My last SO made a comment to me soon after we were together, and it changed how I look at love. I have a rather large scar at the top of my ass crack from having a pilonidal cyst removed years ago. The first time she saw it she said "That's cute." "What?" "Your scar." After disagreeing with her she said:

"It's the imperfections that make us perfect to someone."

That hit me so hard, I fell in love with her instantly. I have tons of imperfections (as we all do), and I have man boobs and was always self conscious. She always told me she loved my chest and would play with my nipples all the time when we watched tv in bed.

Damn I loved that girl. Still do. What's ironic is she left me for a Vicodin/methadone addiction-- her imperfection. I never judged and always encouraged her. I understood and empathized. I would have to the end of my days. But she chose that over me.

What she left me with, that I CAN be loved DESPITE how I might perceive myself, is the best gift I ever received.

I sure miss her. 6 months now and still trying to move on. Ugg.

Watched Straight Into Darkness tonight based on your recommendation and really enjoyed it. What a big movie in a small frame. Thanks u/willicaroline

Thank you very much.
