The element of timid.



I once had a (male) friend like her - but I was the only person he would talk to.



But I didn't regard him well. Ignored him and felt irriating when he followed me around talking to me. Now we lost contact and he might not want to talk to anyone in public again.



Some tears when I first related Marble to him on this one. Good she has some good friends - and I'm ashamed.
