By club, I mean doing some activity that you enjoy such as surfing, skiing, hiking, music etc. You might meet a better class of man there. I cannot believe they are all so narcissistic and crass. If they are, it would put me into a depression too! agree. live your life with things you enjoy, and in so doing find others who are doing the same. there are a lot of asses out there. the issue is that the OP seems to take it as a reflection on her. If something is worth having, it's worth making an effort for.

Bugjune wrote:kk25, don't get discouraged!!! I had braces put on at age 43. It was quite frankly the BEST thing I ever did for myself (along with Vaser High Def lipo). I actually felt cute and perky with my tinsel teeth! I got an adorable Paul Frank t-shirt with that goofy monkey wearing braces. Loved it!!
What did get me down during the 3 years I had braces on was the periodic tightening of them. Oh KO! The pain! I couldn't even suck a leaf of lettuce for about 4 days afterwards. That completely bummed me.
I bet once that metal comes off, you will 1.) JUMP for joy, followed by 2.) spring for a BriteSmile tooth whitening, and then 3.) SMILE like there's no tomorrow!
Believe me, it's worth it. ===================== Bug June thank you so much for the encouraging words in my case i started with a bad occlusion that braces made kind of worse aesthetically speaking and the only way to fix is having maxfax . i was really happy when i first got them but as the years have passed i have become less and less enthusiastic over the braces. i been so worried about the whole ordeal and the maxfaX that this past week i had nightmares about it, i dream that i was being sedated than that later on when the DR started cutting the jaws with a drill i got off the table and left. (i cancel the surgery this year because of the retrograde that you mentioned) sorry for my random writing when it comes to this topic i just cant think straight lol.

No, you'll feel BETTER than ever when you look in the mirror after your max fax!

Did you ever feel like you were going through an ugly phase? It sucks and I hope it's not a permanent thing. Cindy. I can relate. 2010 was the worst year of my life and I feel like it aged me a lot, so I've felt like I've been in a "surface looks" ugly phase. For awhile I was very fixated on my flaws and did not realize I was ignoring the other 80% of me. Since then, I've been reading books on the brain and healing like "The Brain that Changes Itself" & "Healing Toxic Thoughts" and been working on diet with a class using "the Body Ecology Diet" as a text. I have a wonderful Louise Hay mp3 that is just subliminal affirmations of love and self worth and I listen every day. I swear it's having an effect. :) It's called "Self Esteem Affirmations" and can be found on iTunes, audible.com, amazon.com... All of these are bringing back my confidence, joy, motivation and inner glow. Now I still want my face work, but I feel less ugly than I did. I don't feel I "must" have the face work. I just want it. I say when we feel ugly on the outside, there are a lot of things we can do to improve how we look from the inside out. After reading what one person said was a study about ugly men failing with women, it seemed the study was more about men who wanted casual sex or overestimated how much a woman liked them failed. There was a woman at my first graphic design job. She was quite big boned, and not attractive in a tradition sense. But she dressed really sharp, and she was so funny and confident and unselfconscious.....she really projected an air of "I'm attractive" and I tell you, I was very attracted to her. Just thoughts. I hope you feel better soon.

Yeah I need to get back into the inner work. I've tried to find a therapist for months to help support me in this area but have not found one I connected with.
My therapist retiring years ago was somewhat detrimental. I haven't found anyone since and I do need the support.
I'm sick too at the moment (bad cold) and New Year's Eve is always challenging.
I recognize I'm stuck in patterns that I seem unable to break out of. Feeling pretty hopeless at this point.

I think I saw that brain book at a chiropractor's office. Maybe I should check it out. Thanks for the book mentions.

I think it is probably true - if a generalisation - that the people on the board underestimate their attractiveness. We are a self-selecting bunch after all. A lot of people IRL get it just as wrong in the other direction.
