You are a unique puzzle for sure, so yeah, it's interesting for me to see you open up at times. Please feel free to care and talk to me anytime for any reason if you're so inclined ~~ smiles.

Thanks! It wouldn't be civil of me to refer to anyone as maddening, but I do also care about those who I don't see eye to eye with. :-)
