Address: Hogwarts
Playing for: Boy, Romance
I've been dating around for quite some time now, but I've never seemed to be able to find the right fit for me. I've tried looking into real men, but it hasn't been working out, so I intend on trying something new and seeing if maybe someone fictional will suit me instead.
