Biggest date fear: Silence

I love it when my date is invested, opens the door, asks questions, looks me in the eyes, compliments me, smiles, laughs, holds my hand.

I hate it when my date looks at his phone the whole time, is absent mentally, is too handsy (at first), eats less than me, is rude to other people.

What is the most outrageous thing you've ever done? I had to be a pirate watcher from midnight to 4am in the Red Sea on my last ship. (Yes, you read that correct...actual pirates, not Captain Hook.)

Who is your favorite actor? Rachel McAdams -- she's brilliant while being adorable at the same time. Perfect balance.

What's the most romantic present you have ever received? A handpicked flower from his walk to pick me up. Something about a man twirling a flower in his fingers...so sweet and thoughtful.

What does being married mean to you? Two souls growing independently and intertwined at the same time. Unconditional love, trust, companionship and compassion.
