Why do people tease me about my weight so much?

[Anonymous]

My whole life I've been so insecure about my weight. I've always been trying to put on weight but nothing ever works no matter how much I eat. And I don't starve myself at all I eat so much it just never shows. People are always telling me I'm so skinny, and I have no body fat. At first I use to think they were just jealous, but I'm not sure if they find my body ugly or something. I just don't understand because it's not like you can see my bones or anything, I consider myself an average weight, but everyone makes me think something is wrong with my body. The thing is that in school there's girls even skinnier than me that are literally boney, but it's only me who gets teased and it's really annoying.
It makes me feel so insecure and I don't know why everyone sees me as a walking stick, when I'm not.

I use to have the same problem. The thing is that you should adopt the mentality of only choosing to hear things that empower you. People will always judge you and seek faults in you but you should be confident about you. Make a list of all the things that you are good at and things that you love about yourself, read it everyday to remind yourself that you are who you are and you have lived with yourself way too long to be brought down by this one issue.
I was dubbed scrawny and for many years it bothered me, I thought about it a lot and it became toxic to me. Later on in life I realized that I was so caught up in everyone else's opinion about me that I forgot who I really am.
Start from within, try to ignore what others say and accept yourself and your body. These people that judge you don't feed you, they do not live in your body, mind and soul. You are who you are and eventually you will gain weight but in my case I started gaining weight after I stopped carring about everyone else's opinion and became happier with myself.
Be happy with yourself and when you wake up each morning take a good look in the mirror, tell yourself that you are beautiful, sexy and smile.😁😁😁

Hey, I've been called anorexic and bulimic. I've also been made fun of for not having any boobs. I'm not even kidding you when I say I have NO BOOBS. They're tiny and it's gross. I feel so unfeminine. My mom tells me if I were to take off my shirt and stand against the wall, I'd blend in... I feel your pain. 100% I wish people would just stop, but they won't. Try to ignore it. I know it's so hard, but try.

Haters gonna hate.
No, but really. People love to find things to tease about someone else, and if they seem flustered by it, they'll continue. You aren't ugly. (Imo skinny girls are pretty cute). If you can't even see bones, that is average. The best way to deal with annoying people like them is just to act tired of their crap. If they are friends, just tell them straight up what you feel.

On a personal note, I've always been really skinny with a high metabolism. I've always been insecure about weight too just because I'm 6'3" and very skinny. People used to tease me, but I just kind of brushed them off as morons who are trying to get me worked up and they left me alone. One time I just agreed with a "yeah, probably" to whatever they were trying to say and it confused them haha.

They tease because they know it gets under your skin. Embrace how thin you are now because it won't last, trust me

You are NOT ugly, you are beautiful the way you are. Please don't ever let anyone get you down about your weight. They probably are just jealous of you. Screw everyone else, you do you. But remember, your flaws make you who you are, and you're perfect.

They are jealous of you because they want to look like you but they can't since their body and metabolism is different. Truly ugly people do not get teased for their appearance as often as people that the other girls are jealous off. Don't try to lose the weight. When you get older or even now - find a guy who likes your skinny body and enjoy your life!!!
