My bff is so annoying sometimes. Recently she keeps talking about hers and other people's bodies. She'll say things like "this shirt makes me look flat" or "she has no boobs" like girl we are litterally children (14), who cares 😐 I was looking at swim suits with my mom and I saw one I liked but she said I shouldn't get that one because it would make me look flat. Who am I supposed to be impressing at the pool? Pedos???
I wish my friend would stop talking about it because it makes me think too much. She's prettier than me. She has nice straight hair but mine is just frizzy and weird and I can't do any with it. I just put it up all the time. I also don't like my face for many reasons. I want a different one 🙄 I could keep complaining (I have more things I hate about myself) but it's 1 am so I should sleep
How can I feel pretty? I want real advice. Ugh. I'm glad we can wear masks

ReplyHey girl!
You don't need to set beauty standards to feel pretty . It all comes when you accept yourself as you are and be confident in yourself that you are beautiful. Talking about boobs and all, it does make you look good but look at your age , just 14 ? If i compare myself to a boy at that age , you won't find a difference even in voice. Just create your own definiton. because what you have got is just yours.
PS- I literally look like a nerd with black glasses on my nose but I am beautiful.
Reason - Because This is me
ReplyThere's no guarantees in life. But if you're 14, you're yet to go through so many changes, physical and mental, that most certainly will change you radically. Look at pictures of beautiful Hollywood actors and actresses... when they were teenagers. I bet whatever you want that in a minute you'll realize you're prettier than many of them. And sure, they have money and professional makeup and surgeries and whatnot, but that can only account for so much. And even if you don't become 'prettier' per se, whatever that means in your demographic, maybe you'll learn to like yourself as you are. Also, style, elegance, charm, education, politeness and a thousand other things matter, not everything if about faces or breasts, no matter how much you friend fret about it. Btw, I'm sure she's just as insecure as you, she's just either hides it better, or straight up lies. And I bet there's things in you personality or body she's jealous of, but of course she wouldn't mention it. Which is why you must look with your own eyes at things, not through other people's. Oh, and people will always say you must love yourself, as I'm saying myself, but also, don't understimate the power of taking care of yourself, with higyene, a little makeup (but don't abuse it, especially at such young age, ask about that to older women you trust), nice clothes - not expensive ones, this is a culture to suck money from the simpletons, but find something that works for you. As for your mother, it's a shame she says things like "you'll look flat" but believe me, she's just trying to look out for you, always respect her but try to talk about that with her, if makes you feel uncomfortable. Dialogue and honesty are miraculous, just takes some courage to start. And maybe look for friends which ideas are more compatible with yours, never settle for anyone in any kind of relationship. Seek your happiness your way. You don't deserve it more than anyone I suppose, but then it follows that you don't deserve it any less, the trick is to be proactive and do your own stuff. And when you are old enough or feel old enough to care about boys, believe me, confidence trumps beauty 50% of the time, because half the boys are just too dumb. I know my thoughts wander a bit but maybe re-read this and you'll find at least a couple of ideas that could resonate with you. Do your thing, girl!
