To the first boy to show me my actual self worth: First off, thank you. Thank you for showing me that all other people, who tried to show me what their idea of my self worth is, was incorrect. Thank you for calling me beautiful when I’m sick, cuddling your chest with the sniffles, 8 in the morning hungover with a mirgraine, or laying in bed with at least two chins without showering that day.
