I was curious as to what WOW said about this being a good Axiom. I confess that after I looked it up I am no closer to understanding what Axiom means 
Dictionary: axiom (ak'se-?m)
n.
A self-evident or universally recognized truth; a maxim: “It is an economic axiom as old as the hills that goods and services can be paid for only with goods and services” (Albert Jay Nock).
An established rule, principle, or law.
A self-evident principle or one that is accepted as true without proof as the basis for argument; a postulate.
[Middle English, from Old French axiome, from Latin axioma, axiomat-, from Greek, from axios, worthy.]
Thesaurus: axiom
noun
A broad and basic rule or truth: fundamental, law, principle, theorem, universal. See order/disorder.
Antonyms: axiom
n
Definition: principle
Antonyms: absurdity, ambiguity, foolishness, nonsense, paradox

Britannica Concise Encyclopedia: axiom
In mathematics or logic, an unprovable rule or first principle accepted as true because it is self-evident or particularly useful (e.g., "Nothing can both be and not be at the same time and in the same respect"). The term is often used interchangeably with postulate, though the latter term is sometimes reserved for mathematical applications (such as the postulates of Euclidean geometry). It should be contrasted with a theorem, which requires a rigorous proof.

Philosophy Dictionary: axiom
A proposition laid down as one from which we may begin; an assertion that is taken as fundamental, at least for the purposes of the branch of enquiry in hand. The axiomatic method is that of defining a set of such propositions, and the proof procedures or rules of inference that are permissible, and then deriving the theorems that result. It may be thought to be a hallmark of a particularly rigorous or ‘scientific’ approach to theories to demand that they should be axiomatized; on the other hand a willingness to rethink and challenge even accepted axioms has its own value.
Columbia Encyclopedia: axiom,
in mathematics and logic, general statement accepted without proof as the basis for logically deducing other statements (theorems). Examples of axioms used widely in mathematics are those related to equality (e.g., “Two things equal to the same thing are equal to each other”; “If equals are added to equals, the sums are equal”) and those related to operations (e.g., the associative law and the commutative law). A postulate, like an axiom, is a statement that is accepted without proof; however, it deals with specific subject matter (e.g., properties of geometrical figures) and thus is not so general as an axiom. It is sometimes said that an axiom or postulate is a “self-evident” statement, but the truth of the statement need not be evident and may in some cases even seem to contradict common sense. Moreover, a statement may be an axiom or postulate in one deductive system and may instead be derived from other statements in another system. A set of axioms on which a system is based is often wished to be independent; i.e., no one of its members can be deduced from any combination of the others. (Historically, the development of non-Euclidean geometry grew out of attempts to prove or disprove the independence of the parallel postulate of Euclid.) The axioms should also be consistent; i.e., it should not be possible to deduce contradictory statements from them. Completeness is another property sometimes mentioned in connection with a set of axioms; if the set is complete, then any true statement within the system described by the axioms may be deduced from them.

Science Dictionary: axiom
(ak-see-uhm)
In mathematics, a statement that is unproved but accepted as a basis for other statements, usually because it seems so obvious.
The term axiomatic is used generally to refer to a statement so obvious that it needs no proof.
Word Tutor: axiom
IN BRIEF: An accepted principle.
It has long been an axiom of mine that the little things are infinitely the most important. — Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859-1930)
Tutor's tip: Grandparents usually tell children "axioms" (self-evident truths) about life. Physicists talk about "axions" (hypothetical particles of matter) when trying to explain the universe.
Wikipedia: axiom
This article is about a logical statement. For the vehicle, see Isuzu Axiom. For other uses, see Axiom (disambiguation)
An axiom is a sentence or proposition that is not proved or demonstrated and is considered as self-evident or as an initial necessary consensus for a theory building or acceptation. Therefore, it is taken for granted as true, and serves as a starting point for deducing and inferencing other (theory dependent) truths.
In mathematics, an axiom is any starting assumption from which other statements are logically derived. It can be a sentence, a proposition, a statement or a rule that enables the construction of a formal system. Unlike theorems, axioms cannot be derived by principles of deduction, nor are they demonstrable by formal proofs—simply because they are starting assumptions—there is nothing else they logically follow from (otherwise they would be called theorems). In many contexts, "axiom," "postulate," and "assumption" are used interchangeably.
As seen from definition, an axiom is not necessarily a self-evident truth, but rather a formal logical expression used in a deduction to yield further results. To axiomatize a system of knowledge is to show that some of its claims can be derived from a small, well-understood set of sentences. This does not imply that they could have been known independently; and there are typically multiple ways to axiomatize a given system of knowledge (such as arithmetic). Mathematics distinguishes two types of axioms: logical axioms and non-logical axioms.
In natural sciences theories, an axiom is considered as an evident truth which does not need any explanation and is accepted without any demonstration or proof in their application domain. The weakness, applicability or utility of such logically correct theories depends on the arbitrary choice of their axioms.

I like that quote. Maybe I shouldn't make Tash a priority in my life since she seems to make me an option.

Thats a very good one Peach. I see that all the time, honestly-- People wanting others to jump and run when they beckon but not putting forth the same. I put that in the same category as the guy who asks or says "When are you going to come see me?" or "When you are near xxxxx, give me a call." to which I'm thinking... Yeah right, only in your wildest fantasies.
The one dimensional person or relationship is a huge turnoff for me.
