Relationship shopping list:
- Sense of humor. I make fun of everything, even my health scares. It's the only way I can handle the heavy stuff.
- Big & strong. (Seriously, I am less than evolved: I can't date the scrawny dudes. I need someone who can chuck me over a shoulder & haul me off to bed).
- Have a life (I have my own life, and I don't need someone in my face every minute of every day. We should be close, but not co-dependent. I don't want to be your life).
- Be smart. I need you to challenge me, to argue when I'm wrong, and to make me think.
- Be caring I know I'm kind of a badass, and I have an attitude, but I need to be taken care of, too. I don't need you to pay for stuff, or to baby me, but I need a partner to shore me up when things get rough.
In exchange, I will: feed you, give backrubs, be indignant on your behalf when necessary, make you laugh a lot, smile most of the time, give you space to be with the boys, respect you, and have lots of sex.
If you know anyone who fits these descriptors and wants what I have to offer, help a sister out, k?

Also, okcupid is definitely the suck. Plus I've been single for almost two years now, so take my advice with a grain of salt.
Don't tell anyone this, but sometimes I feel that way about my ex. HOWEVER, I usually feel that way when I am at my utmost loneliest, or when I am a long time between love interests. It is the fall back and the memories of the good times, combining with that little bit of emptiness. It is a bad cocktail. Like a Surfer on Acid, or Liquid Cocaine, or something. As an extension of all this, word up on the previous response and try and stay single for a while. I was trying my damnedest when something awesome fell into my lap. To the point that I feel like I still feel like I needed a little more time to enjoy who I was without a someone.
My friend Chris kind of fits that description. Too bad he is dating a high-maintenance, overly made-up slut who has already cheated on him and dicked him over a lot. Oh well, he has an annoying voice (I love him to death, but it is true!) and that probably would have caused you to bail anyway.
