I am sorry you had to deal with this. I would like to say it may lessen as you age but observation has shown me that's not always the case.

I was a little taken aback you said you became a doctor to show there is more to you. I would say very few people are capable of the academic and emotional demands of medicine- honestly I admire anyone who does that! Regardless of how they look.

I can see you are a mother of a confident happy young woman too - that is definitely an achievement too!

I have a friend with an unusual appearance due to a birth condition- they also get stared at. They learned to ignore it. Maybe this will be your path too?

Just wanted to add not all women are jealous of attractive women, at least not the ones I know. It would be a boring life if we all looked the same!
