Should i be trying to hide my smile when talking to girls?
Question Posted Sunday September 25 2011, 2:32 pm
I have braces and my teeth are straight but one side hasnt come down all the way. I always try to hide my smile when i am talking to girls and even when i see the girl i like in the hallway she always wants to walk with me but if i walk past her i try to make her not see me just because i am so self conscious about my braces. I just feel like my girl game in general has gone down. when i was in middle school i talked to tons of girls even though my teeth were messed up i wasnt really self conscious maybe because everyone else had them.so i just laughed and smiled and talked to everyone with ease. the girl i liked has straight teeth so its nervewracking. any adive?

I had braces for 4 years when I was in high school I can understand the self conscious thing because I wouldn't eat lunch in front of other people. Now that I look back on it, It was a ridiculous thing to worry about. Lets face it, It sucks having braces but you definitely aren't the only one in the world to have them. If someone doesn't like you because you have braces, Then they are the ones with the problem. People should never judge someone based on their looks anyway and braces are such a small minor thing. Smile and be yourself that is what it should be about plus the damn things come off in a few years anyway. Don't sweat it [ Xui's advice column | Ask Xui A Question ]
