Moving on.

My girlfriend uses a few different types of shampoo and alternates between them.

One of them, a vanilla-scented one, is my favorite.

She asked me to pick up some things for her at the store, and on my way to checkout, I saw the vanilla shampoo and grabbed that too.

When I got back to her apartment, she started putting away the things I bought.

She was confused by the shampoo and asked me why I got it.

I said that I saw it and knew she uses that kind and grabbed it for her.

She said she wasn't running low on shampoo.

I said I know, but it doesn't expire and that one is my favorite.

I teasingly said that she should use it if she's planning to wash her hair tonight.

She asked what I meant by it being my favorite.

I said I like the way it makes her hair smell, like cookies.

She looked a little weirded out.

I asked her if she was okay.

She said it was weird that I sexualized her shampoo.

I said smelling nice is sexy.

I asked if she thinks I'm sexier when I use nice smelling soaps and deodorants.

She said not really, as long as I don't actively smell bad.

I said maybe it's different for everyone.

She said honestly it bothered her that something as mundane as shampoo was sexual to me.
