I'm sort of a introvert but that doesn't mean I'm not out going I do work alot not by choice but I enjoy it this dose keep me from doing other things but having someone beside me is not one of them I want someone who enjoys going out as much as staying at home I don't feel friend are needed but family is good enough for me anyways I do feel having a job is important so being independent and fiscally responsible is a must thus don't mean I haven't made mistakes but I've learned so hopefully you have also also friends aren't essential I've had to many of those most flakes others just walk away so family is important
