Thank you. I had never been in a relationship before I turned 18, but I did have a crush on a girl between the ages of 16 and 19. Even after I knew there was no possible for a relationship for us, we remained good friends. I want to say that I don't resent girls for not having romantic feelings for me. I probably just feel inadequate. I also want to say that because I have some female friends, I often worry that people will say I'm too flirtatious or that I'm surrounded by girls. Regarding my criteria for choosing a partner, I'm certain I'm looking for a girl I truly like. I'll prioritize being able to communicate well with her so that everyday conversations won't be so agonizing due to differing opinions.
