    I saw photos of my BF's ex ~~ where has my self-esteem gone?

    I've just sussed out pics of my BF's ex and she looked really gorgeous and had amazing boobs. Mine are quite a bit smaller and it's left me feeling rather inadequate. I've always loved my body and was quite happy with my boobs....until now. I've also lost a bit of weight lately, and they've gone from a D cup down to a C... but I don't even have cleavage if I put on a push-up bra. Rationally, I tell myself I am being silly, but the insecurity won't fade.
    Does anyone have any advice that can give my self-esteem and self-confidence back??

    Welcome to AFW.

    Life's a pretty precious and wonderful thing. You can't sit down and let it lap around you....you have to plunge into it.

    We are living on this planet as if we had another one to go to.

    No advice for you I'm not in your age group..not a formal thing but there is an introduction part that we commonly use before we get into the serious stuff just talk a little about yourself first we like to get to know you first before we give advice.
    TO KNOW SOMEONE HERE OR THERE WITH WHOM YOU FEEL THERE IS AN UNDERSTANDING IN SPITE OF DISTANCES OR THOUGHTS UNEXPRESSED----THAT CAN MAKE OF THIS EARTH A GARDEN.

    Hi Lolleen, well you really need to tell yourself that your BF has great taste! If his ex was a stunner then he probably wouldn't be with you unless you had something really great on offer Give yourself a little credit.. How we see others isn't necessarily the way that others do. My sisters husband makes me GAG!!! BUT, she is constantly saying she feels blessed to have such a handsome man.. Beauty really is in the eye of the beholder So stick out that C chest, hold your head high and work it with a smile on your face because confidence tends to accentuate your good points
    lala la la lala la la... it's Elmo's world.....

    Couldn't agree more....you have something that makes your BF want to be with you. Be proud of that.
    I am beautiful inside and out so I should love myself unconditionally.

    Yes good advice Rachel..
    At 19 I was an A cup and proud of it.



    Be kind, be thoughtful, and do things that make you feel proud of who you are.

    Re: I saw photos of my BF's ex ~~ where has my self-esteem gone?

    Lolleen. I'm 24 and have DD to E size boobs.


    And I HATE IT.

    They are nice to look at sure, I'm not going to lie I'm not particularly skinny but blokes of all ages drool over my boobs because they are big but not saggy or anything.

    BUT IT"S NOT WORTH IT.

    I hate them so much I can't explain. I get neck pain and back pain and shoulder pain from them. I can't buy shirts that fit my waist and my boobs so all my clothes are baggy. I cry when I see them in the mirror because I want to be able to go for a run without having to wear 2 sportsbras. One my size then one a size smaller to hold them in place so it dosn't hurt when I run.

    I look at girls with smaller boobs I just want to hate them because you can jump on a trampoline or run or wear nice clothes. You are not on anti inflammatories and pain killers all the time because of the size of your chest.

    Just because one ex partner of your BF was big chested dosn't mean they will all be. Not that I would call a C cup small anyway. If I could be any size that's the size I would choose. The grass is always greener on the other side, you want bigger, I want smaller. You just need to look at the positives of being a C cup and there are a lot of them. And look at the rest of your body too. You're thin and pretty and it's obvious you have something that not even big boobs can compete with () your boyfriend is with you, not with his ex. He's with you for a reason.

    To me even a C cup is a thing of wonder, as I was an A and actually an AA for a good part of my life. Menopause gave me boobies for some reason, and on my scrawny chest a C cup is certainly cleavage.Pity my decolletage is wrinkly now....
    I wouldn't worry about your BF's ex, she's just that - an ex.


    Hey!!! I'm here! Here on your screen!!Look at me!! I'm dancing!!!
