Anonymous asked: Ok thing is that everytime i've been asked on a date (which isnt much) it's been as a joke and it doesn't help that im plus sized so now im afraid i wont be able to tell if they mean it cause in my head i'll just think they mean it as a joke. I dont need a partner but I do admit I would like one (or the thought of one since ya know no date ever) I'm working on my self esteem issues but yeah

I’m so sorry that people have been so cruel. Don’t let these things get you down or get in your head. People are mean, and awful, but they do not speak the truth. Nearly everyone I know has dealt with this sort of thing at some point– feeling less than, being teased, and having low self-esteem because of it. It feels like you’re alone right now, but you’re not. Continue working on your self-esteem and love yourself. Everything else will fall into place.
