Date women from Canada / British Columbia, 35 year old

Date a soulmate from British Columbia, Canada. I am a compassionate, driven, adventurous girl who has a tender heart. I am optomistic, not much scares me (except spiders!) and really think anything is possible. I love to travel and will do so myself if I can't find anyone to go with me. The TransSiberian railway and Nepal are at the top of my list.
I am low maintenance and appreciate the simple things in life. I'm a self-sufficient girl from North Van who loves this city! I am very over the bar/club scene and would rather be entertaining friends at home.
I am honest and expect the same. I don't say I work out 3-4 times per week cause I don't. I actually DO work out 1-2 times per week. Yes, I am 5'10". I am a shift worker so work 50% of weekends, There are pros and cons to that :-) I love my job as a maternity nurse and no that does not make me bananas to have/want babies.
At this age I think we should not only know what we want out of a relationship but what we need. I want you to like dogs. I want you to like to cook. I need you to be encouraging and supportive. I need you to be a man with a good sense of humour, can make me laugh and keeps things in perspective. I want you to realize most of our problems are "first world problems". We are blessed to live where we do and have the lifestyle we live. Yes, sometimes we are on hold with Telus a little too long, but let's get real.
I'm looking for a gentleman who isn't into mind games and is financiall and emotionally stable. I don't need to be wined and dined, I need picnics, hiking, and a man willing to try new things. No whining, no excuses.
It's is my first time online dating. Can you tell? Go easy on me...

Meet a woman from British Columbia, Canada. I'm laid back but fun-loving, enjoying life in Vancouver. I have a great circle of friends, and plenty of things to keep me busy, but I'm always looking to meet new and interesting people. I have a lot of goals, and want a lot out of life, but I always take time to look after myself and enjoy the ride.
I currently work with severely disabled kids, in particular autistic kids. It's challenging and interesting, and I learn something about them or myself every day. I am planning to apply for a Masters in counselling psychology next year, so I am working on the prerequisites right now. I'm busy, but it feels great to be working towards my goals.
I'm looking for someone who's smart, funny, and laid back. Someone who makes me laugh and can engage in interesting conversation on a wide-range of topics. Someone who's ambitious but also knows how to enjoy life. I'd like someone who's active, but I'm don't necessarily need an athlete. I'd like to be someone who's as tall as me, but it's not a deal breaker. I know it's a cliche, but personality is way more important than physique to me.

Date someone special from British Columbia, Canada. First I'm a very private person and not much of a socialite. I'm a self professed loner as you will. I feel way more comfortable hanging out in the woods or by a river or going for long walks than I do hanging out at a mall or at a bar etc. I'm a homebody and spend much of my time baking, sewing, gardening, home projects, watching movies or reading. On sunny days though it's a must to get outside. I love going for walks, road trips, exploring new places, hanging at the beach or at a park, checking out new restaurants.
I love food but not much of a cook, I'm really good at the meals I know but not much of an imagination for new ones. Really love men who can cook, so much so I'm willing to do all the dishes in exchange for fabulous meals. *wink* That being said I'm vegan, but don't mind if others aren't and not one who preaches either. It is very important that you are okay and respectful of my being vegan, just like I'll be respectful of your choices.
I have one cat who turned 14 this year, I've had her since she was just 8 weeks old and she makes me smile and grateful every day. You MUST like cats. I will not give her away for you, don't even ask!
I like being silly and making stupid jokes, most of the time ones only I seem to get. I'm also a clutz and always covered in bruises but they just add to my charm, I hope.
I like to find someone who is quiet too and just enjoys taking one day at a time and being grateful for the simple things in life. Someone who loves to spend an evening snuggled under some blankets and watching a movie or going for a tea/coffee. Be nice if you enjoy live music and going to concerts and like to explore and try new things.
I believe in working on things that are broken rather than throwing them away. The exception... being faithful is number one for me, it will be a deal breaker if you are not. I believe in being exclusive, not exclusive ish.
I'm faithful and loyal to my friends and majority of my friends I have known for 20 years or more, I believe when someone enters your life who is completely awesome, you work hard to never let them go. Everyone makes mistakes, it's how we learn and grow.
I'm very much a romantic and prefer homemade gifts over store bought. I also have tattoos and piercings so my special someone will see those as beauty.
I take a while to warm up to people and am really quiet to begin with but once I'm comfortable I open up and reveal the real me. I'm an excellent listener and love hearing others stories and adventures. So if you love to talk, we may get along great.
Most importantly I like someone who is a best friend and a lover too and who I can't wait to wake up beside every day.

