I Would Describe Myself As

I'm a long-time divorced, independent person with two adult children and a happy, awesome new grandson. I work in a job I love, as a clinical social worker/adult therapist. It's really a vocation, not just a job. I have good, close friends and am by nature a loyal and dependable friend. My interests are many and varied;there aren't too many things I wouldn't be interested in learning more about. I love reading, writing and am in three book groups but I also love the natural world and being physically active.

I enjoy travel and wish I could do more of it, especially with a partner who is flexible and not "high maintenance". It doesn't have to be a big trip for me to get excited. I enjoy exploring areas nearby as well as afar as long as I can learn something and experience something new or revisit a place I've loved. I lived in England for a few months during college and would love to have a chance to live in another country again. One of my regrets is that I didn't join the Peace Corps after college and I'd still like to have some other kind of immersion experience in another culture.

I can't quite figure out how I got to be 62 because I feel young and I think and hope I have lots of life ahead. My sense of humor is good though more on the subtle than raucous side. I love to laugh and enjoy time with others and I also have a need for quiet,contemplative time.

I'm comfortable on my own and have a full, satisfying, interesting life. However, I'm ready to have another person in my life, to perhaps find a new relationship with a man in which we can both flourish.

Thank you for reading my thoughts.
