Kindle Notes & Highlights
Unapologetic Lavinia Stan: But I’m not looking to be fixed. I want to be loved and liked and desired not because of my size, not despite my size, but because I’m ME. My character, my choices, my words. Each time someone I care about shows they don’t care about me that same way, it hurts. It hurts more than I can easily express. Unapologetic Lavinia Stan: So this ship, this community, is important to me. It’s reassurance that better things are possible for me, and better relationships, and even real, abiding, passionate love. Not because of my size, not despite my size, but because I’m me.
Sometimes they blundered because their personal histories hadn’t taught them to be sensitive to certain issues. And sometimes they blundered because— Sometimes they blundered because they had trust issues. Major trust issues.
I love your body. I’m not going anywhere.
“I don’t think forgiveness is something that can be owed.”
No matter what happens between us now, you should know that you’re loved. Even if you don’t forgive me.”
Please tell me people who look like us can be loved. Please tell me people who look like us can be desired. Please tell me people who look like us can have happy endings.
