‘I used to give my girlfriend a hard time about her skin care routine, not like harshly just joking.

Then she gave me a facial, and now I’m nearly 40 and my skin has never been so moisturised and clear as her bed time routine also involves her doing a skin care routine on me while I dramatically claim that I hate it.’

‘My husband likes to razz me for occasionally starting a trashy reality show. He will be nearby but not watching. Then a few nights later he’ll ask “Love is Blind tonight?” And I’ll say “No, I’m not feeling it,” and the look of disappointment on his face is so cute. Then he’ll try to save face and be like “good!” Lmaoooo you messy king.’
