Don’t Need to Paint My Toenails
Country music lyrics about illicit love & a broken heart
Don’t need to paint my toenails don’t need to shave my legs don’t need to trim my bikini line ain’t nobody gonna see
he left me for his other woman left me for his family my baby he done gone back home ain’t nobody gonna see
don’t need to put on lipstick don’t need to wear perfume don’t need to curl my blondie locks ain’t nobody gonna see
he left me for his other woman he left me for his family my baby he done gone back home ain’t nobody gonna see
don’t need to paint my toenails don’t need to shave my legs don’t need to trim my bikini line ain’t nobody gonna see
he left me for his other woman he left me for his family my baby he done gone back home ain’t nobody gonna see

Author’s note: If you’ve never had an affair with a married man, take my advice and don’t. It might be fun, flattering, exciting, hot—all those things and more—but it never ends well.
Besides, who would want a relationship with a man who cheats? Go figure.
But logic isn’t always at play when our brains become flooded with hormones. It’s a like a spell cast upon us: his musk, his touch, his kiss, that connection—real or imagined—found at last!
But it’s bogus. We all know that. Trust me. I’ve done the research. The pain and wanting are not worth the momentary pleasure.
I doubt if anyone listens to messages like this, because when it hits us in the face, we will find it irresistible, we’ll kid ourselves about its future, and we’ll get sucked into that vortex once again, only to be spun out on the other side, broken and bleeding and vowing to never do it again.
So, when you find someone with whom you feel that “chemistry,” beware. It’s called chemistry for a reason! They call it “Total Eclipse of the Brain.”
LUST: Testosterone, estrogen—increased libido
ATTRACTION: Dopamine, norepinephrine, serotonin—“reward” chemicals
ATTACHMENT: Oxytocin, vasopressin—bonding chemicals
This paper explains it very well:
Bottom line? If you want those lust hormones to scramble your brain momentarily, get a dildo. If you want cuddles and attachment, get a puppy. I highly recommend a Shih Tzu. They love cuddles and they crave your touches. And they’ll never break your heart or be untrue. And you’ll never have to share them with someone else.
If none of this works for you, maybe you should find a good hypnotist:
Finally, if you succumb in spite of it all, here’s how it will end:
