Favorite Thing About Your SO: FI has such a servant and caring heart. He will go out of his way to make everyone else happy. His exterior can come across as a typical hardworking, stern man but he can be one of the sweetest people you would ever meet. He takes such good care of me and is always willing to help out my family and will go out of his way to do so.
Least Favorite Thing About Your SO: He hates confrontation. Which seems fine. Except instead of saying when something bothers him he just lets it bottle up until he just loses it. We have worked on that in our relationship but he still has trouble in it with his family.
Describe Your Personality: I am very out going. I have never met a stranger and I love talking to people. I am extremely organized and dependable. I am what people consider very high strung.

Tell Us Something Interesting About Yourself: I grew up on a farm and learned how to work in the garden and with the livestock. I think by spending my summers harvesting the garden rather than going to summer camp helped develop my strong sense of work ethic.
