I am shy but art school is starting soon and I am looking for a boyfriend someday husband

I love to make peoplethat I know laugh, but I don't do very good with strangers. I'm going in a video game design class, should I look for people with the same interest as me for this or expand my horizons? I want to find a boyfriend who is romantic knows how to cook and bake, but silly like me and like to make me laugh... should I look for sheep or pig or dog or who? Which zodiac sign would be respectful of his elders I don't want to be with one who is not nice to his elders.
