1.What are some things that make you really happy
Beauty in all its forms, well-made artifacts, thoughtfulness, repose in solitude (with an engaging book), being of service, not feeling ashamed, transfiguration through art, breakthroughs in my own understanding, the rush of power and vitality i get when i'm dancing, or singing, or simply reading a poem or listening to music, Earl Grey tea, food and drink with floral flavours...I could go on (and my initial response was 'nothing'!!)
2.What??s your favorite color
The point on the spectrum where purple meets blue - 'indigo' to me, but that word can refer to quite a range of bluey shades...
3.What??s your favorite food
Um, maybe dark chocolate with violet flowers, or violet cremes... But those are luxurious items. For everyday, probably avocado with black pepper.
4.What??s your favorite dessert
See above - also lemon sorbet

6.What are some of your favorite movies
Blue is the Warmest Colour; Under the Skin (with Samantha Morton); Dancer in the Dark; Il Deserto Rosso...

14.What do you do for fun
read! And wander, potter, seek a shiny penny
15.Do you like traveling
I like the experience of otherness, but I usually get very anxious in the time between having made a plan and actually having to carry it out - left to my own devices, I would probably cancel all travel plans! I need to feel physically safe, very much, but other ide

This poor guy. He asks to sit on some chic's lap and she ridicules him and he can't talk to girls anymore. He comes here for help and asks what he should do and we give it to him worse. He's gonna be afraid to ask anyone anything. Of course the kinds of questions being asked...not asking might be better.
