I feel I know a lot about relationships and how they tick. I was married for six years and have two children. I have lots of relationships previous to my marriage. I am currently in a great relationship with an awesome guy and we are really happy. What makes me tick? Loving my children, starting over after a failed marriage and now being a single mom. I feel that I am a strong woman and try to love life to it's fullest each and every day :D
