About This Quote

Do you want to be my powwow paradise? This phrase is often spoken in a tone of endearment. It is used when talking about a special person you love, or when someone asks if you would like to be in a relationship. It's not nearly as romantic as "I love you" but it's simple and can convey the same level of meaning.
