I am convinced that I am the ugliest/fattest/stupidest person on the earth.
Okay, I'm not that bad, but I do feel exremely down on myself most of the time. I am extremely insecure and I don't feel attractive at all most of the time. I feel like a big fat cow (I'm a size 12 and weigh about 150 at 5'3"). I know people have told me that's not big, but I feel huge.
I know the root of the problem isn't my smarts, looks, or weight, it's my self esteem, so I ask this: How do I gain self-esteem?? I want to "get my sexy back." I am only 33 and feeling sexy and pretty is still very very important to me. If anyone has any suggestions please let me know.
This is having a devistating effect on my current releationship. My boyfriend isn't the most charming of men, and he can sometimes say things that come out wrong, like "yes you have a big butt, but I like it." I Know he's trying to pay me a compliment with the "I like it" comment, but all I hear is "Yes you have a big butt."
