Mention at least 3 physical turn ons and turn offs: Okay, turn ons have to be smiles, butt (I have a fetish) and does voice count as a physical turn on? I have a thing for voices that just make me feel... safe. Turn offs aren't many. Short guys (as in shorter than me, which would be a challenge, considering I'm 5'2"), and that's seriously it. I'm not much for dissing appearances, as long as the guy is taller than me, we're good (now with girls it's different, I can date short girls).
Mention at least 3 Personality turn ons and turn offs: Onto the turn ons! Guys/girls that are confident, passionate (especially about what they do for a living) and open minded. Turns off, closed minded people (homophobics and religious freaks), overly social (I'm not very social, so that'd be a bad pairing) and dominating.
What are your strengths in a relationship? I'm very supportive no matter what, my partner is like my best friend and I won't turn my back on him/her, even if what he's doing is wrong (I might tell him it's wrong, but I won't leave him in the dirt for it).
What are your weaknesses in a relationship? I sort of live in my own little world sometimes so the people I've been with have had to learn (the hard way) to give me my space. It's not that I don't love them enough for them to live in it with me, but there are some things (like my writing) that I need to do alone and without interruption, so when I go into that mode, I cannot be interrupted.

What is your opinion of marriage? I don't really think it's necessary anymore. I mean, it's a nice gesture, but the real sanctity of it has been thrown down in the floor because of divorce. Don't get me wrong, I love divorce, why should you get stuck with someone you married and no longer love (or no longer loves you)? But that's the thing, marriage doesn't mean a thing if there is an exit, it might as well just be a very expensive relationship that requires a prenup or else you're screwed. Marriage these days is a chance and a sacrifice that you have to be very sure of before you make it, but how can we be sure? Nothing is for certain, so my opinion of marriage is... that it's not necessary, love can exist without it, just as marriage can exist without love, so why is it a neccesity?
Is sex more important than love? Why or why not? I don't think it's as important, but it could be an important part of a relationship. I mean, it's been said that during your youth, your partners are chosen (and relationships cultivated) by your sexual experiences and pleasure with the person (not always though, just on most occasions), but once you're both growing old together, the sex won't be quite the same (I don't care what the viagra bottle says, you're 80, give it up) so all you're left with is love, if there ever was any. So it's better to be in a relationship for love (and have the chance of having good sex) than to be in a relationship based on sex (because after a while, you WILL get old and the sex won't nurture a relationship forever).
Do you think beauty should affect love? I think the first impression of beauty can inspire the curiousity of love, or maybe I should say, attraction, but then if you get to know the person and, in spite of their looks, they turn out to be someone you'd never see yourself dating... well, then beauty tends to go down the drain. Beauty fades, personality sticks more than anything else, so beauty should inspire love, but not be based on it completely.
What is your idea of a perfect date? Somewhere we can talk. No going out to the movies because all you do there is watch someone else's life unfold. Maybe a walk somewhere, a picnic even, somewhere we can talk privately and just, get to know each other and enjoy each other's company. A quiet environment too, nothing crowded or loud, please.
Is it important to have things in common with the person you're in love with? Not really, that would be boring after a while, but it is nice to have some of the basic personality traits in common since some personality traits that differ could clash in such a way that you could be at each other's throats in seconds.

Who's your favorite couple in the book and why? Y'know, I've really been on the fence about this for DAYS, because I love Jared/Mel, the sort of commitment she had to him and the anger he expressed towards Wanda was only inspired because she had taken from him the girl he loved, the person he lost, I mean, do you imagine the guilt that he had to feel every time he saw her? I'd be mad too! But then there's Ian/Wanda, Ian who saw PAST the body and INTO who Wanda was, which is more than just romantic but corageous considering she represents a race that everyone hates and practically wants to kill. So, I seriously, cannot choose between those two. Don't make me, 'cause I won't.
Who's your least favorite couple and why? The Doc and Sharon. I'm sorry, but explain to me how someone as NICE as him ends up with Sharon. Fine, we don't know Sharon that well and thus don't have a lot of insight on who she is, but still, he is such a calm and sweet person and she's just... just... oi!
If your loved one was taken as a Host and your only way of being with him/her is by serving as a Host, would you take that choice or remain human? Why or Why not? Oh, I'd be tempted, I mean, if I was really in love and my life couldn't be life without him, I'd be tempted, but I couldn't do it. He wouldn't be the one touching me or talking to me, and even worse, if I took on a soul, I wouldn't be in control of my own actions, now would I? But... if I had nothing else to live for, as in, nowhere else to go (unlike Jared who had Jamie and the possibility of finding other people), I think I'd do it... Think being the code word.
Imagine yourself as Wanda, if you were to experience her conflict of emotions between Ian and Jared, how would you explain them and try to sort them out? Ah, well, her conflict of emotions is natural because the body she's inhabiting isn't her own and Melanie's mind is still so strong that she feels for herself *and* for Melanie. When Jared touches her, it's like Melanie's body is remembering and feeling everything it ever felt when Melanie was in it. Now with Ian it's a whole different thing because she's trying to associate what she knows of love (from Melanie's mind) which is hard considering who occupies Melanie's heart. I don't think Wanda loves Jared, not like Melanie loves him, she simply loves him because her body and mind literally belongs to him (because Mel's body and mind does), but what she felt for Ian was genuine because she built it from scratch, it didn't come from Mel, it came from her and she had to fight through Mel's emotions in order to find her own so she could realize that.
