It isn't petty if it bothers you....but is might be a problem with a fairly easy solution...When you grow up being told only negative things about yourself,as an adult it seems to keep right on playing over and over in our minds...

all that stuff we were taught about ourselves... like a tape recorded message....and sometime or another, we have to figure out how to erase that tape and make a new one...

Until we learn to stop listening to all the lies we were told,we can't be free of the negative feelings about ourselves.Dr. Phil says we have to be our own best friend.. and the most important relationship we will ever have is with ourselves.I think this is true... think about it.

I'm sure you are a very pretty young lady... and if you seem to have hatred for yourself, others are gonna pick up on that and shy away... There is a fabulous book called "Beauty For Ashes"by Joyce Meyer. It's a Christian book and its so good... it has helped me and thousands of other people learn to love themselves... maybe it can help you too.

I hope you find a way to love who you are...Faith
