Date women from Canada / Ontario / Oakville, 45 year old

Date a soulmate from Ontario, Canada. It is a challenge to sum up yourself and what you are looking for in a mate in a few lines, but here goes. Family, friends, work/life balance are very important to me. I enjoy working out & running and a healthy life style. Life is short and there is so much to see and do....which is always better when shared with someone speical in your life. I enjoy travel, doing anything outside ( in good weather, a little whimpy in cold weather. LOL); love a great meal with terrific wine - even better when prepared together, a round of golf, movie, trail hike and almost any new adventure.
I am looking for someone who enjoys similar interests, share some fun and new experiences with as well as pursuing an honest, trusting relationship. I am an independent, confident and dynamic lady looking for the same in my mate and someone to go forward loving life together : )

Meet someone special from Ontario, Canada. I have 2 kids, enjoy my job and work hard. I like to wear a suit but equally enjoy shorts and a ponytail. I can be a girly-girl and have a martini but was my father's son before he had my brother and I like beer too!~Humour is what keeps me sane sometimes! Love my kids... family and friends are important.
The guy that would be a good fit would be smart, established and sure of himself but not serious enough he couldn't laugh at himself. He has a career and humour is important as is a positive outlook. Kind hearted but not a pushover. Enjoys the outdoors and sports but also the finer things in life. Driven to succeed but is grounded with who they are. Enjoys children, his own and the opportunity to get to know mine, in time. Likes to share what they know and learn new things. A gentleman as well as a kid at heart. As much as I like to go to the states, for dating it would be a bit too much, so sorry guys.... if you're in NY...I know there are closer girls for you!

Date a woman from Ontario, Canada. If you are interested in someone who is curious, open, present, willing and able to commit, FUN, and lives every moment of life with just a touch of sassyness, then we may have started to connect. While I'm goal oriented to know where I'm going, I prefer to smell the tulips (my favorite flower ;-) ;-) along the way - BE present with all the details. My daughter is my absolute joy and greatest teacher. I highly value in self and others honesty, compassion, kindness, family commitment, spirituality and humour. Laughing is such a great anecdote! Music, theatre, reading, writing, meditating, playing with my daughter, dance, yoga, walking, flowers, pets, water, movies, travelling (work and pleasure) occupy my spare time. I'm looking for my partner to walk side by side in our journey.....the ups, the downs and everything in between :-). I love my life. I'd love to share it with someone. I love a great sense of humour and being with someone who wants to really connect beyond the commonalities and interests. Someone who knows what they want, knows who they are and is fearless to be open, honest, supportive, committed, playful and respectful in love. Let me know if you are open to the possibility.

Meet a soulmate from Oakville, Canada. ... to see Gehry's museum...
I am looking for a safe, fun, uncomplicated, honest, trustworthy friend who may eventually become more.... meaning he would be interested in coming home to someone he cares about. People know me as being calm, and pretty easy to get along with. Generally speaking I tend to care about the people I meet but it would be good to have a loyal home with a compatible, warm, intelligent, laid back professional who is looking to retire in the next few years. You are warm, caring yet sporty. You enjoy the arts. You have a happy, patient nature and you have a good sense of humour. You do not anger easily. You are kind, caring and protective. You appreciate the comfort of a familiar smile and you are a man of good character. You are fiscally intelligent, financially secure, a conservative spender or at least selective and wise in spending, and a happy gentleman with a kind sense of humour. In other words, you are a good man for a woman and a woman would be lucky to be at your side.
Every relationship needs some breathing room but consistent bonding with one is ultimately what leads to the happy settled feelings of the familiar feeling of a home and of belonging. Trust takes a while to build and so it takes some dedication, good intentions and lots of conversations...
I am hoping to find someone who I can possibly enjoy a cottage with, curl up in front of a campfire or just with a glass of wine and good book. Travelling to Europe to see Monet's garden would be a treat. I am hoping to take in the Picasso and the Van Gogh exhibits this summer. Someone who enjoys chatting over coffee or a glass of wine on a patio. Someone who likes to bike a bit in the summer... take in movies, yoga classes. I enjoy these activities but tend to fade away from them without company.
Anyway... some thoughts....

Date someone special from Oakville, Canada. Writing about oneself has to be the hardest endeavor. How to convey your personality within a few paragraphs….well here goes!
I have many friends but have several very close friends, some who I have known my entire life.
I am confident but very easy going, love to laugh and never sweat the small stuff!!
My friends say I am strong and can handle pretty much anything that gets thrown my way.....usually with seeing the "silver lining"
I am not one to wait for a plumber or electrician …..that being said …my insurance company loves me!
I never shy away from a challenge and try and push myself as much as possible.
I love to try new things, hot yoga and learning how to ski are my latest passions……so far so good, no broken limbs and no yoga pose that I haven’t been able to get untangled.
I have 3 children, a daughter in University and 2 boys in grade 10, apparently if you are male and in grade 10 homework is not assigned!
When I am not working or working out, I can be found outside in my back yard relaxing in the summer or spending the weekend at my brothersРІР‚в„ў cottage in the winter.
There is nothing more intoxicating than sitting outside under the gazebo during a rain storm
I am equally comfortable wearing the "little black dress" or jeans and a sweat top at a camp fire.....well not the "dress" at the camp fire :)
People tell me I am easy to talk to as I am not judgemental.
I enjoy entertaining my friends at my house and have worked hard to make it a warm, comfortable place to visit.
I also like watching hockey games both live and on T.V.
I am looking for someone who is confident, comfortable in their own skin, who likes to laugh but also values the rewards of hard work.
Someone who is not complicated and is able, on occasion, to laugh at himself….and more often me!!
I can always be talked into a Starbucks latte…

