Something special

So recently I've been told... as corny as this sounds... that I'm a treasure. Or something along those lines. It was actually quite textbook as to what a girl wants to hear. Unfortunately it came from someone who isn't actually ready for the relationship, nevertheless it made me feel... like a treasure. I always knew this person cared about me more than a lot of people and I knew he had feelings for me, but I never knew he respected me and held me in that high of a regard. I was flattered when he said it. I suppose I should have known, but I didn't. It actually brought tears to my eyes because I think it was/is the nicest thing anyone could ever say to me. It had nothing to do with my looks, it was about the feeling that they felt for me. That I must have done something so special for them to think of me as a treasure. I think because the word 'love' is so overused these days that having that person call me a treasure was something completely different and equally as amazing. I dunno, it kind of left me beaming.
The reason that I say it had nothing to do with looks is because SO much is based on a person's looks and for someone to complement what's under my hideous looks, it just felt great! One night stands are always based on looks, be it that you might be tipsy and the looks are improved, they're still based on how the other person looks. Guys always seem to think that a girl wants to be told she's hot, pretty or has a nice smile. But I personally could care less, I would prefer if a guy was like, "Wow, I think you're so nice." {haha, guess maybe if I was nice this might happen?} But don't get me wrong...for all you guys out there, ya girls do care about being told they're pretty, BUT as far as I know... it's just as important to have thier personality complemented. When someone tells me I'm sweet, or funny, or have a cute laugh it feels twice as good as someone telling me I'm hot. Correct me if I'm wrong here...
Anyway, someone thinks I'm a treasure =) so yippee!!
