So I'm 26F and I've never had a boyfriend. My teenage years were rough : I reached my definitive height (6'1) at 14, I was scrawny and unattractive. During my early 20s, I learned how to take care of myself and I had a huge glow up. I gained some weight and curves thanks to the gym so I'm not bony (but I'm still very thin), I dyed my hair blonde, I learned to dress cute and to do my makeup well. Women tell me I'm pretty and beautiful, but still, no attention from men...

Did you manage to find someone who is attracted to you despite your 'flaws' and accepted that you were a Marfan? I'm so afraid of being abandoned. I don't want children because of this, and I'm not sure I'll ever find someone who loves me... but I'd at least like to have some short-term relationships to experience what it's like and catch up, to feel like other girls. I grew up feeling 'abnormal,' my parents were stressed because of my disease, and I've been bullied to the point that I don't feel worthy of love. In a world where short, busty women are preferred (hello Sydney Sweeney), it's difficult to feel desirable.

EDIT : It always amazes me to see men think they are so indispensable by recounting their own experience or giving their opinion on what I have experienced, when I specifically asked for testimonies from women only... thank you to those who responded kindly though, it makes me very happy.
