Quiquay: quirks

I read this blog from a link a former coach posted over at FB. http://thoughtcatalog.com/wes-janisen/2013/08/you-should-fall-for-someone-who-doesnt-love-you/ This was my life before the One came along. That one I ended up with. The boy behind the door who was infinitely more interesting than the so-called cute boy-next-door types. While I would boldly go and face each adventure and challenge I met with enthusiasm, the male species and love stumped me. Oh, I had no problem talking to them and being friends but I was always friend-zoned. On the "annoyingly nosy and know-it-all friend" zone.

And yes, I like a bit of direction as well but when you're running hot and cold at the same time it really gets to my nerves. If only I didn't have this sense of responsibility I'd have left that client high and dry. But no, the person doesn't really deserve that so I'll play nice until I really finish this project. And in the meantime, just to calm my temper, I'm going to look at those job ads again. =p
