I’ve got an ex boyfriend. When he wasn’t an ex boyfriend, we obviously used to hang out a lot and when you get that close with somebody, you get to see each other’s habits, things they do and don’t do and sides of each other that other people just have no other reason to see. […]

Is It Safe To Talk About Sex Yet? | Blogtober Day 4
