Date men and women from Canada / British Columbia / Metchosin, 51 year old

Date people from Metchosin, Canada. Well,so much to say! But I will try to limit it! Firstly, I am a real man, not a wimp, a weirdo, a player or a flake. I’m 6’4” and was 219 lbs when I was 19 years old and at 50 I’m back at 219! I joke with my kids and say I’m 220 lbs of twisted steel and sex appeal! Was going to turn 50 last year but then decided not to, lol. Currently I am a single dad raising 4 almost perfect kids 15, 17, 19 & 21. (I don’t need help and the kids don’t need a second mom in case you just fainted!) I have a few more years of serious parenting to do before I can wind down my businesses here and retire (or semi-retire) to a winter home in the USA. Probably Palm Springs or maybe closer to the water, or perhaps on a boat in Ventura Keys where I used to live. Or maybe Mexico? Do you speak Spanish? So I guess I will be a "snowbird". . I could never give up summer yachting in B.C. (Yachting and sea food lover is a must!) I am educated and well-travelled. Tall, dark and my cat says I am very handsome. I love to cook lots work out some. I’m a realist and maybe can be a bit hard, but sometimes still have to wipe away a tear even in a Disney movie, but I would never admit to it. (Oops! I think I just did!) I'm smart, eminently confident, gregarious, expressive, funny and most of all, incredibly modest, lol!
I’ve had money and houses, cars, boats, motorbikes and all the other things that you realize mean less than nothing, once you're feeling so very alone. I had the perfect life and fairy tale marriage to the most wonderful and beautiful woman in the world, whom I adored. I held on to her as long as I could, but our marriage finally lost out to her depression and mental illness. For some time I felt that somehow I had failed, both her and my children, but I know that there was nothing more I could have done and I have peace in my heart now. My 26 year marriage is over, but my life goes on. I have not lost my dream of a wonderful future, filled with cooking, wine and sunsets.
I'm in no rush just to be with someone. Although I’m a real man and know how to romance, tease and flirt, I’m not looking for a “booty” call, I have more respect for myself than that. If you have been excessively promiscuous in the past, present, or are planning to be in the future, please don’t contact me. I’m looking for the lady, not the tramp. I was here just looking around a bit to see if my dream could really become a reality, but I thought it’s only fair that since I can see and read about you, I owed you the same courtesy. I do eventually hope to meet a woman of great beauty and character, with confidence, faith, intelligence and some means. Of course if I think you’re smokin' hot that won't hurt either, lol! I might find someone I would never expect. Someone who knows more than I do about a variety of things. Or who thinks, feels and enjoys things I have never experienced or considered. I won’t compromise core values but I don’t want to rashly eliminate anyone and perhaps in doing so miss that very special person. It may be someone very different from me in many ways, but isn’t that how a partnership works best? I’m going to “toss up my heart, and see where it lands”. I wasn’t sure about what heading to put myself under. I don’t know what I’m really ready for just yet but I'm starting very slowly, maybe I should say "nothing serious" for now? However, I am eventually looking to meet a woman to fall deeply in love with, to know intimately, to trust completely and to share every moment of the rest of my life with, all that has to start with a meeting, and a friendship first, if you’re in a big hurry...sorry.

Date single man from Metchosin, Canada. Hi I work nights I find it a challenge to meet people while working these hours. I'm honest to a fault and I appreciate a caring understanding lady.
I enjoy traveling. It's immersing into another culture, language that I enjoy greatly.
Not really sure what more I could say about myself. You know I am a guy who has feelings like others. I feel joy, pain, excitement, sorrow, empathy.
Even though my location says Metchosin I live in Victoria.

Meet someone special from Metchosin, Canada. I am a single professional with 2 adult children that live away from home. I like to travel, particularly to sunny warm spots and like to relax when I get there. Would like to meet someone that isn't on edge all the time and wants to enjoy life.

