  for about four years i've been telling people i hate sour cream. one time i sent back nachos because of this. i started saying this because a friend i admire hates sour cream. i told him i hated it too so we could have a funny thing in common

  'i don't really know what i'm looking for right now'

  i'm looking for a two to five year relationship with a man similar enough to me so we feel like we have a special, secret kind of bond, but different enough so we have things to talk about. hopefully he has been, but is not currently severely depressed. an interest in writing, reading, literature, and/or existential philosophy is important, though i feel stupid saying that. doesn't have to be much taller than me, definitely not shorter or fatter. atheist or agnostic. likes to spend time apart. likes to go on car trips without destinations. wouldn't call himself an 'activist' or spend long amounts of time with people who call themselves 'activists.' probably doesn't like dancing, bars, or sports. quiet but not boring. laughs easily. doesn't take me or him or life in general seriously, yet has a capacity to earnestly experience emotions, and is aware of this paradox. average sex drive. gives compliments. dark hair is good. would probably not like that i have written all these things about what i want him to be like, but would also understand and tease me about it later. eventually i'd like to get an apartment together

  'i don't want to have kids'

  pretty sure i do, even though i don't really like or understand them. seems too lonely not to have them
