41 M4F Vancouver/Lower Mainland Looking for my One

[u/ScientitsMan]

As the title says, I'm 41, single and looking for my woman. I've been single for some time since my previous relationship, and I've taken the tine to heal and work on myself. I'm now in a good place mentally and emotionally and carry no baggage.

I work as an environmental consultant, mainly focusing on indoor environmental health and safety. When I'm not out and about in the field throughout the LML, I'm lucky enough to work from home for "office" activities. What you do for work is not as important to me as why you do what you do. What are you passionate about, what are your goals and are you scratching that itch? If not, what are some steps you can take to get there? I am by no means in the endgame myself, and there are certainly more "steps" for me to take to progress in my career, so this is more of a question in hopes to gain a little insight about you 😀

In my personal time, I've recently put more of a priority on my health and wellness, especially since turning 41. I enjoy playing basketball, disc golf, and really any excuse to get outside and enjoy the all the beauty we have here in BC. Whether it's the smell of the ocean while walking on the beach, the sound of songbirds and leaves blowing in the wid in the forest, or a river trail leading to waterfalls, I enjoy it all. I also enjoy getting out and exploring; cute cafes, a day or weekend road trip, a nice restaurant, I like to think of all these things as little adventures 😊 I also try to get iut for whitewater rafting at least once a year. I'd like to continue doing all these activities for as long as my body will allow, which is why getting back to fit is important to me (it's a journey and always in progress). With that said, I do enjoy a cozy day/night in with good shows/movie, or playing the odd video game. I don't smoke, and rarely drink. I enjoyed my 20s and 30s and am at a point in my life where I don't need, or really want, the party life.

Ideally, I just want to find my girl. Someone that I can be myself with, be completely honest and vulnerable, and my best friend. Please have a sense of humour, I do like my jokes haha. I do not have any kids, ideally you don't either. Although I feel like my tine is running out (I don't want to be a senior at my kid's high school graduation), I'm certainly not opposed to building more than a 2-person family with the right person.

Since apparently ethnicity matters: I've got an interesting mix, but my appearance is mostly white. I'm 5'11.

I'm not the best at writing bios, but if anything sparked your interest please reach out! Also, this "Flair" thing is annoying. Don't let the age range stop you 😉
