beauty-of-imperfection: idolnessofgods: shedreamsof-paradise: So relevant I learned some people don’t want to stick around with someone who doesn’t believe they’re beautiful, cause when you’re so self conscious, you are a horrible monster at times Horrible? Maybe. (A horrible) monster? I don’t think so. Yes, having someone be so self-conscious all the time makes them less fun to be around because, in a way, they seem like a Debbie Downer. But feeling self-conscious and acting/voicing those feelings out do not make those people a horrible monster..at least not in my opinion. I feel self-conscious quite often, and even more so in some moments. I tell my parents that I look big in that picture or that I’m too skinny in that or that I’m eating too much and I should stop, etc. Does that make me a horrible monster? I’m a Debbie Downer. I have low self-esteem. I care way too much about my appearance. And I feel upset at myself for being so. But does that make me a horrible monster? Does being like that make any one? Hardly. Monsters imply evil/ugliness/freak. I hardly think that people who self-conscious - which is a human thing to feel - are any of those things. Sorry for the long rant. I just feel very uncomfortable about this subject, since I’ve heard it a few times before.
