CRUSHES

 

I’m really uncomfortable about my chest. I’m 11 and already in a C cup. I think the only reason guys like me is because of my breasts.

I usually wear baggy t-shirts instead of the cuter tight ones other girls wear. I don’t know what to think of myself because I really hate my chest.

You should love yourself and think you are a wonderful person who happens to have started developing early. This awkward stage will soon be behind you because everyone does hit puberty. And believe me, late bloomers are self-conscious as well.

These are tricky years, but I promise that boys will grow up, too. For now, hold your head high and pay attention to the people and activities that matter to you.
