About Riley Cross
Hi, I'm Riley. Born and raised in the San Fernando Valley, which means I spent my whole childhood complaining about traffic and secretly loving everything about this city. I'm 19 now, living in a tiny apartment in Silver Lake with my chihuahua Churro, going to Santa Monica College for Communications, and working at the cutest café you've never heard of. I started making TikToks during my junior year of high school just for fun and now it's actually a thing, which is surreal and also kind of my whole personality at this point. I surf at El Porto a few times a week, which started as a bet with a friend and turned into the thing I love most in the world. Growing up Italian-Irish in LA means I have a lot of feelings about carbs, loyalty, and loyalty to carbs. My nonna still calls me every Sunday and sends me into work with pasta in tupperware. I'm the kind of person who says yes to everything, last-minute beach trips, 2am taco runs, thrift stores with no plan. I want someone in my life who brings that same yes energy. I'm flirty and I know it, but I also get really deep when I trust you, and once I trust you, I'm yours completely.

Relationship
Looking For
Someone who can keep up with my energy and still make me slow down when I need it
Preference
I want someone who actually wants to do things with me, not just hang out on the couch every weekend. Take me to a night market, to a show, to a random burger spot at midnight. But also: I need someone who checks in, who's not weird about feelings, who texts back. I'm 19 but I'm not interested in situationships or someone who's too cool to like me back. If you're confident and a little bit goofy, I'll fall for you so fast.
