Is it normal that i wish constantly that i was this other girl?

im normally an ambitous girl, confident and sociable but, my boyfirned and i split up in feb, i was heartbroken and he'd left me for someone else but he turned up at my door a month later with flowers, and a love letter and in tears andd a few weeks later we got back together (i didn't give in easy). He finihsed me for this other girl but now i dont even associate the girl and the boyfriend together and that though dosnt bother me, but i wish i was this girl so badly, shes beautifull and rich and always looks so happy and full of personality and theres not even a celeb id rather be, i often find myself wishing i was her and it getting a bit weird where im actually feeling depressed that im not her... its not the fact that he left me for her i dont think about that anymore and im over that... i just still wish i was her, since i started thinking this i have found nothing to say to people about myself, cant look in the mirror and be thankfull of what i see even though im an average person thats not disgusting, i keep finding thing i hate myself, this isnt normalll and i no youll all click the no its not button but i just wondered if anyone was in the same boat or if anyone had advice?

Is It Normal?

  • No woman wants to be herself! I feel the same way. Have you noticed how every woman with curly hair wants straight hair! And every woman with straight hair wants curly hair. And the girl who you were talking about has to feel sad sometimes. Just be happy to be yourself.

  • Yeah, she may look like she has a perfect life, but there's no way you could be happy all the time or look good all the time. She has flaws. She has worries and woes. You need to understand that being you is what makes you different. It SO much better than being perfect. Your awesome and you know it. She may be too, but no more than you are! Be happy

  • Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, looks fade, money goes away and every happy person is sad sometimes. You sound like a very young girl so I think this is a very temporary thing and will pass quickly so no real advice is needed and this will all go away when you get a new person to make you feel good about yourself again.

    Its like clockwork unless of course this drags on for too long to which I would then suggest seeing a doctor for the happy pills