Meet a soulmate from Canada. I like to keep busy with yoga, hiking, walking or running along the seawall, camping, hanging out with friends for coffee or dinner, and movies – either the latest movie in the theatre or curling up on the couch. In the summer I love spending time outdoors. Cooking and baking are fun and I'm always looking for a test subject for new recipes. I'm very fortunate to have a great family and amazing friends and I love spending time with them. I have a good job that I love - most days – but a balance between work and play is important to me.
I love travelling and really want to do more. I travelled a fair bit growing up and then I did the whole backpacking thing around Europe after my undergrad. It was a fun adventure full of amazing experiences that included getting my passport taken away while getting yelled at in Czech and discovering my talent for finding the sketchy parts of big European cities. My list of places to visit is getting longer and longer...many of my friends have been to Costa Rica lately and from the pictures I've seen it's definitely near the top of my list.
I'm a loyal Canucks fan and love watching games with friends. I'm still hoping to see the cup here one day :)
IРІР‚в„ўm looking for someone who is active and who has a good balance between work and fun. Quirks and a silly sense of humour are greatly appreciated as is the ability to laugh at yourself and laugh with me (and at me) when the occasion calls for it.

Date a woman from Canada. My username should tell you a little about me already. I love to travel and I follow my heart wherever it takes me. I have family and friends all over the world and I seem to go to a disproportionately high amount of destination weddings. In the past 6 months I have travelled to Hong Kong twice, Melbourne, Barcelona, Paris and NYC. I'm an urban girl with island roots so as much as I like to hang out in the biggest and best cities in the world, I'm also pretty happy kicking it at my friend's gulf island cabin or at home on Vancouver Island. I think if you're a family man who loves adventure and travel, we'll be off to a pretty good start...or at least manage to get through a drink ;-)

Meet someone special from Canada. Happy girl looking to be even happier! Really looking for that special someone....we meet a lot of people, but there's nothing better than having that fun, flirty chemistry with someone you click with. I'm a hard working girl, love my job...usually :) but also enjoy having a fun life outside work. I'm looking to meet someone just as ambitious in whatever it is that he does. You could say I'm independent, but don't get me wrong, I'm a girl at heart, who appreciates a guy who opens the door for me and will call me to initiate plans. I'm looking for a guy that makes me laugh and that we are at ease with one another. I don't have a certain 'look' or profile of that special guy, attraction has to be there of course, as does his confidence and just having fun together! Life is short - let's enjoy it!
I really cherish spending time with friends and family and enjoy doing special things for the ones I love. I've travelled but haven't seen Europe, would love to go on an Okanagan wine tour, see Tofino....would be so happy to do some of these things with a special guy in my life! Let me know if it's you!

. Ok a little about myself....here goes....
I keep pretty active - love to run, golf, hike... who wouldnt when you live in a place like this!
I love adventure - always up for something and would consider myself to be spontaneous.
I find cooking at home as enjoyable as going out especially, when trying out new restaurants.
I enjoy any and all travelling especially road trips!!
Family and friends are very important to me and I would say they would describe me as caring, honest, good listener, positive, funny and genuine.
As for what I am looking for in someone...a great sense of humour and "looks at the glass half full" is a good start. Spontaneity and adventurous are great qualities but also having the ability relax and enjoy the quiet times is important too.
Happy to share more about me so if you want to know more please ask.
Best of luck on your search!

. I am inquisitive, analytical and opinionated. I am passionate about my job, and admire people who are committed to professional growth, regardless of age or titles. I have challenged myself with radical changes in several successful careers, and I am content with the choices IРІР‚в„ўve made. I am attracted to determined people who donРІР‚в„ўt live a dream, but bring a dream to life. If this type of commitment makes you feel intimidated or competitive, instead of inspirational, then I am scarcely your match. I am looking for a man who has confidence to be himself, is eager to learn new things and dedicated. I sympathize with guys who are able to accept their own flaws and to downplay their own weaknesses and mishaps with a healthy dose of self-irony. I donРІР‚в„ўt want to be a superheroРІР‚в„ўs girlfriend. I would like to get to know somebody authentic and sincere. I believe that long-lasting successful partnerships are built on trust, companionship and mutual inspiration.

