I dress like a loser because I am afraid to look good

[mndigi]

I tend to wear the most plain looking clothes, even stupid looking clothes, like a standard long shirt pulled out and trousers. I feel ashamed, anxious and shy to wear clothes that I have been said to look good in, like T-shirts, or one short shirt which I have which apparently has a "good shape". Basically, I run away from positive attention as much as from negative attention. But then I also regret it when people, females to be precise, ignore me when I dress like a loser. Or sometimes some men look me over derisively, probably mocking my dress sense.

Does any one feel any thing like this?

I know what you mean.
Its like i dress a certain way because most people were I am doesnt and i think i look better. Like I cant wear what most people wear around here because i would feel weird. he though with you its kind of different.

Oh my god yeah. I wear the same clothes for like a week, and it's just black sweat pants and a plain colored t-shirt. I can't wear what I actually would want to wear, which would be really interesting stuff, because I'm afraid of how it will be perceived. Moreso than that though, I am convinced it looks horrible on me.

Seriously though, I've always been afraid to dress any particular way, I think because I don't want people to stereotype me or lump me in with a particular group of people- I don't want to corner myself as being a certain type of person, because I guess I haven't figured out what type of person I want to be yet.

In the cold you are most likely to find me with a black or white hoodie ,blue or black cap and jeans,in the summer t-shirt, cap and jeans,I dont feel confortable wearing anything else, I get to anxious.

My wardrobe consists of jeans & T-shirts of wich 65% are probly Chicago Cubs related...i guess if nothing else it will tell people I like the cubs & they will feel sorry for me & understand my pain ..cause I think almost everyone in the states knows what its like to be a Cubs fan...even if they arent one. "Maybe next year"... "ahhh its early guys..its a long season"...heard that so many times too

Really the more i think about it...i think i relate to the Chicago Cubs...they always come up short & lose it in the end..the happless losing Cubs....ahhh I can relate....I wonder sometimes if some of the specialness would go away for me if they finally did win a Championship...i know crazy thinking process huh....& im getting off topic a bit..but hey I wear alot of cubs T-shirts.

I don't even wear T-shirts, much less jeans like you folks. I once got disillusioned and angry with the world's superficiality, of it wanting to look good and act good. Maybe because my own attempts at it were eaten up by my fear of failure. Since then I have consciously wanted to look very ordinary. But if I didn't also want to look good, I wouldn't be posting here. I am again in a dilemma and mental conflict like in many other instances.
