Why is it so hard for some people to make up their minds? They keep on hemming and hawing before they can come to an agreement. It is like pulling teeth. Hehe! They behave like executives in a government office. This couple I met is a classic case in point. Their travel documents are as old as the hills and there is this battle of words between them both. She asked him how long his passport allows him to stay. Then questions started to rain like hail. "Why this information was not made clear? Then there would have been no problem, my dear. Is it not the intention for us to meet for a while so we can see if there is chemistry between us and finally clear up the mystery that is lurking here? We are searching for that special one, are we not? Do you want to meet in the fall or summer? So, do I hear you say that you will come and stay for a while, three days or more, in the villa owned by John Moore? I hate to lose you because you cannot make up your mind or could it be that you so cheap because you think that the rent for the place is too steep? Or is this your way of saying goodbye?"
