Joanna Gaines Quote

On this particular afternoon, they all started teasing me. You should go out to the lobby, Jo. There’s a hot guy out there. Go talk to him! they said.No, I said. Stop it! I’m not doing that.I was all of twenty-three, and I wasn’t exactly outgoing.She was a bit awkward--no doubt about that.I hadn’t dated all that much, and I’d never had a serious relationship--nothing that lasted longer than a month or two. I’d always been an introvert and still am (believe it or not). I was also very picky, and I just wasn’t the type of girl who struck up conversations with guys I didn’t know. I was honestly comfortable being single; I didn’t think that much of it.Who is this guy, anyway? I asked, since they all seemed to know him for some reason.Oh, they call him Hot John, someone said, laughing.Hot John? There was no I was going out in that lobby to strike up a conversation with some guy called Hot John.
