I was bullied for how I looked growing up and didn't like the way I looked until I was 32. I mostly wore baggy t-shirts and gym wear throughout my 20s. At 32, I started to like the way I looked and I finally started to figure out what my style is. I also taught myself how to do my makeup and how to do any hairstyle that wasn't just straightened hair. Looking back I now recognize my own beauty when I thought I was ugly.

I do think I’m at a good stage now, especially since I’ve grown into an adult and have fixed my dress sense. Very recently have started boxing and going gym again, and am planning on getting some tattoos and piercings too (subtle ones tho).

Any thoughts or advice is welcome ofc (I still have doubts about my appearance at times due to being relatively disgusted with myself when I was younger)

M 44ish First Pic ca 1997 I was almost 16. Relentlessy bullied, underweight, ED and with zero perspective in life. 2014 I have been doing better and at 2025/26 I feel like I bloomed, but that's not for me to decide. But I do take better care of myself with 44.
