Girl overhears boyfriend defending her to his friend and melts

A girl posts about her boyfriend, who has a reputation for being a player — apparently dated 10 different girls in a single year before her. One day she walked past him talking to his friend, and overheard the friend ask 'how many months has this one been?' (implying she's just another fling). Her boyfriend immediately got annoyed and snapped back: 'Don't you dare say her name, you crazy b**ch. You don't need to worry — I NEED to be with her.'

She says it's nothing huge, but her heart fluttered. Her boyfriend is apparently known in their grade as the classic 'loner-type bad boy' — someone who becomes whiny and helpless without her, which she admits is a little weird to admit she finds cute. Then yesterday he randomly called her crying, 'I love you, I really love you, please don't leave me' — and she says it was both incredibly sweet AND a little heartbreaking to hear.
