To be honest, sometimes I feel like just another fuck buddy.

Divine is she who tends the garden
of our Earthy mother, whose bosom
lends a supple perch for darkened
fruits, ripe enough to seed blossoms
upon the nourished soil her toes pace.

Upon her bountiful breast rest
a bushel of golden wheat, carried
with the utmost care, like a babe prest
upon his mother’s heart to be cherished
until the time he’s age enough to grow

alone. Gaia, their young mouths press
to the soggy soil your hands till
and care for. Here, they are refreshed
in your shadow– their roots sit still
for you, who intimately lives with rain.

I’m a commitment. I’ll be committed to you and promise to make you the first person I care about if you’ll do the same for me. I’m not a fling. I will not be that “1 month girlfriend” or that “3 month girlfriend” or even that “5 month girlfriend.” If you’re looking for that, go pay a long-term prostitute.

I will do things for you, buy things for you, cook for you, hug you, kiss you, love you, and make you feel wanted. But, only if you’ll do the same for me. If you start ignoring me, I’ll start ignoring you. If you start to take me for granted, I’ll start taking you for granted. It’s monkey see, monkey do and it has nothing to do with how I am, it is how nature works. Psychology proves this is how little kids learn.

I’m not the girl who will sit there by the phone and wait for you to call me whenever you feel like you’re done doing whatever you’re done with. I won’t be that kind of girlfriend and I’ll certainly not be that kind of wife. So make a choice. I’m not going to be number two so you if want me, you better damn make sure that I’m number one. That’s what I deserve since it’s what I’m willing to give in return. You better start thinking as “us” instead of being selfish and thinking of “I.”

Dr. Jeffrey Benabio: ”No. Oily skin is healthy skin.

Your skin’s main function is to protect you. Skin goes to great expense to produce natural oils to keep moisture in and irritants out. Soaps and shampoos can strip good oil off, making skin dry, irritated and unhealthy. To prevent this, especially during dry, winter months:

* Choose skin cleansers instead of soaps.
* Apply a moisturizer everyday after showering.
* Eat foods high in healthy oils such as walnuts and salmon to provide the raw materials for your skin to make its own oils.

If your skin is too oily on your face or back, then use acne treatments such as salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide to help reduce the oil. Remember, overusing acne treatments or scrubs leads to irritation which can cause your skin to produce even more oil to try to protect itself.

And when you’re feeling frustrated with your shiny face, just know that people with oily skin always look younger and develop fewer wrinkles as they age. “

I think the best video to explain what I’m thinking is: 
Wong Fu Production’s: “Strangers, again”

What I’m talking about is stage four, comfortable (according to the video). As quoted by the movie character Josh, “Being comfortable isn’t necessarily bad, its when we can truly be ourselves. But it depends on what you do with that comfort. Some use it positively, continuing to work at their relationship, and grow together. But others allow it to create distance.” I can’t help but wonder if Mystery Man and I are using our comfortable stage to grow positively into ourselves? Do we help each other grow?

Another quote from the video that keep me thinking are these simple lines: “Whether it’s taking each other for granted or people changing over time, bottom line is someone stops trying and the feelings aren’t as strong as before.”

In my opinion, it’s very true. If he/she is REALLY into you and REALLY believes that YOU are the right one, they will make time for you, they will wait for you, they will be there. It’s the bottom line.
