PostSecret: I Wouldn’t Bother
This postcard showed up on PostSecret today. I feel like giving this girl a big hug.
Stop trying to lose weight to get a boyfriend. Just stop it. You deserve love right now, just as you are. There is probably someone who loves you right now. He is hiding in the wings, wondering what to do. Quit wasting time trying to make yourself fit into a hole that wasn’t made for you and go find him.
Eat healthy. Move around. Find love. Quit starving yourself.
PostSecret‘s beneficiary is the National Hopeline Network. It is a 24-hour hotline (1 (800) SUICIDE) for anyone who is thinking about suicide or knows someone who is considering it.

Laura,
Thank you for turning me on to PostSecret. It’s become a regular site for me to check every week. Now and then, one of them strikes me close to home. I’ve even considered writing a postcard myself.

I did get my dream husband at a very high weight. Maybe she hides behind the weight so she doesn’t have to have a boyfriend.
