Another question is why you associate being 'deep and complex' with unpredictability and predictability with 'simplicity'? At least, that's how you (seemingly) categorized these characteristics.
It's (probably) no surprise that I value 'complexity' and being 'unique'. But it doesn't have to mean that I am unpredictable (and from what I have noticed/heard- I do seem to be pretty predictable). Predictability is something I value when it comes to how people are able/dare to rely on you, mostly as some foundation of trust. So they know they don't have to walk on eggshells around me, that I stick to my promises, that they can at least get some basic sense of 'who I am' and 'what to expect' (in certain circumstances),...
I wouldn't value predictability in the sense that I am seen as 'mundane'. But someone can be predictable, yet 'innovative' at the same time (as in; they bring great ideas to the table- you know they will).
In real life I'd say that most people don't get past my "what you see is what you get". I rarely open up (and some people have indeed interpret this as me being 'mysterious'- whether or not they thought I was doing it on purpose). The only thing that might have surprised people (especially in the past) is that I am quiet and sometimes shy, but that I am generally not afraid to state my opinion and I won't take other people's shit either.

I don't care, whatever they are comfortable with/suits them. The world is overpopulated- if I don't like them I'll find myself someone else and so will they.Do you think people should be more open, as-is, and honest, or is it better (in any way) that they hide a part of themselves?
