The Texan: I’m the black sheep of my family.
The Unconventional Woman: Maybe Berlin is a city of black sheep.

……

The Texan: I can see how your research is fascinating, but maybe it’s holding you back.

……

The Texan:  I always felt that I was awkward type…I’m never able to articulate how I feel at the right moment.

The Unconventional Woman:  I’m the awkward type as well..but I’ve realized now that there are two types of awkward.  There are those who don’t feel comfortable articulating themselves, but I’m the type who is always open about how I feel in the moment, and fears they will be rejected for their honesty afterwards.
