The only thing these ladies love more than finding the perfect pair of heels on sale is encouraging you to freak out about the inconsistency of your libido, despite your rational understanding that no one you'd ever want to date would expect you to be some kind of perpetually charged-up sex robot, and that you're allowed to have fluctuating desires, so it's not worth getting as upset about as you are right now!
