“You’d better not say shit.” I poked a finger at his chest.

I hate her

“Put an ad on Craigslist. Hope the guy doesn’t end up being some kind of pervert out to kill me to sell my organs on the black market.” I snorted.

Not funny

Brandon and I had spent a year together in Iraq.

Firefighter AND military?!?!?? Girl don’t bother.

Nothing offended me except for cauliflower and stupidity.

I actually can’t stand her I’m so sorry

“Stuntman can go anywhere. He’s wearing clothes. He’s not a dog—he’s an accessory.”

People like this make me so angry

“There’s something you should know about me, Josh. I say what I think. I don’t have a coy bone in my body. Yes, you’re sexy. Enjoy the compliment because you won’t always like what I say to you, and I won’t care one way or the other if you do or don’t.”

Shes not like other girls! Shes cool and sexy and has no social awareness

And if I had to get bossed around, I’d rather it be by her any day.

Someone get this man a dom

Tyler didn’t ride a motorcycle. He didn’t hunt. Didn’t care for poker. Preferred an expensive glass of wine to whiskey or beer. Liked theater over movies. Brandon and he had very little to discuss the one time they met except for the Marine Corps, and Tyler’s job was so specialized they couldn’t even really connect on that front.

Justice for my king tyler

Besides, women like that are too much work. The better looking they are, the crazier they are.”

i wish men didnt speak

What I had sitting next to me was the “cool girl.” That rare woman who was gorgeous without being nuts. The girl in high school who hung out with all the guys, but she never dated any of them because none of them was mature enough for her. That girl who had a boyfriend who went to college and picked her up in his car after school. She could beat you at beer pong and had a football team who would kick your ass for saying one wrong word to her, but she’d never let them because she could handle herself.

I would rather stab my eyeballs with rusting forks than be this girl
