Just one more pound and I'll be perfect.But my friend Jake tells me I want all the wrong things. He thinks I'm already perfect.Did I mention he was my best friend's brother? How about the fact that he's had a crush on me since we were kids?So, when I start spiraling in a deadly game of self-acceptance, it is Jake who's there to catch me when I fall.Can he be the one to pull me back from the edge?