Meet someone special from Canada. I am a kind hearted and loving female, looking for the same qualities in a man. I enjoy running and am now taking up cycling. Staying in shape is important to me. I enjoy kicking back at the end of a day with a nice dinner and great glass of wine. Some of my favorite pastimes are boating, camping, spending time at a cottage and hanging out on the water. I value family and good friends.
Who am I looking for? You are honest, kind, and you value family and friends. You enjoy nice quiet evenings and also enjoy getting together with friends. You like to have fun, are lighthearted, enjoy a good laugh and don't take yourself too seriously all the time.

Date a woman from Canada. I have avoided the internet dating forum for quite sometime, however, I have realized it's time and who knows what could happen. About me: I am a strong, independent woman that enjoys a quiet life and I would consider myself a realist. I am truly grateful for my family and my friends are incredibly diverse. I enjoy working out and am involved in several team based activities. I would like to meet someone that is independent, enjoys the outdoors and I love to travel and experience other cultures. Honestly I think I am looking to meet someone who is real, likes to laugh, doesn't take themselves to seriously and conversation is important. I am passionate about everything in my life and I have had to learn through patience to live in the moment.

. At the core, I am an old fashioned girl with simple needs and I am looking for someone who believes that Life is not a destination; it’s a journey and I want someone to share that journey with. I want to start by building a strong friendship on mutual love and respect. Someone who is not afraid to show love verbally or physically. I am a true believer in a forever love and I need you to believe that to. I am not perfect; I don’t come without scars and imperfections so I don’t expect you to either. I believe the following quote: “Everyone comes with baggage, Find someone who loves you enough to help you unpack.”

. I am complex and multifaceted within harmony and simplicity. Evening gowns and jean cutoff shorts both work for me and are both desired. I'm a girly, girl who likes getting her hands dirty and living on the edge a tiny bit.
The perfect man for me would dance with me in the rain, kiss me on a crowded street, and pick me up so I didn't have to walk through a huge puddle in my heals.

. If you are interested in a strong, independent, and emotionally available woman, you are on the right track! Sure, life has dealt me some pretty serious blows, but I have confidently turned those stumbling blocks into stepping stones, and I am now at a place in my life where the first page of the next chapter awaits the pen to create the story.
Widowed a few years ago, I have come to realize what is most important in life and not to take anything for granted. I may view life a bit differently than before, but it is a perspective that challenges me to enjoy the moment, appreciate what I have, and never take anything for granted. These words are clich? for those who have never experienced extreme loss, but they do hold significance as part of my actual experience.
Having said that, I am not one who needs a man in her life; I simply enjoy being in love, sharing the special moments; and getting to know someone on all levels – emotionally, spiritually, intellectually and physically. Life is a gift, that’s for sure, but to share in that gift with someone special truly enhances every day.
Although I have a demanding and rewarding career and a busy personal life as a single mom, that does not mean I donРІР‚в„ўt have time to commit to an honest, open and committed relationship with the right man.
I am far from high-maintenance and definitely not a high-roller. ItРІР‚в„ўs the simpler pleasures in life that attract me, and I seek a man of a similar mindset.
What I appreciate in a match is one who is confident and ambitious, yet clothed in humility and compassion. He is one for whom kindness is an instinct. At the risk of sounding like every other profile on this site, I do value a man built upon a foundation of solid character, integrity and good moral standing. For him, those are not just words or slogans, but a lifestyle. They mean a lot when they are effectively and naturally put into place.
Physically, I do tend to gravitate towards taller men with brunette hair. I cannot explain why, but thatРІР‚в„ўs just who I am. I also appreciate a man whose lifestyle does not serve to compromise is overall health. In other words, I would probably not pair well with a smoker or excessive drinker.
I am a fun-loving, out-going, social woman who loves her life, her kids, and her career. It seems rather selfish to keep all the fun to myself, so why not put myself out there and see who wants to share in the joy with me?
Are you ready to expand your growing collection of amazing life experiences? I sure am!

. I live a balanced life, great job, great kids, great friends. I love cooking gourmet food, eating out, great wines, great music, travelling, living life to the fullest. enjoy skiing in Ellicotteville alternate weekends in the winter.

I am a combination of business, science and creative.
I love alternative music, old and new and have a very youthful outlook on life, yet I am mature and grounded. I enjoy spending time at home making awesome dinners with great wine, sitting out on the deck, lots of candles (even on weeknights, ambiance is important). I attempt to get the most out of life.
I have never had any difficulty meeting people, and tend to attract people a bit younger than myself..
Balance is critical in a relationship.. passion, friendship, trust and also humour to lighten things up.
