I've posted here a lot of times, but I usually just copy and paste the same message over and over again. That hasn't worked, so I'm gonna change it up this time.

Hi! I'm Laurentia, or Laurie for short!

Possible dealbreakers first:

• Most importantly, I'm trans, and pre-everything. I don't think I pass very well, but when I'm happy I think I'm sexy, and that has to count for something.
• I'm born and raised in Scotland, so if you're not from here and distance is an issue, then probably don't message me.
• I'm 23, and I'm really not comfortable dating someone not around my age, so I'd say probably don't message me if you're older than 27/28 and younger than 20.
• Admittedly, while I have graduated from uni, I'm currently unemployed. I am actively searching for work, but I haven't had any luck so far.

Now onto my own personal hangups:

• Please send me a picture of yourself alongside your message. Don't worry, I will send a picture of myself in return if you ask. It's just that I've fallen for people based on their personality before, and then it turns out that I'm not physically attracted to them when they send a picture, and I'd like to avoid breaking someone's heart after we get attached to each other. If you're not comfortable with that, that's obviously ok, but I'll probably not respond to your message, and I apologise for that.
• I'm not very comfortable with sexting/sexual messages. It makes me uncomfortable and I'd prefer to avoid it unless it's necessary.

Ok now that those are out of the way, let's get to me.

I consider myself to be a bit of a nerd. I love playing video games (especially Pokémon), I read comics, and I love to talk about those sorts of subjects. I graduated university for filmmaking, and I'm an avid watcher of films and tv. I've also been playing some DnD lately too, and I'd love to get more into that if you do too. I'm also big on food. I especially love macaroni cheese, it's my favourite food, and I'm a big fan of the controversial hawaiian pizza.

In terms of what I'm posting here looking for, I'm looking for a hopefully lifelong, strictly monogamous relationship with another woman. I'd prefer if you were in Scotland as well, but I'm definitely open to long distance stuff too. I very much do want children, so I'm looking for someone who shares that wish, and I would hope you're a dog person as well because I have a couple dogs myself and I hope to own more in the future.

That's about it I think. If you think we'll get along, shoot me a message! I'm sure I'd love to get to know you.
