Ribs, are you actually my bf writing in disguise?? Kidding. Really, though, that's almost exactly what he says to me when I bring this stuff up. Maybe it's true, I don't know... but it didn't used to be true. I don't want to bring up the past, but it used to be such a non-given thing that we said it all the time, and meant it. Somewhere along the line it became a given for him, but I still wanted to hear it just as much. I wish I didn't need constant affirmation, I really wish that. It kills me when I get like this... and believe me, I am working on it as much as possible. But it never seems to go away, and that really gets to me.
