About Me

Not looking to be taken care of but would welcome being cared for and eventually loved. Yes, I said the "L" word..if that's scary for you...please stop reading now. Wanting to meet someone to do things with, I love my life and am tired of living it alone. My girlfriends are all in relationships and I'm always the proverbial "fifth wheel"...so I opt out of functions and work *** I might add. It's time to get balance back in my life...work to live, not live to work as they say.I'm independent yet don't want to go it alone. It would be nice to share my life with someone. To know I have a strong shoulder to lean on, someone I can depend on, at those times when things get overwhelming and I don't know which way to turn. Occasionally I just need a hug, and the reassurance that everything will be alright, as much as I love my Dad, it's just not the same as if it were coming from "my man". :). Would love to meet someone who wants what I do. Not looking to move in together or get married after the first date thank you but do want to share my free time with a significant other with the hope that the relationship will develop into something long term. You should like (or even better love) dogs as I have two and we are a package deal (no different than you guys with kids still at home but I can send my "kids" off to boarding camp when I want to go away on a trip, I hope you have that flexibility too). You're a little bit old school, and know how to treat a woman, you're a romantic at heart. You enjoy travel to warm tropical places when it's cold in BC, exploring our beautiful province in the spring and summer months, fishing, going for long walks/hikes (with the dogs), dining in or out, reading, playing board/card games, music (extra points if you favor R&B of the 60's, 70's, 80's), the occasional movie, preferably at home, curled up on the couch with a beverage and appies readily available. You relish the thought of sleeping until 9:00 a.m. on a Sunday morning...lol. I am complicated in an uncomplicated way and I live a simple life. I believe in karma and paying it forward. Yes, I have my faults, but if you can't deal with me when I'm at my worst, you'll certainly not be able to handle me at my best. I give as good as I get. I am fortunate to have been blessed with both brains and beauty (so I've been told). I can be wild and crazy, calm and demure, sophisticated and classy, down and dirty, a little girl, a mature woman. I can be athletic or lazy, conservative or liberal, silly or serious. I'm hard to define and perhaps best described as a predictably, unpredictable, multi-Love your life, like I do, and be looking for some one to complement it, not complicate it.When I look back over my life, I don't want to be one of those people who says "I wish I had", I want to be someone who says "I'm glad I did". ~ Me I, with a deeper ***, choose a man who compels my strength, who makes enormous demands on me, who does not doubt my courage or my toughness, who does not believe me naive or innocent, who has the courage to treat me like a woman.” - Anaïs Nin As long as it's legal, doesn't hurt me or anyone else or involve being outdoors in really cold, rainy, dismal, dark, windy, I can't stand it anymore, I need to get out of the lower mainland weather.........I'm in :)

    The dreaded box that is supposed to tell any and all possible readers about ourselves and what we are looking for. Sounds easy enough ... So then why do I have writers block ? Laughter and great conversation are at the top of my list. A real connection with someone who genuinely wants to get to know me and will allow me the honor to know his thoughts and feelings. I would like to have someone in my life , to share adventures , bottles of wine , silly text messages. I am easy going and do not come with a big bag of drama ! It is a start at least ... Update : It donned on me this morning that online dating is kind of like shoe shopping ...When I first hit the "search" button and all the various profiles come up on my screen, I recognize the same excited feeling I get when I enter a shoe store. All the many types and styles catch my curious eye. At first darting quickly from one to another, and then, choosing a few that make my heart race - just a little. I see the flashy, sparkly man / stiletto. Always a good choice for a fun night out. Alas, in the end however, the evening usually ends with my feet feeling a little sore and my heart longing for more.The athletic man / shoe is also a choice at times. Flash forward to climbing The Grouse Grind as a first date. I am sucking on my asthma inhaler , my perfectly straightened hair going frizzy from all the perspiring I am doing and my water bottle being drank with the same enjoyment that I sometimes feel for a lovely bottle of Pinot Grigio. Not always my first choice, but with the right encouragement can be good for the soul.High on the shelf there is also the comfy man / shoe. Perfect for quiet evenings at home, watching a movie or grabbing take out food. Sweet. The never go wrong kind of guy / shoe. The ever popular flip flops / man ! Let's grab a blanket and head to the beach with your guitar and some food ! ( Note to self : get a pedicure ) Oh , and then there are boots / men !!.. The choices are endless ... Some days on here, a few catch my eye. Some days, I need to keep looking as nothing quite fits my life right now. I wonder what today will bring ?Good luck to all in finding just the right fit for our perfect day !! A bottle of wine and a quiet spot , so we can have a real conversation.

