Read Surveys (By Question)
82. Did anyone ever say anything to you that made you see yourself differently, on a physical and especially sartorial level?
Yes
(Which is why I'm here)
A few weeks ago a friend asked "I have to know, why do you always dress so terribly?"

a few times in my life, people have guessed my weight as much lower than it is. a couple people have called me small or skinny. i don't see it, so it trips me up.
I think the compliments that my clothes/appearance elicit usually affirm the way I like to see and think about myself, which is nice. It helps me be kinder to myself.
People have complimented my style which makes me feel like I am doing something right although I feel lost sometimes.
My mother told me I had my grandmother's hips. It still hurts years later
Yes on a physical way
My college roommate Lizzy told me "you're a very flamboyant woman" when I was 21. She's right. My frame, my style, and my bold silhouettes are
