Hopefully the humor comes through.
- I’m “old.” In Mormon culture, being over 23 and unmarried automatically makes you an Old Maid. It doesn’t help that I returned from my mission when I was 23. I was doomed from the start.
- I am a menace to society, since I’m over 25 and unmarried. #badgeofhonor
- No guy has ever eaten a dinner I’ve cooked. In college I really honed my cooking skills. Seriously, I was on fire in the kitchen (not literally, of course) my last year of college! I have several Pinterest boards dedicated to recipes that will be sure to tickle any man’s taste buds. My specialties are: pasta, chicken, pasta with chicken, and brownies. If the way to a man’s heart is really through his stomach, I could have a husband in no time.
- I had a crush on at least 5 elders while I was serving my mission. Clearly the Lord is punishing me for not having my heart properly “locked.” I guess I walk a fine line between saint and apostate.
- I don’t know how to flirt. Therefore, I never flirt. Even if there’s a guy who I think is super cute and with whom I want to go on a date. I just never flirt.

- As of yet, I haven’t found a guy to introduce to Sean&Jocelyn. Let’s be real here – even if a potential boyfriend/fiance/husband is liked by my family but doesn’t get along with and is not approve by these two, it’s a deal breaker. I live for the day when we can go on couples double dates.
- Not to mention I have a list of other people who need to give their stamp of approval: Uncle Howard, Aunt Tonya, Hillary, Taylor, and Bethany. Becoming a potential boyfriend/fiance/husband for me is harder than getting into Narnia.
- Books have addled my brain. There’s no coming back. #IlikebigbooksandIcannotlie

- I judge grammar hardcore. It’s impossible for me to not notice grammatical mistakes, even in my own text messages. When I receive or send a message with an error, I die a little bit on the inside.
- I haven’t tried online dating.
- I’m old-fashioned and expect the guy to make the first move.
- Guys just don’t understand my clever, witty, nerdy, self-deprecating, and sometimes dark sense of humor.

- Me and depression are a packaged deal. You can’t have one without the other.
- I don’t like Harry Potter. #overrated
- I’m so low-maintenance I’m considered lazy.
- I don’t put myself out there enough and make my presence known. Because reading a book in the evening is the only social interaction I need in my life.
- Mr. Knightley is not real.

- Acne scares. #bigpores #pubertysucks #thesescarsstillremain
- I refuse to be a princess who needs rescuing from an ivory tower. I am a Joan of Arc and I create my own destiny!
(But please, somebody love me and don’t let me burn at the Stake of Singleness.) - I’m terribly socially awkward and can’t function in crowds.
- Men don’t dress like this anymore:

- I bite my nails. They always looks stubby.
- I don’t smile enough. Because smiling obviously always means someone is happy and never faking it. I guess I’ll stop thinking deeply about things now.

- When I watch movies in the theater, I get motion sick (it’s a real thing). That throws a lot of dating opportunities in the trash. “Oh, you get motion sick in the theater? Well, I guess dinner and a movie is out, so since I can’t take you on a cliche first date, I just won’t take you out at all.” #whathappenedtocreativity
- I’m am hopelessly devoted to food. I cannot live without it.
