  • How would you describe yourself?

    Your appearance? Your temperament? Your talents?

      Mentally: Type A, uber planner
      Emotionally: I come across as no nonsense but I'm anxious and perseverate about everything. Doing lots of research sort of soothes me.
      Physically: small, blonde, medium build. I'm like everyone's kid sister and people are always sure "they've met me somewhere." Yes because I look like every other small blonde person (seriously, no joke).
      Spiritually: Christian, but growing pretty weary with what that is perceived to mean in many circles
      Politically: Independent, leaning right.

        I'll go with her ^ organization format:

        Mentally: detail oriented, planner, analytical, pragmatic, prone to anxiety
        Emotionally: loving; adventurous, anxious, perfectionistic ETA--hate to share my emotions and personal business publicly. IRL I'm pretty closed mouth about emotions.
        Physically: small, blonde, very fair skinned.
        Spiritually: I joke that my religion is Liberal Buddhist Christian. Love is why we are here.
        Politically: slightly left of center. Too moderate for most liberals, too liberal for most conservatives. Appalled by the current state of politics and political discourse.

          [MENTION=792]houseelf[/MENTION], I feel like we could be sisters. Physically alike and so much more. Is that weird to say?

              Mentally: I like to know things. I thrive in context and love researching anything--job markets, vacations, weather, home values, Catholic doctrine, random history. I have a well-thought out long term plan in my head--I'm not always so hot at conveying that to everyone else.
              Emotionally: Empathetic, optimistic, oversharer, occasionally too intense, loyal, content, sometimes too judgmental, always feeling guilty about something.
              Physically: Brown hair, hazel eyes. Heavy, but slowly becoming more athletic--I will always have a large build. I look like a mom and I'm okay with that.
              Spiritually: Catholic. I used to say Conservative Catholic, but that means something socially I really am not. I follow the Church's teachings 100%. That puts me all over the place on the left/right spectrum. Additionally, my faith is more intellectual than emotional. I'm more concerned with how I'm supposed to live it out vs "the feelings" and the details of salvation. Does that make sense?
              Politically: Moderate.

                Ohh girl. We're gonna have some fun with our cultural exchange! My Southern Baptist heart is all about the feels of salvation... (and then of course living in light of that salvation).

                  I love researching everything to death. I believe that science and Judeo-Christianity dovetail beautifully, and recognize that there is mystery in both that I cannot know. I grew up in the south, but have lived on both coasts and it has opened my eyes to how amazing our country can be (diversity, culture, race, religious freedom, all the food).

                  Conservative church attendance for the majority of my life, but more politically/socially/religiously liberal now (as it's been hinted at, I too have a hard time fitting into a political/religious check-all-box).

                  I am tall, curvy, thick, and blond. 😅

                  Emotionally: get me a cave, and a phone to text with.

                    Mentally: I like to learn, ambitious, realistic bordering on pessimistic. I hate conflict.

                    Emotionally: I am very self-conscious. I can come across as intimidating and bitchy/aloof, in reality I can be slow to warm. I am easily down on myself, with shit self-esteem and have to work constantly on my issues with depression and anxiety. I'm very caring, and love fiercely.

                    Physically: I'm tall, big, overweight and pregnant (apple) shaped. I'm fair, brunette with blue eyes. I have a lot of moles.

                    Spiritually: I have none. I don't buy into anything spiritual, metaphysical or otherwise. I shun nearly all things "alternative." It makes me kinda ragey, in fact.

                    Politically: Hard far left.

                        [MENTION=1013]Vanquisher[/MENTION] I read pregnant and my teeth nearly fell out of my mouth until I kept reading. You're beautiful.

                          Thank you. I get asked when I'm due far too often. I don't have a uterus, so... LOL

                            I have to say I expected you to come off the way you always describe yourself "bitchy, aloof" and all I saw was a sweet, fun person.

                            It does seem like you think a lot. Maybe that's the face people interpret incorrectly.

                              I'm a type A control freak with a sarcastic sense of humor and a potty mouth to compliment it. Unfortunately my shyness is often mistaken for aloofness. Once someone takes the initiative, and I get out of my shell, they'll find I can be very friendly and fiercely loyal. Like many others here, I love to research things and find myself with a constant desire to learn new things. I am definitely an introvert and tend to be private, but those who know me know me VERY well.

                              Spiritually I would consider myself an agnostic leaning more and more closely to atheism. Politically, I land pretty far left on the spectrum.

                              Physically, I'm 5'3, thick and curvy with long dark brown hair and hazel eyes.
