He is my best friend, my knight in shining armor, my superhero and also my sidekick. He alone has been there for me no matter what happens and has supported me in whatever I do, even if he doesn’t agree.

“I don’t look like a typical geeky person probably because I love fashion so much so I think guys don’t even try approaching me. Also I get scared when guys I find attractive talk to me. I just ignore them so I come off as rude.”

“Someone who values others over herself.”

“I want someone to kiss me like they’re drowning and I’m air. I want them to touch me with reverence. I want them to look into my eyes while we make love and tell me afterwards how they changed color. I want them to hold me like I’m some precious, delicate thing, but fuck me with the wild abandon of a man who’s finally able to lose control, and unleash himself.”

“Embrace the glorious mess that you are.”

“My wife turned out to be extremely food jealous. If I am eating something that looks and tastes better than what she is eating, she gets pretty upset if I don’t offer her any.”

“No way am I going down on you! Vaginas are GROSS!”

I’m very much pro-choice, but I could never have an abortion myself. I’m also 30-something with a house and a very good salary, so more than able to care for a kid. I’ve always wanted kids anyway, so I decided to keep it. I told him as much, and that he was free to be involved or not, but I didn’t need his money.

“When she talks herself down and won’t accept your arguments to convince her otherwise. Or when she has to have everybody’s attention all the time at all cost.”
