Insecure, learning to love myself

Michelle • 🌈🤍❤️🧡💛💙💚💜💖

I don’t know if anyone has ever gone through this but I remember when I was a little girl I looked into the mirror and I thought to myself how beautiful I was and I felt that acceptance and confidence that was not conceited but instead in a healthy positive way. Since then I have never felt that way and now I’m 20. ive this is the most insecure I have been in my life. I have gained a few pounds and I have stretch marks but I have been able to overcome them by an instagram model who is a mom and calls them tiger stripes, it has given me a lot of strength. the biggest issue right now are my boobs, I’m not happy with they and I’ve become insecure from what the media has portrayed what they should like. They are too apart for my liking and I don’t like them. It’s so bad that I’ve convinced myself i should get surgery. I know where this is all rooted and it’s been based off peoples negative comments and opinions, also i compare myself a lot to others. A big experience was when I showed my childhood best friend my nipples and she made a comment that affected me forever “ewww your nipples are big” and it still gets to me. Guys that I’ve had sex with would say “I would like your boobs better if they were like this” and things like that all get to me. I’ve considered nipple piercings and an underboob tattoo but I don’t want to just cover up my insecurities like that I want to love my body. My boyfriend says he likes my boobs but honestly his validation isint enough and I need to learn to accept myself. Well this is all I had to say, If you relate to me at all just feel free to comment anything. Thank you
