Date men and women from Canada / Ontario / Ottawa, 46 year old

Date single man from Ontario, Canada. Ok here it goes
New to this just looking to see if there is a match for me. Easy going and down to earth looking for someone that has there own life as I have mine and want someone that is not dependent on others.

Meet men and women from Ontario, Canada. Quiet type of guy who won't raise his hand in a crowd, but will chat with friends or family in smaller gatherings, and give a shot at making the others smile and laugh...
Not very religious but I believe in karma. In other words, you get out of life what you put into it...
Work is important to me. I give it a 100%, well give or take a few percentage points. But work isn't where happiness comes from. That should be from one's own personal life. You still have to enjoy work because we spend a good chunk of our lives there, but being really happy comes from some other place...
I try to go to the gym two or three times a week. I'm also a "do it yourselfer", and independant.
I'm looking for someone that is independant and has her own career. Hopefully though, she wouldn't mind a guy that opens the door for her.

Date someone special from Ontario, Canada. Thank you for visiting my profile,
About you:
I like a woman who can debate, I like a woman who can be playful and can laugh and can take some teasing from me. I am looking for a woman who does not need a man in her life, but wants to share her life with a man. I am not looking for the trophy girlfriend, I'm much more interested in personality. You don't have to be a model for me to respond, but if you are a model...please prove to me that you're ALL not bat sh*t crazy.
About me:
I am capable of giving and receiving love and affection and companionship. When the spark and the chemistry and the attraction and the flow is allowed to exist between two people - the romance, emotion and love just blooms effortlessly. It is a beautiful thing to be in love, non? This is the treasure I have to offer to the right woman.
I am a phenomenal guy and the kind of man you do not meet every day (because men are rare / and boys...are everywhere). Capricorn. I am an athletic, playful man who loves the outdoors and especially the winter time for snowboarding. I am an alpine racing and freestyle rider and I like skiing, snow shoe and cross country.
In the summer its cycling, roller blade, tennis, kayak, and hiking. I like to play lots of sports but I also like chilling at home sitting on the couch watching movies or reading a good book. I train in martial arts Jiu-Jitsu and kick boxing 4 - 5 times a week.
I am an outgoing, gregarious, risk taking, passionate, classy, down to earth thinker of a man. Of Scottish Irish decent and always trying to keep the swearing down to a minimun.
I am gentle but strong.
I am good and kind to people around me but I don't take crap from anyone.
II save my money but then I see something I like and I buy it.
I am an optimist, young philosopher and intellectual. I can also be as dumb as a sack of hammers sometimes.
I dance like I invented it.
I love cats, mine is called "Shamrock"
I am well educated, well-read and I graduated from the school of hard knocks.
I love good music . I play the blues harmonica,(in elevators, in stairwells of tall buildings and in Churches when no one is in there praying and sometimes I don't care if someone is inside praying, I'll just play a Jesus tune. I am slowly learning to play the piano. I love to sing to my children at night and I will sing Elvis, Nat King Cole, Bob Marley and The Ink Spots if we go to a Karaoke bar.
I don't drink, smoke or use drugs.( It’s OK for you to drink and smoke)
I speak French and English and I can make friends easily in about a dozen or so languages.
I wake up every morning with this motto " I am going to live life to the fullest". " One day at a time" , "Easy does it", "Live and let live", "Thy will be done...not mine"
Looking for Love?... Find me :-)
Believe me, if we are the right match, you will not be disappointed.

Caring, honesty, compassion and loyalty. Someone who likes to help others and has a sense of giving back. Someone who has a

been to Europe New Zealand, Australia, Barbados and many other places. I enjoy different cultures and would enjoy to spend
vacation time with someone special.
I know it is difficult to find the right partner in life,,,, good Luck to All....

Date a woman from Ottawa, Canada. Someone once said , "good things fall apart in order for good things to fall together ". My friends would describe me as funny and easy to get along with. I am hoping to find the same in a relationship.
No head games , certainly no drama ! You need to be relaxed around each other and have easy conversation with similar interests. Nice and slow is the way to start off.
P.S. you have to pay for this site right ?
IF you are serious,.. then why not upload a picture ?
NO picture = NO response simple as that !
Hey we all have baggage, you wouldn't be human if you didn't have some, just make sure it's tucked neatly in the overhead compartment.... we will get to it later !
is it so much to ask for a nice, sincere, positive, funny, outgoing , cute :) guy ? I know you are out there somewhere..... BUT where ?!!
I know everyone is afraid to let themselves fall in love again,, but sometimes you just have to let yourself go and try.

Meet people from Ottawa, Canada. If you had a bird’s eye view into my life in any given week, what you may see on the surface is a woman in her mid-40s, co-parenting 2 children she loves spending time with, juggling a good job with its ups and downs, volunteering every other week, living in a neighbourhood she really enjoys, trying to fit in a couple of runs and maybe yoga – if she is being good, and currently struggling with putting together a BBQ with seemingly thousands of pieces.
A great day for me would be a hike in the woods with friends and their kids, followed by a swim in a lake nearby and a picnic. But my other great days have involved gardening, music at the Black Sheep, trying some exotic new dish, or reading my way through Barbara KingsolverРІР‚в„ўs novels. I love a good movie - international ones, the oldies, or a mystery. T.V. doesn't really happen in my life except for occasional download.
In the earlier part of my career, I was fortunate to live and work in Africa and Asia and it changed me forever and for the better, I’d say. I love to travel, but I don’t do it much now – the priorities are a bit different - they will shift again with time. These days, my adventures may come from a camping trip or taking that road less travelled. My politics are firmly on the left, and the radio dial is usually on the CBC. And although I am an Ottawa gal from way back...my south Asian heritage is evident everywhere, as are the other influences from Canada, Scotland and South Africa.
I was married for a long time and although I am surprised to find myself here, I am moving forward to other good things.
Would like to meet a fine man with similar interests and values. Patience, a generosity of spirit, a sense of humour, a comfort level with kids, an interest in community and global issues, having left the past in the past, and an interest in the possibility of something new are a good place to start with me... I find that life's adventures are best shared.

