Date women from Canada / British Columbia / Vancouver, 42 year old

Date someone special from Vancouver, Canada. I am a great catch for the right guy! What make me a great catch? Well, I am mature, responsible, financially stable and an outgoing person who enjoys life. I have a positive outlook and always open to meeting new people and opportunities. I am grounded with high values and standards, comfortable in my skin and insightful of others needs. I enjoy visiting new places and outdoor activities. Hiking, running, long walks and time spend at the gym keep me in reasonably good shape as does living a healthy lifestyle. I have a good sense of style although I refuse to wear any shoes that cause pain...unless they are really cute *smile*
Spending time with friends and family is a favourite pastime. My interests vary from year to year and I tend to take on new challenges to keep things interesting (i. e. snowboarding, marathon training, scuba diving, salsa classes, etc.
I appreciate a man who holds himself to high standards as well, lives a healthy lifestyle, comfortable in his skin and has a sense of humour.
Together we enjoy thought provoking conversations, physical/mental chemistry and similar goals. We will bring out the best in each other and always support each other in our goals and passions. We will be best friends and lovers. We will share an active lifestyle which would include romantic weekend get aways and evening strolls along the seawall.
I give my best and never forget to give thanks and appreciation. I believe that in relationships we should build each other up and bring out the best in each other, and I am looking for some who shares that outlook.
If any of this interests you then lets connect.

Meet a woman from Vancouver, Canada. I am a funny, smart woman who can be incredibly giving and caring with the right person. I love animals, travel, socializing, being active and any given night can see me playing volleyball at urban rec, doing the grind or sipping cocktails on a patio on Commercial Drive. I would like to meet someone that adds to my life. Intelligence and humour are incredibly attractive to me, as is calm confidence.

Date a soulmate from Vancouver, Canada. In a small pararaph: giving the online dating scene a shot. Not really interested in meeting someone at the bar or club and while I am quite social, I am kind of shy and seem to have a hard time meeting anyone.
I am a very active person looking for someone to have fun with, someone that is interested in a lot of the things I am interested in. My work takes up a fair bit of my time, but while not working I spend most of my time doing something active. I love sports - watching and engaging in - and like to be outdoors. Travelling is a big part of my life but while I am home I like cooking, eating and drinking events, also like art, movies, reading, among other things. I have lived overseas for the past 4 years and am back home to Vancouver so re-exploring it all over again and looking to meet some new people.
What type of person do I hope to attract? Well, the list is pretty big... but.... sincerity and young at heart is important.... and chemistry is essential

Meet someone special from Canada. Hello Gentlemen! I have waited a while to try Match.com and feel the time is right to be one of their success stories! My girlfriend found the love of her life on this site so I am hopeful and inspired and need your co-operation. : )
A little about me...I am fun, positive, energetic, entrepreneurial, health conscious, spiritual, generous, creative, warm, friendly and genuine. I was out a couple of weeks ago and an old friend that I had not seen in a while said he knew it was me because he heard my laugh from 3 tables away. I do believe that laughter is the best medicine! I just started my own corporate communications firm this year which has been a challenging but rewarding process. Despite moments of fear and panic the sense of liberation and possibility is empowering and makes everything worthwhile. I am learning that security is mostly an illusion anyway. I am fairly active - I workout with a trainer, run, practice yoga. No desire to do anything like the Tough Mudder but I was happy to cheer on my friends and take pictures. Maybe next year, but maybe not.
In my spare time I love to read (South American writers like Allende and Coelho, business, self-improvement), write (I do a lot of technical writing for work so anything creative or contemplative restores my soul), entertain (love having friends over - I get to drink wine without having to keep track - just kidding, or maybe not!), dine out (La Quercia, Oakwood Bistro, all the little funky places on Main and Gastown - I like to support local businesses) and travel (weekends up at Whistler, Seattle and the Okanagan, New York, Paris and hope to travel to Spain and Eastern Europe sometime soon).
I am a single mom to an amazing (yes I know all parents think their kids are great but she truly is!) and polite (I mention this because teenagers have a reputation and all my friends are always amazed at how nice she is) 13 year old daughter. She lives with me most of the time but sees her father regularly.
I am grateful for my wonderful family, supportive group of friends, health, career, and living in Vancouver.
A little about you...single, straight, has purpose, intelligent, educated, a good guy, takes care of his mind, body and soul, attractive, open, honest, likes children but is not looking to have any (more), has his life together, recycle, funny, happy and ready for a relationship. Of course these are just general qualities and it is hard to know who you will have chemistry with and find interesting until you meet in person.
I am often told that I look much younger than my 42 years. For those who have asked - all my pictures are recent except the one taken up at Whistler which was from the Christmas before last.
Send me a message if I've sparked your interest and you think we might be a match - don't be shy. Winks are so ambiguous but I know sometimes it is hard finding something to say. I think I will use them more myself! I am a little shy when it comes to approaching men because I seem to be clueless. The last guy I liked was married and the one before that was gay! I am working on this!
Good luck and have fun everyone!

