Although I am not religious I am honest and very faithful to the woman I love. To me cultures are like food. Every cultures food has something good that you like and foods you don't. No one cultures' food is the perfect one. Most important fact at this point in my life, so read carefully and to those who look further into my profile and want to know me more, know that I am man that totally commits' and devotes himself to his woman. I am divorced this year – separated for 2 years (actually could be said longer than that). • I am 57 years old, 5’ 5” tall, brown hair and eyes, slim build, and healthy. • I did have open heart surgery to repair a torn Mitral valve – fortunate for me I had enough flesh around the valve that the surgeon was able to use it, so I have my own valve and not a mechanical one. I will say that I am grateful that my ex-wife was there during this part in my life. My mother and brothers would have stepped up otherwise, but still she could have just vanished. • I have a beautiful son (I tell my colleagues that he is a chic magnet – all the women want to hug him and have him around and they total ignore me like I do not exist – haha, I hope he can have the same effect when he is older). He is currently 7 years old and lives with me. So, this may be the most critical part for some women out there. • After the divorce we paid off all our debts and there is nothing left. I am starting over. All I have to my name is: o an empty bank account (which I am working on building up again) o a car o several tools o a comic book collection (haha, yes there may still be a little bit of child in me – but I am looking to sell most of this collection – not worth much, so should unburden myself of most of it) o my health o a good job - 20 years with this company, working various positions from maintenance helper to Maintenance Manager to Senior Property Manager to Building and Asset Manager and now as the Director of IT o the most invaluable person in my life, my son o Also, my two best friends (who happen to be sisters (Suzanna & Lulu) from Beijing) and their families. We have been friends for 20 years and roommates for 10 years. I cherish every moment with them!

Hello! Well here we all are, curiously believing that somewhere out there is the true thing. Well, the following will probably convince you that I am not the one, but who knows! Originally form Spain, with some English roots. A strong longing for space and nature eventually took me and my young family to Canada. That was 14 years ago now. Life happens and marriages break. I've been alone for the last 5 years, except for my teenage daughter that spends at least half her time with me. She is growing up fast, and it won't be long until she is too busy to spend time with me. She doesn't know I'm on dating sites (I don't think), and she will be upset once she finds out. And she will not like you. She is a lovely caring person and can't help a little jealousy. Perhaps once she finds a boyfriend herself she will be more tolerant towards my own hopes. She is a bright, artistic and creative person. And my son, a kind and caring young man in his early twenties now, has been living in Spain for a couple of years. Most of my family are in Spain, and I go over to visit every other year or so. I would describe myself as kind, excessively gentle and out of synch with the world, which makes me love the solitude of nature as a less painful loneliness than that of being surrounded with well intentioned but incompatible people. I will hope you are always by my side for social events, and will probably disappoint you from time to time for not wanting to go to social events... Inoffensive, very honest and loyal. Ambitious, but not for career or experiences, but rather for time and space. I will often upset you by this need for solitude if, when I sometimes retreat even from you, you interpret it as fading love. Yet I will love you intensely, even when I seem distant. I will not show my love for you in public (unless I sense that you long for the display, and I will try against my instinct. This will likely not end well). I have a need for sadness that I satisfy with music, or movies (or both), and enjoy sad, tragic stories. Yet I think family and close friends will present me as very funny (quirky humour) and playful (I tend to prefer to interact socially by playing games). I enjoy comedies, and romantic comedies. I have a lot of admiration for Billy Connolly as a standup comedian, and enjoy Michael McIntire (I especially like the fact that he rarely criticises in his humor). I do laugh a lot, enjoying almost all humour. Especially some internet stuff!! Yet I will always retreat and return to my loneliness and sadness. I don't like to much happiness... Well if you are not convinced that I am some sort of psycho in disguise yet, you might want to ask your friends for help (although I personally don't think I am one). I will love listening to you when you come home and tell me all about your day, but will often say little in return. Sometimes my lack of communicating might upset you. I will see and feel your love just by body language, I have no need for constant communication for reassurance, and will be a poor parter to you if you do need it. A true honest smile of happiness, a sincere embrace when we see each other is more real to me than any words. Films: - What's Eating Gilbert Grape - Song Of The Sea - Grave Of The Fireflies - The Princess Bride - Social realism such as Ken Loach's movies -... Music is very important to me: - Clannad - Eminem - The Cranberries - Sad classical - Dire Straights - Manu Chao - Dead Can Dance - Dark techno - ... I regularly bash on a piano for my own satisfaction and love it, but I don't think I can call it playing... From a philosophy standpoint, I almost completely agree with Khalil Gibran's outlook. I love his work. I live on a nice plot of land outside a small city an hour flight from Vancouver (or a beautiful 8 hour drive), in and old little house that I am slowly renovating. Beautiful open British Columbia, full of trees and rivers, where I occasionally meet moose, deer, bear and many other fellows and I still feel honoured every time it happens (you will tire of me pointing them out to you!). The weather is spectacular; Spring always reveals itself as a desolate and unsightly brown landscape crushed flat by the weight of winter, but also vigorously exciting. As the snow melts, you can feel and hear ever increasing water trickles and streams, which will grow into raging rivers by the end of May, and you can sense the tension of life awakening in a slow burst of green. The winter silence is gone, birds will sing loudly. And the aroma of earth and vegetation slowly returns. We often have nice sunny days, but we also see stately storms passing by in the distance, with blurry gray skirts of rainfall below and the thick clouds above shining white and orange. Summer is greeted with an exuberance of green and flowers, often hot sunny days that call for a swim or canoe paddle in a river or lake, sometimes with passing thunderstorms that break the monotony. Autumn is my favourite season, with its slow, beautiful decline into amazing colors, fresh breezes, golden leaves flying, cloudy skies and a feeling of longing and melancholy. The most beautiful season, with sunsets that never fail to touch you. Finally comes the feared winter, a season for those seeking solitude and beauty. Snow comes and inexorably accumulates, sometimes in storms, sometimes in delicate showers. The landscape becomes a white wonderland, still and silent. The trees often struggling to hold all the snow, and sunsets of pink and purple that contrast between the snowy blanket shimmering blue and the dark grey sky. Sometimes we have weeks of bitter cold that only the brave will face outdoors. Harsh and beautiful. I am not discarding the possibility of relocating to your location, although it will take time. And I am currently in an ideal location anyway. But once I fall in love I will go off to find you wherever. If only you liked it here as much as I do... Congratulations!! You have now completed your mini-course on how to identify weirdo's!

