BEFORE YOU START CALLING ME NAMES, I WANT TO MAKE IT PERFECTLY CLEAR THAT I DON'T POINT OUT PEOPLE'S FLAWS OUTLOUD! NO OTHER PEOPLE CAN HEAR MY COMMENTS, WHICH DOESN'T MAKE IT RIGHT OR BETTER BUT I JUST WANTED TO CLEAR UP THAT POINT. Now please read on. I recently asked the question "Am I shallow?" becuz I point out other people's flaws and the answer that I picked as the best answer made me realize WHY I do it. I do it to try and feel better about myself. Like I think to myself, well at least I don't have all those zits on my face. I wanna stop thinking this way and doing this becuz I know it's not a positive way to make myself feel better. I'm very critical about my own looks. I hate my hair, my nose (I even had a nose job to "fix" it and I still don't like it). So I tend to pick out what I consider to be "flaws" in other people, ("flaws" that I don't have) to try and feel better about myself. I want to stop doing that. How can I positively feel better about myself?
