• Significant Other's Age: 25
  
• What You Do: Transportation/shipping for a big name luxury retailer's online/catalog division.
  
• What SO Does: In a state of transition; working two part-time jobs and trying to get back on his feet after massive layoffs where we both used to work.
  
• State of Relationship: Dating; best friends getting closer everyday. We want to get married, but we are waiting until he is more financially stable and I get a vehicle. He is ready for me to move in but as an old-fashioned girl, I am waiting for a ring!
  
• How Long You've Been Together: 2 years in 2 days! 
  
• When You're Getting Married (if you're engaged): NEY, but I'd love to get married in the winter of 2012 (but also not in a rush!).
  
• Fur Babies: None together, but we're both kitty people and plan to get one together someday. ^.^
  
• Favorite Color: Purple! 
  
• Favorite Thing About Your SO: He makes me laugh insanely hard like an old friend, we have SO many inside jokes and brainfart moments we giggle about all the time. He's absolutely my best friend with how we can act goofy, make fun of each other and laugh until we cry. I've never had so much FUN with anyone I've previously dated!
  
• Least Favorite Thing About Your SO: He gets angry easily about small irritances from other people (ie road rage!).
  
• Hobbies/Activities: Digital scrapbooking, video games (SO & I play a MMORPG together), reading, going to concerts.
  
• Describe Your Personality: I am a very friendly and sweet person. I love doing little things to make people happy (I handmake cards for almost every holiday for everyone in my office) and I thrive on others' peace and joy. My life goal is to work for a non-profit or social services program. My life mission is to help others and make hard lives easier. I want to work for either a food bank, homeless/battered women's shelter or a local organization that works with homeless children. I grew up in poverty and my mom/brother/I were homeless for a spell and we frequented food banks/assistance programs, so now that I am out of that situation, I am dedicated to spending my life helping others. I love humanity.
  
• Snark Level (1 [low snark] - 10 [high snark]): 1--I really don't like being snarky at all. Life is too short to be so cynical and ugly. When I do feel a snarky moment coming on, I keep it inside because it's unfair to be critical and impatient in brand new situations (or with someone new) you haven't fully experienced yet. To me, being called snarky would be an insult.
  
• Tell Us Something Interesting About Yourself: I have an immensly vast taste in music. I learned how to read music and started singing competitively when I was 8. I taught myself how to play guitar when I was 17. Music from all different genres and time periods speaks to and envelops me. I like everything from classical to heavy metal to indie rock to dance pop.
