Amidst the clamor, one always seeks a quiet corner; amidst the bustle, one always yearns for a moment of serenity. Tangled threads remain untangled, yet the lively Spring Festival has finally passed. Farewell to greasy feasts—return to me a taste of simplicity.
You've gained weight again—that's the annoying refrain after the holidays. Beloved pants no longer fit, and favorite dresses show a hint of distortion. Annoyed, I think: diet, diet, diet...
Beautiful women remain beautiful because they never overlook a single exquisite detail.I don't worship skinny women, nor do I look down on curvy ones. From a man's perspective, I've always believed women should be soft and supple. Too thin women can only be goddesses, like figures from paintings. Of course, I don't agree with being too fat either, but I can't change this trend of worshipping thinness. I just want to tell women that men don't truly prefer skinny women.
Being slim doesn't mean you need to diet; it's just that women who love beauty won't tolerate a single flaw. And dieting doesn't mean eating blandly; it's just that we've grown tired of greasy foods.
