Speaking as someone who is very "intense"....this is quite true. I recently made a friend who can handle my intensity and bring his own, so things are going well between us so far. I'm still learning how to reign in my intensity, but also finding people who can handle the fact that I am naturally an intense person. After all, the intensity will come forward at some point, so I can't hide that side of me forever!
