Out Of Your Clothes

Out Of Your Clothes I do think it extremely important that you feel good in your clothes That's why I only wear them once unless its been a really nice day that I want to remember, in which case I keep them on But after two days, at the latest, I'll put on something fresh
The older you get. From about eighteen, I'd say... its important to take care of your clothes properly I'm thirty three now, and I actually spend more and more time on it It's really increasing and it simply does me good I went through a phase where I slacked off a bit but since then
I've realized how important it is and I can enjoy my spare time much better because I feel good That's important and that's why I don't mind it taking time Sometimes that's also a problem, the time I mean especially with a partner becauseit does take up my time
It's unpleasant to tell him that I can't see him because I have to do my laundry. A lot of people don't understand it and I realize that it matters more to me than to other people But to me it is important and at a certain point you have to choose your priorities My boyfriends always wanted to spend much more time with me
which was always a problem. Because I found it far too much And I think you lost interest then With one guy I got the impression that he was jealous of my laundry which of course is completely absurd And he got at me about it so much that it really annoyed me
Although it started out being out being nice with him Another boyfriend I had was only interested in me Because he thought I was a good housewife and he even went so far as to say that this was the only reason for men to be interested in me
I'm still not sure if it was meant to be a compliment or not And the stupid thing about it that Its not even true My apartment, for example, looks like a mess I mean, I simply don't have the time to tidy up I don't get around to it. I'm pretty
At a carton point you choose your priorities and you know what is good for you, what is important And tidying is just always at the bottom of my list My mother says that men take a good look before they make their choice
And says if this is the way things look at my house I will never get a husband I admit my apartment does look a bit makeshift Most of the furniture I found on the street and there is no bed just a futon lying on the floor. That drives my father crazy he says my place looks worse than in the war
He tends to exaggeration and he always wants to give me money so I can buy a bed I spend a lot of money on other things though I've got a lot of mechanical gear. I 've got a TV set, a video recorder a computer, a color printer, a scanner...
