Why do teens do teens think people is going to like them for the way they look?
Well most but not me. I really don't care if people say I'm fat or skinny, I just wan't to feel good about myself and not struggle when looking for close that can't fit. Since nowadays the best clothes is pretty much only made for thin people. I also do it healthy, I dont go over board trying to look anorexic, I eat, workout, and control my sugary cravings. It's not that healthy to be over weight if who ever thinks that, but each there own have control over there bodies. good luck
Reply:Umm, what?
Reply:hm...most teens are influenced to think that way by the media and societal pressures. the media often depicts beautiful women or handsome men with a thin waistline or with abs etc. friends and other people at school often pressure people about the way they look. almost all teens try to impress others by looking great. it's something they do...

Reply:People may not like them, but if they are presentably and not a freak, they will at least feel open to try.
Reply:well most teens do only like other teens for the way they look.. its all immaturaty they have yet to know about what lifes about to come ahead of them.





i learned that the best looking boy could be so rude or immature that he would mean nothing to me..


and a girl could be so pretty and skinny but if she's selfish and stuck up i wouldn't want to be her friend.
Reply:I don't know, kids nowadays seem to have a large problem with looks.
Reply:Because they have yet to know who they are- The transition from going from a child to a pre-adult is a difficult stage we all have to go through- looking back I didn't know who I was and felt that people would not like me for my personality, I didn't have much of a personality then- just tried to go with the flow and fit in. So instead of focusing on the worry of if they liked me, I felt if they liked how I looked, they would like me inside too.


Today, I am- let's just say over 30- I still care about how I look but if someone doesn't like me for who I am, I couldn't give a rats behind to it.


It isn't easy being a teen- and todays world, my heart goes out to them because I think they have an even harder time than we did. I have a 12 year old, I already see the difference as when i was her age and now with what she deals with.


Similar but more difficult with trying to find out their mission, purpose, who they are, what they would like to do someday or be etc... isn't easy.
