Date men and women from Canada / Ontario / Toronto, 54 year old

Date men and women from Toronto, Canada. I am hoping you appreciate honesty and transparency. I am also hoping, by the end of this letter you'll have a pretty good idea if you want to share a little time with me...or a lot. If not...isn't it cool to figure that out right from the start! I am not interested in going out on a bunch of dates with multiple women.
If I have sent you a letter, please know it has come from my heart and careful consideration. I trust that what you wrote on your profile is true and I want to honour your dreams as well as my own.
I won't lie to you and I will endeavour to make you smile every day and make you very happy that you "took a chance" on that guy named Barry you met on "Match".
I hope to be your best friend, confidant, secret-keeper, shoulder to cry on, possibility thinker and...I am hoping you say, "He's an awesome kisser!"
I have been separated since 2008. In 2009 I survived a serious cancer scare. My former wife visited me in the hospital every day during the six weeks I was at Princess Margaret. I've always appreciated her support and she will always be a dear friend. We have three AWESOME children together and the kids love and understand the fact that Mom and Dad are still "buds" and they don't argue all the time. The marriage is over - The relationship remains and I am very proud of that.
Hearing the words, "cancer free" was a blessing and it has inspired me to live my life from a position of - What I REALLY want and HOW do I want to celebrate my life from now on.
Obviously, my heath is important, I recently released 75 pounds after gaining a bunch of weight during and after chemotherapy.
I have some more to lose and it's going very well.
Here is a vision of how the future may look for you and I...
It's 20 years from now...the year is 2032.
You wake up and find this letter on your pillow:
Good Morning Sweetheart
Happy 20th Anniversary!
After twenty years together, waking up and seeing your smiling face is still the thing that makes me smile from ear to ear. You are so beautiful...inside and out! You inspire me to be a better man every day that we are together.
My heart still smiles when I think of you and the fun things we have shared these last 20 years.
Your children and mine were so happy when we got together. They were all overjoyed that we found each other and shared our lives with such joy and appreciation.
Remember the trip we took through Europe? Greece was wonderful...but... Italy, Austria and Prague made us hold our breath and marvel at the beauty the God had graced us with.
Do you recall all the nights we went to the movies, the theater and charity galas? We always had a great time...because we were with each other.
We always enjoyed our friends whether it be playing cards, golf or just hanging out. It was always so nice to know that I would be spending the rest of the night with you...my best friend.
You have helped me so much. I was and still am your biggest fan. We helped each other grow as people and grew closer with each challenge and each triumph.
You were right beside me as I lost weight and continued my healthy eating plan. We both love chocolate and indulge in its milky smooth splendour from time-to-time...but we love each other and our health as well...so the chocolate is one of our secret decadent indulgences.
We enjoyed our walks together as well as the times we just lay on the beach and soaked up the sun.
You finally got me to read, "50 Shades of Grey" to you...out loud. I'll admit...that was fun!
Thank you Sweetheart, for WHO you are and HOW you "show-up" in the world.
20 years has flown by my love, I am pretty sure that "Match" is going to ask us to do an alumni commercial...
"These two met on Match.com in 2012 and they are still joyful after 20 years!"
Happy Anniversary Darling!
I would do it all over again!

Meet a man from Toronto, Canada. I enjoy many things including traveling, dining out, communication and conversation
(I am actually a good listener), playing guitar,
listening and watching live music, movies (popular or independent),
spending time outdoors, working out at the gym and on and on.
I try to make each day count, because I believe it's not how many breaths we take,
but how many things that take our breath away. Wish I coined that phrase.
I am much more of a giver than a taker and I truly get pleasure in making that special woman feel important every day.
I might be a little old fashion, because with me chivalry is not dead.
I have been told I have a great sense of humour but I suppose it depends on yours.
I'm looking to spend quality time with a woman that could eventually become my best friend and who also enjoys similiar interests and activities.

Date people from Toronto, Canada. If I may invite you into the future just a little...
It's 20 years from now...the year is 2032.
You wake up and find this letter on your pillow:
Good Morning Sweetheart Happy 20th Anniversary!
After 20 years together, waking up and seeing your smiling face is still the thing that makes me smile from ear to ear. You are so beautiful!
My heart still smiles when I see you walk into a room.
I love the way we "clicked" when we first met and the moment I touched your hand...That was it!...I was smitten!
Our children were blown away by what a match we were right from the start. Your kids and mine encouraged us to get together simply because we were meant-to-be. They all liked the fact that we seemed to be made for each other.
The last 20 years has been amazing. The trip to Europe saw us visit Tuscany, Prague, London, Switzerland and Austria.
Our trips south in the winter were filled with joy, laughter, fun and of course - Love.
We helped each other celebrate our talents and we grew our businesses together.
Your trips with the girls and mine with the guys were nice...but no match for the ones we took together.
Whether snuggling in an airplane seat on our flights - or snuggling on the couch while we were watching our favourite movies - it was always fun...because we were together.
Happy Anniversary Sweetheart...I'd do it all over again. I love you!
Barry

