Thank you.

I am also upset because of a comment my partner made a week ago. (They have their own mental issues, so they often say things that seem appropriate to their self, but hurt other people's feelings). They said I was a 9/10 (looks) and I was horribly hurt by this. To me, being in love means you find your lover to be the most beautiful person to you. I asked why they don't think I'm perfect, and they responded by saying no one is perfect, and that everyone has room for improvement. They believe it's harmful to act as though you can never improve yourself (I understand this from every point of view besides physical appearance).

Their comment really hurt me, because I think they look perfect. I have body image issues, so I'm not sure if I'm just taking this personally...or if it was a mean thing for them to say.

Nonetheless, it's stuck in my mind. 9 out of 10...imperfect...
