"Forget all of them. **** them. They don't know who you are and who you've become and how you feel. You really like him, yeah? Then go for it, because he really likes you too. I can see how much you care for him when he's around and when you talk about him, so that must count for something. Enjoy this feeling and let this happen, because the both of you deserve the best, and I know that y'all are for one another."
You have no idea how much this meant to me...thank you so so so much.
