We are not what the media portrays us as--Texans are friendly, caring, etc, but most importantly of all, (most) Texans have a well-refined sense of personal space and an exceptionally well-developed sense of "none o' my damn business." Which is an important trait.
I hate the weather here. But I love the people!
Hmm. So Texan guys are more into really tall, really smart Aspie chix0rs than New Englanders are, then? Somehow, I doubt that, good sir...
Besides, if I'm condemned to live the remainder of my life in solitude/like a nun, I'd rather do it up here in the Northeast. At least the weather's more interesting.
Not necessarily
more, per se. But you'd probably be a hit. I've found that in Texas, for the most part, there is a lot less pretense and a lot more sincerity. They're an honest bunch, for the most part. Good people--kind, honorable, and independent-minded.
That being said, the weather can be bad. For instance, we didn't have winter last year (the year before we had it for a week! The whole city shut down under layers of ice and snow for the Superbowl), and I don't expect to have it next year. The summers tend to be pretty hot (most of August was over 100 for us, I think). We also get fairly radical shifts in temperature in the winter: yesterday, the high was 83; today? 53 or so. The weather here can be brutal: we regularly get golf-ball to baseball sized hail, and extremely brutal thunderstorms (words fail me in this regard). It serves as a good reminder of human finitude, and just how abysmally weak we are without our technology.
I do miss winters, though.
