glasses
I've worn contacts during the day, every day, for about 3 or 4 years now. I only wear my glasses at night, when i take my contacts out. But I have an infection in my eyes and I cannot wear my contacts anymore. It may sound like a ridiculous question, but I have honestly noticed I get way more attention without glasses (not to sound all snobby) and ever since I have had to wear them lately, people give me strange looks. I'm not saying I care what everyone thinks, but everywhere I go I just feel weird, simply because I am not used to glasses at all. My question is, for those of you who wear glasses or anything, how do you make it appear that your not like insecure, like I dont want to seem as if since I have glasses that I am self conscience? Also, where I work I have a lot of friends (hot, guy friends :P)and I just honestly dont feel as pretty anymore. Please dont answer my question and just go on and on about how shallow I may be sounding, I dont mean any of this rudely or dissing people with glasses. They are just not for me and hard to get used to. Thank you tons in advance!

I had the EXACT same problem a couple weekends ago. One of my contacts was defective and I was out of town so I couldn't change it so I had to wear my glasses everywhere and we went a bunch of places. I HATE MY GLASSES. I felt insecure but eventually I just forgot about them and when you forget about them, you can't feel insecure. So don't worry too much about them and just be like you would when you have contacts on :)

Hey
I wear glasses too. =D
Don't worry, I feel the same way. Glasses are just not my thing. But here's how I just forget about them. I just focus on something else. Keeping focus on something else (like work) will take my mind off of it and just be me. Right now, you are insecure about yourself. Just relax! BE YOURSELF!!! just laugh and have a good time. Trust me, it feels like everyone is staring at you... but they're not. Forget about it and leave it in the past. Keep reminding yourself that you have more important things to pay attention to.
You may not imagine this, but some guys are attractided to women with glasses. tell yourself that! Maybe that one special hottie who works with you, secretly loves you even more since you are wearing glasses. who knows??? CHANGE IS A GOOD THING!! Don't tell yourself that you aren't pretty enough and that you are insecure. Instead, tell yourself that you are the most beautiful women on the planet and that you are couragous enough to take a risk and wear glasses out in the real world.
Have Courage in yourself!

Ah, I used to have glasses and when I finally got contacts, I thought the exact same thing-- so if you're shallow, I am too.
My only advice to you is to possibly get some cute, new frames and just continue to dress cute. Fix your hair nicely, paint your nails-- and act like absolutely nothing is different.
People will get over it with time, they just aren't used to this side of you. :]
