““And I have a weakness for people with character. Those who you can see determination sparkling in their eyes. Straight-forward, knowing how to keep a fine line between being frank and being rude, confident and arrogant.

My intuition never fails me. They guard their hearts with a firm look and a faint smile that, secretly, tell you about a deep pain they’re unwilling to share. Challenging? Yes, they are. And this is the exact thing that keeps me attracted. Up until they challenge me. That’s when everything changes and turns upside down. ‘Cause I’ll be up for the challenge and it’s often the end of it. Better not test me.””
