I remember that sometime back a guy told me that I was pretty. The person that was with me, whom I thought was my friend made it think that he was flirting with her. She said that she was the pretty one.
The guy later reminded me that I was also pretty, I just thanked him and left. I was so embarrassed to think that my skinny friend would stand up for me. I never talked to her again cause I felt like my self worth was demoralized. I felt like a useless human.
Later on, I started appreciating myself more. I learnt that confidence should come from me. Even though some comments will be hard to ignore, I have the right to be happy, and I would make myself happy.