Date people from British Columbia, Canada. I am here looking for my soul mate, my best friend, my lover, my shoulder, my everything. I am 51 years young and have been told I look more like I am 45 to 47. I guess I come from good genes. I am looking for someone close to my age but not opposed to someone who is younger or older it is the click that counts.
My music interest is a wide variety from the top 20, country, metal, rock etc, I like groups from the Stones/ACDC/Aerosmith/Beatles/Nazareth/Nickelback/
PINK/Hedley and a whole range of others,you name it I'lllike it ............you can often see me driving down the street with the tunes on singing like no one can hear me (Thank Gawd) ?
I love to travel but have not done enough, that is something on my bucket list. Camping is awesome which I also love to do, so should you like camping whether it is a tent, trailer, cabin, 5 star hotel..........then letРІР‚в„ўs go.
I enjoy cooking (cooking with two is the most fun/with a bottle or two of wine along with it), camping, fishing, mountain biking and almost anything outdoors. An evening at home with a good movie or two, some popcorn and vino is just as nice as an evening out, so long as you are with that special person it shouldnРІР‚в„ўt matter.
I am a girlie girl but I can most definatly get my hands dirty too. I have a wide variety of crafts that I love to do and very much enjoy working outside in the garden. I watch a variety of Television shows, comedy, reality, crime etc, and enjoy a good movie with a special someone. I am not a couch potatoe but like to keep my late nights to the weekend due to my work.
I have had some health issues over the past few years and due to this put on some unwanted weight, that being said if you can look past that and help me work towards my goals, then your the man for me. I do believe we are all superfical to some degree but I think that special someone for me will look beyond and see what a great catch I am and what I have to offer.
About the one I am looking for............I donРІР‚в„ўt care if you wear a suit and tie to work, or jeans and steel toed boots, I donРІР‚в„ўt care what kind of car you drive, however, if you have a steel pony that is a good thing. I donРІР‚в„ўt care what you do for a living or how much money you make...........I just want my last forever. If you think you might be that guy then drop me an line, give me a wink, lets chat.

Meet a woman from British Columbia, Canada. Well, at this time I will just mention that I am new to the 'dating ' world so for now will just be getting my feet wet, so to speak. Let's have a coffee and chat, and take it from there. At present I'm not necessarily looking for a relationship as much as friendship. Briefly, for starters, I am interested in starting to travel. Not the typical resort type travel but rather more of a working or volunteer holiday. I like the idea of living with locals and giving back to the community while learning about culture and language. Of course that is not exclusively the only travel I'd be interested in. I love road trips and it would be great to explore my own backyard. It would also be wonderful to have a travel companion but not mandatory either!
I like the idea of being my own boss, whether I continue to work for a company, 'contract' myself out or perhaps start a business where I could work from home or where there's an internet connection.. I like the freedom to be spontaneous but I can still make plans as well.
I'm a very easy going person, love to laugh, can be serious, but also want to be carefree and enjoy the 'little' things in life.

Date men and women from British Columbia, Canada. I have a tender and giving soul and a wicked sense of humor. I am a strong individual who does not need someone to complete my life. I would like to meet someone who wants to walk beside me in partnership rather than in front or behind me. A man who knows himself and what he wants and someone who is open, honest and has great communication. He must love laughing and being in the outdoors as I like to go on long walks and car rides.
I am not looking for a long distance relationship so if you live on the other side of the country, I'll be sending you a polite "No thanks".

Meet a soulmate from British Columbia, Canada. i love to laugh and have fun. i am looking for someone that makes me laugh and who doesn't take life too seriously. i love to exercise, listen to music, read, see movies, theatre, opera, travel, entertain etc. and would like to meet someone with similar interests. i don't live in Metchosin as it states above.

Date someone special from Canada. I suppose the best description for me is that I'm fully engaged! I've never shaken the "Peter Pan" awe and interest for all that's out there!
My background is in forestry and I am totally passionate about the environment, sustainability and our responsibility to the planet. I have been in business for many years and am working on lauching a few more in the near future. I am one of those people that is constantly having ideas about business or changing things or doing things differently. I am in a constant state of "Why" and "Why not" I guess - haha.
Ultimately I have a vision of living part time in Big Sur, spending time in India developing new business opportunities and then splitting the time once again with travel. There's so much to see and explore and I'd love to simply go to different places and live there for a period of time and become a "local".
I am painfully optimistic, hate worrying as I really feel that I am responsible for my own outcomes and can change the bad to good.
I'm pretty silly, immature and non-argumentative. There's the full description!
Also; I'm 53 now ( time flies) and am well enough preserved that nobody knows if I don't tell them!
I would hope to find someone that is equally electric, is full-on moving forward ,and loving the possibilities and the potential of each day! It sounds wierd but you can read so much about someone through their eyes and people with bright, lively eyes are the spunkiest, most fun and entertaining people!

Date a woman from Canada. A little about me... I love the beach and the mountains equally but I am happiest when the sun is shining. My passion is yoga which not only challenges me physically but keeps me grounded and able to balance my busy life. Most of all though, it just makes me happy!
I also enjoy running and hiking. I have in the past done a couple of marathons and half-marathons but for now it's more about keeping fit and healthy. I would like to do some more hiking and explore this beautiful Island that I live on.
I love to travel and experience diiferent cultures and geography but I am always happy to come home. You could say that I am a little bit of a homebody in that I enjoy hanging out with friends, listening to music or watching a good movie; especially if there is good food and wine involved.
As far as who I would like to meet... Someone who has a healthy, active lifestyle with a good work/life balance. He is kind, loves to laugh and doesn't take himself too seriously. He can be spontaneous and is able to kick back and enjoy spending time with friends and family.