Date a woman from Canada. Jungle Jane is a professional who is extremely active with a diverse set of interests. She's traveled far and wide from Himalayas/Kashmir to Costa Rica to South America to SE Asia and Italy. Yet loves Vancouver's backyard and all its offerings and most often, there is more than a couple of books on the go.
In her spare time, you'll find Jungle Jane on her road bike or running or swimming or anything that involves being active. She's also quite the domestic goddess in the kitchen and loves to cook and entertain. However, ad out for toilet cleaners. All jokes aside, looking for a genuine, loyal, kind and active mate with a healthy dose of wit and intellect. Must be an effective communicator and speak with abandon and passon....and talks and walks like a gentlemen.
And the rest is really magic, timing and chemistry....
ps. ..i will admit to one pet peeve...if you are recently separated, leaving a relationship, wanting to leave a relationship, mending a broken heart or not sure which of the above or all of the above, then it's probably safe to suggest that you are on the wrong website. Unfortunately or fortunately, this is non-negotiable.
As they say..."Good Will Hunting..."

Meet a soulmate from Canada. It seems that a lot of people who live in Vancouver enjoy outdoor sports such as volleyball, rollerblading, windsurfing and rock-climbing. I do none of the above. I occasionally work out, take the stairs as much as possible, cycle and do a lot of walking. I have dreams where I'm rollerblading and I'm really great at, but it's not something I really want to do. Or maybe I do? But donРІР‚в„ўt despair. I am one of those lucky naturally thin people who eats like a horse but doesnРІР‚в„ўt look like one.
Nothing against fit, active people who do can do the Grind in forty minutes. I admire you and aspire to be like you some day. Some day. For now, I will try to go to the gym at least twice a week and keep promising myself I will cycle to work. I'd also like to try some yoga classes. When I go for a hike or a walk, I don't like to rush to the top of the hill. I like to enjoy the sights and sounds along the way.
So what do I do? I am an Administrative Assistant and Technical Writer. I do some creative writing on the side and plan on doing more of it when I take some courses in the fall. I have a diploma in Professional Writing, and am working towards a degree. I aspire to be like Miriam Toews and Carol Shields. Another some day. I am a big daydreamer with a lot of aspirations.
I am looking for someone kind of like me in the fitness department. Somewhat active but not obsessed. Someone with health and wellness goals and at the same time knows how to relax and have fun. You have a good sense of humour, a creative streak, are tall-ish, enjoy your profession, and like to learn and laugh.
I am looking for a genuine, monagamous relationship.
For a first date, IРІР‚в„ўd like to go out for dinner or a drink, just hang out and have fun. Sporting events or a show would be cool, as long as there is no UFC!
And my own disclaimer here: as much as I like the cubs out there, no one under 35 please.

Date someone special from British Columbia, Canada. I am grateful everyday to be living a full life as a professional single mother in Vancouver, and be able to enjoy the ocean and mountains which remind me of my Latin-american roots.
Everyday I aspire to be authentic, loving, and a good communicator.
In my career, I promote health and wellbeing for all, through policy, research and project development.
I am passionate about life, especially about self-development, travel and dancing!
My kids and friends mean the world to me as they teach me about life, who I am, and who I aspire to be.
I would love to meet someone who lives their life with integrity, loves music, conversation, and wants to grow and have fun with me on this journey called life :)
I recently heard on the radio that according to global dating experts, Vancouver is officially the hardest city to date in North America.
Given that, I am open to exploring possibilities beyond geographic boundaries :)

Meet a woman from British Columbia, Canada. Healthy, kind, established, monogamous, intelligent, worldly, respectful, proud, animal lover, generous, outgoing, appreciative, honest, spontaneous, understands the arts, funny, well mannered, likes taking trips, shares opinions openly.
These are some terms that best describe me. I'm hoping to find a man with similar qualities.
I am old fashioned when it comes to romance. I like a man to open doors and bring me flowers just as much as I like to prepare beautiful dinners for him.
I also like a man who is in charge. I like the type of man who can make solid, confident decisions.
I don't have any children of my own, but I really love being around them. It would be a plus if you had children, but it's not a deal breaker.
I work on a contract basis, so I love taking advantage of my time off to explore the world. I would like to meet someone that is free to do the same.

Date a soulmate from British Columbia, Canada. I am an active, kind heart and genuine person. I have lived in Asia, Europe and North America. This international life experiences made my life colorful. I can speak four languages. Kindness, loyalty and tradition can best describe the person I like. I am looking for someone who can dwell in my mind and my heart, no matter whether we are together or apart. I want to be able to feel your presence, whether we are 10 inches or 10,000 miles apart.