    I hope to meet someone who is serious about meeting someone and being with them. I am not high maintenance and extremely loyal and dedicated to my daughter, family, friends, job and man!Would love to meet someone to do things and laugh with. I know it can be difficult. I believe you just need to make the effort to get to know someone and I believe it does not take long to figure out whether or not the compatibility is there. If physical attraction is all you're looking for..well, you know where that usually ends up. However, for me, a man has to be at least kissable! Sense of humor is definitely an asset. It's what makes a man sexy!I work hard and am serious with my job. Some things in life too where you have to be serious about I am. But there is nothing wrong with playing hard too and simply enjoying life. I am basically a jeans and t-shirt woman and enjoy life from a more laidback perspective. Maybe a bit quirky too!I'm a rocker at heart (classic rock), but like all kinds of music..if the song is good and has meaning, it's all good. And who doesn't like The Blues?Just looking for my friend, lover, companion and helpmate. If you feel you are on the same page and would like to get to know me..I look forward to you contacting me.Sometimes you have to do what's best for you and your life..not what's best for everyone else. “We owe each other truth and courtesy - though truth is sometimes a real constraint and courtesy inconvenient.” Max De Pree (born ***;Please:- Be taller than me- Have a nice smile (since I love to do that!) We can both decide!

    Woman. 55 years old. Zodiac sign: Gemini.

    Looking for: man. In age: 52-62

    I like to say that I try to live life to the fullest & best suited with an adventurous man aged ***as I am 57. After enjoying adventure in Thailand last year, I was ready to concentrate again on visiting world class cities via home exchange in Europe or elsewhere. So for future adventures, I have not yet been to NW Europe, St. Tenerife off of Spain with an incredible parrot refuge is an island I will go to again. My current favourite activities include what's below but the more I do them myself or rely on girlfriends to go with the more I think of eliminating some. Please let me know what you are passionate about that is on my list.skiing Whistler on a powder day, sojourning or travel to other world class cities via home exchange, open to trying contra dance this year at St. James, cooking and eating healthy whole food meals, reading non-;; Follies, snorkeling the G.B.R and Koh Tao.-retired / retired person, I manage my own investments both real estate and financial, so I can take my job with me if a ***month (or longer) home exchange comes available. I also am working on making my life easier and more fun so only doing the above very part time ***months per year is my goal. Exchanging lives worldwide has been very rewarding over the years. But I am open to alternate guided and/or adventure travel suggestions from a new fun travel partner. I have gotten a lot of travel desires out of my system since ***so I am very relaxed about the need to travel.When it is time to chill out, I would rather listen to music in front of a fire or view rather than watch TV unless there is an excellent foreign streaming video. I can also enjoy reading a good book or my kindle in front of a fire or view. And I do have a nice chessboard that has not been used in a long time.I value most loyalty, honesty, integrity, family and friendships. Giving back is important to me.I have had 2 very long term relationships. One for 17 years with the father of my son who now has his own 2 children, my grandchildren. The second relationship with my adventure partner lasted 22 years and only personal circumstances parted us not our compatible desire to be true to our adventurous selves. My father played the harmonica, violin, and the mandolin at home when I was growing up so I gained an appreciation for many kinds of live music with lots of arrangements. I particularly love Improv jazz and blues, classical, rock and roll, Latin, & Zydeco. My parents also had me dancing at the Queen E theater so dancing brings out the kid in me. I love it too. What am I looking for? ALERT I am not interested in "Friends with benefits" The goal is to find someone who can align with me so we can build a great adventurous lifestyle together but we still have separate homes. Those men who have to keep leaving town just before they get emotionally involved, need not apply. I am looking for a respectful and meaningful relationship.So I need you to be partner-oriented because I am looking for an available partner to plan & But I now have some available girlfriends with common interests too. Then I also ask: Are you an adventurous, romantic man who is looking for a seasoned world travel partner to also take a few trips yearly with now that your kids have grown up and started their own lives? Are you a fit, semi -retired or retired nature lover? Are you interested in knowing about and helping each other fulfill each other’s desires? Can you discuss important current events and world topics with respect for your partner? Would you enjoy cooking healthy foods with me and sometime entertain a small group with me? Is music an essential part of your life? If so, I would like us to take our time to really get to know each other. I am interested first in developing new life-long supportive friendships with like-minded people my age. And if a fire starts for us during this time, all I can say is when it rains, let's take a contra dance lesson if we are staying in town. Hi: Thank you for your interest in meeting. I would be happy to meet for tea or coffee in Kitsilano or downtown. If we choose to visit longer, there is a nice seawall near by. Or you pick an area to meet. Or lets video *** preference is to meet attractive, non-smoking, well-educated, semi-retired or retired men aged ***who live nearby or near the ocean. I love being in nature but I must be near the city for all it offers as well. ALERT I tried to change the age that shows on the profile last fall and assumed I succeeded but did not check. While I am grateful for looking very young for my age, the age should read 57.
