Ugh, I almost fell victim to this idea in my late teens and very early 20s. I was fat; what right did I have to expect, well, anything from a partner? I should just be grateful anyone wanted me.

Then I woke up and realized that was BS. A couple of years later I met the man who would become my husband and we’ve been together almost 2 decades.
