Date women from Canada / British Columbia, 49 year old

Date a soulmate from British Columbia, Canada. I'm easy-going, enjoy a simple, quiter lifestyle, I enjoy camping, gardening and going for long walks with my dog. I work full time and enjoy my job. I like spending time outdoors on the weekends. I have been in the lower mainland for 12 years and love it here, although I grew up in Victoria. I don't really drink much so going to bars is usually a rare occasions. Going out for dinner and and spending time with friends is always fun. I guess I would describe myself as someone who likes to get out and do things.
I would love to meet someone who likes a more quieter and laid-back lifestyle too. Maybe going camping, and travelingl a little bit. I've always wanted to travel across Canada and would also love to see places like Egypt and the Mayan ruins. I used to ski and want to take that up again. I also can't imagine my life without my dog...I have a small 15 lb silky terrier, he's 2 and gets me out walking rain or shine.
I think people deserve to be treated with respect and dignity, I guess I am a little old fashined and believe that its polite to say please and thank you.
So, in short, you could say that I'm pretty laid back and looking for someone who is the same. Lives a quieter life. I'm not a big partier although I enjoy socializing with friends, going to summer barbeques and winter festivals. I enjoy good conversation, going to concerts and events around town. I like curling up on the couch and watching TV on a cold winter night and sitting round the campfire in summer and would love to share these experiences with that someone special. So if this sounds maybe a little bit like you, then maybe we'll be a pretty good match!

Meet a woman from British Columbia, Canada. Hello,
I love to laugh and admire a quick wit. I'm healthy, open minded, independent and self sufficient (although I will ask for help), and intelligent enough to get by.
I'm what I call and outgoing introvert. I prefer quietness and am content with my own company but also seek social activities with my friends that may include dancing, but most likely cycling, hiking, dining out, or just haning about chatting.
I appreciate the compnay of people who are relaxed, down-to-earth, caring of themselves and others.
I'm an early riser and enjoy a weekend breakfast of eggs florentine at a restaurant with a newspaper.
I enjoy camping for the fire and fresh air so will suffer through sleeping on the ground but I just got an air mattress and that is ahhh, so much better.
I want to see more of the west coast, Oregon, northern lights and all things in nature, and even more so, enjoy those moments with a friend for life that I endlessly kiss. I'm not a sun lover so will seek the shade in summer and love the winter.
I look forward to the possibilites.

Date someone special from British Columbia, Canada. If someone would have told me 10 years ago that I was going to put my picture on the internet and say "Hey does anyone want to date me?", I would have said no way!! Yet here we all are, crazy times!
I know this is the part I am supposed to tell you what I am looking for but I really do not have a list. I guess I'm just looking for someone who "gets me"....connections and chemistry either happen or they don't right? My only criteria is that you are happy and positive - all other stuff is negotiable and we can figure it out along the way.
A bit about me:
Im extremely positive and full of energy
I get excited to work out at 5:30am! Best time of the day
I love Knox Mountain
Im a fan of flaws
I love my job and my career
I'm completely fascinated with my daughter and how much fun she is!
I'm passionate about kindness
Addicted to newspapers
When I have free time I'm either running, hiking, biking or at the gym
Always searching for a good belly laugh
I'm an open book - will tell you whatever you want to know
I believe in being non-judgemental and very accepting of people
That's about it fellas! I spend most of my time either working or with my daughter but it's nice to have something to look forward to and someone to hang out with! I think everything is better shared :)

Meet a soulmate from Canada. First of all, I am family oriented. I have 2 great teenage kids. A son who is 19 and a daughter who is 17. As my kids are getting older its allowing me more time and freedom for other things....

My interests are diverse, running, walking, yoga, cooking., reading volunteering, entertaining and working on home improvement projects. In others I value honesty, integrity and compassion.
The right person for me is someone open-minded, active, trustworthy, with good moral values, enjoys exploring new places and wants to try new things.Someone to laugh with and enjoy life's adventures.

Date a woman from Canada. Life is good, but it can always get better....I enjoy time with my family and friends-lots of laughter (especially at myself) and a good bottle of wine never hurts.
Very young at heart and in spirit. I don't judge people-ever! Enjoy life, mishchieveous, fit. I try and stay positive,and surround myself with people that are like-minded. Independant, not a divaprincess, grounded, good job, financially secure. Love to dance when the mood hits, but enjoy nights in with a good movie and good company. Love everything from hip hop to old classic rock, and RB-past and present-like countryrock too.
I love to hug and kiss, cook a great meal, share a nice bottle of wine, and have great chats about everything and nothing..just want to meet that ONE "nice guy" (perhaps with a wee bit of bad boy thrown in for spice? LOL) that makes me feel safe and of course who turns me on!
Consider myself to have a cheeky and slightly sarcastic sense of humor, and I LOVE to laugh-keeps the stress away and is good for the soul! Want to meet someone that loves to laugh as much as I do. I like a man who can flirt with me, and can be silly sometimes. I take care of myself physically and hope to find the same in a mate.
I'm a good, loyal friend, very easy going, laid back, AND DEF not into drama or games...Have 2 great kids-1 lives with me part-time, but both are teens and independant, giving me the opportunity to have time for "me" as well. Not into serial dating, nor a ton of emails-prefer to meet in person (yes, the old fashioned way! haha)
I have a very amicable relationship with my ex, and no, he does not own any firearms.....LOL

*People I meet tell me I look young for my age..I am very young at heart, in spirit, how I dress, and I think a pretty good figure for someone over 45...if I say so, myself! LOL. So if the "number" doesn't leave you shaking in your boots guys, then say hi-what have you got to lose.....

