Date men from Canada / British Columbia / North Vancouver, 37 year old

Date someone special from North Vancouver, Canada. I love the little things. It really doesn't take much to make me happy. A good cup of coffee. Both listening to and playing music. Reading. I seem to go through fiction and non-fiction in stages. Right now it's fiction. I like going out to the movies or watching one at home but don't really watch much TV. A nice rainy day is a beautiful thing. sunny days are great too but I feel rainy ones are underrated. I believe in honesty. I still get excited and feel like a little kid when the plane I'm in takes off down the runway. I spend a significant amount of time by myself which I quite enjoy but a part of me would like to find someone to share things with. I am curious about almost everything. I have learned a lot about life through traveling and experiencing new cultures and places. I love good food and lead an active healthy lifestyle. Family and friends are very important to me. I would like to meet someone independant and happy with where they are at in life. Someone honest and thoughtful. The type of person who can enjoy a comfortable silence. I think that's about it for now. I am new to the whole internet dating scene and while I can see the potential merit of initially connecting with someone I believe dates, not computer screens, are for getting to know a person. If you're curious drop me a quick note.

Meet single man from North Vancouver, Canada. I'm a self educated man, I've been called quite intelligent by others, but that never went to my head, nor am I arrogant (well maybe just a little bit :) I'm also a man of subtle humility, you'll see this when I make fun of myself just to get a laugh, after all the road to enlightenment is paved in humility. I can definitely make people laugh, not every one though, two people's sense of humour may not mix well as with others, after all we're all looking for compatibility and chemistry are we not?
I am a natural storyteller to go along with my talent for telling jokes, however it's not my doing, I inherited that from my Dad. I also have a thirst for knowledge, I'm a good listener and I've learned to look at things from other people's point of view. I love to have fun inside or outdoors and am easily adaptable to new ideas and like trying new things; like I just tried Yoga and discovered it's allot harder than I thought, I think I'll go back.
One unique hobby I have is that I can perform many accents that I picked up along the way in my travels. I know way too many jokes for my own good, they help with punchlines, but I do practice some tactful discretion. Many of my passions and professional ambitions are found in the literary world, I'm a man with many hats, I've even been called an aficionado.
I make it a point of staying fit, I can be found doing long distance cycling, crashing the net on the ice and hitting softballs over the fence! If I'm not enjoying a sport I like to go to the gym, laps in the pool or roller blading. I do practice what I preach, I didn't just write that to impress anyone except do it for myself, but looking and feeling good are important to me. I also play a little golf and not so much tennis any more but I can still whack that little yellow ball around the court.
I've got a few skills that come in handy, I used to be a chef's apprentice once upon a time, so don't be surprised if I'm a little arrogant in my apron and white puffy chef's hat. I do have a few other skills, but I can't give away all my A Material right away ;)
I cherish my family, but they're scattered throughout the continent, so a short plane ride gets me to travel to more exotic places to see the, and family is always a good excuse to travel is it not? Also loved my time in Europe, travel makes us all wiser, at least that's what I learned from it. I once heard someone say that "Backpacking through Europe isn't a vacation, it's an adventure!"
Well I'm looking for my next great adventure, she may find me, or I will find her!

Date a soulmate from North Vancouver, Canada. First, thank you for taking the time to stop by and check out my profile. I will not try to sell myself with a crafty assemblage of words because, 4000 characters, really? My tv remote is more complex than that, though I will tell you this. Life is short so I try to be happy in all I do and be not afraid to take the risks that find my happy. Sounds trite but after learning it the hard way, turns out to be true. I had everything I wanted quite early in life, lost it all and found myself. Discovered second chances exist if you believe in yourself and your dreams so now there is no looking back and no settling for merely good enough.
So if this sounds like a page from your story, don't be shy, take a chance and say hi

Meet a man from North Vancouver, Canada. me=
I have been told that I am funny, highly energetic, and am very intense with what I pursue. I really enjoy the outdoors, fishing is my main way to relax and take a break. I also enjoy rock climbing, mountain biking and I even used to race cars.
I like going to concerts and movies but am just as happy to stay at home and relax with a good movie, or having friends over.
I am very much a 'glass is half full' kinda guy and try to turn life's events around to the positive. I'm always looking to have a good time wherever I am. If it isn't fun I usually do something else. I am also known as a bit of a joker.
I am totally a jeans, plaid shirt and a ball cap kinda guy. I've also got some real mean polyester shirts, and yes, I do think disco is cool.
i like doing the pub with friends instead of a club. i like funny t-shirts and tattoos too!
I'm an emotionally intelligent and willing to take risks kinda guy who, really does know how to treat a lady. I like being very affectionate with my partner.
the only pictures i have are ones that buddies take of us out on the river (my happy place) i will see if i can get others up here.
you=
I enjoy the company of some one who is intelligent and voices their opinion without being over bearing or arrogant, nobody likes that right?
I often find myself attracted to the 'the girl next door' type. I appreciate a woman who is comfortable with no make up, no fancy nails, and a 'what you see is what you get' type of attitude ...you know what I mean? But getting all dressed up and have a good night out is fun too!
There is also a part of me that is attracted to women with some great art on their bodies ...i have a fair amount of ink myself.
Communication is key, I feel without that everything could easily fall apart, so. Drama queens and crazy women need not apply. I want a girl who knows who she is and who she isn't, with a good sense of direction for her life and the way it should unfold.
If I've piqued your interest, go ahead and drop me a line. And don't be surprised if I do the same. Hope all of you have a great year and find that perfect fit for you :)

I'd like to meet a kind, down to earth woman that has some of the same interests, as well as exposing me to new things and ideas.

