Telling

sell yourself short go ahead make excuses go ahead I'll stay and watch your mouth move and read your pontification but I know you are settling for less than you are worth my friend your fear of being alone is harder, stronger, bigger and you'll avoid embarrasment any day how do you explain to man after man how you got your house and your money? do you lie there and lie there and tell tales of how you ripped the skin off your ex-husband to ensure your own freedom I'd pay to see it if they knew the tale they might wonder if they are safe tell them
