I'm not looking for someone to take care of me or to "fix" my problems, I can do that just fine on my own. I want someone who will be my partner. Someone to just enjoy everything life throws our way and make the most of it. I'm a single parent, the only parent. My son means the world to me, he is always my first priority. My future partner would have to love him as his own. We are a package deal :) I spent over 10 years on active duty with the US Coast Guard. I'm still a resere so one weekend a month I spend in Tampa. I try to live life with no regrets. Mistakes have been made but there is no point in dwelling on the past. I plan for the future but I don’t worry about it. I'm not sure about this whole online thing but after a lot of promting by friends I've decided to give it a try.