Meet single man from British Columbia, Canada. I'm a regular guy that enjoys laughing, hanging out with friends, travelling, riding my motorcycle, trying new things and just relaxing when it feels right. I'm not always after the next big adventure but I'm game when it sounds good, which is most of the time. I enjoy all the usual things like cooking dinner together, dining out, catching a few pints on a sunny patio, people watching at a cafe and spontaneous road trips. I like to have conversations about whatever comes to mind but also enjoy comfortable silence.
What am I looking for? Someone that is grounded, but with a young heart to keep it fun! I would just like to meet someone that has a level head, with similar interests that actually knows and enjoys who they are and is looking for someone to share that with.
If you'd like to know more, I'd love to hear from you...

Date a soulmate from British Columbia, Canada. I,m looking for love, sex and subsequently enogh energy for me and my partner to continue our lives and have a beautiful life. In my opinion life is love and without it our life will be meaningless. I would like to enjoy of my life and this will not be achived unless I work, exercise, love and live conciously.

Meet a man from British Columbia, Canada. I'm easy going, honest, I'm usually the to go guy when someone need a hand with something. I am very hands on and really don't mind getting my hands dirty. I'm usually that guy that makes everyone laugh, but could be serious when needed. I'm not looking for much, just someone real, that wants to start really living! Out side of work! I own my own business, that is starting to run itself. And now I'm working on my personal side of life. When I was building my company, I was really focused and busy, which wouldn't be fair to a partner. Business is going! So here I am! Where are you?!!!

Date someone special from Canada. I'm a relativley traditional guy, but with an education and progressive values. I'm looking for someone who is the same.
I am comfortable in situations where I have a lot of responsibility. I try to be concientious, innovative and accountable.
I'm looking for a partner with whom I can share my life. I'm looking for the real thing... chemistry and TL. ;)

Meet single man from Canada. How much is too much, I'm going to go out on a limb and get a bit deeper than the usual canned Vancouver guy profile such as 'I like hiking, hanging out, I'm super laid back, I'm into yoga, shirtless pics in the mirror with my iPhone, the seawall, texting, tattoos etc...)
Not that I don't like some of that stuff (not the texting, tattoos, shirtless pic part, I was making fun!) but there's more than that to me. I am a bit of a traditional guy and I enjoy girls being girls. I am not a macho guy, but I am a bit of mans man in many aspects and I like to do guy stuff. I am family oriented, I'm social and do like to go out, but I also enjoy my time at home some evenings spending quality time with the couch. I like my living space to be a home, aesthetically pleasing and well maintained, which has me fixing things and doing yard work on the weekends (yes ladies you read correctly, I can operate tools and I do get off the couch to work around the house). If you are like me, then you share the same views on family time, in that overloaded work weeks aren't compatible with relationships and a family. And raising children should be done by the parents,not by a nanny or day care.
Still with me after the career/nanny comment? Well done, here's what you get from me. I am a charming conversationalist and love to spend time talking about the many aspects of life and the world. I prefer to spend my weekends socializing with friends, sometimes at a pub, and sometimes spending the night in playing games. I enjoy exercise, I think being fit is good for the body and the mind. I love the outdoors but don't seem to get to enjoy it as much as maybe I would like (hiking is more fun with someone).
I have a big heart, there's lots of room for love. I do romance, I'm awesome with knowing your perfect birthday gift, Christmas, anniversaries, and surprises. Be prepared for surprises.... or don't actually..... because if you're prepared then you won't be surprised.
My ideal mate would enjoy some of the same things, she would be sweet, kind and beautiful and likes kids. I am looking for someone with feminine allure, classy and ladylike, but not too fragile, a princess or a daddies girl. I like a good down to earth girl that I can have a conversation with, someone that can be my friend as well as my lover and who enjoys old fashioned romance. A sense of humour is a great plus, cause sometimes I like to kid around. Someone who enjoys family and closeness, as well as being a great cook. By the way I can cook, but I don't always feel like it, so it's nice to have a second skilled preparer of the food.

Date a soulmate from Canada. I'm a great cook, and love my pet cat he's very smart and gives me something to care for, I'm just starting to try to grow flowers and herbs and other edible plants, as well as I enjoy recording tv shows that I like to watch on my days off, as well as trying new marinades and cooking techniques for chicken wings and other meats.
I would like to find some one that can enjoy tech and food shows as well as some one that loves to be in the kitchen cooking with me.
