Home: Roanoke Age: 22 Sign: Libra Occupation: Director of community service for Children's Miracle Network School: Majored in communications with a concentration in public relations at Radford University About Erin: She's an independent gal with a shoe fetish (we're talking closets full of shoes) who's big on family and her Chihuahua, Vegas. She's ambitious and dedicated. Also, she's accident-prone, and strange events seem to follow her like bad karma. General interests: Water sports, Latin music and retail therapy (after a bad day, there's nothing like a little rest and reprieve in the fish or garden section). She also loves to travel; the mystery of airports and sleeping in hotels being a large part of the appeal.
Where you're most likely to find Erin: Working out at Gold's Gym or eating sushi at the Sake House in Salem or at Metro downtown. Erin's routine when she goes out: Regardless of where she goes or what she does, Erin usually tries to sneak Vegas in with her. It's always worth the risk because, as she says, "he's about the size of one of my shoes." How long she's been single: Recently single Pros of single life: You're more self-reliant and you don't have to deal with jealousy. Cons of single life: There's a lot of highs and lows, and people look at you funny when you go out to dinner or to the movies by yourself. Sometimes it's nice to have someone to share your fun with. Who she'd like to meet: Erin's Mr. Right is confident, committed and outgoing. Conceited and clingy men need not apply.
How Erin rates Roanoke's single life on a scale of 1 to 5: 2 Why? Singles are mostly limited to the downtown area, which can be like a "sorority center" — it's cliquish and you see a lot of the same faces at every bar. Best date in Roanoke: Going to the guy's house and making dinner. She prefers randomly picking a page out of a cookbook to pre-planning an elaborate meal. It's more spontaneous that way and she likes the intimacy of eating in. Worst date in Roanoke: Going somewhere where you can't talk, like a concert at the civic center. If you can't talk, what's the point? How to approach Erin: Don't use a bad line like, "I've seen you somewhere before. I think it was in Maxim." Erin values down-to-earth honesty.
