I am in the process of getting a divorce (ETA November), on good terms, after 15 years of marriage. I have two wonderful boys, ages 11 and 9 who are with me every other week. I am looking for a man who balances maturity with making me laugh and who enjoys playing sports. I'd love a guy who will encourage and respect my individuality, who will also be a source of encouragement or protection if the situation calls for it.

A few of my strengths are that I am enthusiastic and energetic, and really serious about my commitments. I'm fair and I try to do the right thing, and I also expect that from my family and friends. I am not a high maintenance person but I do appreciate time spent together. I am looking for someone who is interested in traveling, trying new foods and having fun. My short list of goals includes climbing Pikes Peak and learning another language, probably Spanish.

In my opinion the most important characteristics in a man would be strong ethics, kind, supportive and smart. I want to be challenged and motivated in a relationship, where we bring out the best in each other.

I would love to go for a long hike, share a drink or anything where we can talk and get to know each other.
