Question - (18 March 2011) 1 Answers - (Newest, 21 March 2011)
A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I feel like my ex's new girlfriend looks better than me. Even though my ex liked me for all of these reasons:

1. my style was different then most girls - uggs/northface/polos

2. My style was more girlie

3. I was confident

4. And i would accessorize with jewelry and different colors and he liked that i was into fashion.

5. And i worked out so my body was amazing

6. My dark brown hair

But now his new girlfriend

1. Trys to dress like me her style has definitely gotten more girlie

2. Is confident=something i feel like i've been lacking because of the break-up

3. But her body isnt as good looking.

4. She doesnt have dark brown hair its a dirty blonde almost

I will never understand why he is with her from what i hear they have a bad relationship and we've been broken up for a while but the main thing is when i look at her i think theres something wrong with me even though she lacks all a lot of things that i have.I feel like i look the same since we've broken up and havent really done anything new with my style. And im finding one thing she has that i used to is...confidence. How do i get it back?

And does anyone have any tips on changing your style? I know this can definitely help in terms of just feeling good about yourself while getting your ex to notice you at the same time i dont want him back but i do want him to look at me and say WOW what was i thinking!? Anyone know some hairstyles changes or something that i can do to make me stand-out and also boost my confidence!?

Thanks for the help!

dirtball agony auntYou know what's going to help your confidence more than any make over? Realizing you don't need your ex in your life and that he made the worst mistake of his life in breaking up with you.

You shouldn't compare yourself to other people. All that does is show how much confidence you lack. Instead, be your own person, like you were before. If you open your eyes, I'm sure you'll realize that much better guys are taking notice of you.

Put your ex in the rear view where he belongs.
