A female United Kingdom age 36-40, anonymous writes:

This is kinda awkward 2 ask without sounding totally full of myself, but here goes. I have really big boobs, which i hate by the way, and my friends boyfriends always comment on. It makes me uncomfortable. They kinda look fake because im slim. They are 34e. My best friends boyfriend keeps texting me and coming on to me, i just reply by talking about my boyfriend and his girlfriend. I dont think im iresistable or anything! Im just a pair of boobs to everyone. I have a twin sister and they try it on with her too, her nickname is lizzybust!! Girls give me dirty looks if i even talk to their bfs, a friend in work has started being so nasty to me since we went out together with her bf around town. My bfs friends have tried it on too, he doesn't speak to 1 anymore. He started telling me my bf had cheated and all sorts just so we could get together. I hate people doing this to me all the time and i don't know what to do about my best friend! Should i tell her that her boyfriends a slimeball? Should i get a breast reduction? Why are men so obsessed with boobs! I hate it.

Be pround of your large breasts. Other girls are jealous of you, and boys who tease you just want a chance to look at your breasts without feeling guilty. Make the most of your great asset. Wear tight sweaters, and at other times show losts of cleavage. Every girl wants to be like you, and the boys dream about you.

BigSis agony auntI'm sorry to hear you're being teased about your size, it's an invasion of your confidence, I know, but you will just have to be strong and ignore their remarks. They are childish and their stupidity just goes to prove that they're not your friends at all. If I were you I'd shrug them off and make some new mates.

One of my sisters is having her breasts reduced, she's 46 yrs old, fairly tall, well built ~ but not fat, poor thing feels she's all out of proportion.

Her reason for having them reduced was because they were so large and heavy they were actually causing her to have neck and back pain. She's been on the NHS waiting list for a couple of years now. Compared to her boobs, yours are small, believe me.

You can just imagine how big they got when she was breast feeding her two children. It's a miracle how she never fell over.

Have confidence in yourself and ignore them petty remarks.

Be happy hon.

Wait until you are 18......because that is when you stop growing.......and because that is when you are out of school and boys stop being big jerks. Well, not completely but they do act somewhat better. If you still can't stand it, get the reduction. Just remember, if you have them taken down a bit, you may not get the attention anymore and if your boyfriend looks at another woman with bigger boobs than you, you will wonder if you made a mistake.

Do it for you, no one else. It doesn't matter what other people think.

If you do decide to get a breast reduction, do it for yourself and not because you want to impress someone else. Do it to make yourself happy. A word of caution, I would talk to a series of board certified plastic surgeons, get the British medical association to recommend someone, and I would make sure to make an informed decision. Going "under the knife" can affect your ability to breast feed your children should you want children. Ahhh yes, there is a procedure called tumescent liposuction, and I'm not sure if you would be a candidate but I would ask your dr. about it.

Lol! I know not all men are and other women do get hit on, i know i aint the only 1! I guess some people think people with big boobs are easy, some guys just come up and touch em for no reason! I guess i don't like that bit about it. I just wish my collegue would stop being in a mood with me.

LazyGuy agony auntWe are not, some of us are. Why do all women go for guys who are talk dark and handsome? Do you know how much trouble that gives guys like me?.... I will try again when you stopped laughing.

Yes I get that you got a problem and you certainly wouldn't be the first woman to get a breast size change because she feels bad with what she got but do remember that it IS surgery and it doesn't always go well.

Be very careful thinking a knife can change your life. Do you really think only big titted women get hit on? Talk to a shrink before you talk to a surgeon is my advice. Not because you are nuts but sometimes we just need someone we can tell everything to and get things in perspective.

I know what you mean- i am always getting comments on my breasts and I am not exactly large either. It really is up to you, because these girls are just jealous because you get all the guys going. I would pay no attention to these girls and take all the remarks as compliments.

It's really up to you. Here's a website for all the information on breast reduction surgery.

Well, every girl is jealous of somebody they think they cannot compete with. Don't take that in a bad way, people can't always be pleased and the best thing is just to not try to please everyone.

For the breast reduction DO NOT get it if you are just doing it to look different. Do it for you not for others. If you are having physical problems from them then yes I would say do it. But keep in mind that if you are planning on having children and/or breast feeding then you will need to wait untill after to get it done as their are complications. I would recommend checking out this site http://www.ljcsc.com/articles/considering_breast_reduction.html

As for the guys coming on to you, you sound like your nice... maybe to nice. Tell them straight out to take a hike. Stand your ground. Be yourself. My girlfriend also wants to get reduction she is a 28 DD and also skinny. I told her the same thing.

Personally if I had a choice I would tell her no, but its not my choice and I respect her judgement.

Best of luck to you.
