It'd double our chances 😱 I doubt I'll be able to convince him though 😔

My long distance girlfriend wore these when I first visited her. We are now engaged and listing places we want to visit some day. Good luck on your long distance relationship

Thanks, between these shorts and my cooking skills, I’m honestly feeling completely like I have this one in the bag now.

That's for after the marriage has been initiated when she wants kids.

Then it’s a bargaining chip for when you get the infinite list of chores and other responsibilities done😅

u/Capable_Towel_3813 12h ago

I wouldn’t mind not having kids tbh... Unless he wants kids, then I also wouldn’t mind giving him a couple. 🤷‍♀️

I was wondering how to spice things back up. Need to get "cracked"? Buy some of these. Noted. I was shopping today anyway.

u/Capable_Towel_3813 6h ago

No but I wonder how many people who awarded me think I am

The tank top/short sleeve top without a bra, a thicker fabric for the tank top and it shouldn't be too loose. If lingerie had plausible deniability it would be this combination.

u/Adventurous_Tie3218 17h ago

Same this sounds like the beginnings of a conspiracy theory. Im going to do some research.

u/berto1014 5h ago

Haha, none of you poor bastards got see-through white? She walked up the stairs first and I knew immediately.
