Question - (25 September 2008) 1 Answers - (Newest, 25 September 2008)
A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Ok i have a serious confidence issue.It started a few years ago.I feel that if people look at me for longer than a few secconds that they think somethings wrong with me.Or are looking at my flaws or something and i really hate that feeling.I know that it's vertually impossable for every one to think the same thing about me in the way that i think that they do.But it's become a habbit of me to think that.Also if a guy i liked were to come up to me or any guy really and say that he likes me i just wouldn't believe them.

I kind of keep myself in a shell when it comes to boys.I can't talk to any guy i like so they just won't talk to me.And if i do manage to say something which is rare it's probably just one word answers.I just don't think that i'm good enough really.I think that all of this started when i started to have blemishes i lost any confidence and self worth then and there.I still suffer with them but there not half as bad as they used to be.Sounds like a stupid reason dosen't it?I just want to forget about my skin but i'm reminded every time i look in the mirror.I just want to deal with this problem so that i can rebuild my confidence and get on with my life.If you can help with any of these issues please do.

tammye17 agony auntyour young and probaly deal with a lot of pressure as a young teenage girl....iam pretty sure your beautiful, if guys go up to you and try to talk to you. dont put yourself down, look yourself in the mirro and see you beauty. what you feel in the inside reflects in the outside, remember. if it makes you feel better, go shopping, buy yourself a cute outfit, do your hair, get a pedicure or a manicure. but remember theres nothing like your confidence, and if is about blemishes, theres treatment for it. hope you feel better.
