Date women from United States / Alabama / Eclectic, 43 year old

Date someone special from Eclectic, United States. who am i??? i am a mother. i am a friend. maybe one day, i will be a partner again. my kids make me smile the most. my pets do too. i don't get out much and mingle. (i ramble on here, so bear with me) i am a loner mainly. i know that ain't a good thing when a person is trying to start over. i don't know really what i want in a man. i know i want him to be a real man. not some loser or abuser. i want someone who cares for me and mine. i want someone who will cherish me. i am a stay at home type of person. i know that isn't what a male wants to hear. i get out once in a while. just haven't had that someone to go out with. i want to be happy with someone. have conversations with someone. spend time with them and be wanted. i like the mountains, the ocean. i like old towns for exploring. museums are great also. i would love for someone to show me how to play pool, ride a horse, scuba dive... i would love to travel the appalachian trail, go to the smoky mountains for a few days, see alaska. i don't travel by plane well at all.... uuuggghhhhh!!!! i believe in GOD. He is the only one GOD. i am at a crossroad in my life. i was abandoned by my cheating husband. i hurt so much for so long because of that. i am learning to accept things and to move forward. i want a friend who may eventually become more. i enjoy gardening because home grow tomatoes are the only ones that taste good!! i'll think of more later to add.
