I have been with my boyfriend for 8 months now and he was infact "my first" it seems dumb to me to be having this problem at 18 but im averege size not anorexic but not fat either, I used to be though which is a big reason I believe I have this problem now.. I want to know if it is normal that I am so uncomfortable being naked infront of him.. I have been naked infront of him before but it felt too forced and I felt super discusting. I feel that my insecurities are just in the way of my full enjoyment of our sex life. He recently noticed my discomfort when he intended to take my shirt off and I just wouldn't let it happen I even almost started to cry because of how uncomfortable I felt. I defenitely know im not ugly I know I'm pretty but I just dont feel sexy even though he tells me I am and I'm also scared that he'll get tired of me feeling this way. Is this normal? and is there anything I can do to just feel comfortable?

    you are not alone! A lot of girls feel that way.

    Enough that it's normal.
    The problem is that even if he finds you beautiful, that will not suffice, no matter how often he tells you so.

    You will first have to come to terms with yourself.
    Yeah, no one's perfect. Who cares. ACCEPT that you have areas you like, and others you don't, but they are all you, and they are all fine.
    If he wants to take of your shirt and see your upper body/boobs naked, then obviously HE likes them. No need to worry about him. This is only about you. Acknowledging that other people find you pretty may help, but first and foremost, you have to learn to accept yourself as a whole. Every little part of you that sums up to be you.

    It's normal to be insecure, but it sounds like you're more insecure than average. Have you considered talking to a professional about this? Otherwise, talk to somebody you trust about it, and maybe discuss your insecurity with your boyfriend.

    Also, "anorexic" is not a body size.
