when i entered high school i was horrified to learn that i was expected to change in front of other people in the locker room. i was worried about what other people would think of my body which to me was imperfect. i soon found out that i wasn't the only one, many of my friends were self conscious about their bodies too. whether it was their weight, curves, knees etc. i was particularly self conscious about my freckles, they would just crowd up my face and i hated them, i will admit i got a lot of good comments from friends, family and boys, but i always felt they were lying to me. i eventually learnt to love and accept my freckles as they are a unique part of who i am. i'm still accepting my appearance as i am still a junior high school student. girls need to remember they are beautiful in many ways, no matter what people say ignore them, even if the haters and the bitches are nicer to look at then you are, you definitely have a beautiful heart. if your worried about guys not finding you attractive, calm down, there will always be a wonderful guy or girl out there that will love you for who you are. you just need to give it time. loving your body might sound hard but you just need to do these simple things:
1: banish "the other woman"- is there another person in your head telling you negative thoughts? that's the "other woman", you need to banish her for good. it might take some time but try hard.
2: dance - can't we all agree that dancing makes us feel good?
3: give yourself compliments - when your looking in the mirror next time point out all the things you like about your body, feel proud of them and compliment the things you don't like as much. over time you'll feel a lot better about yourself.
"you say you know what love is, but darling you've never loved yourself"
