@PUNKEY,
Thanks for your suggestions. Unfortunately, I am, I believe, what most would consider a "modern women" some might use the term "feminist." I just completed my MA in Visual Anthropology (documentarian) and am also physically fit. I hike, rock climb, weight train, bike along with a few other activities at lest five times a week.
I divorced my x-husband because I felt he was no longer right for me and have been single since (about 13 years). Up until just recently I believed that it was because I was afraid to reenter a relationship but in the last four weeks or so, I started feeling like it might be that I'm tired of not being myself. The only men I meet and feel like I can be myself with are gay.
