    I always thought of myself as attractive, in that a lot of people used to hit on me before I had children. Then for years no one did ever, at all. Which is understandable, I looked like a haggard mother. But now I have lost weight and am looking after myself, I think I look ok, most of the time, but then occasionally get these flashes of "OMG I look rough! Everyone probably thinks I am a sad old woman." I think it comes from being a student and spending a lot of time with people 12 years younger than me. I am really beginning to feel old. Which is depressing.

    So I would say for me, no, I am not as attractive as I am in my head, as I still see myself as I was at 21, when I am in fact 34, and look my age.

    How about you?

    I'm like you... I think I'm past my prime. At least, we can always work on how our body look. We can be sad old women with hot bodies!

    :smokin: I'm 32 years old.. will be 33 in May. I think I'm IN my prime RIGHT NOW. I feel hot, mature and ready to take this world on. In my 20's I was very insecure therefore I held back in many ways. Not anymore!!!

    According to people I've dated I am beautiful/cute, according to the deadened apathy from the rest of the world I'm average, according to what I see when I look in the mirror I am pretty.

    I never get hit on, or when I do it's from terrifying people. I've only dated two people ever (I'm 24) and I never had a boyfriend until I was 20. But hey, at least I'm not as awkward-looking as I was when I was a teen.

    I am not attractive as I wish I were, but I'm more attractive than I think I am. I feel like I really look like I'm 30 years old (which I am) or even older, but I'm told all the time that I don't look like I'm 30. So really, I have no idea. :laugh:

    I don't think I'm attractive at all. I just pretend that I think I'm hot, and it usually works ok for me. The problem is, even though I've lost about 20 pounds, I feel like I don't look any different, and think I look like I weigh a LOT more than I actually do. I'm only saying this because it's online and I don't know any of you...in real life you would have no idea I don't think I'm attractive :laugh:

    I'm trained to be on stage, so pretending probably works better for me than most people...

    Confidence is a major player imho. Honestly, dont really view myself as super attractive, but with my personality, my life style, and what looks I do have, I feel that I am somewhat worthy of the absolute knockout that I am with now

    honestly it depends on the day. Somedays I feel sexy and others I know I am no different than the day before but I still feel rough. As I am losing weight there are more sexy days though haha :)


    i agree!!!

    I used to have a pretty face (My momma always said self praise stunk, but I'm a Christian, so I must be honest, :wink: }, but last year I noticed how very...... full it became. It was no longer "If only you'd lose weight... You have such a pretty face...." and just "If only you'd lose weight...". I'm working on it now, and while my face still isn't as cute as it used to be, I'm a lot better than I was six months ago! :smile:

    Comparing oneself to another isn't wise. A lot of people sees themselves in a negativity light, because they are comparing themselves against someone or something.

    Why do you feel unattractive? You are beautiful. The cause goes beyond looks. Never throw yourself in prison and give people or things your freedom key. Come out from behind those bars. You always have the power to destroy your jail.

    Never think that being notice is what makes you beautiful or attractive.

    Lift your head up and stop putting yourself down. When you do that, some people will think that's how you are supposed to be treated and that's how they will treat you.

    Love yourself always.

    This really touched me today, I thank you.

    I usually like myself from the neck up when the lighting is kind and I've got a respectable amount of make-up on. Obviously after a few glasses of vino I feel fab!

    Clothes, hormones and the amount of sleep I've had always affect how I feel!

    I've always struggled with self image problems. I'm finally learning to love myself, and think I'm becoming a little more attractive, but I still think I'm ugly and have still never been hit on. All guys seem to look at is my big boobs.
