Self-Esteem Therapy Time!!! - Empty Closets - A safe online community for gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgendered people coming out

Greggers · 7th Mar 2009, 11:20 PM

Ok, i have noticed that alot of people (myself included) tend to have very low self-esteem, especially about there looks. Whenever someone says "i dont think im pretty" or "i dont think im funny" people rush to comfort and compliment them, but that can only help to a degree really. The person you need to convince is yourself.

So this is how this is going to go down: Everyone HAS to say one nice thing about there looks, and one nice thing about there personality. Dont be modest, this is not the thread for that! Say you look better than Tyra Banks, go all out! Just make sure you *believe* what you say

Greggers · 7th Mar 2009, 11:21 PM

Ok ill go. Um...

My skin is very smooth and not covered in achene or zits or moles

My personality is very upbeat and happy when im around other people

Your turn guys!

**Maddy** · 7th Mar 2009, 11:32 PM

I have an unusual eye colour that I think is pretty cool. Still don't totally know what colour - little bit of blue, little bit of green, little bit of grey.
I try not to annoy people. I'm very cautious and I don't like getting in anyone's way.

StrataScribe · 7th Mar 2009, 11:46 PM

(Sadly, I had to think about this for a bit...)

I like how I have only one prominent dimple when I smile
I tend to care too much about people (and what they think) - which can be just as bothersome as it is good

Mr Bojangles · 7th Mar 2009, 11:49 PM

I'm apparently very funny, sober or drunk

I care about my friends lots, and they love me for it.

I apparently have an awesome T-Shirt collection

Lychee · 7th Mar 2009, 11:51 PM

I have a good sense of humour =]

And apparently I have really good eyebrows

ricoca · 8th Mar 2009, 12:29 AM

StrataScribe, I love your tagline.

I am extremely supportive of my friends.

I have a great butt.

Hoppip · 8th Mar 2009, 12:03 PM

5 times out of 7, my hair looks awesome. I dress pretty nicely, I have a nice smile, and my face is cute. I've lost a lot of weight since when I was in middle school.

I (hope) I'm funny, and I've heard I'm romantic and nice.

And I have a level 53 Gengar, now. ^_^

jazzrawr · 8th Mar 2009, 12:20 PM

I like my freckles.

And I have a bubbly personality that people say they like.
