If one wants to be loved and return it full score dagger of silence closes the door.

I call him by his first name only. We’re that friendly. Plus, with a last name of McGee, why would I ever bother calling him by his full name of Dicksmear McGee?

I’m always 15 minutes early for everything. In fact, I was born 15 minutes early. That’s why my love is always a bit premature. But don’t worry; just give our relationship a minute—plus fourteen more.

I had a dream about you. Dinner for two turned into dinner for three when you told me you were pregnant. I was excited, but a little nervous, because we were at a fancy restaurant...

No man would ever want a girl who roams nude in a bar and drenches herself in bear on a slumber party.

Her vagina feels like home, while her sister’s vagina feels like a hotel room. I should ask for a late checkout.

Among the many answers I have found, I believe love is the most beautiful and simple art that reflects the beauty of life.

Winter is much like unrequited love; cold and merciless.

We walked to meet each other up at the time of our love and then we have been irresistibly drifting in different directions, and there’s no altering that.
