Date men and women from Canada / Ontario / Kitchener, 58 year old

Date people from Kitchener, Canada. I've been blessed with many friends and a family that is close and nearby (I'm # 3 of 5). My social and work history is wide ranging, as are my interests. I thrive among people who are likewise engaged in life - be it creatively, intellectually or actively. I take fun and family seriously. I like "to do", but I also find it a character imperative to read extensively. I believe work, whether paid or through volunteerism, is integral to life and I expect to be a purposely driven participant for years to come. That said, romance, growing companionship and intimacy should be the ying to work's yang. Casually, I find it hard to beat discussion over good food and drink though like anyone I've ever met and connected with, will occasionally let my inner hedonist be coaxed out.
In university I played football and generally had a good time. I've worked everywhere from the mines as an explosives specialist to Main/Bay Street in financial services. I enjoy my home and though I grew up with dogs and disliked cats, I've resided with at least one feline now for over 30 years (my current live in approximates Audrey Hepburn in her later years). I divorced in '89 (no kids) and prefer the categorization of “single” (after all you're either single or you are not). Music is important to me and I am partial to all that derives from the Blues.
My Match: As suggested above: A complementary soul - a good conversationalist with a vivacious mind and broad interests. Someone with strength of character and wanting a relationship with shared leadership. Trim, attractive and socially adept. Persistently adventurous and seeking fun and intellectual growth. Enjoys nightlife, beaches, special events, .... and downtime. Has a fondness for music (enjoys the Blues) and stepping out occasionally onto the dance (or living room) floor to shake it a bit, or simply glide more formally. Demands loyalty and gets it because they recognize of the value of lifetime relationships.

Meet a man from Kitchener, Canada. I am very outgoing and friendly. I always look for the best in people. I am passionate about keeping physically fit and helping others who are less fortunate.
Respecting everyone no matter what the path they walk in life. I am proud of the fact that I ran 2hrs and 25 minutes at the 1981 Boston Marathon. Fourth Canadian.
I am looking for someone who is passionate, romantic and respects themselves and others. We all have needs on many levels and they need to be met. It goes both ways.
I lead a run group at Runners Choice in Waterloo on Wednesday nights at 6:30 and all are welcome. You always have someone to run with.
I enjoy most kinds of music except rap and hip hop. I am an avid reader of good quality fiction and non-fiction. I enjoy going to the theatre, especially the Stratford Festival. Hiking and exploring and experiencing new cultures. Would love to travel to Europe and Australia. Also love this great country of Canada.
Volunteering is very important to me. Currently, I am volunteering at a local youth mental health centre, teaching teens how to run. Very rewarding. I also love to cook.
I love good conversations on many topics. Any good relationship must be built on trust, mutual respect. I also feel it is important to support each other in whatever endeavor or project they are undertaking and to also give a person the space they need, those times when they need to be alone, but there when they call upon you for help if needed.
To sum up, to appreciate a person for the jewel that they are.
Love to hear from you. Coffee is a good way to break the ice.

Meet men and women from Kitchener, Canada. I am a confident, intelligent man who is interested in finding that special someone to share the rest of our lives together. Dancing and trying new things are of particular interest to me. As for me helping out around the house with the cooking/BBQ'ing is no problem & I am handy with my hands to keep things working. Basically I am your typical gentleman who is looking for the company of a nice lady.
My ideal match would be pretty lady with a nice figure as physical attraction is important but they must be a good person on the inside too. They must be a non-smoker.

Date single man from Kitchener, Canada. I search for an uncommon, child of God, who is a blend of the traditional and the present. A woman, who may be a lady, who is bright, bold, aware, not one to settle for the everyday. This elegant creature knows who put us in this life, and why, and how He should be honoured regulary, and not just when the urge hits, or the lottery is several hundred million dollars. Not a herd variety human being, and not a loner either, but somewhere in between - this person is creative and functional by day, but wants to be not at work, but instead of which: painting, writing, making ceramics, baking, caring for our child(ren), and maybe our retired parents, or someone else, who needs a hand, or some care. My mate wants to do many things together, and can have girl time or whatever to herself. Historically this type of female would defend the home and hearth, while her man was hunting, or chasing off some foe, and she is capable of swinging an axe or a sword, or can sow or weed, and cleans, cooks, washes, etc. but in modern times appreciates her mate to do all that she is capable of except maybe sew, mend, or preserve fruit. My ideal mate is completely balanced within our love and our marriage, and will ask or tell without prejudice. She respects a strong, kind, loving man, who is yet a man. We are all capable of stupidity, or doing something out of character once in a while. We are both forgiving and offer aid to the other, when necessary even still respecting both partners' strengths and independence. If this tall, intelligent woman does really exist, then here I am, with many more words and deeds, to describe myself, her and us.
It took many years, to have finally had my heart broken, and as I was blessed, with a phenomenal memory, a stubborn nature and, as an eternalist I will relive the elements, of my failure daily, yet this generates many heartwords which illuminate my Poetry - once one has partaken of the fruit, of the tallest trees, and inhaled her forbidden blossoms one cannot retreat to the lower shrubs willingly! The ether is less oxygenated at these romantic heights, and some stinging creatures also inhabit these eyries, yet the effort of this Love Safari is so well worth it! The environment I prefer is a combination of water, forest, and summit: to hike with one's mate, to swim unadorned, in a secret body of water, to silently stride through the sensuous greenery of the woods ... Combined with my Tigress we are formidable of spirit, body, and mission - envied by all but God himself who gave us Dominion, and sole passage of our infinite range ...

Date a soulmate from Canada. I know there is a wonderful person out there but where are you?........not feeling this online dating helps one meet anyone... I am seeing that people are doing way too much looking (checking out the cover) and not taking any time to get to know a person...........can't get to know anyone if you don't talk to them........thought that was why there is the option of winks and emails.............my sister set me up as she was optimistic about online dating and felt it was now time for me ...... I did have my doubts doing this and it would appear what I had thought might just be true......
if you are a wonderful, sincere, honest man who really just would like to meet someone please let me know as I am hopeful that not everyone here is on this site is on here for the wrong reason........it would be wonderful to meet a self confident,honest man who enjoys walks, traveling, theatre, the arts, going out for dinner or just cuddling and chatting with a good bottle of wine .
