View of self

Recently I have been considering, how do I view myself? Everyone always tells me that I'm pretty,cute,small, and so on. I don't feel like this all the time. I want to feel pretty but boys are never attracted to me. In the past couple years the boys that have been interested in me are snakes, ugly or have a bad personality. Sorry if that sounds mean but it's how I feel. Why can't a beautiful, smart, sweet gentleman ever like me? I enjoy being with boys and all but I'm starting to give up on them!. Weight, That's a heavy subject. Haha, that was a good one. Anyway....I am not skinny but I'm not fat either. I would love to lose some weight but I don't have the motivation to exercise everyday. I feel lazy most of the time and see it as too much effort. I wonder why this is.... You know how some people feel good and pretty if their hair is in place, they have good clothes on, or  they are wearing makeup? Well, I feel pretty when I'm exercising everyday. I will have times in my life where I will run or do something active for about a month and then just when I'm starting to see results, I feel like that's good enough and I stop. It's annoying because I know that I'm so close and I just stop. I don't know....I need to examine my life and some how change the way I feel about my-self. It will be a hard journey but I believe I can do it.

  1. I vote you start with getting back on the Cross Country Team. Then you have more of a reason to do your everyday exercising, resulting in you feeling better about yourself more often! Yeah, good idea.

  2. I agree! I think you should come back to running! Not only is it good for keeping your body in shape, but it is also great mentally too.. studies have shown that running elicits a flood of endorphins in the brain (which is what makes you feel good afterwards), its like the bodys own natural anti depressant. Reasons for feeling sluggish and tired may actually not even be your fault... in middle school I felt the same way all the time. I could barely get out of bed in the morning and I would just crash after I got home from school, turns out I had an under active thyroid.Hypothyroidism is actually pretty common.. have you had yours checked? It could also be what you are eating, if the fuel you put into your body is not substantial then you aren't going to perform at your peak.and don't forget that muscle weighs more than fat! Sorry I am writing a lot.. but about the boys! Here is a quote you might like, "Women are like apples on trees. The best ones are at the top of the tree. The men don't want to reach for the good ones because they are afraid of falling and getting hurt. Instead, they just get the rotten apples from the ground that aren't as good, but easy.So the apples at the top think something is wrong with them, when in reality, THEY'RE amazing. They just have to wait for the right man to come along, the one who's brave enough to climb all the way to the top of the tree." You are really just starting out your life, there is plenty of time to find that right person. Try not to be so hard on yourself.. and don't give up hope, smile, walk tall, and be proud of who you are! :).
