My girlfriend worries frequently (I gather this is more or less ubiquitous) about her body. She frequently makes comments about how she's not attractive, or about how she doesn't think males in general find her attractive, or can't imagine why the thought of her might be arousing.
I couldn't understand at all at first why she was saying these things... She is a good-looking girl.
I've gotten sort of used to it as 'just one of those things girls do,' but it still kills me. I love telling her from time to time how beautiful she is, but this doesn't seem to help. Is there any particular way anyone can recommend (which doesn't involve sex, as she's under the age of consent) to make her feel better about herself? It just tears at my heart to think that she doesn't feel like the beautiful creature she is.
Many times it's insecurity and stereotypes which make us wonder. Inside we may know on some level we are "ok" looking, but we find our own faults and dwell on them. Unless you are the "barbie-doll" many just don't feel beautiful. Then at some point we accept ourselves, make the best of what we have, and it's not really important.
What can you do? Nothing. Just let her know you feel she is attractive, don't over-do it, and let her find it out on her own.
Women think of themselves that way sometimes. There is really nothing you can do about it.
At times woman don’t feel sexy, I found that most woman don’t feel sexy and insecure at cretin times of the month in there cycle, no mater what you say or do they will feel the same (don’t stop complementing her it still will make her feel better)
I agree.... There's really nothing you can do.
Just let her know that no matter what she, or anyone else, says, she is still the most beautiful thing since the Blue Sky itself
everyone goes through a stage of not liking their body, i do when i have me period. especially when i quit smoking and gained weight all you have to do is comfort her and reassure her.
