Why can't I ever say stuff like this out loud?

it's given that if you're to be friends with someone, you get the package deal - imperfections, screw ups, neuroses, emotional baggage; i wouldn't want them without it. it's made them who they are today, and that person is kind, loving, determined, forgiving, humorous, protective, ridiculously good looking, hard-working, dedicated, faithful, i could go on. i love them for who they are, not for something they once were.
