I'm a fairly creative person, a writer, a teacher, and an altogether nice person. Yes, I'm sarcastic and a little cynical but I'm actually pretty in love with the world around me. I'm ecstatic teaching children and laugh at least twice each day. Music and movies are a part of my life to such an extent that where some men memorize sports stats, I memorize band members and directors. I enjoy going out (especially to the beach and to coffee houses) but I'm much more comfortable kicking back at home, watching a movie or talking (or kissing) and I'm looking for someone who enjoys the same. My favorite genre of film is Horror but I will watch pretty much anything. Also, I read constantly (books are scattered about my apartment) and never go anywhere without a book in hand. Do I sound like a geek yet? :)

First of all, I'm attracted to shorter girls (between 5'0" and 5'5") and prefer petite girls. As much as that makes me seem shallow, I just want to be up front about that. I've dated all kinds of girls and size and looks have never kept me from liking someone but I know what I'm most attracted to and that's it. I look for "cute" and "pretty" over "hot" and "sexy" any day. I think cute and pretty come through in a gal's personality much more than the other two. I'd like to date someone who LOVES kids. It would be nice to date someone who likes to read fiction and is well-read themselves. As for religion, I'm borderline anti-organized religion. I have a tremendous amount of faith and though it's cliche now, I am very spiritual. However, organized religion is something I have some pretty big problems with and though I respect different opinions, I'm more inclined to date someone who agrees on that one with me. What else am I looking for in a girl I date? Well, that changes from person to person because no two people are the same. We'll just have to see if we click, won't we?
