I'm not the kind of person to jump into a relationship with a guy. I do a lot of figuring out about the person and his background, what he wants, and why he is interested in me.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
When I first meet a girl, I have some questions I go through if I'm interested in her. Like, if she's a good-looking girl, and I figure out right away that she doesn't read, that's a dealbreaker for me.
I have a lot of guy-like quintessential relationship qualities that I have had to work on.
I like dressing up for dates and dissecting a dinner conversation with a new guy to determine if he might be The One.
Relationships are hard, so you have to know what type of man you want by your side and what their values are, what is important in his life.
I've always been in serious relationships. I meet someone and date him for a long period. I don't sit there thinking, like, 'I wonder if I can seduce that guy.' I have other things in my mind.
I've always been interested in how the individual comes to know and accept him or herself, which I think has been hard for me.
It's important for a guy to know and understand me before he can even think about taking things to the next step.
When I'm getting to know someone, I look for someone who has passions that I respect, like his career. Someone who loves what he does is really attractive.
I'm finding that I tend to be one of those people who gets into very committed, long-term relationships, and then I really focus on that relationship and not so much myself.
Most of us make up our minds in the first three minutes of meeting someone whether there's a potential for a relationship.
