Do you think when people say they "try to look good for themselves only" are basically lying?

Question

Seriously, I don't buy that for a second. I'm sorry.

Answer 1

Well .. i think when one looks good she/he does good. for instance, if you wake up ad look in the mirror and you wear your best clothing and know that you look good, your mood and self esteem sky rockets, therefore you end up having a better day, so yea i could buy that people ty to look good for themselves(i'm one of them)

Answer 2

Well, here we go. I am working on losing weight to feel better about myself. So in turn I have strated to fix myself up more hoping that woudl motivate me to do better when I make choices about what I eat and how often I work out. So yes I can believe some people are doing it for themselves.

Answer 3

haha. i answered your question like that earlier. so no. i don't think they're lying. for example, i wear matching underwear to school but it's not like anyone is going to be seeing it. i just do it because it makes me happy. kind of the same with hair, make up, etc. i'll admit some of it is for others. but the majority is for myself.

Answer 4

There is nothing wrong with wanting to look good for yourself,
while I won't buy into that ONLY stuff......If ya feel like ya look good then you feel better about yourself....."No boubt adoubt
it".......

Answer 5

operative word being ONLY. Hell no....Lets face it, if looks didn't matter we'd all be grotesquely overweight and wear no make up.