Meet someone special from Toronto, Canada. i have much to be grateful for: two beautiful children who are almost grown (aren't we all?), loving family and friends, and a fun and rewarding career that has spanned journalism, politics and government, and now professional sports. And yet there is something very significant missing, and the time has arrived to start my personal life anew, looking for someone new. That's daunting, yes, but also exciting. I'm looking for someone fun and caring and attractive and funny, who can share a few of my passions -- for sport, including golf, basketball and, yes, Canadian football, for family, for comedy and classic movies and all sorts of things -- but who will also share many of her own with me. I guess we all want to be embraced at first, and accepted at last, for who we are, not who someone wants us to be, and I'm no different. I'm a confident person with a dry wit and yet I tend to be self-deprecating. I am established but don't tend to think of myself as "establishment": I pull for, and have been known to work on behalf of, underdogs. I think our daily interactions with people deeply matter, and I like to maintain a running joke with each of my colleagues, mentor when asked, learn from them whenever I can, and count each of them as a friend. I am comfortable in the city but also enjoy getting to my place in the country. I enjoy travel and have been lucky enough to get to China and India and almost everywhere in CAnada and parts of the U.S. But I believe the greatest joys can be found anywhere: a child's joy, a friend's joke, a beautiful woman's smile, a knowing look, an inviting glance. The more I know the more I realize i still have a lot to learn. The more I age the more I recognize the ten year old boy inside me. And the more I write here the more I worry I'm sounding terribly self-indulgent. This is a new world for me -- posting one's photo and blurb in an attempt to introduce something as profound and complex as a human being. But I am certainly willing to try. And, perhaps, you are willing to try, with me, too.

Date single man from Toronto, Canada. Hey. Thanks for checking in.
Me? Young 54.
Passionate and creative, stable, secure financially and otherwise, caught somewhere between sincere and anything for a laugh . . . am entirely comfortable in most any of life's circumstances - yes, and that includes those most challenging times. I understand that the power of sharing with someone, whatever you take-on or that which life throws you, is one of life's great treasures.
I enjoy life and my interests vary considerably. . . I am equally as comfortable sharing quieter moments as I am a high energy pace . . .
For me? You know who you are. I give what I like to get - the essentials: passion, honesty, laughter, balance, trust, giving, curiousity . . .
So much more. . . the journey continues.
Ready? lol

Meet a man from Ontario, Canada. I am looking for a special woman of substance with whom to enjoy some summer fun. If we click I am very much open to sharing many more summers, winters, springs and falls.
The woman I seek may be a vanishing breed...I hope not. She possesses the very elusive mix of small town values and big-city sophistication no matter where her place of birth. Shopping and fine-dining are not her preeminent recreational pursuits. She is well read and has developed a thoughtful, reasoned world view whether right, left or centrist. She may regularly volunteer because she has been blessed, knows it and appreciates that giving back is part of the natural-law-of-life.
She enjoys men and male company but may not be a sports fan. She may have brothers or male friends and appreciates the inherent challenges and joys of the male/female dynamic. Though loath to admit it she enjoys gentle, affectionate �ribbing’ and is more than capable of �defending herself’. Sarcasm is rarely part of her repertoire. Others have defined it as being the lowest form of humour. I tend to concur.
An affinity for adventuresome travel, physical activity in some form and a disposition that one might call extroverted-introversion would be very special indeed. In fact I would throw rose petals and have a statue struck.

Meet someone special from Ontario, Canada. I am an active and interesting working professional rediscovering the joys of his hometown after several years away.

I am creative and enjoy relaxing with some paints, pastels and some paper. I love to barbecue for my friends and love spending time on a nice beach.

My friends, who do not always tell me the truth, have told me that I am funny, generous, passionate, honest, intelligent, and loyal. You'll have to accept their unreliable word assuming, of course, that they are indeed my friends.
I consider myself to be down-to-earth and empathetic. I am very committed to social equality and diversity. In the past, my romantic partners have always been my best friend and confidante and I would not and could not have it any other way.
I love music and enjoy playing the piano in my spare time. A woman who is musical would strike a chord with me.