. I grew up in a small town on Vancouver Island and left in my 20's to the big city of Victoria (my favorite place). I've also lived in Edmtonton and most of the Lower Mainland. I had a great childhood and have a loving family who I see often. Despite a hatred for BC Ferries, I visit 'home' every two months to spend time with the parents and grand parents. Family is very important to me!
I've always wanted to be a Mom and that became a reality in 2009. My Son is now 3.5 and an amazing kid (yeah, I know...all parents say that!) but is a very well adjusted awesome little man. His Dad and I raise him as co-parents (50/50) which means I have him a week at a time which allows me to also have a life!
I've lived on the mainland for just over 10 years now and am currently in North Burnaby. I have a job that I am very happy in however it does not stop me from buying those Lotto Max tickets every so often. I'd love to travel more
I prefer to live a more natural life (think low maintenance and no drama). I appreciate good friendships, chocolate, nature, sushi, the earth, reading, dining out, traveling, Wreck beach, the earth, blogging and of course spending time with my guy. I just need to find the guy!
Things I'm not interested in smoking or drugs (of any kind), overly girlie stuff (shopping, make up, etc), partying hard, games, and being around negative, goalless people
In my previous life (before the little dude) I enjoyed downhill mountain biking, floor hockey, went sky diving, traveling (US, UK, Jamaica, DR, Mexico). I'd like to get back into things like that now that life has settled down a bit.
The kind of guy I'm looking for is outspoken, fair, non judgmental and caring. Has life figured out by this age and eventually wants the whole house, marriage, kids package in whatever form and order comes first. I have lived a far from traditional life and I plan to keep it that way! I fly by the seat of my pants and the guy who is with me, needs to too! It's much more fun this way. Spontaneity is the spice to life.
Interested? Drop me a line...

. hi looking for a nice person who likes to try new things. Let's explore new places nd horizons. It is always fun to create new adventures. Today I went for a nice walk aong the beach with my most favorite person in the world. ....Mom'S!!

. I am going to say right off the bat that I am not good at talking about myself on the computer.
Somethings about me...I have good values and a great sense of humour. I am the mother of a wonderful ten year old girl. I love animals...I have two beautiful white cats and two small dogs. I am a Licensed Practical Nurse and truly enjoy my career.
More to come...:)

. Just thought I'd try this out..I've been very busy with my career but my priorities have changed now. I am very down-to-earth individual, enjoy a variety of activities, and looking for someone that knows what he wants. Will update more later.

. Like most people, I have been told to "get over myself" and just give this a shot.....so here I am.
My friends would say that I am an honest, loyal, authentic, capable, and straight forward (no games) kind of girl. I value family and good friendships and I usually don't waste too much time on flakey people. I try to surround myself with people who have positive and happy dispositions and I find intelligence (not necessarily book smart) and a sharp sense of humour appealing. I like confidence, but not aggression, and patience is key. I love to learn and explore new places or things and although planning and organizing comes natural to me, I can easily be spontaneous and just go with the flow. I haven't always lived in the City and I have travelled abroad so I would consider myself to be well rounded. I think I am a pretty good combination of feisty, witty, and sarcastic so we will have lots of fun! If you love and respect your mom and sisters and you know how to throw a meal together, I will be appreciative. I believe in trust, so insecurity is a turn off. I think it's important to support each other's passions and to join in when it is appropriate. I am thoughtful and always looking for ways to put a smile on your face.
A few confessions: I sing while driving in the car (loudly and off tune I'm thinking), I watch some reality tv, I don't always follow the rules, I'm usually a couple of minutes late (working on that), I don't love mornings, chocolate, spicy food, or coffee, I kill spiders, your friends and family might like me better ;), and that's just off the top of my head...ha ha.
I am the outdoorsy type and most days you'll find me dressed pretty casually but don't let that fool you because I have a closet full of heels!! I do some form of fitness at least a few times a week and I've been involved in sports for most of my life so if you are looking to enjoy activities with a partner, I promise not to be a total feeb! As far as your average girl goes, I think I'm pretty handy and I'm not really afraid to get my hands dirty.
Most importantly, I am a happy mother of one and feel lucky everyday to have my healthy beautiful son in my life.
If you think we have some things in common and that we could have some fun getting to know each other then send me a message or even a wink. I promise to actually read your entire profile!! :)

. I'm easy going and am looking for someone the same. I love reading, music, and socializing with family and friends. I'm looking for an intelligent
man who is emotionally intelligent and has respect and compassion for people, animals, and the world. I would like to be with someone I can look up to, who has a great sense of humour, and ambition and creativity.

. Well after much debate with friends I decided to try this... although I am very friendly and chatty, I am quite shy initially and almost never initiate the first move with a guy... so I am trying :)
I'm a 30 something woman who is looking for someone who enjoys life! I'm an independent woman with a good group of friends but would like that special someone to enjoy adventures with. I'm looking for a man who can challenge me and who wants to be my equal. I don't want to change him or have someone think they can change me, but someone who can compliment me and vice versa. I'm not looking for my soul mate as I'm still not sure I believe that but for that person who excites me and gets the importance of trust and openness.
I am an active person who is currently doing bootcamp twice a week and crossfit another two days with my weekends always free. I love to laugh and am a very easy going girl. I love to be outside and anywhere near the ocean any time of year! And when I say adventures… I mean someone who is willing to go zip lining with me, learn to surf, go stand up paddle boarding, travelling to different parts of the world, sampling different cuisines and wine etc… Don’t get me wrong I also enjoy down time and can chill out and watch a movie or cook a great meal.....
