    Why do we do it to ourselves??

    Bank Holiday Sunday = Jaks night......

    Decide I need a night out as Ive had a pretty quiet, naffy Christmas and New Year apart from a couple of decent drinking sessions around friend's houses - I luv my friends!!

    Anyway....... getting ready for Jaks I decide that I look like a big, fat, ugly, abnormally tall, weirdo in everything I try on.
    So now Im sat in front of my lappy in my PJ's having decided its far better on the world not to subject it to seeing me looking so rough!!

    Pah!!

    Why is it so important for you ladies to put so much emphasis on how (you imagine) you look to others. I'd hedge a bet that you no doubt look fab. Us chaps have it cornered, we just dont give a stuff

    Just get out there & go for it!

    i've been feeling rather large and frumpy recently, totally peeing my bf off as i wont even let him hug me in bed atm

    sometimes anything anyone else says to you doesnt matter, you've decided on how you feel and nothing will make you feel better other than a nice big tub of ben and jerrys and a sloppy film, and then you feel guilty cos u finished the tub of ice cream and it starts all over again *sigh*

    First thing i do on thursday when i get back to glasgow, is head to the gym for a good old work out!

    im with 0id, i dont give a stuff about my appearance

    generalisation i know, but from my experiences.....girls and that wash their hair almost every day....do it up before going out, put their face (of the powdered variety) on in the mornings - my sister spends 2 hours doing her hair before going out on the town...washing, drying, straightening, styling geez !

    then out comes the make up, another 20 mins, if your lucky


    then theres me, mom, cya later goin down the pub. job done

    Get in the shower and do my hair, takes me all of 15mins in a mornin, I don't make a huge fuss about what I wear no matter where im goin tbh as jeans and a t-shirt is always reasonably acceptable, I think some women do put waaaay to much emphasis on looking absouloutly perfect before they leave that house, personally I prefer a slightly more natural look to women

    tbh knox, half the time when i do it i'm not trying to get perfection, i just decide im ugly and lanky n minging and sit in a huddle crying. lol.

    Most ladies do it, they're fine untill they stop to catch a glimpse in the mirror n then its 'omg i look hideous!!'

    LOL - Yep thats it exactly... not looking for perfection, like you say just catching a look at yourself and thinkin you look awful.
    Its deffo a girlie thing, its like having a brief lapse in self-confidence and no matter what anyone says you're not happy with how you look so you feel all negative.

    but then there are the odd days where you do have a "i'm looking ok" day.

    not very often in my case tho. (i have serious self confidence issues sometimes)
    (it also doesn't help that it is impossible to get a decent photo of me)

    I'm with all you other girlys!

    I think the difference is that when we (men) see ourselves in the mirror and think OMG!! How fat am I!, we get depressed for a few seconds, then amuse ourselves by doing the truffle shuffle- that funny dance the fat kid in goonies does, and then compound the fact by going out anyway and drinking beer. The hard bit I find is buying clothes, that really gets me down,
    Not around too often!
