offish

Brand's a stand-offish kind of cuss, but he don't measure up so much higher than other folks as what he thinks, mebbe.

I have noticed that she is terribly offish with the girls, and they are half afraid to be pleasant with her.

I always have liked military men, but you're so stand-offish; and now, of course, goodness knows what you'll think!

But she was very offish until she learned to what party I belonged, and then gave me a dipper full of sweet milk.

I wanta go back to the offish and clean out that bunch of stiffs.
