Sorry. I'm tired.

Survey 1, from Sis

1] Is there someone you like at the moment? Yes. And I miss her. :(

2] Have you ever given or been given roses? come to think of it, no

3] What is your all time favorite romance movie? The Princess Bride, or The Empire Strikes Back

4] How many times can you honestly say you've been in love? twice

5] Do you believe that everyone has a soul-mate? absolutely not

6] Do you think that you should become friends with someone first? before getting serious, yes

7] Have you ever had your heart broken? very much

8] What do you think about long-distance relationships? really really difficult

9] Your current thoughts on relationships? not a big fan of the casual just for fun relationships, and that your significant other should compliment (not complete) you. It's important to have separation, independent time and hobbies, mutual and separate friends, physical attraction, [at least some] shared interests, and at least mostly compatible views on the big stuff, physical attraction, with a healthy dose of understading, patience, and communication

10] Would you rather date someone five years older or five years younger? I've actually never dated older, so I'll go with that (and I don't know if I could put up with a 15 year old for more than a minute)

11] Have you ever seen a friend as more than a friend? *nod*

12] Do you believe the statement, "Once a cheater always a cheater.."? in the sense that once the trust is broken, it's hangin' out there- it takes serious character to take a person back after that, and I don't know if I could do it

13] How many kids do you want to have? I dunno

14] Do you usually fall for a wrong boy/girl or the right boy/girl? nope. I'm really picky and if it's not meant to be it doesn't really take off- the relationship kinda explodes on the runway

15] What is/are your favorite colors? blue, black, silver, maroon, yellow

16]. What are your views on marriage? the fact that my parents have divorced has really fucked up my view of adult relationships, and it scares me- that said, I am an idealist and would go for it if I thought it was right

17] Have you ever broken someone's heart? I think so? she doesn't talk to me anymore

18] Are you the one who makes the move or do you wait for them to? I used to be incredibly -painfully- geek shy, but I'm getting better! A lot of my hesitation comes from wanting to be an upstanding chivalrous nice guy...

19] Imagine you're 79 & your spouse just died, would you remarry? (assuming this is a lifetime marriage) I'd just wait for the statistical year or so before I kick the bucket, probably

20] Do you think remarriage is betrayal? divorce, kinda, but remarriage, not always

21] At what age did you start noticing the opposite sex? honestly, late middle school (seventh grade?)

22]What song do you want played as you walk down the aisle? that traditional "dun dun da dun...dun da dun dun..." or Queen's "Somebody To Love"

23] Are you gonna wait till you get married to lose your virginity? I would rather not

  2. My fault if it wasn't clear...my friend Eric races stock cars in an online league. He apparently wrecked (and took out his teammate) just before the end of the race. I thought he was in a real accident.

  3. Re: Survey 1, question 9: "Compliment" is when you tell someone their hair smells like coconuts. "Complement" is when things go well together.

    Two complimentary gentleman.
    Two complementary angles.

    (Also, free things are "complimentary," like WiFi in hotels or something.)

  4. Hahaha i just noticed this:

    "upstanding chivalrous nice guy..."

    I've given up of being that guy, it has my recent experience that feminism has killed chivalry. Give up, it will only get you slapped.
