| | loops's profile:Hello I'm loops, I'm almost 21 and I come from England.
Despite my young age I have had a lot of experiences with many of the problems that turn up on this site. I have been in an abusive relationship, experienced cheating, problems with boyfriends with depression and weird ways, ex's being constantly on the scene, and children from previous relationships, which makes me more than qualified to offer advice out!
I am studying Psychology and am currently in a relationship with someone ive been on and off with for a few years now. |
