The Art of Smooth Talking as Seen Through Facebook

You might be wondering, why am I sitting here alone, perfectly capable of treating a woman right and treating her to all of the Star Wars-references that every girl deserves? It’s probably because you don’t have the smooth moves of this guy. Ladies like to hear sexy talk, and they like it in said in the most unimaginative and least ...

Romance in the Days of Facebook

This is the best you can expect ladies. So romantic. If her and her fiancee ever meet, I’m sure they’ll live happily ever after.
