1) Single, Taken, or Crushing? Taken and crushing. I can do both. Look ma, I'm multi-tasking!
2) Are you happy with where you are? Yes, I am. I like who I am, and "who I am" encompasses all the choices I made that led me to this time and place and situation.
3) When you meet the right person, would you fall fast? Yes. Yes, I did.
4) Have you ever had your heart broken? Yeah. It was for the best, but it wasn't fun at the time.
5) Do you believe that there are certain circumstances where cheating is okay? No. If you're unhappy with your relationship, butch up. Fix it, renegotiate it, or end it. Lying and sneaking around is vile behavior.
6) Would you ever take someone back if they cheated on you? Maybe. Tenatively. But it would never be the same.
7) Have you talked about marriage with another person? Yes.
8) Do you want children? No. I've never wanted children. As a kid, I kind of assumed that someday I would have children, the same way I assumed I'd get married that same Someday. But I never wanted children. And to paraphrase T'Pring of Vulcan, "as the years passed, I came to know that I did not wish ever to be a parent." I did, eventually become a parent, but a step-parent, of kids who were eight and twelve. I successfully avoided ever having to raise an infant or a toddler, which would have driven me mad. Mad, I tell you!
9) How many? M-O-O-N and that spells none!
10) Would you consider adoption? What are you, deaf? No.
11) If somebody liked you right now, what do you think is a cool way to let you know? "I like you. I think we might enjoy continuing this conversation."
12) Do you enjoy playing hard to get? No. I'm not in it for the chase. I'm all about the kill, baby! (Figuratively speaking, of course.)
13) Do you want someone you can't have? Sure. I want lots of things I can't have. You learn to live with it.
14) Do you believe love at first sight exists? No. Infatuation, attraction, lust--sure. But love? No. You have to know someone to love them, and knowing them takes time.
15) Do you believe in celebrating anniversaries? Sure. It's an opportunity to celebrate [whatever].
16) Do you believe that you can change someone? Sure, if by "change" you mean crush their spirit and tyrannize them. People've been doing it to one another throughout history. Positive change? No, you can encourage and support, but they have to make the effort themselves.
17) If you could get married anywhere, money's not an object? It's not about where, it's about whom. And I already married my lovely and talented wife.
18) Do you have feelings for someone right now? Yes.
19) Have you ever wished you could've had someone but you couldn't? Did I answer this already? Yeah, but life is full of little disappointments.
20) Have you ever broken a heart? Probably.
21) Would you ever fight someone over your significant other? To protect her? You're damn right. To keep her? She's not my property, to be defended against poachers. All I have to do to keep her is not stop being the man she already loves.
