My friends low esteem
My friend is always feeling really bad about herself. Were only 14 but she thinks that there is something wrong with her because she has never been asked out or had a real boyfriend. She's always jealous of other people. I keep telling her that she can't focus on what everybody else has that she doesn't or what other people can do better than her. I try to tell her that there are so many good things about her, but she won't listen. It's frustrating to me because I want her to see what everybody else sees, a funny, creative, beautiful girl. I told her to stop feeling sorry for herself. What do I do to make her feel better about herself? How can I help her to love herself?

If she wont listen to you then what makes you think she would listen now? Tell her to just be her self she doesn't have to have a boy firend. Most boys are dogs but not all of them are not like that. I think she would be better off. She will find some thing good about her self. Try taking her skating. The happier she is the better she will feel about her self.

I know exactly how this girl feels. I have an INCREDBLY low self esteem and I always find fault in myself and I find it really hard to take a compliment. Sound familiar? What I'd do if I was you, is take her on a shopping trip and get her to try on stuff that she wouldn't usually wear and things like that. Make sure you compliment her on her choices but be honest if something doesn't look right only don't be too harsh. OR. You could go to a beauty parlour together and get your nails/hair/make up done together. Once she sees herself in a new light, she'll be more happy with herself. I promise this will work. Keep me posted. xxx
