Many people will say, just accept yourself as you are, but sometimes you may not like a particular feature about you. What's wrong with wanting to change that feature? In my case, I love my face but hate my flat chest. I'm so tired of reading that it's best to just learn to love yourself. What if you absolutely hate a particular feature? How do you learn to love it? It's akin to telling someone who hates their job, to just learn to love it.

I want to love it, but I know that if I change it, I'll feel so much better. I believe I will be so much more beautiful, to myself and therefore I don't see a problem with changing something that you do not like about yourself, to feel more confident.


She is a popular vlogger who has undergone breast augmentation:




Does she look unhappy to you? Definitely not.

I agree, but sometimes I'm my own worst critique. For some reason, I judge myself so harshly, but at the same time, I'm afraid to take action. I would love to have breast augmentation, but I keep worrying about what others will think. I shouldn't care about another person's opinion, I should focus on my own happiness.

Perhaps if we saw the model off camera (and not being paid to smile), in a candid shot, it would reveal more of her attitude. There are many so-called physically attractive people who are miserable.

Jim Carey's beautiful wife recently committed suicide.

She is not a model, she's a youtube vlogger, who has a great life and is very happy with her breast augmentation.

Blogger or model, she is still posing in front of a camera.

One thing to consider: if her so-called beauty is the catalyst for her happiness. . . if she were to become seriously ill and lose her looks, or much worse: be disfigured in an accident, then what? Bye-bye happiness?

Never forget that most 'happiness' is a temporary emotion based on a specific event; being content with who you are and your life is more rewarding.

I think it's easy to be happy with implants right after you get them, or at least after you've healed from the surgery. But they don't last forever and some women have to have them removed eventually because of complications, and then they're left with scars or sagging that they wouldn't have had otherwise. So you have to ask yourself if you're ready to have a lifetime of maintenance for your implants.

Also, if you haven't had children yet and you plan to, your breasts may change a lot then and you may be happier with your natural size than you are now.

Big boobs don't equal automatic happiness either. I have a big chest and it's not the greatest thing...my back hurts most of the time, I have to buy huge ugly bras, my shirts fit funny, there are exercises I can't do, plus gravity is just not kind to big boobs.

Thanks for your response, but let's be honest, what are the chances of that happening? Surely, it could happen, but why even think about that?

I think it's important to develop yourself and genuinely be a good person too, but this doesn't mean good looks are pointless.

Online people often state, just love yourself, don't worry about others, but offline it's a different story.

The vlogger admits that she went from being the "ugly friend" to a beautiful woman.
