Some randomness:

-I work in the DTES. My job is important to me.
-I love animals and won't eat them.
-I'm vegan most of the time, vegetarian sometimes. Bonus points if you don't eat meat. This isn't a deal beaker.
-I'm not religious at all and would prefer you aren't either.
-If you don't understand how someone can be a good person without being religious please move along.
-I'm eco-conscious.
-I have a cat named Pixie.
-You will never see me wearing a pair of giant hoop earrings.
-My parents are amazing and I come from a caring family.
-I have never smoked a cigarette and never plan to.
-I can be quirky.
-I tend to be a bit shy when I first meet someone and I am generally a calm person.
-I am very clean and organized but pretty easy going.
-The little things make me happy.
-Flaky people drive me nuts. Don't message me if you aren't reliable. We won't get along.
-I love rollerblading.
-I'm nice but not a pushover.
-I would probably cry if I got to hold a chimp or baby gorilla.

Whatever is going on at the time, work, being healthy, going somewhere new, trying not to think about everything so much....

You are a kind person who treats everyone with respect even when you think they may not deserve it; if you are direct and honest; if you know that humor and silliness go a long way; if you are considerate and open to talking about whatever comes up; if you are looking for the right person and not just someone to bide your time with; if you have your shit together; if you love animals; if you aren't allergic to cats or are willing to take allergy medication; if you don't eat meat that would be a bonus but it's not required; if you can fix my computer; if you know who you are but always open to changing what you think you know and believe; if you are as frustrated with dating sites as I am; if you know the difference between your and you're; if you like soccer, rollerblading, tennis, yoga or jogging; if you know why close talker, man hands, and "I was in the pool!" is funny; if you don't wear socks with sandals; if you can come up with a better message then "hey gorgeous."
