Hi :>)
I'M SEEKING A WONDERFUL WOMAN FOR LOVE AND MARRIAGE and FUN!
I'm just your average, Jeep driving, blue collar type - a flower shop owner and a nice guy just looking to meet a nice lady for love, romance, fun and hopefully marriage.
A woman to love and to cherish and adore and to do all the little things for...a serious,(but fun) relationship & marriage forever! I was married twice and I've been divorced more than 10 years...It didn't work out with my first wife, but I'm fortunate to have 2 great kids and 3 cute, little grandsons! In the case of my second wife - I was stupid and left a wonderful woman and her great kids - just dumb! I won't make that mistake again!
I love dogs and even cats (LOL!), ...also horses and most other animals from a distance - cute little monkeys especially fascinate me!
I don't fly, but do like to take drive trips, train trips (very romantic...plug in your lap top and cell phone, great meals, etc) , and I used to cruise, but don't know about a cruise anymore!
I'm not a big money guy, so I can't afford to retire (contrary to what might have been reported in a tv interview) - not that I would want to, anyway - I like working! At different times, I've owned multiple flower shops, and have an off shoot business of my flower business - DeadFlowers.US ...which was very busy around April Fool's Day and Friday the 13th! ;>) Also, I've owned a small convenient store and been a very successful event planner!
I'm planning to be living in the San Diegoarea (or Ft Lauderdale as a distant 2nd choice), so she would have to be interested in moving ... probably to California - I Iived there for more than 10 years and loved it...the weather is perfect, the Pacific Ocean is right there, mountains, desert, scenery, flowers, etc., and it's close to Las Vegas, LA, San Francisco, and some coastal islands. I've also lived in Florida, and that's 2nd best, but ok - I might possibly consider living there ...near the ocean. :>)
I like most music and love to sing out loud with the music blasting and the top down! Like lots of tv - PBS, NEWS, DISCOVERY, HISTORY, Antiques Road Show and Animal Planet, sitcoms, etc. Museums, concerts, the beach, and yard sales are also things that I like.
I'm not a dancer, but I will dance; can't fix a thing but will do windows; not a player, but I like to play; am a very casual dresser (jeans - t shirts) but can clean up real good and own a couple of tux's!
I don't do drugs or smoke, and wouldn't want a heeavy smoker.
A lady deserves to be treated with respect but I also want her to be my playmate... I like doing the little things for her, walking holding hands in public or in the movie theater, gazing into her eyes as I sit opposite her in a cozy restaurant... I like cuddling, kissing, and spooning are all things that I love and miss with a special woman! To be honest, I don't care for lots and lots of jewelry or lots of make up! Natural is better for me.
Would like to play a little tennis once in a while, or possibly go skiing but I haven't done either lately and it's ok if you don't do either. Jet skiing & apres skiing are fun, too, and easier! ha,ha! I like watching Sunday football if my team is playing, but I'm not a sports nut! I do a casual workourt routine 20 minutes every morning - it would be fun to do it together! I eat healthy foods, but pizza, ice cream and black licorice are 3 of my favorite, fun food groups, and I may have a Corona or merlot, late night!
I'm 170bs, 5'7" (I don't mind if your're a little taller) and - I"m in great shape, but I have a few extra pounds that would melt away with some clean home cooked meals and great love making - not at the same time, however! ha,ha!
I'm HONEST, RELIABLE, RESPONSIBLE, SELF- SUPPORTING, FULL OF INTEGRITY , TOTALLY FAITHFUL TO MY PARTNER, and FUN (I'm told)... and I'm over 65! I'm one of THE GOOD GUYS and believe in "doing unto others"...
When I find her, I would make her my first priority over friends, over work, and even over sports! :>)
What I'm looking for...
Firstly, I am open to all races....LOVE IS LOVE! Realistically, I'm looking for over 55 or ANY upward age is ok if you look youngish, dress youngish, act youngish, feel youngish, play youngish and have a youngish attitude. I need a face that I want to kiss - whatever that may be! Other physical aspects really don't matter much except that being in decent shape is important, because I am - although I'm not looking for a Barbie doll, either. Firm is good, so hopefully you workout some.
Also, I am not looking for a work-a-holic, serious career ladder climbing woman, executive type, and probably not a real estate agent.... definitely not a high maintenance (money wise) or high style woman... more of a jeans and sweats type,and just someone content with their work or retirerment, and who has the desire, as I do, to make our relationship the top priority.
"I've been searchin' for the daughter of the devil, himself, and an angel in white...a woman who's a little of both.... but she's nowhere in sight!" THE EAGLES, "One of these nights"
I hope that you're fun, like to laugh and sing out loud, and like the things that I have, and be ok with the things that I don't. You should be a little bit adventurous and not prudish because I'm very playful and irreverant! Of course the usual things like honesty & fidelity would be a given..
I'm Hoping to hear from that special woman - maybe you?!? PLEASE INCLUDE A RECENT PHOTO OR 2 OR 3 if you're going to respond. Thank you and best wishes to all who took time to contact me! Dave

Miscellaneous stuff;
For another view of me, punch in WIFE WANTED MARRY DAVE @ YouTube. A video interview by the Boston Herald.
If you're from out of Mass. and we really hit it off online and phone,etc...I"d consider flying you in to Boston for us to meet. "Please ~ come ~ to ~ Boston ~ for ~ the Springtime..."
And finally, YES, there REALLY is a $1,000 "reward" for the person who is responsible for me meeting the woman that I marry(and the person would also be the guest of honor at our wedding! :) So, if you are not her, but have a friend and you think that we'd be a perfect match, then bring her here to my website. Of course, if it happens to be you, then you get 1/2 of the $1,000 automatically by default! ha,ha! LOL!
