I'm 19 and my life is drawing/painting art pieces

Music is a HUGE enjoyment of mine, and I've written lyrics and composed music on my keyboard (just as a hobby for now..) Creative writing is forever a love of mine as well

I don't know if I look exactly like the typical emo/goth/scene person, but I find myself to get along with (and most attracted to) people in these groups.
In high school I pretty much WAS that "basket-case" goth girl. However, since I graduated I've had such a chaotic (Fabulous/Horrid) year I stopped putting as much effort into my outward appearance. (Also because my job wouldn't allow it -.-)
Yes, we all dream of meeting that special someone in our lives and falling into a true, deep romance. (And yes, I'm pretty sure we know how it feels to get back stabbed, betrayed, manipulated, have our hearts curbed-stomped and what-not by the wrong person we let in at some point.) XP
A lot of us have well-justified trust issues, and may even be scared to try again. (Needless to say I definitely fall in that category.)
So...
My only request is that I'd like to be friends first. I would like to get to know you and you to know me before anything else and see where it may take us...You never know. (I do know that true love is one worth waiting for

I'm always open to friendship as well