. This is you...You love to smile and do it often...laughter comes easily and yet you know there is a time for quiet contemplation. You are adventure bound...and that can happen in your business, local community, in relationship, sport or on a trip abroad. You are clear that relationships are something generated and it brings you pleasure to share and grow within the context of one. You surprise yourself and others by out of the box comments or thoughts and are interested in sharing those thoughts as an exploration.
This is me...I've travelled, explored self/community and continue to do both. My passions include holistic nutrition, yoga, sports, boating, my 2 dogs, water in, on or around me, music and movement. PS I love motorcycles..looking to acquire licence for next season. Yes, I have youthful energy,...lots of it!
In a nutshell, I don't need to be dazzled, just honored. Simple pleasures mon ami. Lastly, I love children, if you have them awesome...lucky you! That whole divorce thing got in the way for me, that and the "one day" conversation. One day never seems to be today...go figure?
Carpe Diem.

. I have always been a humble and somewhat modest person so I am finding this difficult... however, If you meet me, talk to me, chat, whatever, you'll get a sense of who I am fairly quickly. What you see is what you get, I am real and down to earth.
I am... honest, lots of fun, love to laugh, pretty interesting and easy going. I am loyal to those closest to me and have strong values and beliefs. I am a strong, independent and confident woman. I am athletic and have played many sports all my life including volleyball professionally . I have a post secondary education and am very successful in my career. My career is challenging and most importantly I make a difference in what I do. I am successful, secure and self motivated (not self-employed). I ride horses (some men find that sexy I'm told...unfortunately I wear a helmet, not a cowboy hat... although I've been known to break the rules:), I love to drive fast, hike with my dog, spend time with family and friends, and a hot bubble bath with a glass of wine. Not in that order of course.
I like to have something to look forward to.... A night out to dinner, going for a hike, a walk on the beach, a picnic, or just a quiet night at home with a good movie...
Who I'm looking for: someone I can get to know and spend some time with, have fun, good chemistry, and we will see what happens from there...
According to my girlfriend , my photo's aren't nearly sexy enough and don't do me justice... I'm working on that :)

. I'm a person who loves to take advantage of Vancouver summers (and winters!). I've been checking out street festivals, food and events with friends. I'm planning a few weekends away.
I'm active in the community and enjoy my job (on most days). It's important for me to have something in my life I'm passionate about.
You are relaxed, stable, enjoy your work. Interest in world events and politics is good.

. Hi there. Thanks for stopping to read my profile.
It's a little harder than I expected to write about myself - but here goes...
I consider myself straightforward, open minded, refined, compassionate, outgoing with a good sense of humor.
I have a wonderful group of friends that I enjoy spending time with, and I'm very close to my family – all of whom live in Vancouver.
Getting dressed up for night on the town is just as appealing to me as staying home, making dinner and getting comfortable on the couch to watch a movie. Having said that, IРІР‚в„ўm far more comfortable in a cocktail and stilettoes than camping!
I’m on the “artsy” side – I really enjoy the theatre, ballet, viewing new exhibits at the Art Gallery or listening to a live band play. I’m an avid reader – and I still prefer pages in a book to a digital reader.
I’m always planning my next vacation. I love exploring new places and learning about new cultures. The phrase “road trip” will always get my attention.
My job can be a little demanding, so I consciously make the effort to maintain a work-life balance (well, at least I try..)
I believe in living life – not just watching it from the sidelines.
What am I looking for? For lack of a better description, a gentleman: someone whoРІР‚в„ўs confident, intelligent, considerate, honest, affectionate, a good communicator, witty and makes me laugh!

. Friends and family say my best quality besides my smile, confidence and style and that I have an energy that makes people naturally drawn to me.
I am comfortable wearing high heels, running shoes, flip-flops or hiking boots, yes, I am a shoe-aholic. My favorite things are: walking the seawall, antiques, exploring, riding around on my scooter and sipping wine with friends. I'm in sales and marketing - I work from home and I also have a part-time job that really enjoy.
update - I have a sidekick in my life now. She is 6lbs of energy, a chihauhua/terrier and she loves walks, car rides and of course cuddling. I am giving sea kayaking a try this summer so I need a partner.
My ideal match is a gentleman/playmate who shares my outlook on life - live life with passion and laughter and be respectful of others including the earth. And must love dogs.
I like this .... "Learn from the past, live with the present and shape the future". I look forward to the next chapter in my life, maybe it will be with you.

. Hmm.. let's see here.. I have a great sense of humor...a dirty mind! haha...try to look on the bright side of stuff, and don;t let too much sh** in life get me down.Close w my family, and I love animals.
