So I'm in high school and you already know that it's pretty hectic. I always have to keep up with my grades and
I'm always trying to get a job get my license and it's pretty stressful.
But it's also kind of stressful when you don't look your age.
I'm a really small person. I am
4 foot 11, and
I basically have a baby face, and
with that you can already guess that my body type is pretty skinny and small and,
as a lot of people would say - not attractive.
So in high school, you know, you really work hard to make yourself look good.
You want to go to school everyday looking the best you can but it's really hard for me because I never
think that I look good enough to go to school, and
It sucks, but I get through. But around my freshman year of high school
I started to realize that a lot of people were dating, and growing, and I
wasn't. So you know over that summer
I guess people just had a giant growth spurt, and I grew maybe 2 inches?
But that is when I started to like people, but they would always make jokes about me.
They would say you're a good-looking girl, but you just don't have the right body.
So in 9th grade I met another boy and
we talked every single day and every single night and I
really started to develop feelings for him, and
one day he told me he liked me and that he wanted to date me and,
when I say that this was one of the best moments of my life, I definitely mean it
I've always had these crushes on these guys
but they would always turn me down because I don't have boobs, or a butt, or a big curve.
But when this guy asked me out it really meant a lot to me. Pretty happy,
and of course I said yes. I'm in my junior year now we've been together for two years.
I still look like an eighth grader and he looks like a senior ,so....
People make fun of us. They say that I look like a little girl and he looks like an adult.
But I think he really loves me and he always tells me every day that
he loves me for me, and my body isn't everything to him, and he
even loves my body for the way it is. And if I didn't have him in my life to tell me this stuff
I honestly don't know how I would feel about myself.
You know, I've always wanted some type of plastic surgery,
but ever since he came around I felt comfortable with myself.
I think this story is just to say, you know, you're gonna find that someone who allows you to love yourself!
