Hi Leilani,
It’s actually a good thing when you are asked about what you are looking for early on by people you are chatting with on a dating site. It gives the both of you a chance to gauge just how similar you both are in what you are looking for.
Better to find out earlier on that someone isn’t looking for the same thing than after weeks or months of communicating and dates. Just be honest about what you are looking for when asked.
You don’t have to get into the details about it. You could even tell a joke or two to keep the mood lighthearted. But, it is a good question and you are actually at an advantage if asked this question early on.
