I have a question for you; how would you feel if one of your children said the same as you? Do you think your children are beautiful? If you continued to talk yourself down and your children look like you, how do you think they will grow up feeling about their own beautiful faces?
This is about your confidence and accepting yourself - your uniqueness, your personal beauty that no one else can replicate.
I saw a video on social media the other day of a woman who has a very strong, prominent Roman nose. She uses make up to enhance it. She is insanely proud of it, it’s her heritage, it’s her parentage, it’s her. She was so beautiful. Not beautiful except for her nose, just beautiful. She was full of confidence and was proud of herself.
who told you your nose was ugly? Who told you larger noses were ugly? Because fuck what society thinks. Society changes it’s mind all the time, one minute it’s so thin you’re skeletal, then it’s big bottoms, then it’s big breasts, tiny eyebrows, huge eyebrows, rounded cheeks then no fat in your cheeks. Your DH clearly finds you attractive. I think you need to talk to someone about body dysmorphia and your confidence and start from there. And don’t forget that the images we see every day are so doctored. Real people have differences, bits are bigger and smaller. I have tiny lips, they’re almost non existent. And I have a larger nose, a square head, no eyelids and big cheeks. Society will tell me all of those things are awful at some point and some days I feel down, but they’re also the things that make me, me. Look in the mirror and start telling yourself how beautiful you are. See yourself as one of your children. Tell yourself you love your nose, your eyes, your mouth. Do it every day. It starts off hard but it gets easier and your mindset starts to change.
