About Me
Vital Stats: Our subject is a 40-year old white male middle school science teacher and debate coach, of questionable heritage, and the divorced father of a 12-year old son. He resides in a tidy little 1300 square foot tri-level home filled with plants, dogs, and random kids who just sort of show up to hang out. He has a goofy crooked grin and no gray in his brown hair (yet). He is 5 foot 10 inches tall and weighs 170 pounds on a good day and 175 on a bad day. I am a recovering alcoholic and took my last drink on November 30th 1989. I have been activly involved with a 12 step program since that time. It saved my life.

Well i decided Im done with Nate. i cant take anymore. i started the paperwork for the divorce. Im so proud of myself for making that step. I started nursing administration classes with the university of phoenix. I decided to go back to school. He was always holding me back and I decided that i need to do this. It makes me feel good knowing what my full potential is without him putting me down all the time. So.... Nobody new in my life. I did have an encounter (lol) with a old boyfriend from school but it was just a "I know I still have it and am a attractive woman kind of thing" you know what I mean. It didnt last and it was a one time thing. lol other than that, nothing else is new. Whats going on with you? tell all.......

Close Breakups & Divorce
My 20 year marriage ended. It was the most painful experience of my life...but I have moved on. While I will always love my ex, I can't be her husband. I forgive her. I like my life now a lot and just sort of go along taking it all one thing at a time I guess.
