What should I do about my problem with SI scars?

I used to self harm and I have really noticeable scars. I often get depressed because I feel like I shouldn't even try to get in a relationship with Any girl i know even if i know i could because she'll be weirded out or some thing when ever she sees my arms. What should I do In that situation if there was anything to make her not think its so wierd because I'm tired of this and really need a confidence booster.

    I am a girl and have really bad scars that i know will never fully go away, I have never had any issues with people looking down at me or being super weirded out. Like the first time people see them they are a bit surprised but after that they accept me as i am. So I don't think you need to worry about this too much. Though the tattoo idea isn't bad at all :) but if you don't want to do that just talking with her about it could help too. good luck to ya.

    Well, I've seen that a lot of people that used to self harm get it covered with a tattoo. That would be a good idea (: but remember that since your arms are already scarred, it's going to be more painful.
