Brian DoyleI am a puzzle and a conundrum and a thunderstorm.
About This Quote
The ultimate definition of a puzzle is something that is so complex it leaves the person who is trying to solve it baffled. A conundrum, on the other hand, is something that can be understood easily because it is simple in its nature. The line between the two words can get fuzzy, but when it comes to love, there are many conundrums that give us headaches. Some people are too complicated for their own good and they cannot make up their mind on anything.
They give us headaches and seem to be more troubled than they are worth. They’re like thunderstorms; they’re always popping up and causing problems for everyone around them.
