I want a guy who takes charge, but lets me have my say once in a while. A good relationship is all about balance and chemistry.

You and I both know there's got to be some greater storyline for you than 'girl gets heart broken, was sad forever'. I think a nice one would be 'girl gets heart broken, was sad for a while but in her heartbreak she found freedom, friends, and the ability to look back and laugh at all she'd learned. She now lives her life on her own terms and still has fantastic hair.'

When you say 'control freak' and 'OCD' and 'organized,' that suggests someone who's cold in nature, and I'm just not. Like, I'm really open when it comes to letting people in. But I just like my house to be neat, and I don't like to make big messes that would hurt people.

I never want to change so much that people can't recognize me.

I just want to spend the rest of my life with someone who makes me smile, laugh, feel special, and supports me.

You pay for good days by then having bad days. You pay for joy with pain.

But then you make eye contact with someone across the room and it clicks and you’re right there in love again.
