do you really think that no one else likes or would ever like your face? i feel like if you really believe that, it would be impossible not to internalize that feeling and not like it yourself, creating a cycle?


I’m new to liking my face, after learning very slowly that there’s nothing inherently wrong with it. But that’s because I learnt to take a few seconds to think about things. I feel like people’s kneejerk reaction to my face would be ‘not very pretty’ and a lot of people don’t re-think their first thoughts and why they’re thinking them.  

EDIT: But a lot of people have said they like my face and think I’m attractive and pretty which shows that it really is subjective.  I think a lot of people really do genuinely and honestly subscribe to the standards of beauty through fear and I worry that people who are otherwise good people are scared too.
