I'll admit I have a bit of hard time relating. When I was young, I was the guy always trying to fit in, and never quite managing it. Then around 12, I had an epiphany. Why do I want these people to like me? I hate them. Ever sense then, I've been doing my own thing, and I really don't give a good God damn what people think of me, other then my close friends. What they think matters greatly. All I can say is, being able to evaluate yourself, and then deciding to change the things that you don't like takes a great deal of inner strength. Most people are to afraid to look at themselves honestly to make a change. Before you go worrying about what other people think, remember that little fact, and remember that that alone probably makes you a better person then 99% of them.
If I may be so bold, I think the problem lies not with what other people see. It's that you took a good hard look at yourself, and found things you didn't like. Now, they are all that you see, and because of that, you are afraid that other people see them to. Simple truth is though, by acknowledging they are there and taking steps to fix them, you are a better person then you last saw. Keep that in mind, and keep striving to better yourself. That is really all you can do in life, and the best thing anyone can over hope to do. Kudos for trying to become a better man. I wish more people would follow your example.
