I am friendly and outgoing and enjoy meeting new people and exploring new places. I also value quiet time to reflect and relax, which I would not mind sharing with someone special. My health is a priority to me and I try to practice a balanced lifestyle. I exercise and eat healthy. I also enjoy traveling as it expands my awareness of possibilities, opportunities and experiences outside my usual view. The arts are also of high interest to me. Going to hear live music, see a play or musical, a comedian, an art exhibition are all inspiring and fun for me. Hiking and being out in nature fill me with appreciation and peace, and are so much more enjoyable with someone else to share in the adventure. Spending time with my children is important to me and I can't imagine my life without them. Watching them become their own persons is facinating and challenging at times since they are in their teen years.
My career is one that brings me great satisfaction and meaning as I work within the helping professions. I work in a hospital which can be stressful at times, but very interesting as a I work with patients from all over the world and am learning about technical advances that are amazing in the brain sciences.
I am searching for someone to share life experiences and interests with. I am interested in having a relationship that has substance emotionally, intellectually, spiritually and , of course, has chemistry. I am not interested in a surface relationship that has no depth. I think a relationship should bring out the best in one another, and help each other grow to know our potential as individuals and as a couple. My ideal match would know himself well, be emotionally mature, stable and not be afraid to share his thoughts and feelings. He would have the time to build and have a relationship, be honest, caring, thoughtful, respectful, loyal, intelligent, kind, fun and place a high priority on a relationship. I have spent time and energy exploring myself and the parts I have played in relationships going well or not, and hope to find someone who has done the same. I've been divorce for 10 years now and with my children getting older and more independent, I am looking towards my future and would like to find someone special to spend my days with.
