Date women from Canada / Ontario / London, 54 year old

Date someone special from London, Canada. My greatest accomplishments are my 2 sons 30 and 27 years old..and so very grateful for their health and determination to succeed in life and live their lives fully. My job is done with these guys so it's time for Mama to seek out a great guy that will live, laugh and love with me as we move on to new adventures. I am a very social person, but cherish moments of solitude as I enjoy playing the piano and reading. I love to smile and giggle and can find humor in most situations or at least try. We have one long journey on this planet and it's important for me to feel like I'm living each day the best way I can and to celebrate whenever we can. I will always love a person that smiles! There's an adage that I'm particularly fond of..."what if someone you never met, someone you never saw, someone you never knew turned out to be someone for you?" I think I can put that to piano one day...maybe when I'm really old and they tie me to "baby" for support...regardless of the relationship, be it lover, friendship, meeting new co-workers, your new and chosen"family" or redefining your "hood" with a move, I believe this happens everyday. And so I need to believe in this form of communication too. So cheers to everyone on this road less travelled and may you meet that special partner and share in a special journey that only remains to be seen. Embrace and have fun!!
Now let's talk about attributes..not sounding bossy here..but we all have them..and we are all a little sprinkled with maybe some other issues that may or may not be savoury depending on who is looking into your life. Life is fun isn't it? All this appears to be topics for discussion or maybe reasons to start up a conversation..mystery can be good sometimes..
So, I'm taking a stab as to what I value in a special man..54 years on this planet and I haven't quite nailed that one yet..I know he has to have substance..you know, the real meat and potatoes..honest, caring, a bit of intellectual, a lot of laughing and smiling, and, oh yeah, a good loser when it comes to cards. Conversational and spontaneity are must-haves. I'm looking for my best friend here, not a fly-by-night-seat-of-my-pants type of guy...did I mention a big heart? I want to listen to the same type of music, ok? So, I wish for a 53-62 year old. I'm not into cougar like moves and I'm not quite near the "walker stage". Rock n' Roll and dancing is still alive and well in me. Must be tall..hello..I'm 5'10"..I'm not into stooping or developing a hunchback @ this stage. I need to look @ that special someone right in the eye or wear heels to do same. I'm looking for my special man.

Meet a woman from London, Canada. I am looking for that special someone to share special moments with such as a romantic walk along the beach, snuggling in front of a roaring fire with a glass of wine, watch a good movie and good conversation.
I am a dog lover, as you can see in my pics. Family and friends are very important to me. I feel I am a very trustworthy friend and am also looking for the same in a mate. I have been on my own for awhile and am financially stable. Some say I can have a bit of a warped sense of humour, but it does keep others on their toes.
I realize we all have some baggage that comes with us. Generally speaking, my baggage is small enough to fit under the seat! I feel in a good relationship, it should be give and take as well as being each other's best friend. I enjoy lots of hugs, snuggles and laughs. I feel it is the little things each day that can make such a difference.
Love to listen to 50's and 60's music as well as country. My favourite group is The Moody Blues and it would be great if that special someone also shared my love for the oldies but goldies music. I enjoy many types of movies but stay away from horror/slasher movies.
I am looking for someone that is financially independent. This special person also needs to have a kind and honest heart. I definitely am looking for someone who makes me laugh. My ideal mate would be my best friend for life.
PS - I do not date married or separated men so please do NOT send any messages if you are either of these status

