Avoziki

Posted on March 12, 2016 by debspots

I pretend to be very grown-up, self-sufficient and independent. In reality, I am desperate, needy and pathetic. Don’t tell anybody! I am such a loser. Seriously! The most obvious manifestation of this is the way I behave whenever one of … Continue reading →
