heh @ analyzing walking habits. it reminds me of not long ago walking with a friend and being thwarted and confused cos she would hang behind and expect me to "lead." and it was only then that i realized that i always hang back and expect the other person to "lead" without thinking about it. after i realized what was happening i was able to take the leading position. once with the same friend i was all caught up in conversation and ended up leading us way off in the wrong direction. but she was the one to finally point it out (and laughed at me for going the wrong way even though she was walking with me). i dont mind walking with her, but its a different kind of dynamic than what i'm used to. i think she's IEE, dont know if it matters.
