A little bit about me.

I’ve been through more in my 42 years than I ever imagined I would. I’ve struggled with drugs and alcohol since I was 17, experienced homelessness, divorce, loss of family and friends, and spent years battling depression, anxiety, psychosis, and the challenges that come with mental illness. I’ve been hospitalized, gone through treatment, and lived through some incredibly dark periods where simply making it through the day felt like an accomplishment.
I’ve also experienced the heartbreak of being separated from my children and losing relationships that meant everything to me. Life has taken me places I never expected to go, and I’ve had to rebuild myself more than once.
But I’m still here.
I’m in recovery, continuing to work on myself, and trying to create a life I can genuinely be proud of. My past has shaped me, but it doesn’t define who I am or where I’m going. I’ve learned that real strength isn’t about never falling—it’s about finding the courage to keep getting back up.
At this point in my life, I’m looking for more than just a relationship. I’d love to meet a good woman who is kind, genuine, loyal, open-minded, and willing to get to know the person behind the past. Someone I can laugh with, talk about everything and nothing with, be weird and goofy around, and eventually build something real with.
I’m not looking for someone to fix me. I’m looking for someone to walk beside me while we both continue becoming better versions of ourselves. I want love, companionship, peace, purpose, and a fresh start—and I’m finally beginning to believe that I deserve those things too.
