    In addition to my anxieties and obsessions about my appearance, I also suffered terribly from unrequited love. Strangely enough, despite my dagginess and poor self-esteem, I still received my fair share of attention from boys. Unfortunately, however, this attention was all from boys who didn't interest me in the slightest.
