Hey, crypto zoology is one of my special interests and I will only date people who share my special interests. That's the ONLY thing I look for in a future partner.
I would have to say a bar. Intoxicated people don't always make the best decisions. |

| I lived in a rural area all of my life. I never was allowed to learn how to drive or get a job. My life was like lockdown before lockdown was even a thing. Lockdown changed nothing for me. |

| My dad went to a Catholic school but said if you did anything the nuns did not approve of, they would hit you with a ruler.

It was like I was suffocating if... |

He could still be loud, messy and unpredictable. |

| Yes all the time when it came to math. To my Honor's Student Valedictorian brother, I didn't have dyscalculia, I just didn't "try hard enough". I didn't speak to him for MONTHS after he said that. |
