"You're 'quirky'," she says.

I'm not sure what this means. Several things at once, maybe.

That I'm emotional, but some of the triggers of my emotionality remain obscure to her.

That I will respond harshly to anyone who disrespects her, but will sometimes disrespect her myself.

These are the attempts at positive spin which occur to me.
