apologies in advance for telling you
the sweetest damn thing you'll hear all day
but if you get extra sleepy
when you're around your partner
it's because your body is chemically bonded to them
being near them releases serotonin and dopamine
which relaxes your nervous system so much it makes you tired
your body is literally telling you
I'm so safe right now I could fall asleep
