I'm very new to online dating,in fact this is my first profile so please be patient with me.i took some time away from this site recently because of a terrible accident i had at work so even though i check the site often i havent been in touch with many of you. since i'm still learning to type i'll be short.i know how to love and how to enjoy life,though i'm not in a rush i want to be on the same page as you from the time we rise until the time we turn in.I'm looking for someone who eventually wants the "notebook" kind of love.since i love & respect myself,my 18 year old son and all of my family & friends i'll save all the intimate verbage for later but please know that chemistry & compatible intamacy is very important to me,i love ladies of all types and personalities.though chemistry is vital to me there are so many other things that are just as important, like a woman who can love with her heart and not just her body,desire to grow with each other,giant sense of humor,ect,ect,if you are a genuine person,know & practice love, humor and kindness then you are someone i can relate to.if you are growing on a regular basis and love people, laughing out loud and having fun then i would find you attractive.i would love someone to scuba dive the world with,iv'e done the blue hole in guam, the mahi in hawaii, the china sea in thailand,the kelp forest in monterey and i love to dive for abalone on california's north coast.i plan on diving well into my 70's so if you'd like to join me diving and you love to entertain with good food & wine,laugh on a regular basis and enjoy playful sarcasim when appropriate you'll love that about me.i can be an introvert but i'm an extrovert by nature and i'm as outgoing as i would like or need to be.diversity is a big part of my life from relationships iv'e manifested to hobbies,food i enjoy and things that interest me.iv'e been blessed with a truly beautiful family who helps each other with anything & everything.my mother & son recently spent 9 straight days sleeping in a waiting room while i was hospitalized,my mother and her loving ways have influenced the way i've lived my life since childhood,my father and his work ethic & philosophy about life have also had a profound effect on me and its the balance between them that has allowed me to be me.i could go on & on but i was trying to be short so i hope you can get an idea of who i am, where i'm going and what i'm looking for.please, if your looking for something different than me, be considerate of my time and help me find mrs. right,i may not find her here but i think this concept could be very efficient. god bless all of you.MMMMUAAHHH!

being a true foodie i'd have to say we'd have to break bread! maybe just coffee or tea but we would treat our pallate' to something nice while we talk & get to know each other.it could be dinner at BIX'S on gold st. in sf. or fresh abalone at ocean cove campsite on the sonoma coast,i'll be happy to just talk and get to know you.
