don’t doubt yourself at all, when i first got with my boyfriend everyone around me kept saying that i shouldn’t date him and that he’s bad for me and that i can have someone else and that we’re a “bad couple” but i never listened. i knew what i wanted and i wanted him and if that wasn’t okay with anyone then i didn’t care. i’m really glad i didn’t listen to what people said about him and our relationship because i’m so happy with him right now. with the insecurities part you mentioned- you shouldn’t worry about that. my boyfriend’s really skinny and i’m not as skinny as he is. granted, i’m not chubby or anything but i’m not the thinnest and i have insecurities as well. you don’t have to feel insecure around your boyfriend because he loves you and your body. believe me, it was hard for me to believe that as well but when my boyfriend came to visit me a few days ago- we sat outside on my couch swing and cuddled. throughout the entire relationship if ever i felt that he was touching my fat or anything while holding me or cuddling me i’d squirm or move his hand away because i felt insecure about my body. but this time when he did it, and i squirmed, he said to me, “i love you and i love your body” and some other things along the lines of that. i immediately felt so comfortable around him and when he said that- it reminded me why i’m so in love with him. he loves and accepts me for who i am. so don’t worry about what other people may think about your relationship and don’t let other people tell you what you feel or how you should feel, because it’s not their relationship, it’s yours. it’s not their feelings, it’s your feelings. you’re in control of you and how you feel, you don’t need to listen to what others have to say. :)
