If you truly love someone, you will cherish what they despise most about themselves" - Fernando Conclaves

About This Quote

If you truly love someone, you will cherish what they despise most about themselves. It is because of these imperfections that we fall in love with them. They are who they are and we love them for it. We don’t try to change them into someone else because then it is not them that we would be in love with anymore, but merely an idea of who they should be.
