thistleingreyI. Who was your first crush?
A third-grade classmate (8-9yo) who was casually nice to me as though I were their younger sib. (They had an actual younger sib, a year or two younger.) We ate lunch together for part of the school-year.
II. Are you an introvert or an extrovert?
Not an introvert, but I've neither been nor wanted to be the life of a party.
III. What is your favourite non-sexual thing you like to do with the love of your life?
*tilts head* This question seems rather overdetermined---
IV. What is one quirky habit your partner does that either annoys you or makes you grin?
---and this one seems a bit unfair for privacy. If it annoys you, chat with the person about it instead of telling the internet, yes? And if you think it's endearing, the person might appreciate knowing you think so, more than the internet would; if instead you're inclined to laugh at them, consider why, because that's a you-problem.
V. Do you believe in monogamous relationships?
I believe in a shared sense of commitment and belonging, honesty, and not causing deliberate, anticipatable harm ("cheating" is also a matter of perspective). But the word encodes itself: monogamy is about feeling certain that one's gametes---germ cells---have gone whither one expects. I don't believe in tight constraint or entitlement.
I guess this means that person/tissue could be construed as a monogamous relationship, but it's probably not what the question's writer meant.