Meet someone special from Canada. I am a kind, loving, and romantic individual with three grown children who mean the world to me. I value spending time with my friends and family. I own and operate my own business. In my spare time, you can usually find me in the kitchen cooking all sorts of foods, or at a desk putting pen to paper and writing poetry.
I am looking for an honest man who has a strong connection with his family. The type of relationship that I'm looking for is one with a lot of loyalty and respect.

. Loyalty is so important to me! My children and pets make me smile and belly laugh! My children are my pride and joy! I am grateful for every healthy day we have together! I a looking for someone who is loyal, faithful, chivalrous, kind, fun, non-temperamental, sense of humor! My social life is very quiet! I am a very focused parent! OMG so many things, I try to find humor everywhere, even bugging my kids! Honesty, faithful, empathy, open, large heart, a good communicator! My children and pets!

. I am positive person, looking for the same! Hoping to meet someone with a good sense of humour, who is also kind and considerate.
I would like to start travelling more, I enjoy walking my dog. will finish later.
Best of luck :)

. I really can't think of anything in order to impress. At this stage of my life, I understand what I really want and what I really need to be joyful. It's not easy to do a search on line, but I'm not giving up :) I am sure, the man of my dreams, my soul mate is out there somewhere. I am looking for my kinda handsome man, who can slow dance and make me laugh; who is not weighted down by issues from the past, who is happy and ready to love and be loved; and most of all - who is reliable. I am not asking too much, just wishing to attract the right person. I am well traveled, worldly, honest, direct, passionate, warm, loyal, and easy going--- no time for complications, the best is now...

. Hi
My 'site name' reflects my views/frustration on sign up and trying to get a password procedure struggles I had... not a reflection on how I see myself - or online dating sites for that matter. However, it is one which I can remember!
The attributes my friends describe me as include witty, smart, kind, trustworthy, and honest. They also say I work too much...
I am looking to achieve more balance in my life between work and non work and to finding a partner to share that balance (the non work part) with.
In the non-work part, I like to hang out, visit, read, cycle, golf (I can only get better!) the performing arts, travel, hiking and am open to suggestions.

. I am a hardworking, down to earth person who is a bit of a free spirit at heart. I love animals,people, and life in general. I am one of those people who need to take a few minutes when life hands you a hurt but then am able to pick myself up and get on with it. I love the outdoors and find time outside to be the most relaxing, especially when near water. I hate drama and have no time for games.I am looking for a man who likes to spend time outside, who is honest to a fault, who is as non-judgemental as I am, and who wants to date and see what might happen. I love to push myself just a little bit outside of my comfort zone now and then, and love hiking and swimming across lakes...just to see if I can still do it lol. I love all genres of music but want to feel moved to happiness, sadness, or any other emotion, by the songs I listen too. I love animals and don't want to spend time with anyone who hunts....sorry. I don't judge you for it but don't choose to have it around me :). I am a very passionate person and don't feel individuals need to conduct myself by rules that society dictates. If it is right and the chemistry is there that is all that matters. Probably doesn't sound like it but I am definately a romantic......I am not looking for an intimate encounter, just a man who enjoys touching and being touched, isn't afraid to hold hands in public, and who enjoys cuddling on the couch.

. I am currently separated. I do not need to be "completed." I am, however, looking for someone special in my life who is a friend first. This person must enjoy connecting emotionally through conversation, movies with a lesson attached and meals out. He, like me, must be financially responsible. I like peaceful, quiet moments as well as light social engagements with small groups. An academic at heart, I would likely be a good friend or partner with a career -minded gentlemen who recognizes that personal and professional growth is a pleasure and a must. I am in the best shape of my life and value the wisedom of getting older. It is important that my partner in life also keep in shape. We all have issues; honesty, self-reflection and a desire to evolve with the support of a partner would be great. I am a Christianspiritual person with a long career in education. The 2 most important children in my life, however, are my 2 young children, a girl and a boy. My wish is that we all find and keep the most important relationships intended for our lives.

. 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. :)
'Peace begins with a smile'
-Mother Teresa

. IРІР‚в„ўm a happy, passionate and outgoing woman hoping to find someone to share those special moments with. I enjoy travel, gardening, cooking, running, hiking, lively discussions about current affairs, spending time with my friends and family, and just being present. I am definitely a glass half full kind of person. I enjoy both my work and my time away from work. I love road trips where destination is not as important as the journey. I'm fortunate in that I often have extended periods of time off between work contracts that have allowed me to travel to far away places.
I try to live a healthy lifestyle, but IРІР‚в„ўm not obsessive about it. IРІР‚в„ўm happiest when IРІР‚в„ўm enjoying the outdoors.
I love spontaneity.
