And then I saw him and nothing was ever the same again.
The sky was never the same colour, the moon never the same shape: the air never smelt the same, food never tasted the same. Every word I knew changed its meaning, everything that once was stable and firm became as insubstantial as a puff of wind, and every puff of wind became a solid thing that I could feel and touch.

Moab Is My Washpot - Stephen Fry (via thatquote) This is likely the most beautiful expression of love that I have ever read. (via michelleaugust) |
I read this post and it makes me so sad. It breaks my heart to hear that from someone. Beauty is not something quantifiable in "likes." I went to a small high school. I never had guys that held me, kissed me or dated me. Even in college I went on a handful of dates. I had similar feelings to this gal. Then I found my husband. He thinks I'm beautiful. I found that it doesn't matter if the world thinks your beautiful. It matters that my love thinks I'm beautiful. It matters that I think I'm beautiful.

me: im ugly
friends: no you're not
me: I AM UGLY and that's a fact. guys don't add me on facebook and like my pictures, they don't ask for my number, i get 5 text a day, one from my dad, two from my mom, one from the phone company and another one from some girl in my class asking me if there's something for tomorrow. guys don't text me saying 'goodmorning beautiful' or just even saying 'hi whats up?' if i have any guy friends they're one maybe two. you guys DO get texts, boys flirt with you, you're always complaining about boys, when nobody ever calls me pretty. you guys get a compliment at least twice a day, boys play with your hair, kiss your cheek, hold you from behind, and i'm just there watching, and if any boy wants to talk to me it's because they want me to give them something, or to call me bad names. i don't have 120 likes on my profile picture, i'm scared of doing a party because i know i would't have any guy friends to invite. is it because i don't let anyone know me? NO, it's because i don't look good. why all the pretty girls out there are full of 'guy friends'? don't tell me because they're the best people ever because it ain't true. my teeth are not stunning, i don't like my smile, i'm insecure af, my eyes have nothing special and i don't even have the best body. i know i have my natural beauty and i like some things about myself, but i just wanna look atractive, loook at the mirror and find myself pretty, good-looking, and i know 'i'm beautiful' on the inside but society is a btich and ends up making everyone feels less than they are. so yes, i feel ugly, i am ugly, and don't tell me i'm not because i am.
