT SERIOUS OR IF YOUR INTENTIONS ARE NOT THE SAME AS MINE IN BEING ON HERE, PLEASE MOVE ON TO THE NEXT PROFILE!!!!
I wish everyone the best of luck.

Meet single man from Seal Beach, United States. Looking for my best friend to spend great times with and be positive role models to our families, friends, and people we encounter in everyday life.
I fell in love with the ocean and began surfing at the age of 7 in Newport Beach. Over the years I've surfed so many great breaks along the coast, Mexico, Hawaii, Tahiti and the North Shore.
Spending time in the ocean, traveling, at the beach, in the mountains, or just hanging out by the pool are the best places to be. I get along with people that are comfortable in their own skin and confident in who they are.
I know what I want and I'm looking forward to making a very special lady happy to wake up everyday and be surprised at what unfolds as we grow together!
Being an honest and loyal friend is a must for me. Fair weather friends are a drain, they take what they want and don't have a clue how to give in return.
I bring experience, wisdom, and a lot of fun to every relationship. As a life long entrepreneur, I am currently building an RV & Truck Paint, Retrofit, Repair and Service business that I'm very excited about! Over the years I've worked with people from all over the world.
My mother had a well known Silk Floral Supply, floral design classes, Import/Export business growing up and she also brought my brother and I into the Real Estate profession.
Technology has always fascinated me and I graduated with a B.S. in Computer Information Systems before I turned 21.
After 12 years in high tech, I turned my focus to Real Estate in Orange County, where I have been very successful over the last 11 years, but there have been a lot of changes that have given me the push I needed to grow and change.
My daughter Lily lives in Santa Barbara and she is my ANGEL! It's been so hard not having her with me full time, but I'm getting through it. One thing positive is that we're spending 100% one on one time when she is with me and we have gotten a lot closer because of this.
If you like to explore and have fun outdoors, then you'll definitely catch my interest.
Having a strong belief in God, faith, and helping others is also very important to me.
The favorite place that I've traveled to so far is Italy's Amalfi Coast, specifically Positano the island of Capri. That's not to say that Venice, Rome, Switzerland, Australia, London, Japan, Great Wall in China, Panama Canal, Tahiti, and the other places I've been were not amazing either :)
I like to laugh a lot and just be myself having fun and enjoying life. Positive Attitude is everything! I definitely don't get along with negative or judgmental people that are constantly putting others down to make themselves feel better.
I can get along with just about anyone if I choose to. And, I'm confident in most any situation. I've experienced the death of my mother, robbery, the birth of my daughter Lily and everything in between...there's nothing that phases me these days with people.
If you are looking for a great person with a purpose in life, full of energy, adventurous, healthy, highly self motivated, that tells the truth, with a big heart, let's talk.
Have a great day!
