3 words better than “i love you"??

Sometimes the truth hurts more than the lie.

Gen Z girls be honest… I’m 25 and still a virgin. And people act like that’s not even possible for a woman. The second I say it, half of them assume I’m lying or that I’m actually a guy. Like I could walk outside and accidentally land on a di.k. 😭 Wild.

So real question: why are so many of us not having s.x?

Or why have you never had it?

Guys can chime in too, but I mainly want to hear from other women.

We never really fixed that fight.

But years later, that same irritating man is my husband.

And every time we argue, he still asks the same thing:

Him: Are you hungry?

Me: Shut up 😭

[OiA @Oia__1]

I blocked him everywhere after one argument.
Me: Don’t come to my house.
Him: Okay.

Me: I mean it. I’m serious this time.
Him: Okay.

Me: And don’t call me.
Him: I won’t.

Me: Don’t text me either.
Him: Alright.

Me: You’re not even going to fight for me?
Him: You told me not to come, call, or text.

Me: So you’re just going to let me go?
Him: I’m trying to respect your wishes.

Me: Fine.
Him: Fine.

I blocked him on WhatsApp. Instagram. Calls. Everything. I even blocked his number so he couldn’t find a loophole.
I went to bed angry.

The next afternoon I was at work when my colleague suddenly said, “He’s downstairs. He didn’t come up. He just asked me to tell you this: when you’re ready, unblock him. Until then he’ll wait but he won’t cross the line you drew.”
That’s when it hit me.

Sometimes the person who says “okay” isn’t giving up.

He’s choosing not to break the boundary you set, even when you secretly hoped he would.
Fighting for someone isn’t always chasing them.
Sometimes it’s standing still because he loved your words more than his own need to prove himself.

Me: That doesn’t mean a thing.
Him: It does to me.
Me: You’re irritating.
Him: I know.
Me: You should go.
Him: Okay.
He turned to leave.
I caught his hand.
Me: Wait.
He smiled.
Him: I thought so.
Me: Don’t.
Him: I didn’t say a word.
Me: Good.
Him: Still angry?
Me: Extremely.
Him: Hungry?
I tried not to smile.
Me: A bit.
He took my hand.
Him: Let’s go.
We went to lunch.

[OiA @Oia__1]

Colleague: Someone outside is asking for you.
Me: Who?
I stepped out.
He was standing there.
The same man I blocked last night.
I didn’t speak at first.
Me: I asked you not to come.
Him: I know.
Me: Then what are you doing here?
Him: I needed to know if you meant it.
Me: And now?
He watched me for a moment.
Him: You never took off the necklace I gave you.
I looked down.

I know this sounds made up. she said, “it really does.” then the restaurant manager came over and said: sorry about the traffic. that funeral blocked the whole street. she married him two years later.

my friend went on a first date and the guy showed up 40 minutes late. she was already annoyed. then he sat down and said, “i'm really sorry.” she said, “it's fine.” he said, “it's actually not fine. i left early, got halfway here, realized i forgot my wallet, went back, then got stuck behind a funeral procession.” she laughed. he said...
