THE "TAMED" MEME

You are one bad guy (or gal) and everyone knows it. Whether that definition is literal - you're evil and straight up bad - or more of the metaphorical badass, devil may care type is splitting hairs. Perhaps you're even known for bad habits: womanizing, unfriendliness, greed, bad attitude, snarkiness, nonchalance, reckless behavior, stoicism, illegal acts...mild sociopathy. You know, little things. No matter what the case may be, you have a reputation that makes just about every person who knows of you think you're always less than perfectly agreeable.

The key here is just about every person. There is one who knows the you that isn't always in on mode, one who can get past that rough exterior without getting destroyed by the natural disaster that is you. And they can do more than get past your defenses; actually, when you're around them, you're over the moon. Like a big, gentle lap dog, you can't get over your affection for them, though with anyone else, and to protect that one special person, you're a raging wolf. Maybe you don't want to admit it, but them's the facts. Of course, you would never show this in public -

- in private, though? You're tamed, like it or not. Now, since you're more or less behind closed doors, you'll show them how good (or bad) you can be. Because no one else can compare. Because no one else could tame you. Will they understand and treat you with kindness and love? Will they tease you? Banish the thought that they would ever, ever use your feelings and difference in their presence to their advantage.
