"You deserve better" "He's too weird" "I don't like him" "Your parents don't even like him" "You're too young to know what love is" I DONT CARE! I'm not perfect, he treats me like it. I'm weird too. I don't care if anyone else likes him. My parents like 3 of my friends, out of at least 15. Love is not numbered, there is no handbook to tell you what age to fall in love or what age is okay. He makes me happy, listens when I'm speaking, respectful when I mess up and apologize. He knows my traumas, what triggers them, apologizes if he triggers anything. He talks to me like a friend, but treats me like his world. And once he messed up EXTREMELY, but I forgave him. He came back after letting me process with a genuine apology saying he didn't expect me to trust him, that he wanted to EARN his way back into trust. I love him. Im obsessed. But I'm proud, and for the 1st time in 6 years, I'm truly happy. And I'm so tired of people telling me to just leave him like that is so easy. So, so tired.
