39M4F looking for my match in the GTA.
39M canadian born chinese, no accents, english first, conversational fluent cantonese 2nd, hakka 3rd. Raised in downtown Toronto Cabbage town area.
I’ll start this with a little about me, then what it’s likely going to be like to date me followed by what i hope to find in a girlfriend and eventually a life partner.
I’m divorced (2019) after a 13 year monogamous relationship and spent 4 years after learning to heal my wounds and grow from my faults. After which I consciously acknowledge that I’m emotionally ready and available to give my heart out again and potentially have it shattered again. I’ve had another serious relationship after and few not serious.
Nothing ventured, nothing gained, I can’t hope to build anything meaningful with anyone if I’m afraid of getting hurt.
Me:
I’m kind, generous and set healthy boundaries (imo)
I’m a commercial electrician, competent by most standards’.
I am a morning person and enjoy hiking around all the various trails the GTA has to offer.
I am spontaneous and will google up nearby trails (easy to moderate), same for lunch or dinner afterwards - whatever fits the mood or my date. I’m more active than sedentary though i do enjoy spending the odd day doing nothing but light gaming, videos games or board or Table top.
Secure attachment and a great communicator. I 100% get that nobody is a mind reader but sometimes some people just get you and those people are rare and fortunate. For those of us mere mortals, verbal communication is essential and slightly more is better than slightly less.
I’m open to children and not required. I don’t have any of my own.
Dating:
I have no qualms with sharing my food, and if you’re uncertain about what you’ll like, you can absolutely order both dishes and take the one you prefer more - provided i can tolerate the spiciness of the other dish.
I like more simple dates than overly complicated ones. Leisurely pace over min/maxing our time/budgets.
My availability is about 1 day every other week to start, and I’m a heavy texter - my job permits lots of texting =)
suffice it to say, I want to and enjoy spoiling my partner. Happy wife happy life is kinda true, needs a little tweaking but it’s a pretty good saying to get my drift.
With the right girl, banter comes naturally. As does mild sarcasm and general humour.
I like to browse recipes on youtube and cook accordingly, singing all the while is better.
Prospective woman:
Someone who is looking for a serious long term relationship, free of mind games and a mix of sedentary and active lifestyle. Not much in either extreme.
Kind hearted and generous
somewhat logical thinker, I can’t understand a woman who’s 100% emotional and ignores logic and reason.
someone who will want me for me. We’ll grow and adapt to each other as we age.
Young at heart, forever learning.
At the end of the day, we all have flaws, if I sound like someone you’d like to meet, send me a chat or DM and we’ll set something up. First meeting in a public place, mall or park. Constructive criticisms are welcome.
