Well from the sound of your description your entering puberty. don't worry,those things will pass.Its one thing to not like your appearance, but its another thing to not to like yourself. Yeah, so maybe you have those physical conflicts with yourself. But according to psychiatry, there is what we call Man's defense Mechanisms. I need not to elaborate there, but i'm going to focus on the so-called COMPENSATION defense mechanism.This means that a person compensates of what he or she thinks is inferior to herself. An example is a girl who has a hunchback in junior high. She may look weird, but she compensates by getting A's in all subjects.Okay, maybe straight A's is hard, but compensation goes a long way, not only academically but also other aspects in school, at home or in the community. Depending on what's your specialty. I know you have something that other are not good at.In terms of boyfriends, a boy who goes out with you only because you're pretty or attractive is not worth a lover.I our hard times now, what people are looking for are those that would love you and really care for you for who you really are...Not only physically. You're 17 right? Don't worry your Guy will come in time.Wait until you're older, if physically you have problems, time will heal that when you're a woman.Hehehe...Hope I helped
