i have had braces for three years and im still going to have them a year and a half longer.
so, the problem is, every time i meet a guy, a good looking one that i like, i immediately just assume that he is soooo "out of my league." and it basicly all boils down to the fact that i have braces. i just feel like he'll look at me and feel like "i could never kiss her!" im very self concious about them. and the weird thing is, i like my body, i like my personality, i like my skin, my hair, all that stuff. i am confident that i am very friendly and like-able. its just that when im in a public place, and i want to talk to a hot guy i see, i feel like theres no way that he'll have the same feeling of seeing a pretty girl when he sees me- just because i have braces.
so i feel like i always have to hook people with my personality, or by being funny, which is fine, since its good that i just want to be myself and not be popular because im good looking. but i cant help but feel jealous of the girls who can grab hot guys just because they're a hot girl.
Hey,my name is Faith42 and I think I can help
You can't help it that you have braces I wear
braces to if a guy is so caught up with having
every girl looking perfect they have a problem
(LOL).I felt self concious to when I got my
braces thats all I thought about if guys would
care and not like me and some won't care and
some will you just have to let it roll off
your back and be yourselve. If you be yourselve
a good guy that don't care how you look will come along.
I hope I helped

thanks.
but its not about guys who have outrageous ideals of perfect girls, i mean, it sortof is, which is a little hypocritical of me because i consider myself a feminist... wait a sec that didn't make any sense.
ahh. what im saying is- when i meet a guy for the first time. like im sitting at a party and i notice a cute guy not talking to anyone. well, my first instict would be to go talk to him, and since ive determined hes pretty good looking, maybe ill flirt a little. obviously, my intentions here are to make a new aquaintence or somone that is "a little more than a friend." but i mean thats what I'M doing. but i feel like when i go over there, and say hi, hes going to look at me and not get the same immediate thought when he looks at me as when i looked at him. this is hard to explain but do you see what i mean? i look at him, and think, "cute boy, go talk to him." he looks at me and thinks, "who is this?" not, "cute girl talking to me, woo hoo!"
its not that hes necicarily "caught uo with having every girl look perfect" its just that hes not interested in my not-equally-stunning looks.
so basicly, theres nothing i can do about a guy looking at me and thinking "braces." you cant change what people think to themselves. ill just have to find a guy that isn't caught up in that kind of stuff. wow. you're advice helped me solve my own problem. and i just explained it to you all. seriously that was like stream-of-concious typing. amazingness. thanks a bunch. seriously.
