People say that I am:
|
|
I'm a little shy at first, but after I get over the initial "hump" in meeting someone, I'm pretty fun to be around. I like being silly and laughing 'till it hurts. I like getting and being close to people. I love intelligent discussion, especially about movies, books, politics or religion, but I'm not fanatical when it comes to either. I'm into some "dorky" things like comics, fantasy/ sci-fi, etc. but not obsessive about it. In other words, I have an active social and intelectual life outside those interests.
I write a lot of different things, but it tends to lean towards poetry. I'm currently working on a screenplay that I hope to start production on before the year is up. I read a lot of different things too.
I try to keep things as honest and genuine as I can in my words, actions, and even my appearance (I'm only human, though). I don't try to where what is trendy and "fashionable" unless I really do like it. I'll dress up for work, or when the mood strikes me, but more often than not, you'll find me ina t-shirt (most likely with something political, dorky, or some vague reference) and jeans.
Once I get to know you, I speak my mind, and I can get pretty oppinionated, and sometimes a bit radical (with my politics especially). I consider myself a romantic realist (or maybe a moderate radical). I can be pretty idealistic, but it's not without reason or practicality. I know we live in the real world, and not in a theoretical utopia. But, as long as your beliefs are deeply held, and you can back them up with a measure of intelligence, I will respect that no matter how much I disagree.

Things that have bothered me:
|
|
When people don't allow you to be human and make mistakes. Hypocracy. People who are controlling. Selfishness.
|
|
I am looking for:
|
|
Any of the qualities from the similar question below.
I also like unconventional beauty. The stereotypical good looks are nice, but I want something a little more interesting. I like a girl with some substance.
I'm looking for someone with similar interests, but not necessarily exactly like mine (what's the fun in getting to know someone if there are no suprises!) Hell, even if they're completely different from mine, I love to have my views challenged, and sometimes changed.

I am looking for a personality like:
|
|
Someone who is open, honest, and accepting. Someone who likes to talk, but can also listen. Someone who gets excited and maybe a little geeky about the things they love, and love to share them with others. Someone who loves to laugh, even at themselves sometimes. Someone who isn't afraid to share their problems and listen to others'.
|
|
Are you willing to compromise in difficult times and situations?
|
|
It really depends on the situation, and what I'm compromising. But yes, most of the time I look for adequate resolution for everyone involved. I'm eager to please, but I'm not a door mat.
|
|
Willingness to meet others from boM:
|
|
I've never met anyone off the internet before, and I'm a little aprehensive about it, but I'm very willing to give it a try. Since I'm not in school anymore, I'm not really all that into the club/ bar scene, and I'd never want to start an office romance, I don't know how else I am going to meet new people. So, I thought this would be worth a shot.
|
|
Are you ready to start from scratch?
|
|
I'm comming off a long and serious relationship that went bad really fast. It really took me by suprise. But, I'm starting to put her behind me. I'm living in a new place, have a new job, and I'm looking to meet new people. Start a new kind of life.

My Wish List Includes:
|
|
One of the things I would love to do is take a good friend and travel accross Europe or the U.S. with only a preliminary schedule; fly by the seat of our pants and go where our fancy takes us. But, I'm really scared to. I feel like I'm pretty laid back, but that sort of uncertainty terrifies me.
I'd also love to travel to Tibet, India, Haiti and Canada.
