Date women from Canada / British Columbia / Chilliwack, 49 year old

Date a soulmate from British Columbia, Canada. I am a kind, caring, compassionate person. I make an effort to see the good in all people and situations. I find reasons to be thankful every day. I believe that things happen for a reason, and I prefer to see the glass 'half full' rather than 'half empty'. I am learning to listen to my heart and trust in myself. Yes, this is new to me. I have lead a very sheltered and naive life until only a few years ago. I feel a sense of 'freedom' finally to be myself. The reason for that I will explain to you if you choose to ask. I am eager to learn new things, and new experiences!
I am passionate about music, all music, but I've been fine-tuning my taste lately. Music is 'soul food' to me. I do not play an instrument, just love to listen to music. The violin is the instrument that reaches the deepest emotion, in my experience.
I love any of the arts, be it music, theatre, dance... as well as fine arts.
I am also passionate about people and culture. I enjoy learning about others. Every-one has a 'story'... and I'm fascinated with other's experiences. I hope some day to be able to travel to other countries and experience their people and cultures. But for now, I will enjoy reading books to 'take me away'. I would love to have a partner to travel with.
I am inspired by someone or something everyday. I make it my goal to find inspiration in each day. Sometimes I get inspiration from my work (working with the elderly) and sometimes it is from watching a stranger's act of kindness to another stranger. That makes me smile, and warms my heart for the day. And inturn, I hope that throughout my lifetime I am able to be an inspiration to others.
Most important to me in a relationship is meeting someone who is also kind, caring and has a compassionate spirit. I would like to meet someone with a positive attitude in life, who also loves to laugh.
I prefer someone who is motivated. (not a procrastinator!!) A man with a 'leadership' quality, (but NOT abusive) who knows how to treat a lady. I value a man that is respectful to his lady, caring, and protective. (ok... maybe I'm old fashioned in my views on relationships???....)
I would love to meet a partner in life, to share new experiences with, to laugh with (and cry with). Someone to be my strength when I'm weak, (hmmm.... that sounds like a song now that I think of it) ... and to accept my strength when he is down.
Life is great! I want some new adventures! I love to laugh. I enjoy socializing on a Saturday evening. Drinks and music and good friends.
Hope you have a wonderful day! And find what you are looking for in someone special too. :)

Meet a woman from British Columbia, Canada. I am a straightforward person. I am direct, honest and sincere. I am more interested in character than looks. I am more interested in how a man feels about himself than what he does. I am more interested in how I feel about myself than what people think of me. I am loyal, hard working, intelligent and grateful, with a good sense of humour.

Date someone special from British Columbia, Canada. I would say that I am an easy-going person. I enjoy life and my days can get pretty busy from time to time. I like to be outside, meeting new challanges and staying active. I am passionate about the things that I value and believe in treating others in the same manner that would be expected in return. I tend to be a bit shy at first, but once comfortable, I will share my world 100%. I love my home and garden and you can often find me in the backyard....I am somewhat of a home-body, although I do like to venture to the outdoor markets and homeshow venues. My family, which includes my animals are very special to me and a huge part of my life.
I have dual citizenship (Canadian and American) as I lived in South Florida for over 16 years. I do hope to return to the US, but remain in the Pacific NW area.
I am not a huge fan of "on-line" dating sites, however, at this age and time it can be difficult to meet other single people, so my friends have persuaded me to explore this route.....

I am hoping to meet a nice guy that will put me first hopefully, is interested in what I have to say or not say. A gentleman who still believes in opening doors for a lady and knows how to treat a girl with respect.
My social life has its ups and downs, it seems like there are weeks when there is something happening every night! And other weeks when it is quiet! I like a balance but sometimes that doesn't happen lol I do like evenings and weekends out, but I do enjoy nice quiet time at home, either curled up with a good book or watching a movie.

I truly enjoy the simple things in life and appreciate spending quality time with a loving partner. I am a hockey fan (of course the Canucks), and enjoy camping, hiking, BBQ's, fishing, hot rods, harleys, 4X4 and pretty much anything outdoors in all kinds of weather. I am not affraid to get my hands dirty....... and will try to fix things myself before I call in the "professionals" .... lol

In saying that, I would expect the same from my partner....

. I hold friends and family very close but have an independant nature as well. Humor gets me through the tough things in life and I am very practical in most situations. Not much for the superficial types. I am looking for a connection which apparently is hard to find thus, my posting but if it was easy, I assume there wouldn't be so many lon these sites! Looking to find someone who is witty with a good sense of humor and secure enough in himself to hold his own. I tend to be quite busy so hopefully you have an active lifestyle and enjoy outdoors. Let's try a simple coffee and see where it goes from there...no rush and no pressure and if we don't mesh I am truly okay with that. Sometimes, it is all in the chemistry!
