I’m looking for someone kind, understanding, and funny. A person who shares some interests we can enjoy together and who has their own fun, new things they can introduce me to. I’d love to make friends and potentially find a serious relationship along the way. Mostly, I want the same thing anyone else here wants — to meet someone really great.

I am quite a shy person, which is what most people tend to notice about me in person. I’m very quiet and I tend to keep to myself until I’m comfortable around someone. The curse of being an only child who had no brothers and sisters to socialize with, I suppose! Once the shyness has faded, I love to laugh. I love talking about things that interest me, things I’ve recently read about or learned, or I just love to be silly so someone else will get a kick out of it.

I have an Associate of the Arts degree, which doesn’t do me much good and leaves me still working in retail, but I got to take a whole bunch of sociology, psychology, history, etc. classes to earn it and I found them all fascinating. I’m the kind of person who loves learning on my own. Just thinking up a random subject and reading what I can is fun for me. I could get lost forever on wikipedia, I swear.

Beyond that, I love movies and television and video games. Fictional media/entertainment in general is a whole lot of fun for me. I love watching it, understanding it, and figuring out what the writers are trying to do. I actually got to attend San Diego Comic Con for the first time in 2014 with a friend of mine. We got to see all sorts of television show panels and interviews, as well the giant exhibit hall full of wonderfully geeky things. I felt like I was home! My biggest dream in the world would be writing for television some day, but I just haven’t gotten around to going back to college for that just yet.

What else? I love board games, but I don’t get a chance to play them enough. I enjoy baking things when I get the chance, especially sweets. Cookies, brownies, cakes — all that yummy stuff. I’d love to learn more and get into making more things from scratch.
