Date men from Canada / Ontario / Exeter, 39 year old

Date single man from Exeter, Canada. I find it very hard to write about oneself, but here it goes:
I have been told I'm a "nice" guy. Sometimes I feel I's to a fault.
Trust and honesty are the most important things for me in a relationship, I've been through a couple trying ones, but I'm a true believer that everything happens for a reason. I'm very open so feel free to ask me pretty much anything.
My brothers are my best friends, i have two dogs (both puggles) who make me smile or laugh at least once a day, right now my step daughter lives with me, i love playing, watching and coaching hockey, I've coached girls hockey for the last 4 years and will be again this season.
I work for a great company, which I've worked with for 10 years and I truly love my job.
I guess what I'm looking for is someone to be my best friend. Like I said trust and honesty are important, as is caring, sharing, love and affection. Everyone has a past, but it doesn't have to define who you are.
I read somewhere that you create your life every second you're living it. "You create every moment, and in doing so you create your future".
