and i thought i cared but i dont. and too much time together makes me want to hurt you.

you know what's more intimidating than their obsession with jessica simpson or carmen electra? their love for natalie portman. who you can't hate. whose got that natural beauty thing going on. yes, thats right, i still remember your natalie portman obsession. sad right?

but it sticks with you. no, i dont care that you fantasize over some sex symbol that i am glad i'm not. i care when you see the good in people. when you love the natural. reject the fake. and when you like the great girls. the ones i cant get myself to hate.
