What I Am Looking For

I have been doing a lot of deep thinking about what it was that I am looking for in a significant other, and I thought I had nothing better to do right now while watching the Olympics. Yeah that was a pretty crazy first sentence.

Physically I am not picky at all when it comes to girls. I tend to look for great eyes, and a great smile. That is about it. I like girls with glasses too I guess but that is kind of an accessory on top of the physical appearance.

I like people who are comfortable with who they are. That goes both physically and in general. I want someone who isnt afraid to just be herself. Someone who can open up and not just hide behind a facade. I also want to find someone who I can fully be myself with. Not everyone gets all the different facets of my humor, or gets me in general. I can be a difficult person and I guess the right person would have to be tolerant of that. I can be argumentative, and I would like to find someone who would argue back. Not someone who will just sit back and take it and get beaten up because of that. I like back and forth whether its arguing or a battle of wits, I think that just comes from my dad's side of the family. I know its annoying to some people, but I think there is someone out there who would enjoy it as much as I do.

I would also like to find a girl who really just isn't too passive. I want to find a girl who doesn't leave every decision up to me. I find that annoying. Sure there are times where I will make gladly pick a place to go, or something to do, or a restaurant to eat at, but there are other times when I don't care and wouldnt mind her making the decision for me, or at least to have someone provide some input.

Communication is very important to me. I need someone who can talk, but also can listen. Sometimes I can be a big talker, but other times I won't have that much to say, so I need someone who will be a great counterpart to that. To go along with that of course I need to have some things in common with her because that would give us more to talk about, although i usually have lots of weird random things to say.

It can be difficult to get close to me because I can be a bit abrasive until you understand me more and then you just realize that I make fun of you because I like you. As immature as that is.

Specific traits I am looking for:
Intelligence that is on the same level as mine.
Compatible sense of humor, which means everything from sarcasm to dirty humor.
Kind, Caring, Considerate.
Not much of a partier, I really find that whole scene boring.
Someone who will introduce me to new things, and someone I can introduce new things to.

I am sure there are other things, but I can't thing of them at this time. I just needed to spill some of my thoughts to help clear my head.

I would just like to find someone I can have fun with. I would like to have someone to just be a dork with if you know what I mean. Have fun not necessarily doing anything specific and able to just enjoy it a lot anyway. Someone I can joke around with, someone I can cuddle with, someone I can do just about anything with. I guess I really just needed to think about this myself and figure out what I really wanted in another person. I am not really stressing about finding someone immediately or anything like that, I just had never really sat down and thought about this. When I did think about it I couldnt really stop thinking about it.

In other news, I have really been enjoying my job at the SBDC, and from the feedback I have been getting, I have been doing a good job too. That is always nice to hear. I really hope I get more hours there possibly starting next month and if not then, then starting in July. I know there is more work that I could be doing, but I just am not getting enough hours in which to do it.


PS. I need to stop saying epic. As my brother pointed out the more I say it the less significant the word is.

Thanks for reading my thoughts, so long for now.
