How do you say the following in Spanish?

You're worth it.

I'm worth it.
(I don't know if it's yo valgo, lo valgo, me valgo.....)

I can't stop thinking about you.
(this stumps me because there are 3 verbs so I don't know what gets conjugated and what stays as in infinitive.)

I like it hot.
(yes, as in caliente). hehe. Since there's an "it" in the english version of this sentence I'm not sure how it translates to Spanish.

Thank you!

To be a proper "voseo", it should have a tilde in "merecés".

Thank you!

So then I'm worth it is - Lo valgo?

I would have thought "about you" would be "de ti" does it change to "en ti" so de doesn't become repetitious after parar de pensar..... ?

Yo soy digno; tu eres digno
yo valgo I think you mean valioso
Yo soy valioso does not work but it work as el anillo es valioso ,the ring is costly
I heard valgo use as me vale (it does not matter to me) me vale is a nasty expresion
If used as me valgo- it could mean two things I value myself or I can do it by myself
No dejo de pensar en ti. no puedo parar de pensar en ti (is akward in my opinion)

Me gusta caliente (it is implied)

it's tu vales o vales la pena.

it's valgo la pena o yo lo valgo depending on context..

no puedo parar de pensar en ti.

(I'm fluent, native speaker, self-taught-not schooled, so I'm not sure what you mean about what verbs are conj. or inf., but this is how you say it.)

Me gusta lo caliente.

You would never hear a Spanish-speaking person say, "me gusta caliente." "caliente What'" I like Hot? I like Heat?

Boy this gets confusing. But so interesting how many different ways Spanish is spoken! Is there anyone here who's a native of Mexico who can tell me how to say these 3 lines?

You're worth it.

I can't stop thinking about you.

I like it hot.

It sure sounds funny to my gringo ear. To me, "me gusta caliente" sounds like "I like hot," which isn't really a complete sentence.

"I like it hot" usually means "I like hot weather," so I would say "Me gusta el calor" or "Me gusta cuando hace calor." It could also mean "I like my food spicy," in which case it would be something like "Me gusta lo picante" or "Me gusta que sea picante."
