What impression do you usually leave on others?

Do you think that you've done a good job of that so far?

@HalfCactus: I hope so, but I would think other people would have to verify that as truth....

I think the first impression I ever had from you was of someone that was needy. Fortunately, I got to know you better than that. I probably wouldn't have been able to appreciate all you have to offer if I had stuck to that impression

Men are wolves sometimes. Your age range makes you prime prey for them

That's one way of looking at it

Go big or go home, as they say. Although in your case, both might be necessary
