Boys, Looks and Insecurity…Oh Boy!

By Stephanie, 18, HRM 

The one thing that makes me tick is when people judge someone based on their looks.

I am an 18 year old female who's a bit on the thick side of things and when it comes to men and them judging me on my weight and looks and NOT my personality, it just frustrates me.  

I've only had one serious boyfriend that wasn't the same age as me. He was 2 years younger than I was and he was such a sweetheart, but once I started to mature, he just wasn't willing to understand that I was growing up and he was still somewhat of a child and so we broke it off.  

We're still great friends, but it's just not good enough for me. So, this is what it comes down to. I've been crushing on this guy who plays on a hockey team and he doesn't know I like him, but I added him on MSN to try and get to know him a bit better, but you know what he did?

He blocked and deleted me because I sent him a picture of me and he didn't like the way I looked. 

I really like this guy, but if he's not going to like me, I kind of feel like I have no chance in life of getting a boyfriend. I know this sounds rather pathetic, but hey, how many of you out there can tell me you haven't been "virtually" put-down by a guy you liked?  

It happens to the better half of us. It's a feeling I really dislike. Just because I’m fat or THICK as I like to say, doesn’t mean I'm not a good person. I just wish he would have given me a chance to show him how good a person I am.

Well, this is my rant and this is what makes me tick. Catch ya later.

Peace & Love
