So when I'm chopping something, let's say broccoli, I want to have the perfect bite of my bowl, my mill, my plate, whatever I'm eating, so I wanted it to be chopped in like the perfect amount that I can get all my ingredients into one four. So that's why I prefer certain chopping styles a certain amount of size. And you know, I think sometimes my friends think that they should be bigger, and I'm like, no, smaller is best.

I think it just comes natural that I like the a certain way. And I don't think it's just me. I think it's good for everyone.

It was kind of a first relationship, so I feel like those first times, you're navigating everything for the first time, and I just remember letting my jealousy get the best of me, having unnecessary fights, letting insecurity take over, and saying mean things sometimes. But now that I'm older and wiser and grew from that, I feel like I can better handle those situations.

One little question, are you looking forward to having children?

I am open to having children.

I am open to having children.

So that is a conversation that I would have with my partner because I can go either direction. If you want to do a surrogate, adopt children, or whatever you want to do. If they do not want, then see, I work with kids for all my life and you can never force them, like you can't force them to eat, force them to do something. So if I meet a partner, this is where my answer can change. So when people out ask a lot of these interview questions, it confuses my brain because if they're not open to children, I'm like, okay, well, why aren't you open to it? You know, like this that whatever their answer is, I don't know, and I'm like, Okay.
