Personal quotes: All humans are born with the ability to be attracted to both sexes. I mean, I could see myself in a relationship with a girl. I love the high-risk (guys). I don't like cream puff, corny guys. Usually they are the nice guys, the ones that won't hurt you. They'll pull out the chair for you and the whole nine yards. Everything is perfect and boring. I like the risk, I like the edge. That's the thrill for me.
