Why do I not have any confidence?
I have grown up as a chubby kid, and I wasn't that attractive either. Although my dad says I was, I don't think his opinion is valid because I'm his child, his creation, etc. Now I think I have a pretty face/hair, but I'm still very insecure about my body. My BMI is "a healthy weight," but I still don't think my body is attractive. My dad said I would've been better off if I was born ugly so I wouldn't be crying over little things like weight. "If I was ugly I would have a reason to cry." I have looked online for ways to feel better about myself, but none of them seem to work. It feels like I am lying to myself when I try them. I just don't understand why I cant get over my insecurities. Is there something wrong with me?

4 AnswersPsychology1 decade agoCan you help us clean the white film off of our car?
My mom and I were finally able to pry away my dads DISGUSTING car from him, and now we are trying to clean it. We took it to a professional and they weren't able to get everything clean. On the paint, windows, and mirrors, there is a white coating on the car. Its dry, almost like a stain really. I think the guy at the cleaners described it as "water spots," but its worse than anything we have ever seen. We have tried CLR, but it leaves a bad film and we aren't sure what it does to the finish. Do you have any suggestions?

4 AnswersGovernment1 decade agoIf dreams are considered symbolic...?
In class today, the teacher said that dreams symbolize something else (waterfall= wetting the bed, jumping= overcoming fear of heights, etc.). If dreams symbolize things, then what does making out with someone symbolize?
