CP - Wow, from an outsider's perspective, I'd say a lot of it sounds pretty accurate. Passionate, intelligent, strong, persistent... someone that requires the kind of mental exercise I see you engaging in all of the time. I don't generally buy into that kind of thing - but... yours seems to be the way I've viewed you from moment 1.

Of course, how we present ourselves outwardly doesn't always reflect the insecurity and shyness that we might feel on a regular basis. I know that regularly, I'm seen as someone who is very outgoing and conversational, when, for the most part, I'm rather shy until I know I like someone (which is a rather stringent sort of issue with me. I'm nice, I don't like everyone...)
