being the fat friend

Lauren

my girlfriends are all way taller than me and a size 8-10 (au). i’m a 10 but i’m 5’2” and am definitely carrying extra weight there’s no denying it.

i feel like the guys always go for them and i’m just the friend on the side. people say i’m pretty and have boobs but i can’t help but feel like second best when they’re around and guys are gawking at my friends. they’re good friends and they don’t do anything to make me feel bad about my body, it’s more about the way i see myself.

i feel so anti feminist saying this but sometimes i feel like a lot of my problems would be solved if i was an AU-6 and resembles more of the conventionally attractive model of women. what do you guys do to remind yourself you’re beautiful?
