Get the Mercatores mug.A kind, generous, loving, loyal, and appreciative girl. Meryan is one of the most supportive friends I've ever met. I could tell her anything and she won't say a thing to anyone! Meryan is the best listener when you want her to be. Even through the most painful of times, she will get back up and walk on. People can say all the shit they want and have instant karma for messing with the wrong girl! She's very considerate about everything. Meryan is so perfect that she's a person everyone would wanna be. Im so grateful for a friend like her.
