maverick: I think i suffer from what most artists suffer from though.
maverick: well...somewhat.

maverick: whenever I have a girl that i can actually talk to or just know that she's there, I suppose it's when I'm happy enough to create or whatever.

maverick: like a muse, if that's the right thing to call it.
maverick: having another person a part of my life...I dunno...I always seem to need that.
maverick: I don't always have it, and I'll get by without it and I know it's stupid to rely on such things.
maverick: But when it's not there, then I'm always wondering...always contemplating...trying to figure out where life is taking me and who will become a part of it next.

c: Yeah see, most everyone is like that, just some people hide it better than others.. or they are lying to themselves, but on some level, everyone wants that.

maverick: well i feel like I'm one of the only ones
maverick: well...not true...I know there are people that just can't seem to be without a girl, or the "significant other" seems to change every two weeks.
maverick: I'm not like that.

c: You are DEFINITELY not the only one, you just wear your heart on your sleeve.
c: & you are extraordinarily sensitive for a guy

maverick: I don't deny this.
maverick: I feel like emotions are honesty in it's truest form, and I've always been a straightforward person.
maverick: I should never let my emotions dictate my actions, no, but I'm definitely not going to hide them unless it's completely necessary.

c: See I am the complete opposite. I never ever show emotion no matter what. Not sure exactly why, I've just always been like that for some reason.

maverick: I've tried not showing emotion. Exuding a state of extreme calm so that I could be the cool kid that everyone always wondered about.
maverick: I never got to accomplish that though. I'll try again when I get to Austin, but I'll end up failing miserably because I always have to have an opinion on things and I'll always have to be straightforward about it.
