What are you looking for in a partner? I am looking for someone who I can be myself with and who will be there in good times and in bad times. Someone to grow old with. I think someone who loves the outdoors and the environment like I do would be a good fit. And someone who values family and traditions. If she can cook, all the better, because a home-cooked meal is so much better than that military food.
What is your life goal: To meet my Soulmate, get married, have a family, be successful in my career, and travel the world. Not much, right? I'd like to experience different cultures and teach my children to value others, no matter where they are from.
What are your favorite hobbies (in game only): Well, I was on the soccer team in high school, so I did enjoy that. And I used to play a lot of chess with my Grandpa. In the winter, I love skating, and I have always wanted to try snowboarding.
How many children do you want: One of each would be nice, but, hey, I think talking to my significant other would be a good start. But I definitely want children. I was an only child, and always longed for brothers and sisters. So, large or small family is fine, but, yes, I would like kids or adopt kids.
What would you like to do for a job (in game only): Currently in the military. Hoping to continue to get promotions in that field and enter officer training.
Favorite color: Blue.
Pets? Y or N: Pets are nice, dogs or cats...sure.
List good qualities about yourself: I'm pretty athletic, I really love to be in the outdoors, and am very environmentally-conscious. I pretty much get along with everyone.
List bad qualities about yourself: Coming from a very strict upbringing, and being very routine in the military, sometimes, I just want to "let loose." I don't know if that's really a bad thing, but I secretly have this "wild side" to me.
Background info:Sul Sul! I'm Shayne Layton, originally from Windenberg. I was raised by my Irish grandparents when my parents were killed in a car accident when I was just a baby. I'm an only child. Growing up, we lived on a farm in the country, and so there were lots of chores that I had to do. I didn't really have much of a social life, although I got along with everyone. My grandparents were very strict about me doing my studies and getting good grades. In high school, my phys ed teacher told me I was a natural athlete. My grandparents let me try out for the soccer team, and I did win a few medals. I guess you could say that after that, the girls kind of flocked around me, but, even though I went on a few dates, there was really no-one special. When I graduated, I had an athletic scholarship to attend university, but I wanted to see the world. I had never been anywhere outside of Windenberg. After a lot of thought, I decided to join the military, which offered good simoleons and a chance to travel. After basic training, the work schedule was Monday to Friday, which meant my weekends were free. Well, mainly free, as I did help out at home on the farm.
Living with my grandparents taught me a lot about respect, compassion, and the love for the great outdoors. They also taught me about enduring love. Whenever I see them together, they are always helping each other, and I see Grandpa sometimes giving Grandma a kiss in the garden. I am hoping to find that type of love. And I guess that's why I am interested in getting to know
Ember Rex more. Maybe she will be the one that I will have a 'spark' with, and maybe something more.
