The more I strive for beauty, the less beautiful I feel?

Things that I've never considered an insecurity suddenly become blown out of proportion.The more I strive for beauty, the less beautiful I feel?
Hi,


I'm sorry, I don't understand that question... You feel you're not attractive enough for the opposite sex? Or whichever you're attracted to? And you've tried to change your appearance and you don't feel the change you've expected?


I think you've nearly answered your own question. Some people are more emotionally-depended and weak than others, like women who always dress up, look extra sexy, and feel they need to be out in clubs every week or their social life is lacking.


It sounds like this isn't you're that type, since 'striving for beauty' didn't give you the effect you expected. You should be reaping the benefits of being happy with yourself, since that's what you are, you seemed to misunderstand yourself before. I'm sure you have plenty hobbies and don't mind being alone. If not, you may've been misunderstanding yourself. Good luck!! You're good the way you are, trust me.The more I strive for beauty, the less beautiful I feel?
me too life sucks for me...I've try to overcome my low self esteem but nothing works.
u should make a list of the bad things about yourself and the good things (feel like a narcisist) then work on the bad and make the good stronger
i know how you feel, when i find something wrong with me it becomes a real problem..





when i take a good photo, and post it on the web, i feel like i am lying to everyone, because i feel that it was a lucky shot, so it looks good, not that i look good..





more you try to perfect something, the more inperfect it becomes..





i know this sounds shallow, but compare your self to ugly people that might make you feel not so bad..





and i don't mean, go round saying oh you ugly cow, look at me..





i mean there are faults with everyone, you just see yours cause you see your self every morning and everytime you look in the mirror you see your faults upclose in your face..
Your quest for perfection will only result in your own misery.
