Am I the only one who feels that way?

[Rosabelle65]

When I was 17 I started following the Kardashians and Jenners, I was always a huge fan of them. Then as I was scrolling through their Instagram I started to have this body insecurity. Why aren’t my boobs as big as Kylie’s, why isn’t my ass that big, how did they get to have such a small waist.

I then noticed the amount of likes they got, and I be like if that’s what most guys like maybe I should go for plastic surgery to do a full body change. I had this thought that since many guys like it means that good men will expect me to look like them. I started working out at age 19, and I started cosplaying, I used makeup. I finally got the attention from people, more guys were checking me out, even girls! I remembered getting some guys and girls to take a picture together. So this is what it feels like to be a little famous. A guy who is a little younger than me said “you looked so gorgeous” that’s when I started blushing. But still the attention wasn’t enough to make me drop the idea of getting plastic surgery. I still didn’t like what I saw in the mirror even after putting in all that effort working out. Then I found out that those celebrities I followed and loved so much they all had plastic surgeries. I decided to unfollow them. At age 20, I gained 10kg, and I did workouts which focus on my upper body as an additional to abs and booty workout. I finally developed curves my boobs went from a 30B to a 30D. But still it’s not enough I be like “I think I need to have rhinoplasty.” I asked those close to me what they think of people getting plastic surgery to look good. They said only stupid people do that. I pretend to agree with them, but deep down I don’t. I read online about surgery complications and that’s when I stopped wanting to get work done on my body. When I think back to why I wanna get it done, it’s not because I’m doing it for myself but to attract a good man who is marriage material.

That’s why never compare yourselves to other influencers and celebs on Instagram. Since filters and photoshop are used to change their looks. Social media isn’t reality

And a good man isn’t going to be only looking for a perfect body and all that he’s going to realize that beauty fades especially fake beauty look at somebody that’s older and has had surgery they end up doing surgery after surgery trying to chase their looks and in the end look way worse he’s gonna be more interested in your character your morals how you treat people that’s what’s truly important so any guy just looking for a superficial woman isn’t a great catch and only looks good on the outside himself learn to love yourself and be a strong confident and caring woman and you’ll attract the same in a man

It's called self-esteem. It has little to nothing to do with what you look like. Your insecurities about your looks are just a manifestation of your low self-esteem.

Aka you need to work on that rather than focusing only on your looks that will eventually fade with age anyway.

Thank you It took me 3 years to overcome that insecurity

[SnakeBoop]

no amount of cosmetic surgery will land you "marriage material" type of man to date.
Your first mistake was following the trend of liking trashy, blow up sex doll wannabes like the kardashians and expecting to have healthy body expectations.

Congratulations on coming to your senses and realizing your own self worth.
Loving yourself is a monumental step.
Important life step.
You're going to raise daughters and sons that are going to be tempted by that silly goofy shallow plastic bs.
I'm glad you got past it.

[Rosabelle65]

I don’t want my future kids when they’re in their teens to think plastic surgery is the only way to make them love themselves more and that what they see on social media is not reality

[Andres77]

I completely agree.

[boggboss]

Welcome to the world of social media and how predatory it can be for people that are insecure

[boggboss]

With how marketing is now it makes sense through fear what u described is not strange and many product makers know this why do u think influences and celebrities have sponsorship deals aimed at women they know women will watch a video think that person looks amazing and that will lead them to wanting it so they can look beautiful themself which in turn makes them also free advertisement for when other women see more and more normal women wearing the same type of stuff

[Rosabelle65]

Do you get insecure after using social media?

[boggboss]

No im bone headed I think I'm just about avrage looks wise but I'm comftble and fine looking that way I also don't compare my looks to other guys so when I use social media it dont have that effect on me love what u have not what u see others having

[BeenThereLovedIt]

The womens magazines have been doing this for decades. It's been a real problem since before I was born. The mass media just hopped on board stepped it up a bit.

I never understood the kardashians "fame" I don't think any of them are attractive. Boobs and butts are way too big. Why would any girl want to have such a hideous looking butt. A good man will be attracted to you for who you are.

These people have millions of dollars to spend on their looks and they are not real. They are constructed. Relax and try being yourself.

It’s ok I realised that all these perfect bodies were not attainable and it’s very unrealistic. I’m happy with how I looked thanks
