Without wanting to ‘bench’ or ‘dump’ one of your romantic suitors (because you don’t want to hurt their feelings, really like both and completely undecided) you try and juggle things.

You therefore focus your mind on over-analysing who is your perfect match. 

This can make you act a little flustered at times as you try and keep everything together.

This may come as a surprise to your friends and family because you are normally quite level-headed, and honesty is a big trait of yours.

But it might all end in disaster if you don’t make your choice soon.

You are also very dependant on your circle of friends.

Remember they can sometimes know us better than we know ourselves.