Date a soulmate from Canada. This is probably the way my friends would describe me: caring, sincere, young at heart, independent, and enjoys a good sense of humor.
I love music, reading, exercising, biking, skiing and traveling. With my work, I have been fortunate and have traveled to Europe quite a bit.
I was born in Wichita Kansas and moved to Montreal and then Gatineau where I spent most of my childhood and teenaged years. I later moved to Ottawa to be closer to by job. I have a wonderful daughter who is studying at McGill University.
I am looking for that special person that would make a difference in my life. Someone that likes to get out and do things and can also enjoy quite times. A good relationship starts with communication and being able to follow conversations through. So this is really important to me. I also think its important to respect one another's opinion and that its healthy to have some activities of your own.
If this appeals to you then I would like hear from you.

Meet someone special from Canada.
I am very energetic and love to downhill ski, play tennis and do yoga. Ideally, I would do something everyday, in reality, getting to the gym is a victory.
I live and work downtown. I like my neighbourhood because it is sometimes strange and never dull.
I read A LOT. But that is cool if you do not. We all need to have our own things.
I live my life at 100 miles an hour. But every now and then I have a day to myself and I think.... Wouldn't it be great to have someone to hang out with? Enough about me... what about you?

Date men and women from Canada. Hi - I am looking for an exclusive relationship. If you are the right man, I will save the best of me for you every day. You are a kind and honest man, like to have fun, go out, are into sports, theatre, and travel. You lead a balanced life and like to work and play ! You challenge yourself and like new things, new people, new adventures. You are affectionate and warm and have no problem expressing feelings.
You are unique and comfortable being so!
This is the kind of woman you could spend time with.

Meet a woman from Canada. Who am I? Well, "What you see is what you get" is what those in the know would say in answer to that question. And that would be true. I'm just authentically me. No games. No drama. No negativity. All of which seem to be everyone's concern. Just a happy, fun-loving, grateful and compassionate person, who trys to encourage the same in the people around me. My life, thus far, has taken me to some of the highest highs and some of the lowest lows, making it very easy to know what has meaning, and it certainly isn't what most seem to convince themselves has importance.
They'd also tell you that I'm a paradox: a cold beer or a smooth merlot; a tent under a million stars or a 5-star hotel; taking a spa day or cheering at a Sens game; out in a crowd or at home snuggling with you on the couch. Wearing a little black dress and killer heels, a business suit and conservative pumps, jeans and work boots, tights and runners ~ depending upon what environment people meet me in, they tend to put me in a box. But these are all me. I really can't think of very many things that I don't like to do (or at least wouldn't try). I'm genuinely happy to be anywhere and will have a good time while I'm there. It may be cliche to say, but it truly is who I'm with that matters, and my attitude, of course. I think for the most part, you can be as happy as you decide you're going to be.
I'm told quite often by people that they just feel good being around me, or they feel better about a particular problem that they've got after having talked to me about it. I think that's such a great compliment. I care an awful lot about everyone and everything, I work hard, I laugh harder and I love harder than that. And, I'd like to share all of those "me's" I mentioned with someone. Someone who will also just be themselves. I'll meet you where you are in life and we'll figure it out from there.
I don't have a cookie cutter recipe for what I'm looking for, I only know how I want to feel. And I can't describe that either...in fact, I think to try and put it into words would diminish it somehow. I'll just know it when I feel it. I can tell you that I'm at a really good place in my life and don't come from a place of 'need', but of one of 'want' of a relationship, with someone that adds to my life, and me to theirs. I can tell you that, of course, I want a person with integrity. Dishonesty in all its forms is a deal breaker for me. [However, like all women, telling me my butt doesn't look big in my jeans is okay. :-) But don't worry, I'll never put you in that position by asking the question in the first place.] . I'm looking for someone who's emotionally generous, loves to both give and receive affection and understands that being happy is much better than being right. Someone who is conscious of how they live their life and places value on kindness, happiness, gratitude and love. And they should have, or at least enjoy, a good sense of humor, as I love to laugh. I hope to make them laugh too.
This is such a huge leap of faith for me and certainly out of my comfort zone. But, life shrinks or expands in proportion to your courage, so ... proportionately, I look forward to seeing where this takes me. Life really is so very short and I want to do the best I can while I'm here.
As a side note: It's hard mustering up the vulerability to choose and then post pictures of yourself here, but it's important....and honest I think. So, I'm sorry, but if you don't have a picture posted, I won't reply.

Date people from Canada. Looking for that one great connection, a man who is not afraid of commitment but not possessive at the same time. The kind of connection that you just know! I am a business owner, have a fifteen year old daughter who lives with me every other week and a dog and they keep me busy...but I am looking to find someone special who can take me away from the pressures of the day to day and enjoy life as it is meant to be.
I thrive on a combination of life’s little pleasures: the sun, getting out on a boat, a great glass of wine, good food, yoga, golfing, traveling, writing… I love style, jewellery, shoes, clothes and can't go long without my favourite perfume. Keeping in shape, staying healthy (and flossed teeth!) are important to me and I expect the same in a long term mate. I enjoy great conversation and intelligent discussion along with some banter and sarcasm. Art, design, music, visual pleasures are on the top of my list as well.
You enjoy travel, art and interesting conversation. You like the finer things in life, can throw on a pair of cool jeans or dress up for a night on the town. We have much to talk about, but you need to contact me first!
