@@CoreyMJones3 That lake is beautiful. I'm a nature girl.. I love the "lame" stuff. (Statistically speaking) Lol I agree, very peaceful indeed. I live in Dallas and we have a place out here In FB called City in the park. It has a botanical garden. Most beautiful thing I've ever seen..lol...Lake... Park.... Grills. A entire trail through the woods. It's dope.. And u silly 😆 no disrespect. I agree with your statements in the beginning about when a woman ask you what are you looking for in her/one.... I started to feel the same way with men, at one point I USE (it's clear now) to ask myself like Self? Yea self.... Is you tripping?? Lol But no it's real. You speak these things and then idk if it's subconsciously or consciously, intentional or unintentionally done but it does happen....I just watch how someone moves now instead of speaking. I'll give you what u need to know where we stand but I'm observing. When I feel comfortable then I'll spill the tea.....
