&amp; ultimately, he&#039;s going to find out: how you <br /> chew, how you sip, how you hum, how you dance, <br /> how you smell at every point in the day. The fact that <br /> most of your friends are shallow. That you hate <br /> sitting in an aisle seat, how you sometimes can&#039;t <br /> seem to listen, how you get hyper when you travel, <br /> how certain games or shows make you really happy, <br /> how you get cranky because you&#039;re too stupid to <br /> remember to sleep, how you don&#039;t like the way you look<br /> in most of your pictures, how you can&#039;t get off the <br /> phone when it&#039;s late, because you don&#039;t want to sound <br /> like you care, how you have no ability to save receipts. <br /> He&#039;s going to know all of it; everything about you, <br /> he&#039;s going to know. &amp; he&#039;s still going to love you.
