Premium Member I Don'T Waste My Time With a Phony Baloney
If I care for a woman, but she doesn’t care for me, I will just get up and not hesitate to flee. I will not waste my time with such a phony baloney. A relationship only works when there is mutual interest. She has to meet me halfway; or I’ll cross her off my list. Even if she is the...
