- About Me:
-
I am a thinker and doer! I am a retired university professor, retired military officer/commander, TV/Radio psychologist, sports psychologist for pro sports, assistant movie director, and author. My book sold on Amazon and I recently sold my company in Brazil. “I’m so dumb I don’t know what I can’t do it” because I’m logical, goal centered, prayerful and will figure it out! My goal now is to find a classy, gracious, mentally and physically fit "lady" to spend my life with. I serve on several boards of directors for the arts and sciences, including classical dance, theater, opera, symphony as well as in civic and community organizations. I lived throughout the US, HI, Japan, Guam, Philippines, Brazil, Mexico. Europe, China, Dubai, Caribbean are still on my bucket list. I live 5 blocks from the beach and in Suisun City but open to relocation. Although I lived and owned ocean view homes in Hawaii so it remains my favorite vacation destination but anywhere the lady in my life likes and makes her happy will become #1 for me!
I am religious but not self righteous or judgmental. I'm calm so I work hard to avoid conflict. Finding true love and the "ONE" is not easy so age and distance are not major factors for me.
I open doors, seat you, and do whatever I can to make you feel safe, protected and happy in my company. I want to make you happy so tell me what that is! I believe in active listening joint decision making and compromise. We decide what is best for our relationship by how much time we spend together. I'll never be forceful, profane, do or say anything inappropriate. I love humor, smiles and laughter. I will always show you how special and honored I am to be with you. I'm not too proud to ask or take advice from women!

I admire intelligent, capable, caring women of character regardless of education, background or occupation. I respect, love, protect, care for, listen to, learn from, honor and elevate women! I seek a companion to plan trips/cruises around the world, eat exotic foods enjoy other cultures and languages. I hope you like reading and stimulating intellectual conversation. She can always share her life, work, goals and issues with me!
There is no perfect match but if there was it would be determined by our love of the gospel, mutual chemistry, compatibility and a deep love for each other over time otherwise listing qualities before meeting is compiling a “wish list” which may overlook the right person for you and prevent a meaningful relationship from occurring. Friendship, a LTR (long term relationship), true love, engagement and marriage is my goal! I'm looking for an equal partner. Woman who are retired or working with the ability to get away for adventure, dancing or just have fun. It would be nice if she joys the arts and society functions but looks just as stunning in jeans, shorts or athletic gear! I'm into family, grandkids, friends and holidays. I enjoy sports but your needs and time with me will ALWAYS come first! Is spiritual, loves God, all people, votes, volunteers for community/civic events and protects our planet. Is up for a hike, exercise, dance and can teach me gardening. Likes most music including country! Loyalty and honesty are critical! I'm healthy, active, happy, fun, open-minded, caring and financially secure looking for an equal partner. Most important is be a good woman willing to join me to do the work it takes to make us “perfect” for each other. She doesn’t have to be perfect or change herself to be with me but it would be nice if she is drama free, calm, feminine yet self confident woman who loves holding hands, movies, fireplace, beach strolls, mountain views, star gazing, sight-seeing, sports, outdoors and doing DIY projects and most of all going to church and the temple. She must be open to phone calls, FaceTime and meeting in public place. If you think we have enough in common let’s talk to see where it goes.
I will support your dreams and goals. My default: a simple life that we create together that includes our families. So, if you are real, sincere and want to meet a sincere honest guy that will accept you as you are, listen to and treat you as a Queen with respect and be 100% exclusive with only you--please think and pray about it and then contact me. Online dating is exhausting and time consuming. Because there are many fakes on dating sights, I put it all upfront to save you time and you will know if "things" will click between us! My photos are current so you won't be disappointed or surprised when and if we meet. I am truly who and what I wrote yet totally open to love and all that it entails.

I grew up in a Southern Baptist home with gospel music and church services but even as a kid I felt something was missing. For 43 years I searched for whatever that was. And one day on an airplane trip to Hawaii I met a man that had the key to what I was looking for all my life. The day my tires touched the Mission Viejo, CA stake center driveway in 1990 I knew in my heart, mind and soul I had found my church home for life. I had studied and joined at least 7 different religion searching. It was first Sunday. I cried all through sacrament. When I walked into the high priest group room, I felt like Christ would have chosen some of these men to be his disciples. At the conclusion of the lesson, I requested to be baptized. It surprised the group leader and we went to see the bishop who was also surprised. He asked “do you even know the name of our church?” I said No, I don’t care but I want to be baptized today? I was baptized 3 days later by the brother I met on the plane and since have served as a temple ordinance worker 4 times and in almost every leadership calling in the church in addition to being hired as psychology professor at BYU Hawaii.
My favorite scripture are the entire Book of Mormon, particularly Nephi and Alma, D&C Chapter 84 and the 23rd Psalms which my mother taught all her children to read at the age of 3. The knowledge of the Plan of Happiness and Salvation was what I was searching for since my childhood and now that I have found it know it to be true, I live it every day of my life and I pray I will find a companion who feels and lives the same way.
