I want to look like paul mccartney

I'm obsessed with looking like the young Paul McCartney.

Don't ask me why, I don't understand it either. It's bizarre. I mean, even the real Paul Mccartney doesn't look like the young Paul McCartney anymore...

But I feel so depressed every time I look in the mirror and realize that I don't really look like him. It's like getting punched in the gut. Sometimes I take pictures of myself and compare them to ones of him... I fantasize about getting a haircut like his and people calling me Paul Mccartney. I just like looking at his face, his clothes, his attitude... I just feel drawn to him for some reason. I just like looking at him and imaging that it's me.

It's not like I'm some weird obsessive maniac or anything... I have a fairly normal, though lonely life. I have a loving family, I'm fairly young and I have my whole life ahead of me.

But for years I have been very depressed, and... I just want to be this man so badly. You have no idea how badly. But I'd never get plastic surgery, that would be ridiculously creepy. I just wish I understood my feelings.. I have tried ignoring them, but it's too strong. I hope it'll just go away. I'm too embarrassed to tell anyone about it, not even a therapist.

So yeah, I'm just a generally normal teenage girl... who secretly wants to be Paul McCartney. *shrug*

    I think young McCartney had a very unique & attractive face and wouldn't worry over the fact that you, as a young woman, quite appreciate that aesthetic. It is kind of sweet.

    I love Paul McCartney! <3333 I think it's pretty normal that you wanna look like him because he's an inspirational person. That goes for everyone not just musicians! :D I'd wanna look like him too but I just can't pull off short hair , Lol

    Wow, it's like you literally stole my thoughts. I seriously thought I was the only person in the world that obsessed over looking like Paul McCartney. I have taken photos of myself and compared them to him heaps, dressed up like him and everyday I put my makeup on in a way to make me look a little bit more like him. It's actually starting to get on my mums nerves. I read to her what you posted and she just looked at me like she'd witnessed some sort of messed up miracle. I get depressed sometimes because I feel so alienated when it comes to other teenagers around me but this post is really reassuring. I seriously wish I could put in words how much I understand. But I am still sort of happy that I'm not your average 15 year old girl. It would be the biggest privilege ever to know you. This comment has gotten ridiculously long, so seeing as I do the exact same thing as you.. yes, it's absolutely, coincidentally normal. Wow, just wow.

    I am the same way about wanting to look like young paul...I also want to look like brian wilson of the beach boys during the pet sounds/smile era..both of them were so cool ...musical geniuses with such cool appearances ...very cute faces and haircuts..yeah and I'm a 21 year old girl. I wake up every morning and look at pictures of them on google images ..and I get all weird staring at my face trying to figure out if i'm attractive or not..and have been going through a major despairing depression thing

    Billy Joe Armstrong looks like young Paul :)

    And Billy's talent of giving birth to great melodies is almost equal to Paul's talent, IMHO

    I don't think he was very good looking. If that's what makes you happy go for it.

    Man, I DO look like one.. I look like my dad who looked like damn young paul mccartney. I even have brown hair and hazel eyes. It's misearable because whenever I want to do some nice feminine makeup, those stupid surprised rounded eyebrows give me away. =( Don't get me wrong, I LOVE Beatles,, but i wish I looked more "discrete" instead of resembling someone. I nearly have an identity crisis because of this. At one point I liked it, as a teenager, but then it quickly gets old. Trust me, you don't want that. Having a unique face is the best thing ever.
