About Me

I'm retired but still full of spirit and silliness and think of myself as an individualist. My photos are recent and have been told I look quite sophisticated. It's how I look, NOT how I am. Actually, I'm very down-to-earth and unpretentious and prefer people who are the same. I was blessed to have inherited my Dad's sense of humor and you'll usually find me smiling or laughing at the absurdities of life. I usually make the best of things even when they don't go my way. I enjoy my home but like getting out, seeing new places and trying new things. I enjoy using my mind and have an interest in a wide variety of things. The things that make me most happy are very often the simplest things... time with friends, flea markets & yard sales (hoping to find an unexpected treasure), people watching, preparing a meal together (I'm a pretty good cook), going for a drive stopping for lunch at some charming spot we will find along the way. I've been single for a very long time and to tell the truth, I've never found the single life particularly satisfying. I enjoy being with others and what would make me most happy would be to find a parter I can love and cherish and share the joys life has to offer. I'm affectionate but not over-bearing, intelligent but not a know-it-all and I am considerate and thoughtful of others. There are many things I enjoy, but doing becomes delight when I can share it with the one I love. Honesty is most important and I treat others, including myself, with respect and fairness. Being able to share some of my interests with my partner is important to me but I think the most important thing to share is our values, our ability to communicate with each other and our willingness to compromise when we disagree. I think it's also important to respect our needs for private time.I have a delightful dog, a Havapoo (Havanese/poodle) who goes by the name, Shana. She's 12 lbs, very sweet and calm, and all who meet her love her. My music tastes run from jazz, the old standards, to the classics. I've been singing jazz all my life and a couple of years ago decided to study the craft and learn proper singing technique to preserve my voice till death do us part. I love a good discussion on many subjects: (currents events, what's been happening in our lives, sharing something we have recently read, thought provoking or funny movies, musicals and documentaries. Having said all that, I think the most important things in a relationship are the values we share, our ability to communicate with each other and our willingness to compromise if or when we don't agree and a respect for our needs for privacy. I am not a religious person but live my life with honesty, integrity and love. And after all is said and done, I'd love to meet someone who is kind, romantic, has some smarts, and is healthy with a healthy sense of humor and who lives within 50 miles of Portland. What's inside is more important to me than appearances although I must admit to finding excessive weight a turn-off.I think I'll end on that note and hope what I've written appeals to you.I prefer a first date to be very casual, meeting in a quiet, public place for coffee or perhaps to share a light meal. We'll get to know a bit about each other and share a few laughs. If all goes well we'll make plans to meet again. :-}

    I need popcorn when watching a movie and am known to smuggle bubble tea in at movie theaters - baggy jeans, that's what they're good for... If you carry a fancy purse that fit tons of chocolate, well I think we just might be soulmates.I don't mind the rain or snow - Its mother natures way of cleaning Granville Street... My muscles crave snowboarding and my feet feel complete on a skimboard... There's never a bad day to ride or too busy of a schedule. I treat my friends like clients - Billing them for my counselling service, loyalty and comedic gigs... They're cheques are all bouncing.There are 3 provinces between me and my family but they are as close to me as my heart beat. I love my family and wish you could meet them... Not on the first date of coarse, maybe 2nd date, we can all *** you should know about me is I don't like confrontation or arguments, so you are guaranteed to win 99% of fights. With that said, please keep silent treatments short, I need constant reminders of how much you love me... And where I left my wallet and keys.Even though my profile says I'm looking for dating, I'm also looking for friends and activity partners... So if you message me for the latter, i will do my best to not fall in love with you... Unless you have a cute smile, smell good and can cook, then yeh we might have a problem.Somewhere public with an easy escape route bahaha... I'm open to anything from lunch to movie to coffee to art gallery. Whatever will get us comfortable and talking about ourselves and life.
