Hi, I am 42, divorced and have 2 boys, ages 13 and 17 that live with me most of the time. I am looking for a relationship with an unmarried, intelligent, mature, patient, and kind man. I think friendship is the most important part of the relationship and if anything more is meant to happen, then it will. Also, unless I am in an exclusive relationship, I will continue dating without any restrictions. I am very honest, and down to earth which are two qualities I am looking for.I enjoy being active outside, hiking, boating etc. I also enjoy wine tasting, restaurants, movies, and books. I am always up for an adventure and it never ceases to amaze me how many people forget the journey and focus only on the destination. I work about 50hrs a week, therefore I am very busy, but would like to enjoy what free time I have with a male friend. If that sounds like you and you are thoughtful, kind, compassionate, and ready to have fun let me know:)

My main priority in my life is of course my children. I am a firm believer that every age is a critical age for children, with ages 0-5 years being the ones that predetermine their outlook on life. I am the main parent in charge and am determined for them both to have a very happy childhood! I do though have time to go out though, which is why I'm on this site.

having fun and trying to enjoy the journey!! I think that is so much more important than the destination. Also, life is too short to ever look back and we can learn something new from every person we touch. I always try to carry over the lesson learned from the last and hope you can do the same. I am a very giving person and try to help others as much as I can and prefer a more unselfish person as well.

The first thing people notice about me hopefully is my personality. I am a firm believer in positive reinforcement and love to make people laugh. I am very much a people person and believe that every person in this world has something positive to offer.

My favorite books have to do with self improvement, vegetarianism, feng shui, and exercise. My favorite movie is Sweet Home Alabama, The Stepford Wives, and Fifty First Dates. I love all types of music, but even at 42, lol,I still love house music, David Guetta, Alexandra Stan, and ..a glass of chardonnay, ..and Katy Perry aka Katy Hudson. Older favorites Nine inch nails and Nickelback. I also enjoy going to shows uptown with South Pacific, Wicked, Chicago, and Phantom of the Opera being my favorites.

The six things I could never do without would be my health, my boys, Gold's Gym, money, my heels, mascara, and the ability to break rules and actually get away with it :)

I have been thinking about all of the changes I have gone through lately. I also have been going to the gym a lot as it's always that time of the year for me. I do not need a gym buddy, but am always eager to learn more, as I already have one and you should too. It really works!!

On a typical Friday night I am usually out with Kendall Jackson or at home with my two sons.

The most private thing I am willing to admit is absolutely nothing! I have nothing to hide per public, so you can find me on facebook and twitter.

You like chemistry but are just as concerned about personality. You are responsible, believe in a healthy lifestyle, and you like to have fun. Also, I am not here to do charity work, I'm visual just like you, so if you are not at least 6' and thin to athletic shape, please don't waste either of our time. I'm nice, but 100% honest and expect the same from you.
