Mark Darcy

The other day I was watching Bridget Jones' Diary, the first one, and towards the middle of the movie Mark Darcy tells Bridget he loves her just the way she is.

I adore this line.

To me the only thing you can ask someone to love you for, is for that exact reason.

We all have our little bad habits and things that we try and hide from the one we care for so they don't get turned off and leave, we all try to look our best for them so they don't think we are some hideous creature, even if we have just woken up. But to be loved for everything you do, everything you look like and such, is the only thing one can ask for. We want to be able to be ourselves and not have to hide or fake who we are, and by having someone love us 'just the way we are' makes everything that little bit easier, and then creates more happiness.

Thank you Mark Darcy for loving Bridget just the way she is.

It's the only thing she (and we) could have asked for.
