jessy1 Posted March 8, 2010 Posted March 8, 2010 This is maybe a little strange post to put on LS but I want a little help in a different area. As you may have guessed by a title I have a HUGE problem with my nose. The reason I am writitng this is because im sooooo sick and tired of being teased about it. I come home today after some young kid in a supermarket aisle called me the lady with the 'big nose' and here I am on LS for some confort. I have a big nose in general and It also has a large bump on it. I have been teased all my life about it and it has totally destroyed my self confidence. It may seem strange to some readers but something so small (or big in my case) as my nose has simply destoryed my life. I hate going out because of it and hate meeting new people as all they see is my nose. Im single and know the reason I cant get a bf is because of this. Im a uni student, tens of thousands in debt, so plastic surgery isnt an option. My parents just laugh at me and tell me to get over it when I beg them to help me get it fixed. My latest experience (besides the one in the supermarket just now) was pulling up next to a car load of guys who all yelled "show us your nose" and burst out laughing. This actually broke my heart. I guess I want to know if anyone else understands what in going through and if you have any tips on making my nose look better (make up tips or anything?) And for the males does a girl with a big nose totally put you off? Thanks for reading
Disintegration Posted March 9, 2010 Posted March 9, 2010 I'm truly sorry you were made fun of by insensitive people. I never understood people who deliberately go out of their way to ridicule someone, especially to their face. That is extremely rude. All I can say is I'm sorry you feel bad, I know it can ruin your self esteem, but beauty is in the eye of the beholder. No matter what size nose you have what color eyes or body shape you are, someone is going to appreciate you for you and not what you look like. I hope you get to feeling better.
trojans10 Posted March 10, 2010 Posted March 10, 2010 Hey Jessy1, I know exactly what your going through! I have a huge nose too, sort of like a roman nose, slightly curved but big nonetheless. Anyways I grew up getting made fun of all the time because of my nose. This last year I went as far as complaining to my parents about it, and saving up for plastic surgery. I actually researched it soo much that I could do the surgery myself. I ended up coming to the realization that messing around with something can make something worse, and I don't want that something to be my nose. Because of this one feature i hated about myslef, I always was down in the dumps. I defininlty feel you on this, and alot of people don't understand. But we are our worst critics! Think of this when you have negative thoughts. I have a huge nose, and catch myself looking at peoples noses and judging theirs. Which is not something good. As for guys, just make sure you stay in shape, stay healthy, and have a postive personality. Guys really just look for girls who look after themselves. aka. non-smoker, and hits the gym 3-4x a week. P.S. I am a male.
