stretch marks

hey guys, as a teenager, my stretch marks have been getting to me kind of a lot. they’re all over my butt and now they’re starting to move down my thighs. it’s mostly genetics because my mom has a lot of them and i’m pretty healthy. i guess i compare myself to other girls my age and even though my boyfriend tells me everyone has them, i don’t think i’ve ever seen them as bad as mine. i wish i could be proud of them and recognize that they’re natural but it’s kinda hard when they’re so visible especially when i’m in a bathing suit. i guess i’m just writing this incase there’s anyone else like me so they don’t feel as alone as i do. so yeah.
