Hi. So I’m a 16 yo girl and I hate my face. In the mirror it looks quite normal, sometimes even pretty, but then I remember that people does not see me like I see myself in the mirror. They see me in « back camera », inverted. And I feel like my face is just…wrong? One of my eyes is smaller, my lips always seem to « smirk » on one side and my face just feels really uneven, asymmetrical.
Sometimes, I literally feel it, my eye being smaller, my lips, my face, its horrible. Everytime that I feel a little pretty I remember that’s not how I actually look like and my real look is bad, and it makes me feel so shitty.
My friends, and some boys have told me before that they found me pretty, but I don’t understand them. I know it sounds weird. I don’t especially think they lied, but I just can’t believe it, not when they are so pretty and I’m me.
I wouldn’t say it’s ruining my life, but it’s definitely ruining my self perception and giving me a hard time accepting myself.
I don’t know if anyone knows how to make it stop or whatever, but I really wanted to share my mind with people who won’t immediately answer « no you’re pretty ». Thank you for reading, have a nice day/time🫶🏼
