I'm sorry you feel yourself to be ugly. That probably is untrue, I haven't seen you but I don't know any really ugly people.

A friend of mine believes that when a child suffers trauma, they don't develop emotionally past that age. I don't know. Maybe a part of you stays that age. I find certain triggers leave me feeling like a bewildered young child, but also I have matured in many ways too. I think we are in touch with our emotional selves as different ages, depending on the context.

Does that make any sense? It's not anything you would see in a text book, but it's what seems to happen to me.

Best wishes
Yes maybe. I just resent the influence things like that have over me because I don't judge other people in the same way. I feel like other people's actions have made me like this. It makes me feel like a child - emotionally stunted and looked down upon - and I should have matured beyond that by now. I don't like it in me because I hate vanity but I'd love to just feel okay and not observed. Just to fit in. I barely feel human.