I am looking for a long-term relationship. Some people put this long list of things they want in a partner. I see it in a much simpler way, I want someone I enjoy being with. The best thing I have to offer is the benefit of the 100s of mistakes and 1000s of errors I’ve made. I know the difference between whats important and what isnt. Adversity has molded me but its never defeated me. When I was younger I needed a woman to make me more mature; now I'm older I have been through some really difficult ordeals in my life and bounced back, this has given me the courage to be fully emotionally available. I live healthily, exercise everyday and swim without fail. I have been described as having many layers. I’m a dreamer who strives to be a pragmatist. I don’t think it’s appropriate of me to sing my own praises, but I can say that I do vigorously strive to have integrity, honesty, to be truthful and sincere. I am grateful that all the mistakes I’ve made have helped me have a high level of self-awareness. I think my single most defining characteristic is my intellectual curiosity. I am an autodidact and I learned that word all by myself. I want somebody with integrity and who is sincere. A relationship with someone without them is doomed. Once I reach a certain age I realized that a good partner is hard to find, and so when you do get one, you had better be really nice to them, so that they stay with you; because if you lose them, you might never find someone to replace them with. I have been dealing with medical issues for the past 5 years, so I’ve not been dating at all and the lack of female companionship has made me gain a new appreciation of female companionship and all the good things that go with it. Holding hands seems like a big deal when you haven’t done it in 5 years, so I don’t want to hold hands with just anyone! ? I didn’t always appreciate my parents enough, next time will be different. This period has given me time to reflect on my own shortcomings as a partner, and I feel confident I can overcome them. I am, in some ways, more like my ex-s wanted me to be, but I still hate Michael Bolton! People would describe me as quiet, funny and a polymath. I am very creative in many different ways. I have often esoteric taste in music, travel, writers… I am skeptic but not a cynic. I dislike dogma and rhetoric of any kind. I do not follow any political ideology. I think men who try and have sex on a first date are extremely ignorant. I have been reading some women’s erotic literature recently to learn. I really want a monogamous relationship and I am willing to invest more in it, in some ways, than I did in the past. I have many unfulfilled aspirations.. I try to go through life creating as many win-win situations as possible. These relationships are far more likely to last. I offer the best me that ever was.

I'm a 60-year old single man. I work in computers in health data processing. My profile and education are in social sciences (psychology, anthropology). I'm more of a homebody but I'm also comfortable in different outdoor environments as much as I am in my own home. I value a healthy lifestyle: healthy food, regular exercise, nontoxic relationships. I don't drink and I don't smoke. I'm not into domination, fighting, destructive arguments, cheating. I prefer collaboration over competition. I value and believe in power of positive thinking. I believe firmly in the power of feeling and expressing gratitude to others along with being altruist, empathetic and compassionate. I love moments that offer beauty in art, people, nature, words and actions. As for hubbies, I enjoy watching TV series, hang out with friends and doing voluntary work. I don't think I'm better than the others - perhaps, I'm just different. Anyway, everybody is unique and this is the beauty of mankind I believe. To me, differences are not a source of fear, it is a precious occasion to evolve and become more mature and humble. I like intelligent conversations and discovering new things. I read every day about different topics such as psychology, history, politics, health and science. I value introspection, looking inward and not judging others. I also believe that passion is probably one of the most important dimensions of being human - without which we are left without those dreams and aspirations that keep us going. I also believe in the importance being aware and responsible about the fate of our world. Therefore, at times, critical thinking and even challenging authority is sometimes necessary and healthy. I definitely consider myself a social progressive and pro-environmental. Social justi Though I grew up in a Roman Catholic environment, I don’t have real practice of our main religion. However, my inner life is guided by strong moral and spiritual values. If you adhere to one of the traditional religions, I am more than open to it as I respect any form of religion that fits my values. One final note: my first language is French since I live in the French speaking part of Canada. I am open to learn other languages.
