I was married for 17 years and while there were moments I could wish for independence, I really liked being part of a team. I've been separated/divorced now for 4 years and I enjoy my freedom, but I'm a romantic at heart and still hope for love and a lasting relationship. At the end of the day, the kids will find their own lives and leave home, and I would like to know that there is someone out there who looks forward to my phone call, wants to hear my voice, is interested in how my day went and in return,knows that I am there for him.
