Here’s what I’ve learned, and what I still believe deeply: Love doesn’t thrive on having it all figured out.It...

Hey Reader, What do you want? Someone who loves you for exactly who you are. And then what do you do? Act nothing like yourself. And then what do you get? Someone who thinks they know you.
