reader submission: vanity
Dear Alexi,
First off, I love reading your blog, your blind leading the blind posts always make my days, I am always eagerly awaiting new ones.
Lately, I feel that I have zero confidence. I think it’s funny how one day I can think I’m beautiful and skinny and the next day think I’m not worth looking at.
I crave boys attention, don’t we all? I want to be noticed, to be pretty, and to maybe land a guy as awesome as I think I am.
My friend told me that I always date down. Perhaps, but I feel that it’s way more important to feel pretty, and happy, and secure around a boy who may not be as attractive as you, but dresses way nice, and always has something positive to say. He brings out an energy in you that you don’t have around anyone else. But then there’s the side of me that thinks that she has a point, that I do date down. I feel that any attractive boy I meet has zero brain cells and cannot keep a conversation, and/or just wants ass. Is there such thing as an attractive guy who genuinely wants to be with me, and not in a sexual way? Maybe I’m jaded because any attractive boy I’ve been with was only about the ass.
