Asking Quote by Jasmine Laura
“If you're going to ask if I'm okay then I say yes, and then say I'm not then don't fucking ask! It pisses me off so much. If you're going to ask if I'm okay, most of the time I'll lie to you and if you can obviously tell I'm not okay,then whats the point in asking. To waste your breath? Yeah,no. Nonono.”
