Did you know that sea otters hold hands while they sleep to keep from floating away from each other? Although I have no desire to ever fall asleep while floating on my back in a sea with you, I do have to admit that I find that little tidbit utterly adorable. And I will find you utterly adorable too if you:

1) Have a strong testimony of the gospel

2) Make me laugh every day

3) Aren't afraid of letting your mushiness peak through your manly demeanor every once in awhile

4) Have confidence in yourself

5) Do what you love and love what you do

6) Expect the best from yourself and from me

7) Love and serve others

8) Are a little bit goofy

9) Love your family

10) Are willing to put in the work that a happy and healthy relationship requires

I'm a little awkward when I'm first getting to know you, but once we get to know each other a little, I'm sure you will find me utterly adorable too if you like a girl who:

1) Has a strong testimony of the gospel

2) Sets goals and works hard to achieve them

3) Loves to laugh and be silly sometimes

4) Is passionate about causes that she cares deeply about

5) Is a good listener

6) Will hold your hand while you snuggle

7) Enjoys a good game of college football as much or more than you

8) Is a blossoming cook and enjoys trying out new recipes on you

9) Loves her family

10) Is willing to put in the work that a happy and healthy relationship requires

If you want to see how adorable we'd be if we combined our adorableness, feel free to drop me a line or a smile. I'd love to hear from you.

P.S. What you may not find adorable is that I'm overweight. I'm working on that because I want to be the healthiest and happiest I can be for me, you, and everyone in my life who counts on me. In fact, I'm training for a couple of races this summer and use the goals I've set to keep me on track.
