I do not see myself as pretty as other people see me. I try to but I don’t see it. I have a healthy self-esteem and I love myself the way I am but when people talk about how gorgeous I am I’m just so confused. It’s as if they’re talking about my pink hair that I’m pretty sure was brown the last time I checked. I’ll never get it. I do feel like I am prettier than I was as a teen and that I was an ugly duckling back then but I friended a popular guy that I used to go to school with and he said “how can I forget about your beauty”? And I’m like huh? I have days where I feel prettier than usual but overall I don’t feel like I’m what one would call beautiful or gorgeous. I’m just curious. There’s a person inside of ourselves that other people know and we may never even meet that person.
