Ok, there's this girl I like but I don't know if I should ask her out. There are some things about myself holding me back.

I think I'm a decent looking guy. I got some muscle and I'm in good shape. However my body is nowhere near perfect. I have pimples on my back and my chest (some on my face but not much), I have some stretch marks because I used to be fat, and my nipples are bigger than average.

I've been treating my marks and pimples....marks have cleared up a bit, but I can't seem to get rid of these pimples. I shower 2-3 times a day, use cream and pills all that but it won't go away.

Its damaged my self esteem and has made me very hesitent to ask this girl out.

So what I'm asking is........would you accept this guy? I want honest answers here.....I don't really care if your answer makes me feel good/bad

You need to accept yourself. Nobody is perfect. Give it a try. we all have been rejected and remember that there are plenty of people who will like/love you. What counts is that you have a good heart, and spirit. Best wishes.

First of all I would like to congratulate you on your weight loss. It takes a lot of motivation and effort to lose weight and build up the muscles in your body.

Are you a teenager by any chance? Maybe that's why you are experiencing a lot of pimples. That will eventually go away in time. I know that your self esteem is low because of that but you just gotta look at the positive side. I'm sure you had very low self esteem when you were overweight but you were able to lose the pounds. Same thing with your pimples. Just keep treating them and they will eventually go away for good.

So to answer your question I would accept you as a person. Looks aren't everything and you have to be a shallow person to believe that they are. You seem like you have a great personality...which is a big plus for girls. You just have to believe that its whats inside that counts. And if that girl can't see that then its her loss.

I would just build up your confidence and ask the girl out. Whats the worse that can happen? She might reject you but you will still survive. There are way more girls out there that you will meet between now and in the future.

Good luck!!!!!

If you are a nice guy that shows respect and treats a girl like a princess so to speak then it's not the looks that matter, the pimples will clear up eventually and the marks will fade. If all a girl is interested in is looks then she's not worth it.

I married a man with some pimples. It's not a big deal.

I still get pimples, too. You don't see women with their shirts off before you decide if you want to date them. Would a few zits scare you off?

No human is perfect. The only perfect human to ever live wound up crucified, so I'm okay with my imperfections.

You have to love yourself, though, before you can love another. If you're not convinced that you're a good man with a lot to offer, how can you convince a woman? You need to feel good about your good traits, and understand that something as "skin-deep" as pimples is not a basis for character judgement. Pimples aren't permanent-- they will go away. Having a terrible personality doesn't go away that easily.

So, if a good man has pimples, it doesn't make him less desirable to anyone who takes the time to KNOW him. :)

As for your back/chest zits, have you tried liquid erythromycin? It's really good, I used to use it for back zits myself. I wound up needing accutane to clear up my severe acne, but even now I break out. I accept that, though, and realize that having pimples doesn't change heart, or feelings. Good luck to you.

Relax!! You'll be fine. If the girl is really caught up in physical appearances, shes probably isn't someone you'd want to date anyway!! Id also suggest laying off a bit on the showers, you could be washing away your skins natural oils and therefore doing more harm than good. Please remember that no-one is flawless and even the top supermodels have their photos airbrushed. When you find the girl for you these things will be irrelevant....Best of luck to you and I truly hope you find true love!!

Jeez, are you serious?? Yeah, of course, if I like a guy a few pimples are no big deal... In fact I like it if a guy has a few imperfections of some kind; if a guy is "perfect" then I feel a little uncomfortable! A few pimples are no big deal at all, seriously.

you will definitely come across many people throughout life that are shallow and will find any way they can to criticize how you look...but there are girls out there that really are worth having that realize that they are not perfect either. if you like someone, let them know...the worst thing is not knowing what might have been. if they turn out to be one of those shallow people, then you know straight out they were not worth having in the first place:)

that may be such a cliche' answer, but its the truth.

yes i would, if you had a great personality, and you treat women nice you bet i would. you know what we are our own worst enemy the acne is secondary believe me we are not that harsh. congrats on the weight loss and trying to improve the condition. please get it into your head you are very worthy of companionship and if you don't ask you never will get an answer. we all have flaws look at it that way we all have flaws keep that always in mind.
just a tip, next time you visit your doctor ask him/her for tetrocycolene taken for three months or longer should clear your skin right up. just a suggestion but yes please ask someone out!

A good product to use for acne is Proactive. It really works. Me personally, I don't think it matters a whole lot what a person looks like on the outside, it's what kind of person they are on the inside.
