My ideal "me":
>long, blonde hair down to my tailbone
>clear, bright, pale skin
>cute small nose and youthful features
>white teeth
>thin but also muscular, knows self-defense
>really cute otome/mori/90s wardrobe
>great at uni, never misses a class, well-liked by my professors
>good friend and family member
>part-time job on the weekends that doesn't stress me out
>constantly drawing and creating cool things
>knows how to play the keyboard
>runs a sick d&d group
Yup, that's my self-insert Mary Sue right there. To be fair, I'm working really hard on achieving all these things. I know I have a long way to go. But I also think that the only things that aren't achievable are the things that require surgery, just because I'm not sure if I want to go under the knife.
I wish everyone the best in making themselves the best person they can be.

It all boils down to health, really, and being consistent with it. While I can see myself doing most of these things, if not all if them, it will take a few years time. For now, I've been tackling my tendency for eating mostly garbage sugary, over processed snacks. Also, being more mindful when eating, so I don't carelessly overeat. One day at a time.

A fairly realistic "ideal me" (in that it's technically attainable).
>undergrad degree in chem engineering from the state uni I'm currently going to
>boyfriend who cleans up nice and listens to music with me and supports my goals
>5'5" 125 lbs, muscle tone
>good study habits
>clear skin
>a wide circle of acquaintances and a small circle of close friends
>finally figured out a makeup look that works for me
Things I wish I could change but am unwilling to get surgery for
>fix teeth (they're straight but shorter on the right side, making my whole smile crooked, and not in a cute way)
>shrink nose, or at least shave the bridge down
>get wider hips and a narrower waist (would like to be pear).
>more interesting colored eyes, like hazel or dark green
>symmetrical jaw
Reality
>wavy dark brown hair (I love my hair at least)
>dark brown eyes
>olive/tan skin
>no boyfriend ever
>struggling in school bc poor study habits
>oily skin (getting better at regulating it though)
>handful of close friends and handful of acquaintances, only feel lonely most days as opposed to every day
>barely do makeup because too insecure about it (fill patchy spots in eyebrows, conceal active zits, done)
>average sized but pretty cute boobs (30DDD)
>really asymmetrical jawline
All in all I'm not too unhappy with my appearance. I just don't get validated enough, I guess, which I know shouldn't mean that much to me but it does.

I guess I only really like my hands, eyes and feet. I am working on getting healthier via diet & exercise, but unless I get surgery I'll never escape my "feminine" figure. I've had boobs since I was 10.
I've thought about getting a nose job or breast reduction in the future, but unless I face some kind of complication it's hard for me to justify it to myself. Plus I feel like it would be so alien to me, seeing a visibly different feature in the mirror for the rest of my life.

I'm basically the complete opposite of all of this. I'm very slowly working on improving myself, but it's hard to do when you're a NEET poorfag with crippling depression and anxiety.
Good luck to everyone who is working hard to achieve their goals!

Whiter teeth, my gaps closed in (but i like the main one)
The tip of my nose defined and smaller
Shoulders a little less broad.
Naturally arched eyebrows like marilyn monroe's
2 dress sizes smaller (roughly 25 lbs lighter)
Breasts down a cup size or even 2. (i'm a 34 D but a petite frame)
Longer lashes
Evened out skin color, i have discoloration under my arms and lots of childhood tomboy scars on my legs. My ass is darker than the rest of me too.
Flat stomach, perkier butt, toned upper body.
5'7" and/or longer legs. But it's not a dire need.
Almond shaped eyes, perhaps eye color 2 shades lighter. If I really wanted to customize myself.
Thankfully though I've accepted most of what I can't change. Invisiline, diet and exercise, makeup and a minor nose job can handle the rest.
Oh and my ears were tragically torn as a teenager so I'd get them fixed so I can wear earrings again :((It's an expensive procedure though.
My personality is fine, I just wish I could communicate the thoughts in my head better. I can be charismatic but lately my speech is super erratic. I want to exude confidence and sex appeal. But I look like I'm 12.
OH, hair down to the small of my back. Preferably wavy but again, "things I can't not change". I want the length in any regard though. So saving up for decent extensions since I've tried every hair care routine in the book.
Also rich. Much more rich. With a finished degree. a career and a sense of direction.
(I secretly wish I possessed an acting ability as well. Or a voice that made babies cry from joy.)
Fluent in french and russian.

>>168549Yeah I use eyelid tape every day. Contemplating surgery eventually because I've watched my grandma putting tape on her eyelids every day and it is a hassle. But I don't know.
I should probably get braces too. I'm just a wuss about it because I hear it hurts but you're right that I need to do something about that or stop whining.
My hair is already chest-length, but I want to have like really long hair, like down to my butt. (I'm aware of how stupid that sounds, and it'll probably be such a pain when it does get that long.)
I don't not socialize because of the lack of attractiveness/confidence thing though. I just feel intensely uncomfortable and anxious around too many people and I want to go back to my dorm and do my homework. I can carry on a conversation fine, just feels like shit I have a test to study for/not interested/mind is blank and on super-driven Adderall mode.
My face is pretty average on the whole. Just my body is gross. But yeah, that's my own fault for not eating very well and not working out.
