Welcome to Gaia! ::

I'm 18, almost 19 years old.
I live in northern Virginia. I can handle LDR's really well, but I'm prefer to meet someone on the east coast.
I just want to throw this out there- that if I find a relationship that actually goes somewhere meaningful, I am willing to travel to visit. I have done it before, I would do it all again.

I'm pansexual and more interested in who you are.
however, if you're not into "sharing" you're not for me. I am polyamorous, and I have a long term relationship with my boyfriend (5 years almost 6 now.)-- but I don't believe in having more than one of each. I am all about communication. So, I need someone willing to understand and talk to me (even if it's hard and we're freaking out on each other or something) about problems instead of locking up about it. I need consistency, I struggle with a pretty crippling mental illness (but now I'm on medication which helps me function clearly, so my relationships are obviously benefiting from this.)

I am androgynous, I seriously wish i was a man and the only reason I haven't pursued this is because of my boyfriend and the fact that I want to be okay with my body the way it is. But because of this I'm a total dude. I do dudely things, like wear boy clothes, smoke cigarettes, drink way too much for my own good and start screaming like a moron, etc. Okay maybe it's just ME. Anyway- I'm a little bit of an animal (in bed too, yep) but also in my daily life. I'm a total extrovert, I'm an Aquarius -- the two mixing is chaotic, can't you imagine?! I think I'm pretty damn lovable.

I'm not religious, just spiritually in-touch. To put it simply, I admire faith because many years of my life were spent only on surviving by faith alone. My religious outlook resembles those of native-americans most (souls of all things, interconnected world, etc.)

I have a dog (share him with my boyfriend), he is a 8 month old Aussie, blue merle. I love all animals. I'm a photographer and a writer. I like people with an open mind to music, because I like just about anything I listen to and I find it unbearably unattractive when people bash on music.. because it's idiotic to argue over preference. I'm a full time student at community college (photography, of course.) My ex is actually my best friend of 10 years and she lives on the west coast, just a testament that LDRs are no matter for me.

I don't really want to date anyone under 17. I just think that the level of experience would be too different, but you can still talk to me! I won't date anyone over 23, because if you're old enough to be my older sister it'll bother me for some reason. lol! I'm looking for someone around my age.

Required : A sense of humor.

I want a girl who's happy with who she is. Preferably an optimist. I want to fall in love, I'm not looking for a stand AT ALL. If you capture my heart you need to be prepared to be spoiled beyond belief. lol

Anyway, get to know me.
I'm also looking for friends. :]
