What is your opinion? I am 150-152 and I feel short. I’m 15 years old. I feel like this makes me look like a baby and ugly on most clothes.

At any rate, clearly I had changed a lot in those 2 years and he sure let me know it. Those were the days before the Internet, when teenagers did not look like 25 year olds. We didn't know how to dress or do our makeup or do our hair. It was the rare beauty who was naturally gorgeous, who looked great in jeans and a T-shirt, no makeup, with hair that was smooth and silky even after sleeping on it wet. The rest of us looked like we were put together by a committee. The overuse of hairspray alone destroyed the ozone layer, and that's why the Earth is dying now.

Good luck out there, and remember, true beauty comes from confidence, and confidence comes from making mistakes and refusing to give up. 💋

Case in point: When I was 17, I began dating a guy who was living with a boy that I had had a few classes with when I was a freshman and sophomore in high school (ages 14–15). Apparently when the guy I was dating mentioned my name, this boy said he couldn't believe that he would date such an ugly girl.
