How Many Likes Did I Get?

I know how you feel. I have friends who gain tons of likes over an ordinary photo but when i posted a really nice photo up, i got no likes. It feels pathetic, i know. Facebook has really made my self-esteem hit rock bottom. But all i can say right now is know that likes will not benefit you in anyway. Think of how lucky you are of having a good husband that appreciates your appearance. Remember this, you're not alone :)

Your husband's response is typical of a husband. Men don't understand why or how a woman's appearance is tied into her self-worth. They just assume that because you're with them, you stop caring about how attractive you appear to other people; after all, they have to see you everyday for the rest of your life and their opinions about how you look should be the only ones that matter, right? Wrong. Doesn't work that way.



Attractiveness is a societal, therefore life advantage (watch a short, fat, ugly balding woman try to make a decent first impression on ANYONE and you'll know what I mean), and I'm pretty sure you have a life outside of your marriage. No one else has the close relationship your husband has with you, so they won't be looking at you from his perspective. The rest of the world evaluates your appearance with a fine-tooth comb by comparison. Putting up pictures on Facebook is just inviting people to do it more!



You're still young enough to fix whatever you think is wrong with you. I did and discovered I wasn't nearly as ugly as I thought I was. Did wonders for my self-esteem, too, even though there are still times when I'm too hard on myself. But FB, in the meantime, will only continue encouraging you to compare yourself to other people. Get away from them and do what's best for you.

Hi ma'am...Posting photos,yearning for "likes"...seems to be self-boasting and they are attention-seekers...What really matters is our closed one's love,the one who knows who we really are and we must feel happy for that one person in whose eyes we look beautiful..i think you have one such person....then why sadness...you are lucky..
