Is it normal i want to be fat because i don't want to look good?

I know how weird this will sound, but ever since I was a kid I received too much attention, especially from my relatives, because of how cute I was, everyone was like '' awww what a pretty nose '' and I grew up knowing I was good-looking, but as time went by I started hating being good-looking. I'm an aspie, and I also suffer from BDD, I hated the extra attention ( sometimes even from guys who complimented me way too much ) and as a BDD sufferer I always felt the pressure of looking-good. I just thought that putting on weight would solve the problem: the fat on my face hides my facial features and I don't look good anymore, no pressure of being good-looking all the time and no extra attention... my cousin always says that I should slim down again because '' it's sad to see a guy like you let himself go so fast ''

she was also physically attracted to me when I was fit.. but I feel more confident now that I'm fat. Why do I suffer from BDD? I think my facial features are way too feminine and '' soft '' for a guy, I don't like how I look.

    I feel the same way sometimes, but don't let yourself become unhealthy. Instead have fun with it with costume makeup by adding scars to your face, noticeable boils, or make it seem like your teeth are super yellow. It's amusing to see how people react, because our world is heavily depended on appearances no matter how nice you are personality wise. Even buy a fat suit if you want or padding to make your belly look big. Think of it as Dressing Down instead of up, with that you can still be healthy without all the attention. I know how silly this idea sounds lol

      it's not a bad idea, and good timing too, how much fun would it be to pretend everyday was Halloween.

    I understand that the pressure to look perfect is super demanding, but you should not force yourself to gain weight. Being overweight is extremely unhealthy and leads to countless medical issues! Being overweight shortens your life span and damages your brain. Please take care of yourself 💕😊
