Tristessa

I am made entirely of flaws, stitched together with good intentions.

About Me

I have a very big heart. I'm intense and competitive. I love naps and sleeping late. I love traveling and trying anything once. I'm afraid of scary movies and rollercoasters make me cry. I'm afraid of the dark. I lack patience. I'm a giver. I love cooking for people. I am allergic to my cat but I'll never give him up. I never lie. I love hugs. I overreact. I'm impulsive. I love scrabble. I'm afraid of swans. I have a bad memory. I am very organized. I love to take bubble baths. I hate asparagas. I love the ocean and the sea. I don't like swimming because I'm afraid of sharks. I love Audrey Hepburn and daisies. I have a Pekingese named, Lulu, and an orange tiger cat named, Lester.

My Interests


    Kayaking Hiking Riding my bike Snowshoeing Fishing Skiing Planting Flowers Taking my dog for walks Cooking Baking Painting Meeting new people Animals (I want to take them all home) My Intuition People Watching Red Sox baseball


My passion is traveling. I've been to Puerta Rico twice, The Dominican Republic, The Bahamas, Istanbul, The Cayman Islands, Belize, Costa Maya, Cozumel, Canada and Israel three times. Israel is the most beautiful dream I've ever had while awake. I want to travel to as many different places I can.

I'd like to meet:

People with personal integrity. I love being outdoors. I love laughing. I try to find the positive in all things.

I liked my horoscope today. You can't force yourself to get along better with someone if they won't cooperate -- either you two are compatible or you're not compatible. So instead of continuing to bea...
