This is going to be a sad story for so many families. People are saving mahogany dining sets, breakfronts full of exquisite glasses and plates, and whole sets of silverware for their children who do not want, need, or have a place to put them.

Your unwillingness to approach men you like means you are stuck with only the men who approach you. You aren't attracted to "confidence", you're lazy and the that limits your pool of candidates.

I hope you don't call that person you don't need to speak to just to get comfort this Christmas. 🤗 You're doing fine, sweetie. You'll just start the madness all over again and you've grown so much that you don't need to.

I don't owe any woman orgasm, once I cum, I cum. We both started the same time, hustle for your own orgasm.
