i used to cut awhile back, because i was stupid...the problem is i still have a scar from one of them...i wrote a word on my leg and its still visible.
tommorow im going swimming with a friend, and idk how im going to hide it  .
ive been putting a bandaid over it when i wear shorts so it appears normal, but i know the bandaid will fall off when i get in the pool. plus were probably going to be getting in and out of the water so it might be visible  .
any help?

Just say that it was a piece of glass that fell.

Try to stay in the water as much as possible. If she's your friend then she'll understand if she does happen to see it...

What does it say?

You could always write over it in pen, and say that you got bored and wrote on yourself?

Can you get a pair of board shorts that are knee length? I can understand if you don't want to tell her, if it's not longer a problem then I don't see the need to.

If she is a close friend you should tell her that you USED to cut, make sure she knows that you still don't cut.
