See this is exactly why I hate having to describe myself. So basically I need to exclude the details about being okay being alone? What about the kiddo thing. That is one that I am very serious about. My kids are too darned old and even though they say they don't care if I date, I know for a fact they will never look to another man in a fatherly way again. They have been burned too badly by not only their bio dad but my last bf too.
So how about this revision:
I find this part the most intimidating when describing ourselves, our wants and desires. I am a divorced mother with a 14 & 15 yr. old home full time. I am not one of those people that says that "My kids are my life above anyone and anything else" but I am a good mother who is frequently busy attending to their needs.
Years ago I would have stated all the ins and outs that I would want in a man but at this point just having a pulse is a good start. Other than a pulse, a job and your own place to live without your parents would be great as well as a good sense of humor.
I am currently in College Full Time but I completely support myself and am quite self sufficient. I have a great sense of humor, I love most types of music and would be considered a quite social and somewhat talkative person.
I am 43 years old. I would consider myself average in the looks department but I do clean up well. I am by no means a Skinny Minnie but I don't take up two seats anywhere.
I really have no desire to have long walks on the beach or spend hours hiking and enjoying the birds. I am a realist and I am pretty much a straight up person. I just want to live each day as it comes.
What I look for in you is a good temperament, the ability to take care of yourself and your responsibilities. I do not wish to spend hours on end discussing the miserable details of your past relationships, I promise in return not to do the same.
I do not have any objection to you having kids, however I will not spend extended time with your kids or have you spend time with mine unless we both have decided on pursuing a relationship beyond dating.
If you think any of the above might interest you give me a shout. Until then Happy New Year.
I actually just like the name Hank.
I did not lie and the magnificent man I met on the dating site didn't lie either. But I guess neither one of us had to lie because we are both so awesome. 
We just passed the seven month mark and we still like each other a whole lot.
