Hi everyone , long time lurker first time poster . I ' m a female engineering student in Portland , OR . I love long distance running , hiking , biking , kayaking , graffiti art , reading comics and Nintendo ! My salpingectomy consult is scheduled for January and I ' m looking for someone who ' s interested in or is sterilized as well . I would love to meet someone else who shares my child free stance as my school is full of future mombies and daddicts , or those that are my age who have children already . Which is disheartening , especially when I want to go on a play date at the mountain with whiskey not at Gymboree with Bratleigh . I went through a really dark period the past few years , and shed 100 lbs recently . Fitness has helped me regain my self love and find confidence I never had growing up . I run marathons , frequently . I would ideally like a partner or friend who enjoys exercising and would want to train together . I ' m really looking for a best friend that can maybe turn into something more one day . I ' ve never been with another CF person and I ' d really like to see the adventures we could get into together . Long distance is fine with me , travel is one of my favorite things !
