I'm sorry. When I started the thread, literally I was going to post about how i have no confidence and I'm nervous about my body, etc. And I'm chatting with a lot of guys who look cute online and I don't feel equal to them. So my self-confidence is way low. But last night I gained more confidence because even though I'm overweight and covered in scars, this guy was not as cute as I would've hoped and he had no charisma. And even though we had a so-so date, he still sent me a sext pic (you can guess of what) when he got home and is chatting me up this morning.

So I guess I was a mess because I had no confidence. But I think a bit differently now.