Date a soulmate from London, Canada. I am fairly easy going, at times a little shy but once I get to know you...look out! :) I am sensitive, good natured and enjoy sharing a good laugh. Sense of humour is important, as is the ability to not take oneself too seriously. Honesty and integrity mean a lot to me. Simple gestures can sometimes be the most meaningful. Good conversation is important and I enjoy low brow and high brow kinds of fun. Music (live or canned-especially jazz, blues, middle-eastern, even classical), home cooking and dinning out. I am vegetarian and I eat healthy most of the time but I'm not fanatical. I enjoy the outdoors and hiking, visual/performing arts, architecture, design, and film. Junk stores, antique hunting, small town surprises and discovering new places are a fun way to pass an afternoon. I am concerned about the environment, and I'm generally into healthy liviing.
I would like to meet someone who feels comfortable with themselves and is not looking for someone to complete them, yet not so set in their ways that they aren't ready to be in a real relationship. I am realistic about relationships and I know they can take work and require compromise. It would be nice to meet someone and develop a relationship where together we could continue to grow and discover what life has to offer. Yes, I am a romantic at heart but my feet are planted firmly on the ground. Being honest and straight-up is important and so are good manners, compassion and the ability to be genuine. I am not into the bar scene as a way to meet men. I am a big animal lover, especially dogs (sorry, allergic to cats), I am political about certain things and committed to my beliefs but also open to hearing about yours. IРІР‚в„ўm comfortable in jeans and being casual but when the time and place require it I am equally comfortable dressed up.I am a professional and would appreciate someone who is the same.
I'm looking for someone who has many of the same or compatible qualities, morals, ethics. I am affectionate and loving and I would like to meet someone who is not afraid of showing his emotions but of course, all in due time. I like someone who can be serious but who is also not afraid to laugh at themselves.
I never thought I would find myself here but then again life is full of surprises and I'm not afraid to take a few risks. If what I have to say sparks an interest I hope to hear from you.

Meet someone special from Canada. I like to experience new things whether travel or just bike rides or hikes to out of the way places. After expending some energy I am always ready for good food and wine and music and some quiet intimacy or just good conversation.
Humour and positive thinking are important; as are loyalty, dependability,generosity and caring.
I am grateful for many friends and for my two grown children who have become good human beings.
I am also grateful to have experienced one good and loving relationship and still be open to explore a second!!
An intelligent, energetic, fun, adventurous type would suit me as long as he can slow down for some hugs and quiet time and enjoys good food, wine and music!!
He should be loyal and having time for a good woman who wants to share in his life.
I like to be with someone who is successful and accomplished in what they do and has focus but is also well rounded.
I like to laugh and am always responsive to good witt and even sarcasm (if well intentioned) and can even laugh at myself ;which I think is left over from my British up bringing!!
I dont have too many ties and would like to have a partner who can afford and enjoys some travel and weekend trips around Ontario.
It is great to see live sporting events and concerts even jazz or blues in small venues (on a patio is perfect).
It would be nice to think there is someone else who has my eclectic tastes but I am flexible enough to add on new interests. I want to admit I have recently tried fishing and found out i loved dangling my line in the water from a boat even of I was not to sure what to do if I got a bite??
Hoping to find a true friend and partner and if there is an energetic man with a good soul and of course intelligence, then activities can be negotiated!!

Date a woman from Canada. I recently moved to London, Ontario so no longer live on the farm. I am busy unpacking and writing, painting, exploring the city and enjoying my new apartment. Today I bought a Beta fish and named him Al(short for Alpha). I needed someone to talk to while I unpack. I laugh out loud at America's Home Videos although I don't watch it that often. In fact friends and family like to watch me laugh while I watch that show! I am very selective about who I allow into my life. I want to take things slow, find someone I can relate to first. I am fine being single but am open to sharing my life with someone who is on the same path.I'm very much into downsizing and living simply. I have been gardening/landscaping the yard and getting my hands dirty.. I'm pretty handy with a hammer or a paintbrush. In fact I sold my first painting and I didn't even know the person. Of course, I wouldn't expect my friends and family to pay. Painting is a hobbie I hope to pursue in the near future. I can't respond to e-mails yet because I haven't signed up yet. I plan to sign up soon. I have been commissioned to write a book that has me busy but due to the contract, I cannot discuss the content. Not until it's published of course.
Until recently, I have worked with university students with disabilities(mostly Deaf). I know sign language and some Greek(I lived there years ago so I am really rusty) I've read many profiles and realize my story sounds boring.
I will update my profile as I get more comfortable with this mode of communication.
The reason I don't have any photos is NOT because I am ugly lol. I'll get around to it.
