As you've probably noticed on social media this week, it's prom season. That means teens and their dates are dressing to the nines, taking the classic prom pics we all remember and sharing them online with their friends.
For one teen, her happy day could have taken a wrong turn, but she and her date made sure not to let it put a damper on things.
When Tre Booker and his girlfriend Madison took their adorable photos, Madison shared them on Twitter, even calling him the love of her life.
Although the two looked dapper in their matching rose pink ensembles, Madison received an unkind response to the photos from someone she didn't even know.

"Wow he loves you even though you're fat," the stranger wrote.
Obviously, not cool. Even though fat-shaming will never be OK, people somehow still feel the need to harass others about their weight — but that didn't mean Madison and Tre were about to let it ruin their fun day.
We're giving major props to Madison for keeping her cool, but Tre's response is just as sweet.
Your not fat baby 💯God made you just for me . Your perfect 💍 https://t.co/945h5obl2L

"God made you just for me," he wrote. "You're perfect."
After that award-winning tweet, the cute couple received tons of positive comments. Madison even wrote a response thanking her well-wishers.

We absolutely love the way this couple (and their friends and strangers) handled the ugly words thrown at them. Madison's kindness and confidence is a great example to other young girls struggling with hurtful words from bullies.
