-- Posted by Anonymous at 4:03 pm on May 25, 2008 Do you think that people judge their own flaws way more harshly then other people do? The reason I am asking this is because I have pretty noticeable stretch marks on the backs of my legs and my hips. It has kept me from getting close with people in a relationship because i am so self conscious of them and think that if they see them they won't like me anymore But then i realized that maybe i am overreacting and judging my own body because you are your own worst critic. Thoughts? -- Posted by LeanneS at 4:04 pm on May 25, 2008 definetly. i bet no one even notices your stretch marks except yourself. -- Posted by malignant melanoma at 4:05 pm on May 25, 2008 Yes, definitely. -- Posted by Darkane at 4:05 pm on May 25, 2008 You're right, I think everyone can relate to that. Sometimes you just have to forget about it and if people don't like it then tough, you tried and it's their problem. Stretch marks are only superficial though, don't worry bout them!
