When the world thinks of you as a "strong girl"

[little_bow]

I've been feeling this way for awhile and I know I can't be the only one in this boat so figured I'd start a forum to talk about it with others like me.

 

I identify as very little; love coloring, stuffies, Disney all those things but I look like a stronger women that would be very independent so that's how the world sees me. I just wish I had the genetics to be 5'2" and cute. It's like I'm living in the wrong body. My Daddy also has other baby girls who definitely look more little and cute than me so it's extremely hard for my self esteem.

 

Just needed to vent and express self doubt; and here's a place you can too if you want.

I think theres a forum for venting ingeneral, but i like the idea of a place for venting over little topics specifically. And i inderstand what you mean about your body not matching how id like it to be. Someone told me they thought i was finally getting taller, and i got upset for a while afterwards.

It's like when you need to feel little you can't; someone will treat you big because of your appearance. It's like I was born in the wrong body.

I have seen a lot of posts about 'not so little littles' 

 

I would read some of those if you haven't already, whether you are referring to your height or weight. Being comfortable in your own skin is something that can be challenging when you want to fit the 'idea' of a physical representation of a little. But littles come and all shapes and sizes. 

 

Polyamory can be a beautiful thing but if you're constantly comparing yourself to others, that relationship might be counterproductive to your mental health. I would suggest self-care. I know it can be hard, it's something I struggle with personally. 

 

Put on some cute PJs, make some tea with a stuffie, watch your favorite movie, do things that make you feel little.
