Do you remember the horror that was communal changing rooms in clothes shops?

Just reflecting on this today .. I remember cowering in a corner trying to show as little as possible ( I was obese as a teen) . Then the shame if something was too small ( everyone’s looking!) . Also the wait for the mirror
It made clothes shopping a nightmare for me

Trust me , no one was looking. Everyone probably felt the same. Except me as I would not 2 figs what people saw, I am never going to see these people again, really really do not give a shit. I have often wondered in life why people think they are so important that others would be looking at them and they are 'so embarrassed'. really - no one cares. Harsh but true.
