Scars on back, how to make excuses to keep shirt on when dating someone

((( I'm so paranoid about them, they're noticeable.

If you're actually "dating" and get to a point where your shirt is coming off (other than swimming, etc.) neither of you should care at that point.

If it's more a quick hookup, then what's the point? You both know what you want and scars shouldn't get in the way of that...

Perhaps try bio-oil i think its called.

But if you're dating someone, take it slow so they accept you then it won't matter. For hook ups perhaps let them know in advance, but some might find it attractive anyway. x

I do not know how you got the scars but they are part of you now, though it is not important to show them off and I understand your hesitation about others seeing them, you should come to terms with the fact that it is who you are now. Embrace yourself and your physique the way it is, I'm sure that you have some extraordinary qualities that make you a great person.

Just tell them that they are battle scars that u got while in the military, yes?

Well, depending on how old the scars are, you could apply cocoa butter, shea butter and Vitamin E oil on them to reduce them, but it's a long process...

If I may suggest, why not allow the scars to become a talking point between the two of you? It'll allow you to become more accepting of your body, and you're date to learn more about you.

As noted above, you don't mention the source or nature of the scars. If they are acne scars, you could go to a dermatologist and see about dermabrasion. If they are surgical or accident related, they could be reduced probably....the list goes on. More importantly, things that are important to us, others will likely not be bothered by, if they even notice.

Show us we want to see how bad it is and there are some guys who love scars

Acne, and I know of treatments I just can't afford any. My dermatologist only mentioned laser but privately

I have bio-oil and I've tried dermarolling, wart remover, at home chemical peels, it sucks

The pic I have doesn't show them properly but...

If you can, take the photo from further away.

I have a skin disease and absolutely know what it is like to die a virgin.





No wait, I had two pity fucks.




Other than that, I never had any meeting that I could call a date

What is the specific skin condition your dermatologist has diagnosed you with?

I have TERRIBLE skin! Especially in the winter, my hands get very chapped and red, stress induces rosatia that tends to flare up along the bridge of my nose, and I have VERY light psoriasis that shows up on my thighs and upper arms during the winter months. They're all under control and I have a skin cream for them, but I have no problem discussing it. With my current boyfriend, the morning after we first slept together we were in the bathroom getting ready for the day and I started putting on skin cream, and said something to the effect of "ugh, this is so annoying to do this everyday..." and I got the natural "Whats that?" response. I was able to say what I was doing and way, and then when I had a flare up a few months later, I was able to tell him that I was in a flare up, and that it would dissipate soon enough. Be honest, set up an opportunity to tell your story so you can be comfortable, and control the message. You'll be fine!
