At what point do you divulge information about which you’re self conscious or insecure? Aaron Marino of alpha m. shares a viewer’s email about his indented chest cavity and breast bone about which he is super self-conscious.
The viewer says that by the time he gets intimate, the girl doesn’t make a big deal about it but it’s a big deal to him. The viewer also doesn’t like to take his shirt off at the beach. Aaron says it’s not an issue to discuss with the person when you first start dating. The less of an issue you make it, a less of an issue for the person you’re dating. Insecurities are always a bigger deal to to you than others. Also, humor is the best way to handle an uncomfortable situation to soften the blow.
Aaron comments that accepting the hand that you’ve been dealt is vital. Aaron’s always been self conscious about his ears. He was called names, and he was self conscious to the point of wanting plastic surgery. As he got older and more secure, he’s not concerned and accepts how he looks. So, when should the viewer bring up the subject about his chest? What advise would you give him?
