Q&a

[Shimmer]

Lets start a Q&A thread.
We'll just ask questions, and the ones we can (or want to) answer we'll quote them and keep asking. It's just a kind of roundtable style discussion, very organic, and no real rules other than the regular forum rules.

Just thought this would be a fun way for everyone to get to know each other a little better.

I'm sure you've been asked this before, probably even more than once on here haha ;p But is your red hair natural? Have you ever dyed it any other color?
I think it's super gorgeous. Love red hair

naturally, I am a redhead but not this color, this is definitely my hair amped up and then some.
I've been brown, black, and blond. I've got pics floating around somewhere with the blond, but I can't imagine being anything but a redhead now. If I ever change colors it'll be to a hershey brown similar to Adriana Lima's color.

Have you ever met someone on the street you've been instantly attracted to and acted on it, either by getting their number or flirting with them, and followed through with it?

Nope, I've never met anybody that I'd like to go past flirting with in the street in my city

If I did though, I for sure be getting their number and trying to get to know them. Seems very unlikely though.

What's your biggest fear?

Um. Failure. Or loss of control. Or allowing someone else to know my soul.

Nothing physical frightens me (except midgets and strap ons) but anything that requires bare emotion makes me very uncomfortable.


How do you know when to trust someone?

I don't think there's a "deciding factor" in when I trust someone. I'm generally pretty open to everyone, and I guess the more I talk to the person and see what type of person they actually are, I can trust them. Like once I can see under their skin, they can see under mine.


Do you believe in soul mates, or that there's one person above all who is your perfect match?

This is a pretty organic process so we'll just roll with the way we're going, just asking and answering the questions because honestly, I'm rolling along on almost 24 hrs up w/o rest and I'm probably incoherent.

I believe that a soul mate isn't restricted to one person, because I think that our souls are reflected in so many pieces in so many different people. Sometimes someone's a greater reflection than other people are. Those people, we call soul mates. I don't know if there's a Mr/Mrs Right, or if it's just Mr/Mrs RightNow. I don't know the answer to that question. I'd like to think that more than one person can love me completely during my life, and that I can love more than one person completely, though wholly differently, throughout the chapters of my life.


How do you define "dealbreakers" when it comes to relationships?

Omg I'm scared of midgets too :[ It's horrible, but they just freak me out.

I don't really know when to trust somebody fully, I've always got suspicions. I really hate it.

This is a fun idea and all, but I'm totally confused.
Who's question am I supposed to answer and who's supposed to answer my question.... which happens to be:

Do you love garlic cheese bread?

I think the biggest dealbreaker in a relationship would be if someone couldn't accept/respect my views. If we can't respect each other what do we have? D:

Love garlic
Love cheese
Love bread
Love them together

In a situation where you were pregnant and it was either your life, or the baby's life, which would you choose?

Hope that isn't too "deep" for the not deep thoughts board.

depends on how far along the pregnancy was and for what reason either one of us had to be sacrificed. Also it depends on the conditionss and blah blah blah.


Yeah, that was pretty deep.
I'm gonna look at myself in the mirror and cry for 10 minutes now.


Do you enjoy pulling pranks on people? What was the greatest prak you've ever pulled?

Pranks are fun but I don't really have the opportunity to pull any. I don't have any really good ones but I'll tell you the best one pulled on me. My Dad got my 2 sisters and I up, we got ready for school, were on our way, we get there, it's empty. It's Saturday. And April Fools Day. Thanks Dad!! I think we were mad lol.


What's the biggest amount of money you've spent on any ONE item. Not counting a car or house. What was it?

I have a big fear of little people too. One of my first memories is of a horirble graphic nighmare of a little person hiding under my porch and murdering my entire family. I was like 5 or 6 when i had it, and can remember crying in my bed all night. I know i'm twenty three now, and i should be over it, but it's one of thoe things i can't shake.

I'm also super paranoid. lol. Part of me really does think everyone is out to get me.


What do you think the single most improtant time(s)/moment/event of your life has been, when it comes to making you who you are today?

My childhood. Being disappointed / emotionally tortured by my parents at every phase of my adolescence. I decided I needed to control my own world and to do that I needed to be in charge of myself. At 16 I moved out and never went back nor asked for anything from them. I've done pretty damn well for myself and the motivation was never to be dependent on someone else like I was as a kid/teen on my parents.

What motivates you?

Competition. I don't like losing on any given situation.

I usually don't. But in relationships I do, and it's when I start getting nothing out of the relationship, but still end up feeling tired and drained from it.

What's your heritage, in terms of both ethnicity and nationality?

Irish Cherokee with the weensiest bit of French mixed in. I don't claim the French.

What do you find attractive in members of the same sex?
