Attraction
When I was a kid, I didn't care about what clothes I wore, how my hair looked, how I came off to people, etc. I enjoyed the days with my friends, and we had a lot of fun.
As time has passed, my friends have changed. They taught me a lot of things that I don't like. For example, I only look good if I wear my clothes a certain way, if I comb my hair a certain way, etc. The thing is - not only was I told those things, I feel them. If my clothes don't look right, I feel wrong. If my hair is messy, I feel like girls won't like me. But I also don't like how I look unless I'm a certain way.
How does this happen? If you told me it didn't matter how I dress, I would still feel like I look bad in the mirror.
Am I wrong to think I look bad? If I look bad, isn't it possible that some people are not good? Maybe beauty is not in the eye of the beholder. Maybe we find people ugly because they have bad DNA - maybe the ugly people are worth less than good looking people.
What are your thoughts on all of this?
