'SEXY' is nice to hear, but a good love connection is better. I am playful, loving, very affectionate, cheeky, not into head games, conflict or addictions. Are you a 40ish-50ish guy looking 4 me?

This die-hard romantic is seeking her knight in slightly tarnished armour (I have great polishing skills ... hahaha!!!). You are loyal & dependable, somewhat flexible & easy-going, not afraid of commitment or monogamy & can give 'n take a little cheeky & sarcastic humour (never intended to offend of course). You are extremely affectionate, attentive & love snuggling & hand-holding as much as I do. You love to laugh & will miss me as much as I'll miss you when we're apart. You are my best friend & trusted confidante, are emotionally available, have time for a relationship & are willing to share your life & most importantly your heart with me.

I enjoy basic comforts but don't consider myself overly materialistic or high maintenance. I don't care if you drive a fancy vehicle or not but you should have reliable transportation. I prefer giving & receiving practical gifts over expensive trinkets. I enjoy fine dining on special occasions but prefer casual dining at a pub or cosy restaurant with good food, good music & good company. A stroll hand-in-hand in the park while sipping coffee or slurping ice cream cones would also be a great date. I am most comfortable in jeans, however, I enjoy getting dolled up occasionally, but watch out 'cause at the stroke of midnight, this l'il angel might just turn back into a l'il ...


My relationships have been long-term for the most part, including a 15 yr marriage which produced two wonderful boys, 20 & 24 years of age. I communicate openly, am expressive & will spontaneously kiss or hug you whenever a surge of affection hits & hope you are the same. I love touching, caressing, kissing, cuddling & can be intensely sensual & passionate WITH THE RIGHT PERSON. Let's start with friendship & see if it will lead to a magical, romantic adventure that will last a lifetime.

I'm generally attracted to guys who are 5'9" or taller, nice smile & eyes, with a smart-ass i.e. witty sense of humour, 'average' to 'a little extra' build & somewhat fit (I prefer a few love handles to skinny). You have daily showers, clean habits & no contagious diseases. You don't do drugs (smoking weed IS doing drugs) & are not into porn, strippers, etc. You are a non or light social drinker, are respectful to others & have decent manners (hacking up mucous & spitting on streets or out of car windows is one of my pet peeves). You have an accurate, current photo posted, are the stated age & are financially stable (I'm not looking for a sugar daddy). Bonus if you live close to the Tricities or Maple Ridge, maybe even New West or Burnaby.

My profile pics are fairly recent. I will reply to all intelligent emails that show that you've taken the time to read my profile. I only date one guy at a time & don't continue browsing profiles of other guys or chatting with potential replacements during this time & hope you have the same values. If you're old enough to be my father or young enough to be my child, I will not date you nor am I interested in sex chatting with you. I'm a practicing Christian but am not a preachy bible thumper. Most on my favourites list are platonic friends of both sexes, mostly female, & no, I don't swing that way.


Would love to hear from you ... I don't bite ... umm ... err ... can I take that back? Hahaha!
I wrote the poem below earlier last year, a reflection of who I am & what I'm seeking.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I AIN’T BARBIE

I ain’t Barbie, blonde and tall
I ain’t gorgeous, I ain’t small
Ain’t got Ritchie Riches money
and sometimes I ain’t that funny
Ain’t got mountain biking skills;
cringe in fear when facing hills
Worldly traveller I am not
Heck I don’t even own a yacht
but I will walk the earth with you
from Mexico to Timbuktu,
canoe romantic trails through reeds,
be there for you when you need,
discover treasures in the sand
on beaches in a foreign land,
explore dark caves and ruins of old,
maybe even pan for gold.
I will leap through rings of fire
for you are my heart’s desire,
to reach your joy and happiness,
morsels of your tenderness.
You make me tingle with delight.
You titillate me with your might.
In your arms I yearn to be,
spoiled to death with ecstasy.
When I curl up in your arms,
I feel the magic, feel the charm.
You make me laugh like no one can;
my silly knight, Sir Peter Pan.
I am but a simple girl
who wears no diamonds, frills nor pearls.
I give you all I have to hold,
my hand, my love, my heart, my whole.

After a chat or two via email, if we both feel a mutual connection then let's move it to the phone. If we can make each other laugh & have a hard time saying goodbye, then let's meet. I'm pretty flexible & easy-going & am sure we can compromise on something. My belief is that who I'm with is more important than what we do or where we go. Maybe we can climb a tree or monkey bars at a playground, play Scrabble over coffee (if you win there may be no second date though ... hahaha!). Or we can hit up McDonald's for a romantic meal, dance to a live band over a couple of drinks, walkies, talkies, coffee, ice cream or a picnic at the park, go cycling or horse-back riding then massage each others butt cramps away (joking ... maybe ... ) ... the possibilities are endless.
