I am more than meets the eye. I am more than a 5-foot-3, brown hair, brown eyed girl. I am more than my waist size, more than my bra size, more than my dress size. I am not just a body to stare at, to judge. I am more.
I have more to offer than just my appearance. I've been known to tell a joke or two, and I've been known to laugh at some. I will do everything I can to take care of you when you're sick, even if I'm far away. I will listen to your problems, and likely try to cheer you up or give you so-so advice. Because I am more than just a body.
I work hard, have career aspirations, dream of traveling the world, and have likes and dislikes. Because I am more than just the number on my clothing tags or how my face looks.
I have met guys who only want me because my bra size is what they consider "perfect" or because they think I'm "easy." I have met guys who only want one thing and care about nothing more.
But I am more.
We are all more.
Each and every one of us has more to offer than just our bodies and our appearances. We all have stories to tell, knowledge to share, and things to say. We all have things that we like, and things that we don't like. There are little things that make each of us who we are. Things that are more than what meets the eye.
I don't mind when I'm told I'm pretty. I don't mind being told when I look good in that dress. But I can promise you that I am more than that.
Compliment my smarts, my humor, my caring nature. Compliment me on my talents, my ambition, my use of emojis. Compliment me on the things that make me who I am.
Because I am more than meets the eye.
