Re: Standoffish

I think it's good to have some standoffish people. It saves me having to make friends with them.

Re: Standoffish

I have been accused of it. Last year in Sicily with an all singles group. I do admit that I did leave the group most lunch breaks, I just wanted some space to myself,find a small place to have a meal and speak(or try to)Italian.

Nothing wrong with that OG. It's good to have some time on your own when on holiday.

Indeed I have Spitty, plenty of them in the jewellery trade and a few of them in the local, they all live in a world of their own making, cloud cuckoo land. The more they stand off from me the better I like it.

I believe they make very slow grape crushers in France, every time they get in a huff they stand off the grapes and step out of the vat.

Re: Standoffish

Some people may appear to be standoffish when all they are is a little reserved and are weighing up others, i.e it takes them a while to get to know people and then they will usually be fine.
I'm like that.

Re: Standoffish

I can"t recall ever really meeting SO people.I think if I did I would just shrug and let them get on with it. Plenty more fish in the sea[well there used to be, till the bluudy EU came along.]
I myself am not SO at all .
LOL
