Posted by Anonymous on 2013/07/12 under Uncategorized I am very insecure, very shy, and do not like myself at all. I realized that no one can love me. because even I can’t love me. I am scared to let myself go and I have a super low self esteem. I want to be perfect all the time and it never works out that way. I have come to the point of really hating myself over it. I am 16 and have never had one boy like me at all. Never kissed a boy. Never held hands. Never been to a school dance. I feel left out of everything. And the people that say, “try to be more outgoing! Guys like really outgoing girls!” do not understand me. I have social anxiety. A disorder. I worry about everyone judging me. So it is not possible to just become outgoing.
I really like the proverb “The man who thinks he can do something and the man who thinks he can’t, are both usually right”. If you think that it is not possible for you to become outgoing, then I believe you. But it’s only because your mindset is like that. That aside, I can assure you that there are guys out there who like shy, silent, socially secluded girls, me being one of them.
Anonymous, I know we usually want someone else to accept us, before we can accept ourselves, but it rarely happens that way. Usually it is the other way around. I really hope you learn to love yourself.
Love yourself. You are beautiful. You are amazing. You are pretty. You don’t need makeup. You are outgoing. You are imperfectly perfect with your perfections. Love yourself. “Love yourself as much as you want to be loved” You are amazing.
You are beautiful. <3
