    I have severe body dysmorphia, I avoid being seen in public and never let people touch me or come near me. I despise my body (height, weight, shape, the whole nine yards) and it makes me ashamed and depressed. If I dated someone I'd be terrified to reveal my body especially because it's noticeably feminine and I'd like to be the more "masculine" one. At the same time I, uh, want to be intimate with someone. I have no clue what to do except work out hard as fuck and hope that I eventually get over my issues. Just wanted to vent but any advice is appreciated
