I would like to own my own home too, but it's extremely unrealistic for me for lots of reasons I won't bore you guys with. Bottom line is I can barely afford to live in my apartment by myself, so a home that will definitely cost more is out of the question.

My main dream though is to find a mate that I can also call my best friend. I've wanted that more than anything for so long. I'd be ok with just having a best friend, but I'm greedy and don't like to share, so I feel like with the title of mate I'd be able to say "pay attention to me this much, otherwise go nuts". I feel what I want isn't that unreasonable either, not for mates anyways. The only problem has been finding someone who I'm compatible with and is interested in me in that way.
