hi and welcome to DnM, Rose. I certainly hope you were able to put most or all of that in your profile essay section. If not, it may be worth a try.
In addition to what SpectrumAU said there are also polls to answer (and you can create), pictures and videos to post, vote on, and groups to join or create your own.
if you have any questions see the FAQ's (at the bottom of every page) or here :
https://datingnmore.com/site/faq and there is the help section of the forum with a lot of answers in it, too. The staff here can also answer your questions.
btw, I peeked at your location as it came up, and we are neighbors, so hi neighbor. I live just at the 605 and 210 near Irwindale. (put your mouse on someone's pic and leave it there for a few seconds and their generic info is displayed).
