I don't think being mysterious is so much standing in the way of getting
to know someone.  It just makes it more of a challenge.  We should never
get it into our minds that we "know" what another person is.  Once we do,
what's left?

When I meet someone knew, I try to look beyone any pre-judgeing I may do and
start of first with the persons name, and then work my way on up (down? ;-)

okay, your a foolish child :-)

I agree that I wouldn't be able to get involved with someone who didn't open
up.  I feel very uncomfortable when I'm with a women and I feel like I've
been letting her into my personal life, and she hesitates to do the same.
It's not so much that I EXPECT her to be as open as I do, I just don't feel
comfortable talking to someone who can't hold a conversation.


One more day!  :-(

Life,
  Love,
    Laughter,
      and Hope,
