Oh my god. So I was dating this spunk head, that's the most vital part to understand. He began as a good friend and also I fucked him and afterwards we were started dating. And also it was among those circumstances that you read about where he entirely simply changed. When he became my guy I saw this entire jealous side, this upset side.

So we chose a penis candle.
