| Okay. So. A friend of mine is having serious confidence issues. She keeps asking if I think she's fat, If I think she looks ugly etc. I don't know if she's looking for pity or what, but I do know that she's really unhappy. So does anyone have any suggestions on what I should do? I'm at my wit's end. |

| Just tell her she is not ugly ect., and make her feel happy. If anyone makes fun of her, you can stand up for her. |

| Okay. Tell her it's your opinion and she can't change what you think of her. That she's not fat or ugly. |

| It isn't. Tell her that and she will shut up, and accept who and what she is. ________________ Kevin Jackson, Unclaimed 13 Alonso Andrade, Hermes 15Tom Salmon, Apollo 12Zack Turner, Osiris 18Jason Zimmerman, Dionysus 16John Tron, Eirene 14| Spoiler: | | | . |

| Tell her she isn't fat or ugly, and make sure she knows you're there for her. Tell her you'll be her friend and try to have some patience with her. Just be there to support her. ________________ Jazmine/Hades Veshtov/Hecate Marcus/Apollo Ellie/Aceso Toph/Geb Zayden/Anubis Antony/Minerva(3rd) Kelli/Chione Jacqueline/Hecate Carter/unclaimed Gabriel/Adikia

| Keep reminding her that she isn't fat or ugly every time she says that. It'll make her feel better that she knows someone is there for her. |

| Tom was using the tough love method-- ONLY USE IT WHEN EVERYTHING ELSE FAILS. What I think you should do is tell her she can't be perfect. Point out one little flaw she has, and then tell her your's. Always remind her that she's beautiful in every way, even if she isn't perfect. And she shouldn't change herself just because society disapproves. Convince her to accept who she is and care less about what other people think. ________________ Crystal|Nemesis17Jaden|Triton18Katara|Triton18 Keiara|Triton18Melody|Charites15Caitlin|Apollo15
