Clean and Sober Good Man I am seeking a fresh start after 16 years of marriage. I have been sober for almost 11 months. I am picking myself up, dusting off and putting the pieces back together. I have begun work towards a masters degree in chemical dependency counseling. I work at an alcohol/drug rehabilitation center. I am kind, caring, loyal and enjoy taking care of a woman who appreciates my attention. I am a people person: have never met a stranger. I love conversation and getting to know all facets of a person. I love to know "what makes a person tick". I enjoy all kinds of music, movies, and sporting events. I love animals and kids. I am tired of being the "good friend" who provides a shoulder to cry on, who listens to women complain about the jerks they are dating, only to watch them return to the same poor treatment. I am a gentleman: raised w/manners and social graces. I am a 20 year Air Force veteran. I don't have rugged good looks. What I do have is a good, genuine, honest heart.

I am looking for a woman who appreciates me and how I treat them. Looks and size aren't terribly important. Honesty, kindness, and NO drama are important. I need a woman who wants to be treated like a lady, but w/a wild streak! No alcohol, drugs or cigarettes. I love to converse about all subjects: world events, pop culture, books, movies, food, and family.
