Divorced mother with one grown child. Loves to be outdoors and keep active. Watches little to no TV. Can be talkative as well as quiet. Can love the city as well as what the country has to offer. Can dress up as well as dress down. I love to travel and would hope to find someone who loves to travel as well. I have been told I have a sense of humor and I like the same in someone else. While I like to laugh, I can be serious when needed. I have pulled myself up from the boot strap : ) , and all the years of hard work paid off. I hope that someone respects the balance between independence and dependence. That is a hard one to strive for.

My first date depends on the particular interests I share with someone. I am not going to share all the same interests with the people here. It also depends on the time of year I meet them and what the season may offer. I am active, but not totally top of the line in terms of endurance level. I think emotional health is as important as physical health. I like to travel, day trips as well as evening. At the end of the day, who I go on a date with I should have as much fun with having coffee or doing an activity, because My first date I have developed an interest enough in just knowing you better, what we do comes second.
