I like the sound of this one. It means coolness or reserve between people and it comes from the French for cold: Froid.
There are several people I know who this word could apply to but I won’t name names. LOL! I try very hard to be nice to people and like to think I have a warm, welcoming demeanor, but there are just some people in the world that don’t warm up to me nor I to them. I guess that’s cool since we can’t all always like everyone, right?
There is one particular person I have tried my level best to be nice to and she always pushes me away. I can’t figure out if she’s the issue or I am and I’ve decided to let it go and not beat myself up over it anymore. C’est la vie!

Another word for frigid and maybe one to think about using in a story. I think sometimes people who are shy come across as cold. I used to be more that way but as I get older I get better… no, wrong word. I get more outgoing. 🙂
