Q: Im 16/f and I do not get the whole fascination with dressing up, lots of makeup, dying hair etc. Like all the girls at my school are starting to wear these pretty dresses and doing their hair and they all look so beautiful..but its like i dont give a shit about any of that. Ive always been decent looking without doing a whole lot so i never really got into fashion or lots of makeup..I would like to tbh. Today i tried doing a smokey eye, and it kinda looked like shit lol. And i also tried looking up skirts and dresses that i could buy and they were all ugly and expensive. And all that stuff seems like a lot of work to keep up looking really nice everyday. I just dont get it, why is it so important? To feel good about yourself, sure but why else? I like looking nice but at the end of the day it doesnt really matter.. i dont wanna spend so much time on something that wont really get me anywhere and idk i just dont get it.
Us girls love to feel pretty. We love the attention that dressing a certain way can get us. Especially from guys. But honestly it is best to not get too involved in transforming ourselves everyday. You're right, it takes a lot of time to appear 'nice' everyday and tbh I believe its better to know that you're comfortable being yourself. I would rather surprise people on special occasions and have them see what sexiness I am capable of... lol.. than have them see me at a party and go ehh she already wore that last week at school or ehh she looks the same as always. L o l and anyways people get used to seeing a 'pretty' faceful of makeup and once they see that girl without makeup its like whoa you're not that pretty. L o l i dont know if you understand me but thats how I feel. Hope that helps!

No I do understand you and youre right it would be better just to show off on occasion so people can really be like damn how you doin lolol. So yeah thank you for the advice.
