Basically...
Almost anything non-automotive engineer-related you can think of, I probably have some interest in...
In fact, even things I find boring, I can often find myself wanting to know more about... Like bridges. I don't give a rat's rear about them, but I can still be transfixed to a poorly narrated (might put extraverts to sleep) documentary on one. Why? Perhaps, I quite seriously want to know everything of importance...
What am I *not* interested in?
Well... Hero-types who didn't actually do anything more than be brave and kill people (war heroes). Why? Because, they're living long enough to become famous has a lot to do with luck and survival skills. It's basic. Anyone can do it. Anyone. Say otherwise, and you're probably just a d*** coward. If you were placed in the heroic situations they were first placed in, you will either allow fear to overcome you or your natural survival instincts (we all have them!) will kick in. Whichever of the two paths you'd choose, it'd then be entirely up to chance/luck (timing, & things happening you can't control) as to whether or not you survive. You could even get through something incredibly heroic while just trying to cowardly run away and/or hide.... It does happen. Quite often.
Dates. I have difficulty remembering the dates things happened, so I don't normally bother to even really read/hear them. Why bother? It's not like it's important to know exactly when; so long as you know that it's important, it happened, and you understand why it's important, you know all that's needed of it.
The act of dating. It's stale, it's blatant, it's all the same, it's a routine to decieve. On a typical date, is it not just two individuals trying their best to decieve one-another to get into eachother's pants, house, fame, class (in whatever type of hierarchy), and/or money? I'm all for love and romance, but dating doesn't have either. Following a routine is not romantic, and trying to pretend to be some gentleman, playboy, lady, or slut ain't going to lead to love. People today have no idea what are romance and love. None, whatsoever. I, personally, will never date-date. Go out and about with someone I already know and care for? Sure. (I'd call that hanging out/quality time, or a date as more of a joke, not dating.) Go out and about with a total stranger trying to figure him out while worrying what he thinks of me? No. That takes the fun out of the whole thing. You see... While a Scorpio, Cancer (or a number of other signs) girl may just act a girl-stereotype on a date, knowing so long as they seem cutsey, domestic, and shy they'll be liked, Virgos (or at least true Virgos) have this thing about honesty. We also see through acts and lies, and may expect (or wish) for a guy we're interested in to have that same ability. So, a Virgo girl isn't going to like portraying herself as anything but a Virgo girl, and will not find spending time trying to be romantic and have fun with a total stranger (who is probably lying and acting their way by) a pleasing way to spend her day/night.
I'd like to meet:
Attraction Preferences:
Male...
Anywhere from 5'4" to 5'9"...
Slender... If he has fat bulging anywhere, it will probably bug me. As a petite, that kind of stuff is foriegn to me.
Muscular enough to be more solid, but not so that anything bulges out... Over-developed pectorals look like wannabe breasts, and I likeses MALE chests, so that's just as annoying as the "man-boobs" phenomena...
Basically, think of the typical anime-guy build... (i.e. All but Barret and Rude have said typical anime-guy builds in Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children... Though, in some of those cases [Cloud] with over-developed pectorals... Gross...)
Hair can be black, a darker shade of brown, an unnatural red (I don't exactly mind a guy liking to dye his hair), or a rich blond...
And, hair should be preferably five inches (or more) long, though exceptions can be made if shorter hair doesn't look sleazy, prickish, or bland...
He should be pale, or tanned...
I prefer guys to have green, brown, deeper brown (sometimes mistaken for black), or hazel eyes...
The Sun Signs I'd most prefer for a male are Capricorn, Taurus, or possibly a fellow Virgo. Though, if of a different Sun Sign but having a strong Earthy
sort of personality anyways (i.e. in your Rising, Moon Sign, & etc.), exceptions can be made.
Friendship Preferences:
I best get along with fellow Virgos, Capricorns, Tauri, Scorpios, and Cancers. However, I can get along with others if they aren't overly ignorant, immature, dishonest, bossy, or assuming, and if they can accept my Virginian nature.
I prefer friends of higher intelligence and wisdom, but I'll be okay with others so long as they can accept the fact that my mind's superior to theirs. It's not so much of a prejudice, it's that too many people have bloated-egos and believe themselves to be of higher IQ than is actual. (Don't argue over subjects you have no clue on!)

Introvert, Tomboy (or "girly" guy), and/or Eccentric Genius who remains true to him/herself despite being wrongly viewed by most of society as weird, controversial, thinking too much, not social enough, creepy, daft, gay, "gay," cold, malicious, overly opinionated, and/or a "stick in the mud."
If you are one such person, you at least have *partial* support from this introverted, tomboyish, Virginian, eccentric, lesser genius.
