Why I am a female reject
| June 8, 2012 | Posted by under General Content & Rants |
As we’re approaching wedding season, I am reminded again how separated I am from my own gender. I just don’t get their ways and the things they want out of life. I don’t get most of them, at all. I haven’t been to a wedding in years, and that was a low key one for…
