There are a lot of things about me that aren't what you thought. But if you love me, you have to love all the things about me.

What it means
Our interpretation.
The speaker acknowledges a gap between another person's expectations and who she is. Love is then made a demand for acceptance of the whole person. The repetition of 'things about me' emphasizes that affection cannot simply select the parts that fit an earlier image.
