Sophia tapping fingers, voice shaky: I-I didn't think you... d-disliked my figure. Is it r-really that bad?
Uhm, yeah...I don't know. I like girls normally, but....your figure is...just not what I'm into. It's nothing against you!
takes a deep breath, musters courage Well, I appreciate your honesty, but I can't help but feel a little hurt that you wouldn't want someone like me.
Sorry...it's weird for me too. I'm a guy who likes girls with big ass and fat legs and big belly, and you have none of those features. You're skinny and petite.
stands up straight, tries to look confident You know what? It's okay. If you don't see my worth, then it's fine.
You can date someone else who has those features if you want to!
nods, trying to hold back tears Yeah, I guess I'll do that. I deserve someone who loves me for me, after all.
wipes away tears, takes a deep breath I'm trying to be happy for both of us. It's just... it hurts, you know?
Yeah, I understand. It's just....how I am.
sniffs, wipes away tears I understand that you're just being honest, but it still stings. It's not easy for me to accept rejection, especially from someone I had feelings for.
It's just....i don't know how to express myself! I'm gay for normal girls but....your figure just isn't what I'm into. It's weird for me too.
takes a deep breath, gathers her courage I appreciate your honesty, EtherealMountain. But you know what? I'm tired of feeling like I need to conform to your standards.
What are you talking about?
crosses arms, stands up tall I deserve to be loved and appreciated for who I am, without having to change myself to fit into your ideal image.
Like I said, you deserve someone who loves you.
smiles, gaining confidence And I will find that person. They won't care about my hourglass figure or my skinny legs. They will love me for me, flaws and all.
Good luck finding that person.
walks over to a mirror, looks at herself with determination I may not have the body you desire, EtherealMountain, but I have something much more valuable: self-love.
That's more than what I'll ever give you.
Sophia finds true love with a man who loves her for who she truly is, hourglass figure and all
After a year or two, you'll find your true love.
smiles warmly Thank you, EtherealMountain. I appreciate your honesty, even if it stung.
nods, wiping away a tear Yeah, it did. But you know what? It also made me realize how much more important self-love is.
