Im very selfconcious about how i look, im a cheerleader but im a shy person. i dont really think im pretty but people say that i am. i get jelious wen my boyfriend hangs out with his friends that are girls becuase they are really pretty, he says theyre not his type but theyre very good looking. i just want to have more self confidnce but im not sure on how to go on about that.
Oh god. Men are always looking for the next best thing, and they all think they can get away with cheating. Life sucks like that. You are right to be concerned. Personally though, i think one has to relinquish control and hope they chose the right men for the right reasons. Even if our partners aren't perfect, they must be willing to chnage and grow. I'm so happy I'm not dating 16-21 year old anymore. Oh thank god. Thank you god.
I think the cheerleader types were always the most insecure ones. Totally normal.
This is like the exact same story of my life. Over the past year I have been talking to newer people and branching out in making friends, and it has really helped. Just hang in there, because it will get better.
I know where you're coming from =/ It sucks to feel self conscious (and it sucks when the boyfriends have a bunch of attractive friends that are chicks lol)
But hey I think it helps when you know yourself: look at yourself and just make note of what looks good on you. =) Now, don't be picky.
Listen to what your buddies say is nice looking about yourself and be open-minded ;) see what they mean!!
Have you tried dressing up? I remember in middle school i was so petite I rarely felt comfortable, but taking pics in my room (just find good poses for your body/face type) ...it was pretty therapeutic!
Also, it's good to realize this is pretty natural to feel competitive with appearance in today's society.
Hope that helps
You didn't say how old you were, or what year you were in school.
I think that you are not alone in your problem, and that it is not all that unusual to be self conscious about yourself in general.
Is there something in particular that makes you feel self conscious?
If you would like to talk about this, I may be able to help you with your feelings.
I have had feelings like that as well, and was able to get over them.
If you want to talk about your feelings, and how you can feel better about yourself, I would be happy to talk with you about the feelings you are having.
I am sure everything will be alright.
Bye.
hi , i think i sometimes have this obcession about myself , but believe me no body will help u in such a situation coz self-confidence is what you get by yourself, don't expect people will give it to you , you are the one who can have it and regain it once it's lost . so , i think you have to work on that and confide in yourself and you will come up with good results . Coz, confidence may hinder you from progress in every aspect of your life , but if you think it over a bit , i think it 's easy to get confidence . My wishes .
